Opportunity
BY Walt Malone


They do wrong who
When once knock and fail to find you in;
For every day stand outside your door,
And bid you wake, and rise to fight and win.
Wall not for precious chances passed away
Weep not for golden ages the wanel
Each night burn the records of the day
At sunrise every soul is born again.
Laugh like a boy at spendors that have sped,
To vanished joys be blind and deaf and dumb:
My judgments seal the dead past with its dead
But bind a moment yet 10 come.
Though deep in mire wiring not your hands and weep,
lend my arm to all who say Il canl"
No shame-faced outcast sank so deep
But yet might rise and be again a mani
Dost thou behold thy lost youth all aghast?
Dost reel from righteous Reributons blOw9
Then turn from blotted archives OF the past
And find the futures pages white snow.
Art thou a mOurner? Rouse thee from thy spell;
Art thou sinner? Sins may be forgiven;
Each morning gives thee wings TO flee from hell.
Each night star to guide thy feet TO heaven.

men and girls of Bogalusa, we men
are indebted to you for many Of the

clean boys that will be a power for
good in the whole State.
In our City Government we have
all sorts of officers and commits

have all good mothers, but some
have been more abundantly blessed
with children than others. Some
have so many little folks to care for

line for side walks, cutters, curbings

was the outgrowth of a cement
gutter being placed on Columbia

that it will not be removed or
changed at a later date. Persons

An ordinance was also passed to

The question Of purchasing a

but no final action was taken. An

council and the matter may be taken
up at the next session. The salary

That more lives were not saved
was due to the fact that the vessel

and said she would make the doils talk
and passed her magic wand before
each girl and boy, and Immediately
they began TO jerk their arms. legs and
heads stiffly Before the music ceased
they all joined hands and were singing
and dancing. The pretty effect of this
entertainment is produced by the chill
dren acting very much like unjointed
statuary.
This entertainment can be made very
beautiful and attractive with merry
songs and dancing. The children should
wear Grape paper or cheesecloth cos
tunes and have their faces and hair
powdered white and the stage or room
must be decorated with white cotton
for snow and deliberately trimmed with
holly and pine.
A holiday party for large number
Of children might consist of an old
fashioned store. This store should be
made in the parlor and the children
given small checks representing mon
ey, with which they are to buy certain
articles. OF course each check will
correspond with number upon some
article, and all will be supposed to di-
vide what they get. There should be
big surprises in the candy boxes, jelly
glasses and bottles, and immense boxes
should contain popcorn. apples, candy
or kindergarten trifies. Some of the
largest boxes might hold little things
picked up in the ten cent store. The
