Bogalusa enterprise. [volume] (Bogalusa, La.) 1914-1918, 1915-02-04

Louisiana as a whole is interested
in the Growth of Bogalusa for this
citv exemplifies a spirit that belongs
to the Pelican state.
During the last week BosaluSa
has proved her future. Instead OF
the business depression usual
throughout the country because OF
the war, the city is showing re-
uarkable building record and new
institutions are up-springing there
weekly.
Something of the prosperity OF the
citv is registered in the fact that the
worlds largest lumber mill, the
Great Southern, has continued a
Boealusa its operation day an(
night without the loss of an hou
during the entire period of suppose'
General business depression. In

LISTEN DAUGHTER.

Listen Daughter. Your mother
tells me that you and she have
been talking over the matter Of
getting a hired girl to do the house
work. She also says that she feels
sure that you two could get along
with the work all right, but that
the young fellow who is coming
around here evenings will think
we are not swell enough if he
knows that you and mother do the
homework. Don't you worry
about that. If he thinks such
stuff, he is not good enough for
you. But he looks pretty good to
me and if he is half the fellow l
take him to be he'll think all the
more of you when he knows that
you not only know how to cook
and bake and mend, but that you
are on the job. So let's put up a
little game on him. The next
time he comes, receive him in your
kitchen apron. Tell him to amuse
himself in the parlor for a moment
until you finish manicuring the
supper dishes. 1 won't be here,
you know. He picks out my lodge
nights to make his calls. So I
won't be in the parlor to embarrass
him. Then, along about ten
o'clock ask him if he wouldn t
like lunch. He'll insist that it
will be too much trouble, but you
tell him he may come along and
help. Any man in the world will
fall for that. He'll trail along
after you to the kitchen. You'll
have the stage all set and the
proper costumes ready. The cos
tunes will consist of two aprons,

TUESDAY was Ground Hog Day
and it is presumed his nibs saw his
shadow when he emerged from his
hole in the ground to take the
spring-time observations. The
sun shone all day and the general
outlook had the appearance of
spring. However folklore has it
that we will have six weeks more
of winter on account of the sun
shining on that day. In this coun-
try it is always safe. to presume
that the woodchuck is right but a
day like Tuesday leads anyone to a
forgetfulness of the few cold days
to follow. This country in our
opinion was not on the map when
the ground hog day was thought
out and therefore we are not in on
the lore concerning it. The wealth
er is satisfactory in Northern Min
nesota either summer or winter.

MORE truth than poetry was en-
bodied in the talk made by Geo. l..
Brozich, cashier of the First State
Bank, at the Firemen' banquet a
week ago. Mr.. Brozich spoke on
Finances and during his re-
marks took occasion to deplore the
lethargy displayed by the larger
part of the citizens of Ely on pub
lie matters and mentioned the for
nation of Commercial Club as a
cure. Mr.. Brozich is right. There
is absolutely nothing the matter
with Ely in either a business or
financial way. There is however
considerable 4 don't give a
d-n" spirit manifest when it
comes to matters beneficial to the
whole community. Naturally, there
are a few who feel that they are
butting in but are needlessly alarm
ed on that score. Again there are
others who cannot see anything ex-
cept what originates from them
selves and as they never originate
anything, are in consequence blind,
or might as we'll be. The towns
and cities that boast of live Com
mercial Club, you will notice, are
up and doing and are getting some
where. During the past two years
Ely has developed considerable pep
and is at present considered one of
the best towns in the state. Get
together and keep it in the way
marked out by getting interested
in public affairs. Let us go after
something, and get it.

A bill will be before the legis-
lature to increase the salaries of
the county commissioners of St.
Louis county and should be passed.
The present compensation is $1,000
per year with very short allow
ance for expenses. This salary
was set in 1907 and since that time
the county has increased from an
assessed valuation of 1884 347 $50
to 1928, 1854, $40. All other county
officers salaries have been increas-
ed during this time but the county
commissioners have been forced to
transact business and handle an
immense amount of more work for
the same old price. 1t must also
be considered that the efficiency of
the board has increased in proper
ton to the amount of the business
transacted. The road levies alone
in these years have increased from
$114,S3O to $5OO,526.

WE hope Tower will land the
fish hatchery for Lake Vermilion
and keep this body of fsh-hlled
pike in the fsh-filled class. A few
years more of the spawn-stripping
trips of the Fish and Game Com
mission and Tower will need go to
Glouchester for its fish supply.
Around Ely we are not as yet at
fected in the manner as the Com
mission has found such an abund-
ant supply at Tower. A few years
more and the Ely lakes would also
come in for their share of spawn
robbing.

he'll put it on. If there is any
thing a young fellow will fall fog
its the kitchen apron and a job
doing nothing but keeping out OF
the way. Then you get the lunch
ready. Tell him to slice the bread
and no matter how he butchers 1t,
tell him its fine. Ask him if he
can make a salad dressing. If he
says he can, let him go to it. And
you praise it to the skies. Ask
him for the recipe. Tell him
you'll keep it a secret. What
would you like for a wedding

New Priest Ordained

Rt. Rev. Bishop A. J. Glorieux,
of Boise, arrived in the city last
Friday evening and on Tuesday
morning completed comforting
the orders of priesthood on a
young man at St. Michael's Mon
astery west of town. The orders
were conferred as rapidly as it is
possible for them to be given,
beginning on Saturday and end
ing on Tuesday, when the young
man was finally admitted into

Will Goetz Dies Suddenly

Charlie Goetz, who had been
working with the Hale thresher
for the past week, received a
telegram Wednesday conveying
the sad news of the death of his
brother, Will, and left yesterday
morning for their home near Pa
louise to attend the funeral. The
cause of death was not given and
Mr.. Goetz was at a complete loss
to understand what could have
happened, as when he left home
a few days before his brother
was in the best of health and
doing the work on the farm OF
his parents.
Will Goetz will be remembered
by many of our citizens as being
the young man who pitched for
our base ball team during the
summer of 1912. He was quiet,
unassuming young man of the
best of morals and habits anc
made a large number of friends
here who will sincerely regret
his untimely departure. The de
ceased was a young man abou
25 years of age and the last whom
one would expect to see takel
suddenly away. The Chronlcl
ioins with other local friends o
the deceased in extending heart
felt sympathy to the bereave'
parents and relatives in thel
hour of sorrow.

Ed. Van Carlen, an escaped
convict from the Walla Walla
penitentiary, who was arrested
in Lewis county last week, es-
capped from the Nezperce Jail.
Saturday evening by cutting
through the ceiling in two places
and walking away. A travelling
guard had arrived from Walla
Walla to take the prisoner back
to that place and he escaped
after the guard had called on
him at the Jail. A $10O reward
is offered for his recapture.
The body of an unknown man,
apparently a tramp, was found
lying near the railroad track at
tunnel No. 7 below Reubens We'd
nesday. The man had evidently
fallen from beneath the train
where he was riding and was so
badly injured that he had only
strength enough to crawl from
the track and lie down on his
bundle, where he expired. His
right leg was broken and there
was a severe cut on his head and
his body was badly bruised.
Nothing was found to identify
the remains.
The badly mangled remains Of
John Onby, a boy 16 years of
age, were found Wednesday
morning at the rear or the Ira
Gentry orchard near Kendrick
by the young son of Mr.. Gentry.
Ihe lower limbs or the deceased
were stripped of their flesh by
animals and the remains were al
most unrecognlzable but it was
finally decided that the body was
that of the young man who left
his home about June 1st with the
intention of going into the mount
aims on a hunting trip. AS he
was in the habit of going away
and returning at will nothing
was thought Of his absence. A
charge of No. IL shot which had
entered the breast was the cause
of his death and the county au-
thorities believe that death was
accidental.

I'm the evening we will pre-
sent the best carnival features to
be secured in the northwest and
will also stage Lewiston of Fifty
Years Ago. which we believe
will be one of the biggest draw
ing cards. This will be present
ed in large tent and during the
early hours of the evening a high
class program will be provided.
Back of the show features will
be the settings of the games and
amusements found in Lewiston
during its pioneer days. The
games will be in operation but
the money will be of special is
sue and procurable only at a bank
conducted within the tent. 1t
will not be redeemable but will
buy anything offered at the pio-
neer stores or amusement places.
A platform dance will be con-
Quoted within the tent and there
will be the pioneer saloon but it's
beverages will be confined to
sodas, lemonade and other drinks
in keeping with the times.
I'm the organization of the
program we have received the
endorsement of every interests
and the ministers of Lewiston,
Charleston and the surrounding
country will informally open the
fair on the afternoon of Sunday,
Oct. 3, with a sacred concert to
be held in the city park which
will be open to the public. The
best talent will be used in the
presentation of this program ano
the offering will be one of much
merit.

the fair an industrial institution
of value to the entire region anC
feel the program now arranged
for this year will give the asso
citation the largest patronage i
has ever enjoyed"

Pat Nash Kicked By Horse

J. V. Nash received word Tues
day afternoon that his brother,
Pat, had been severely kicked by
a horse at Whitebird and would
have to undergo an operation at
once. John and Father Jerome
left at once by auto for White
bird, arriving there when the
operation was about completed.
The injured man was kicked by
a horse which he was leading in
to the barn and was struck in
the abdomen, the kick rupturing
a bowel. DR.. Moore was called
from Grangeville and performed
the operation and at last reports
the patient was resting easy and
stands good chance of recovery
unless peritonitis developes. The
injured man ran a hotel at Fem
a couple of years ago and has
many friends on the prairie who
hope for his speedy recovery.
His brothers are still at his bed
side and will remain until the
crisis is passed.

Twenty Thousand Blu. Daily

Grain continues to pour into
the local warehouses at a great
rate and the roads are lined with
teams coming to town with mon
ster loads or returning home
after more grain. The bulk of
the grain is going to the Farmers
Union house where the buildings
are already so congested that
grain is being piled up outside
the buildings until cars can be
received to carry it to the coast.
Although large addition was
lust recently completed to this
house, all of the three buildings
belonging to this company are
now practically full and it is
doubtful if enough cars can be
secured to accommodate the
grain that comes in daily.
Both the Vollmer and Robin
son houses are filling up rapidly
and it is conservatively estimated
that between 5000 and 2O,00(
bushels of grain is being receiv
ed here daily-and the hauling il
only nicely started. Verify, Cot
Etonwood is getting to be som,
