Facts and Figures

The question of pettionng the Parish School
Board by the tax payers of Caldwell, to order an
election to vote on parish wide school tax is now
being talked of by quite anumber ofinhuential ctl
zens throughout the parish. The promoter OF this
move was brought out in the communication The
Waterman published in it's last weeks issue, from
the pen Of one of the progressive citizens OF Cald-
WE'LL Hon. George T. Martin, who holds the posi-
ton as president of the Parish School Board, and
he with a number of others we have talked with
are to be commended for this step forward to
voluntarily jump in the band wagon and cham
plon the move in behalf Of the elevation OF the
schools in this parish, it will occasion, if success
fully carried out, which can be by the co-opera-
ton of the progressive ones Of Caldwell parish
The Waterman stands for the upbuilding and
expansion of Columbia and Caldwell parish and
will be found doing its part when it is for the
better interest of ALL We believe this move, that
is now on foot, in asking the School Board to Or
der an election, at near future date, to take the
senses of the voters of the parish, as to whether
parish wide school tax be levied, is one OF the
most progressive steps that could be made by our
influential citizens This year the special school tax
that has been paid by the tax payers for the past
five years. in the different wards, will expire.
1t is the desire of every parent in Caldwell, we
believe, to want to give their children an educa-
ton, and to pride themselves in saying they will
support any move that is to put all the schools on
an equal and making all schools full term
nine months-and having better Teachers and
their prorata of the taxes increased, than to have,
as in the past, some of the schools five and seven
months.
The Waterman heartily endorses this move,
and believe the intelligent citizens of Caldwell will
fall in line and assist this move to success. AS we
have said before, one of the best-if not the very
best-Iegacies parent can leave his offspring is
a good education-to have prepared his mind for
successful battle with the world. Your sigma
to this petition and vote for the aid that will be
asked in this case would be big factor in secur-
ing this advantage for your son and daughter.
Education in its broadest sense, is the key
that will open the door of opportunity and usher
our sons and daughters in to the era of plenty.
For the benefit of the tax payers, we publish
below, table giving the number of pupils attend
ing school in the different wards and the amount
in dollars and cents that each ward is now get

AS on the previous evening, when
Germany was presented for the first
time, a good-sized part of the audience
was pro-German in it's sympathy and
the vivid motion pictures of the
Kaiser's fighting forces circling, whirl-
ing and maneuvering with clock-like
precision, white -clad legs rising and
falling with a unison like that of a
giart centipede, brought no few thrills
of patriotic pride. War may be what
General Sherman said of it, but II

districts which have been the battle

glimpse will be given into conditions
as they are to-day. after the gray
horde of Germans has swept over the
entire land. And in the conclusion OF
the tour will be a journey through
picturesque Holland, quaint old land
of windmilIs. dykes and flowers.
The travelogue, it is promised, will
be one of the most interesting and
instructive to be offered in the series.
Miss Lemer to Play
AS an added attraction at each
travelogue next week will be special
music by Miss Sara Lemer on the
violin and Charles Mackey on the
piano commencing at 1880 and con-
tinuing until the travelogue ends. 1t

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condi-
ton is perfectly natural. 1t is just as
natural as 1t is for old people to
walk slowly. For age is never so
active as youth. The muscles are less
elastic. And the bowels are muscles
So all old people need Cascarets.
One might as we'll refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels
must be kept active. This is i'm
portant at all ages, but never so much
as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh ply
sizes. Youth may occasionally whip
the bowels into activity. But a lash
can't be used every day. What the
bowels of the old need is a gentle
and natural tonic. One that can be
constantly used without harm. The
only such tonic is Cascarets, and they
cost only 10 cents per box at any drus
store.-Advertiseme

WATERWAY
IS URGED
Lakes to Gulf Plan
Talked Before
Board


CHICAGO, March 31.--A Demo
cratic governor and Republican
United States senator joined today
in an urgent plea for the construc.
ton of an eight foot Chicago-to-the.
Mississippi waterway. The speakers
were Governor Dunno. OF Illinois. and
Sherman. Of the same state. The oc-
casion was meeting OF the Chicago
real estate board.
The cost of such waterway, ex-
planned the Illinois executive would
be two and a half cents per head to
the people OF the state. After the
construction, Dunno declared, the
tolls and the electrical power which
will be developed at Joliet and Starv-
ed Rock, will make further taxation
unnecessary. Benefits TO shippers
not only OF Illinois. but OF states con-
tiguous to the lakes. Dunno declared.
have been pointed out before.
Senator Sherman agreed with Gov
ernor Dunno that the bill now under
consideration at Springfield should
be passed. He explained that he op-
posed former waterway plan be-
cause IL provided for a 20-foot canal.
