Church is united in its purpose to

they are rather helpful. But we do
believe that there are sometimes tco
many OF them in one place, The
abandonment of some organizations

With giant power and fearless heart
Enriched by God thou shalt create

With health and wealth thy state

Rise-win thy spurs and conquer yet.
Hail Bancroft Palace, shed thy light!

The Washington leave out of sight,
Thou can'st the hotel trade command
Hail William Reilly and your no.

With outstretched hand you well
come every one
For with you we'd stake our very life
The best of hosts beneath the shin
ing sun.
Hail Hiram Dunn-wit, wisdom,
worth;

cheer;
We bless the day that gave thee
And twice the day that brought
thee here.

a revolver had been discharged, ap-

ing behind them, Ashley and Will
liams are reported to have run when
Stubs fell, having no means Of
protection. When the shots were
fired residents in that vicinity were
awakened and the family of NJ
Marx were among the first. They
heard groans and one of the boys
rushed to his assistance and by this
time Others arrived. The injured
man was taken to the hospital and
an examination revealed that he
had been shot through the left
kidney with a 80 special or "a
bullet.
According to the information the
police have in hands, Stubs had
quarrelled with another man early
in the evening but it was not con.
sidered anything serious as no blows
were even exchanged. Chief of
Police Magee visited Stubs at the
hospital and the injured man told
him that he was positive that he was
shot by a white man, and is said tc
have gave the names of two parties
which he thought might be guilty
of the crime.

Parish authorities could not furnish
relief or several days Miss Rowan
visited the home and found condi-
tons such that it is impossible to
describe. Two of the children were
brought to Boealusa. One was a
boy about 5 years old that appeared
to be on the verge of starvation,
His little body was clad with thin
and torn material and his body
seemed to be shaking from hunger,
His little arms and legs were no
arger than those usually found on
a two year old child. It was a case
that would arouse the deepest SYM
pathy from the coolest heart. The
little fellow, with his brother was
taken to a Bogalusa home where he
is being properly cared for while the
three older persons we're sent to
