HELP
SWELL PATRIOTIC FUND

The Ball given by the Terpsichore-
ans at the Pine Tree Inn for the
benefit of the Patriotic Club was a
decided success, inasmuch that a
eoodly sum was realized. The fol-
lowing letter speaks for itself:
BogaluSa, La, July 5. 1916
Dear Mrs. Sullivan:
1t affords us great pleasure to en-
close herewith check amounting to
$500, representing the net pro-
ceeds of our dance given last night
at the Pine Tree Inn, which we
cheerfully donate to the Patriotic
Fund. The attendance was unu-
sualIy large and everyone had a
great time. We, indeed, feel very
proud to be able to assist in this
splendid cause and wish to enlist
our services towards anything we
can do in the future for the enlarge.
ment of the Patriotic Fund.
Respectfully yours,
THE TERPSICH0REAN.
V. PICO, Chairman of Committee.

sPEEDER; BEWARE

Several owners and auto drivers
are entirely ignoring of the ordinance
pertaining to speed of automobiles
in the city. Several accidents have
been narrowly averted and the lives
of many are in daily peril from these
wreckless drivers. The ordinances
pertaining to speed, lights and I'M
necessary noises are all very plain,
and those caught violating them in
the future will be summarily dealt
with. While the authorities have
been very lenient with the violators
until now, it is best for all concerned
that those guilty of ignoring the
ordinances be dealt with according
to law, and it is therefore up to all
owners and drivers to see that the
law is obeyed.

These are, therefore, perilous days
for Germany; for whether or not she
can hold her own frontiers indefinite
ly against the onslaught of her
enemies, steadily growing in military
power, the re-conquest of the terri
tory she has occupied and the driv.

nothing could be more significant OF

Earlier in the war when Germany

the western front against the com

SOUTH NEED NOT FEAR
|NFANT|LE PARALYSIS
Experts Declare That Dis
ease Is Rare In South
ern States

Louisiana or the south generally
has little to fear from infant paraly-
sis, which is daily snuffing out so
many little lives.
Unlike the north which is suffer-
ing from this epidemic the people
below the Mason and Dixie Line
have enjoyed considerable freedom
from this destroyer of children.
The organism which causes this
disease has never been isolated, as
far as know" said DR.. Gallant, as
sistant superintendent OF the Chari-
tv Hospital at New Orleans. Some
years ago, DR.. Simon Flexner, of the
Rockefeller Foundation, announced
he had discovered the germ, but he
has not exhibited it. The symptoms
of the disease are chiefly these: The
patient shows gastric disturbances.
is inclined to be extremely nervous.
is dazed by sunlight, and becomes
very restless. Later thete is a stiff
fleming or hardening Of the muscles
which produce a sort Of paralytic
state. This denotes a development
| of the disease, and the patient
should be sent at once to the near
est hospital.
AS to the treatment, it varies
with the patient Electric massage
is one of the means used to combat
the disease, but it would be diff
cult to name a sure cure. The con-
dition of infantile paralysis eener-
allv extends over a long period Of
time, and each sufferer should be
treated symptomatically."
DR.. G. C. Boudousque, however,
names a specific cure for the dis
ease. Although other physicians
would not indorse it, they admitted
it might be efficacious It is the use
of a series of colloidal silver salts
baths, both externally and internally.

LEGISLATURE ADJ0URhs

Two hundred and eighty acts, a
total short of that of the 1914 ses'
sion and in excess of that of 1912,
is the product Of the 1916 session Of
the General Assembly which closed
Wednesday. In 1912, 258 acts were
written on the statute books. and
in 1914, 3l2 were enacted.
The session broke all records for
the last day Of the session. Through
a rule which prohibited introduc.
ton of bills during the last twenty
days of the session, both houses
were able to catch up with their
work during the closing week, and
before midnight on the fifty.ninth
day had cleared the state except
for odds and ends. Thirty minutes
suficed for disposition of all bills
pending and the balance of the day
the two chambers marked time
awaiting signature of the bills by
the governor.
At 6 o'clock Tuesday Governor
Pleasant had completed consider
alton Of the 285 bills sent to his
desk. Two hundred and eighty he
had signed and five he picked for
pocket veto. The two chambers
met just after the dinner hour, re-
ceived the messages of the governor
and adjourned.

l19 AND LEANS Of bOGALUSA
! I1P|Ay BALL FOR PATRIOTIC CLUB
Promises TO BE interesting, Full OF Fun And
Biz Crowd Is Expected. Will BE Worth Going
Miles TO See
At 2:30 P. NJ. next Saturday after.

At 2:30 P. NJ. next Saturday after
noon the fat men on one side. and
the lean ones on the other, will line
up to play what undoubtly will be
the best Cor the WORST game of
base bail ever witnessed on the
local grounds.
The keenest rivalry exists between
the two factions, and arguments
pro and con are heard on both sides.
Sleuths that have been put out
by both sides brings the information
that both teams are indulging in
secret practice. each trying to slip
something over on the other, but at
the present writing it seems as
though the leans are the favorites if
for no other reason than that they
can circle the bases in faster time.
But then on the other hand the fats
cover so much more ground get iO
that it will be hard for their oppon-
entS to find spot on the field that
is not covered.
The line up on both sides is made
up of men who know the game Cat
least they think they know it, and
it is fully understood that the
umpire's decisions are final, unless
there be a grievance, and if he can.
not be convinced through argument
that he is in the wrong, nothing
heavier than pop bottle may be
used to make him see the errors of
his ways. Under no circumstances
may the bats be used in settling an
argument, these being on the
grounds solely for swatting the ball
not the umpire.
1t is expected that record break.
ing crowd will be on hand to root
for their respectives sides, and in
consideration that the entire pro.
ceeds will be turned over to the
patriotic club, no doubt ground
rules will be necessary.
Mrs. W. H. Sullivan, chairman of
the patriotic club assisted by various
committees will have charge of the
disposition of the tickets and the
gate at the ground will also be care.
