The Christmas tree exercises ct the

grown to be a permanent institution
In our community. For years the
teachers and children Of this school
and their friends, have gathered to-

Of giving instead Of receiving and the
plan proved so satisfactory thak It Dc
now an esta bl1shed custom with

Next Wednesday aight they Will
hold their Christmas tree exercises

District Attorney Brock Will
Notify All Saloon Men
To This Effect.
WARNING TOBE GIVEN
BEFORE NEW LICENSES
ALI Citizens Should Be Sub
ject to the Law and Sa-
looms Not Excepted.

1t had been rumored that very
shortly there would be strict en-
T forcement OF the liquor laws of the
State in the parish of st. Tammany.
Investigating as to the truth OF this
rumor, 2 representative OF The st.
Tammany Farmer called upon Dis
trdct Attorney Brock and asked him
IT the statement was true. Mr..
Brock stated that the situation was
such - comp elled action on his part.
There were frequent complaints OF
automobile parties coming into town
from pr0hfSkftd0n districts. and at
tdmes these cars were recklessly driv-
en- end the occupants noisy, making
it unsafe and un pleasant for other
cars on the road, especially when
they w4re occupied by ladies. That
he believed, IL the laws were On the
statute books they should be enforc-
ed, and as m officer ,of he law he
could not make = distinction between
6a3oons. and ether business. That 1t
was, his intention to write to each
saloon Keeper and notify him Of his
intention to enforce the laws, so that
thfs might - cons etdered when ncens-
20 were taken sout for the year
coming.
II; is-akatSd that recently the Gov
sfnor Of Mississippi wrote to Gov
e1nor Pleasant Ut Louisiana, COM
Dlafning Of the violation Of the Sun
day Law IN = town Of st. Tammany
paTish. whereby larEe quantities Of
HQuof found It's way into Mississippi
towns. This letter was sent to
Jud9e Cartsr BY Governor Pleasant
and came t0 The notice OF District
Attorney Brock.
So It may be presumed that in
1917 there Will be no more opening
of saloons on Sunday, nor OF any
places of business prohibited under
the leW. Those who want to drink
on Sunday will have to buy 1t some
other day. Gambling or other viola
1dons of the law, We presume, will be

District Attorney Brooks position.
10 We understand It, is that he, as
prosecuting attorney, is sworn to up
hold the law. and that he will not
shirk his duty t4 this respect.

Fierce Fighting Develops From
Counter-attaCk According
to Report Received From
General Haig,
OTHER ASSAULTS OF
TEUT0NS ARE REPULSED
Operations on French Front
Impeded by Rain; Russian
Successes Bring Cars
Army Much Nearer KOyeI,

London, July ~ Nl:l0 p. nj
When General Haig's afternoon re-
port was dispatched from headquar-
ters in France. the violent fighting
which, developing from the German
counter-attack, had been going on all
night and had given the Germans
footing in Dclville wood and Tongue
val. still was in progress. The Ger
man attacks on the Waterlot farm and
other points were repulsed.
In brief dispatch tonight General
llalg announced that most of the
ground thus lost had been regalned
in both places and that the British
fire had dispersed the Germans mass
ing for a further attack on Waterloo
farm These dispatches seem TO con-
firm the opinions constantly express
ed by the correspondents at the front
OF the dwindling strength of the Ger
man countcr-attacks.
The operations on the French front
are stIll impeded by rain and COM
paratiye calm prevails.
Russian Drive Interesting.
The Russian operations again are
becoming interesting. The Russian
military critics dwell on what they
describe as "the mechanical regular
ty" Of the strategic and tactical blows
dealt by Russia on her various fronts
aud the absence of any indications
that the enemy forces are able effect
tyely to parry them. The recent Rus
sian successes have brought them
much nearer Valdimir- Volynski and
Koyel, and the German communica-
tons between Kovel and Lemberg are
threatened by the Russian advance TO
Stoyanoff and Sokal, preliminary to
the Investment of Lemberg.
In Pennsylvania the Russians have
obtained two important eastern passes
in the Carpathians, Jablonitza and
Kirlibaba, while they also hold COM
mand Of the Delatyn- Budapest rail-
way. Their cavalry Is moving in the
rear Of General Pflan2ers forces be-
tween Kimpolung and Kuty, ana ap-
parently the invasion of Hungary has
begun
According 20 one report, a Russian
force already is one days march into
Hungary, threatening the Austrian
rear in the mountains, The Russian
advance also continues successfully in
Asia Minor and It is reported from
Rome that the Turks again have
evacuated Kermanshah.
