FOR WOMEN OF COLFAX
They FIt rhe Blot ks Under Evils Of
Th:s small Louisiana Town -
Shameful Conduct of Men.

Colfax. La. population l.0i9, has
some women residents who are hum
mers. \ press dispatch tells what
they have done:
Through the courageous influence
Of the WOMEN of Colfax-than whom
there are no better in the universe
this town can at last hold its head up
among decent people and bravely de-
fy any criticism that might be eX-
cited by residents in other towns that
have absolutely not as much reason
to be proud of themselves as Colfax
has TO be proud of itself.
1t is to the lasting glory of Colfax
that its women residents. scandalized
and made TO worry by the actions of
some OF the men who live here when
carnival company came here re-
Gently. Elected last night the passage
OF 4 city ordinance prohibiting the
performance here Of eircuses. street
eernivals. vaudeville acts and min
strel entertainments whose appeal in
even the slightest degree depends on
the presence of women in the exhibi-
tions.
The way some of the citizens of
Colfax. particularly some of the mar
ried men. acted when the last show
came here was the last straw. Men
who had acquired the art of freedom
from embarrassment by attending
other shows where women perform
ers came out on the stage and kicked
up their legs. sat in the very first row
at this last show, which had a lot of
pretty girls in it, and laughed and
nudged each other, and winked, when
the theatrical women smiled at them
and by other coy ways tried to make
believe they thought the men of Col
fax were regular devils" like the
men with high hats who hang around
stage doors in the city.
The men didn't know they were
only dupes of these women who do
that in every town the show goes to.
How would shows get along that
didn't do that? 1t was just plain
temptation and nothing else. Some of
the men spoke to these theatrical
women afterward and they spent
money like drunken sailors ashore
after a long, long time at sea.
The women of Colfax tried to close
their eyes TO these orgies and revels.
but they couldn't do it. They re-
membered what happened to Pitts
burgh when some of its millionaries
got to flying around with stage
women, and they decided ii was time
to step in and keep this happy and
prosperous town, with its unblemish-
ed history and honorable traditions,
from going to wreck and ruin, and
so 200 of them signed a petition de-
manding that the civic authorities
take the measure they took to stamp
out vice and corruption.
This ordinance may take away
some of the spirit and hiliarity of life
in Colfax. but If that's the sort of
thing that would bring people to Col
fax, just looking for good time"
and not helping to develop it, then
we don't want that type.

HIT HIM WITH AN AXE

This Is More Merciful Treatment for
Husband Than Nagging Him-Ten
Commandments for Husbands and
Wives.
The Rev. Frank E. Rideout, pas
tor OF the Second Baptist church at
Bridgeport. recently issued ten matri-
| monial commandments for husbands
and ten for wives. If followed, he
says, they will insure perfect happi-
ness.
For Husbands.
Thou shalt not think that thy
self are "It".
2-Thou shalt not praise thy
neighbours wife; praise thine own.
3-Thou shalt not be stingy with
thy wife.
Thou shalt not share the love
for thy wife with the booze shop. She
deserveth it all.
5-Thou shalt not keep any secrets
from thine wife. Secrets breed sus-
picion and wreck confidence.
6-Thou shalt not refuse to talk
with thy wife after the days work is
done.
Thou shalt not fail to provide
life insurance for thy family.
S-Thou shalt not scold thy wife
when the meat burns. Blow up a
powder mill instead.
9-Thou shalt not fail to kiss thy
wife goodbye every morning.
10-Thou shalt not forget through
all the years of thy life that thy wife
whom God has given thee as thy
companion, is thy superior
For Wives.
Thou shalt not be spendthrift.
Do not squander thy husbands mon
ey.
Thou shalt not talk shop when
thy husband returns at night.
3-Thou shalt not fail to have his
meals on time.
4--Thou shalt not quiz thy welded
husband. Be adroit and he will tell
thee all.
5-Thou shalt not nag thy welded
husband. Hit him with an axe. II
is more kind.
6-Thou shalt not fail to dress up
for thy husband as thou didst before
marriage.
Thou shalt not try to fight thy
husband. Crying will fetch him SOON
er.
S-Thou shalt not expect thy hus-
band to apologize-even when he is
wrong. Let ii pass.
9-Thou shalt not hesitate to as
sure thy husband that he is the great
est man alive. and that thou dost adj
mire him more than Wilson, Roose-
welt or Hughes.
10-Thou shalt not remind thy
husband what great sacrifice thou
didst make to marry him.

Monroe Defeats Waxhaw.

The Monroe high school basket
ball team played its first game of the
season with the Waxhaw high school
on last Friday, which resulted in a
score of 80 to IA in favor of the Mon
roe boys. The game was played at
Waxhaw and was a hard fought game
from beginning to end. The playing
of Captain Hinson for Monroe was
the most spectacular of the entire
game. He made 20 of the 80 points
scored by the Monroe team. The
playing of Goodwin and Crowell was
also a feature OF the game. For
Waxhaw the playing Of Ernest
Vestol was an outstanding feature.
This young player scored every point
made by his team. and is easily one
of the fastest high school forwards
in the State.
The Monroe basket ball team is
rather light in weight this year and
will have to depend upon speed and
team work to win games, but the
team as a whole is composed of fast
players and can be counted upon to
win games.
The county high schools have or
ganized a High School Athletic AS
ISOLATION for both boys and girls, and
the Monroe boys and girls are
anxious to make a good showing In
athletics this year.
The Monroe high school will meet
the fast team of the Wingate school
on the local grounds next Friday.
The line up for Fridays game was
as follows:
Monroe-Hinson. r. f.; Crowell, |.
f.: Goodwin. c.; Ayers. |. g.; Austin
and Stewart, r. &.
