did not vote against the senate amendment that
all German language papers must print an Eng

Indeed, the senator FASTENED to say he desired
the disloyal papers suppressed.
About the most disloyal papers printed in the
United States have been copies of the Congress
sional Record in which Vardaman has inserted
some of his speeches.
Few Of the most rabid copperhead papers have
gone as far as the Vardaman kind of senator's and

DEAR EDDY" WILL BE AT THE
EVANCELINE NOV. H.

A delightful treat is in store for
theatre goers of Morgan City in the
coming to the Evangeline Of Very
Good Eddie" the smartest and
brightest musical comedy of the
season. 1t will be presented here
for the first time Monday Novem-
Der IL tn.
The book of every Good Eddie
is by Philip Bartholomew and Guy
Bolton and the lyric by Schuyler
Greene, with the music by Jerome
Kern. The fact that every Good
Eddie" has real plot and delight
full music, shows that plots and mu-
sic in musical comedy productions
are not inimical but on the other
hand greatly add to the charm of
such play.
The story Of the two young mar
ried couples starting out on their
honeymoon on a Hudson River
boat. Some difficulty comes up
about the luggage and one of the
husbands and one of the wives go
ashore to straighten out the diff
Guilty. The boat pulls away from
the dock separating the newlyweds.
At the first stop the boat makes
the couple on board leave and try
to get back to their respective hus-
band and wife. But there are no
boats or trains leaving and they
find they will have to spend the
night at the Rip Van Wrinkle Inn.
Next morning to the Inn comes a
very mismated pair Of course, the
newlyweds to first reach the hotel
are taken for bride and groom and
that makes great deal of fun for
the audience. The dramatists have
widely avoided any doubtful or
double meaning and the play is
wholesomely comic. Mr.. Barthol-
omae's farce is full of humor. and
his characters are exceedingly
funny.

Red Cross Has Enrolled Is
600 Nurses

Fifteen thousand nurses have al
ready been enrolled by the Ameri-
can Red Cross, many of whom have
volunteered for war service, &C
cording to statement made public
at Red Cross Headquarters today.
About two thousand have already
been sent to Europe. 1t is estimat-
ed that the present registered force
Is sufficient to care for an army of
a million and a half and approx
mately a thousand nurses are being
added monthly.
"It is of the greatest importance
that able and educated young wom-
en should be urged to enter the
regular training schools and take
he usual course in order to fit
themselves fully for nursing" said
Miss Jane A. Delano, Chairman Of
the National Committee on Nursing
Service. "While our present needs
are being met, the burden of the
war will increase rapidly. It is
highly desirable that the ablest,
most experienced nurses should be
released for service behind the
lines, and constant supply Of
younger nurses, thoroughly trained,
will allow these older women to
leave their posts in this country
without danger to our own sick"
The National Committee is also
enrolling public health nurses with
. view to protecting them from ser
vice as bedside nurses where their
special training would not be fully
utilized.
The Red Cross requirements for
nurses have been somewhat modi-
fled in order that, if needed, thous-
ands of additional nurses may be
made eligible for enrolment with
The American Red Cross and avail
able for call should the necessity
arise.
The principle change is to re-
duce the lower age limit for espe-
cially qualified nurses and to place
.cn the eligible list training schools
for nurses which are recommend
ed by state boards Of registration,
even though the schools have a
daily average Of somewhat less than
the required fifty patients.
In order to increase further the
available supply of nurses the
schools for nurses giving a three
year course may be requested to adj
vance the date Of graduation of !
pupil nurses, perhaps to the end of !
their second year Of study, should
he exigencies Of war make such |
action seem desirable.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
ON TICKS

Answers, by DR.. w. H. Dalrymple
Of L. S. u, to some of the questions
most frequently asked on the cat
| tie tick situation are given below:
Do cattle ticks have any effect on
the milk production Of cows?
Ans. Federal experts have tested
this question, and they report that
cattle which have been freed OF
ticks have made an increase in milk
production of from IS to AZ per
cent, depending on how grossly they
have previously been infested If
we should strike an average of 25
per cent, it would mean that the
dairyman who continued to feed
ticks on his cows, was throwing
away an equivalent Of one bucket
full of milk out Of every four which
! his cows would produce under tick
| freedom.
What effect do the ticks have, if
any, on the development of beef
cattle?
Ans. They prevent development,
because great deal Of the blood
which the feed makes, and that
should be used to nourish the ami
NAL, is appropriated by the ticks,
and the benefit of the feed is,
therefore lost to the animal.
Are all the other states dipping
their cattle every IA days?
Ans. Yes. Some of them adopted
the 14-day periods at the beginning
of the work, and others that had
commenced with the 21-days have
since abandoned the longer inter-
walls for the 14-day method, as the
results have been found so much
more satisfactory.
1t is believed, then, that it is pos
sible to eradicate the cattle ticks
from a parish, or even the state, if
all the cattle are dipped in the
standard arsenical solution every
Ia days for one season?
Ans. Yes. 1t is being done in
other states, ard in parts of this
state at the present time. How
ever, to be able to accomplish it sat
isfactorily, it will require coopera-
ton on the part of every one con-
cerned and interested in the work
When once the State is tick-free.
will there be any danger OF re-infes- }
tation?
Ans. None. The federal govern ,
ment and the State will see that rig
id quarantine is maintained against .
the introduction of any tick-infested
cattle. This is provided for now in
Act No 10 of the General Assem-
bly, of 1916, and by federal regula-
toni. S. U. Press Bulletin.

THE HOME GUARD
by Thomas Watson Bell of The
Vigilantss).

The armories are empty, great
barren barns, where have echoed
the sounds of drilling feet, of sharp
commands, Of clanking feet. They
have gone, officers and men and
equipment-gone to fight for their
country, to hold back from us those
nenacing, monstrous German lines.
Who will take their places? Op-
portunity invites.
Serious problems may confront
us here at home; there may be
grave duties for militia to perform:
someone must see that law and or
der are maintained.
Many men active in mind and
body but who, on account of age,
family ties, or slight physical de-
fects, have been debarred from ser
vice abroad, are anxiously inquir
ing, "What is there for me to do?"
The answer is, ENLIST in the
nearest Company, Battalion, or Reg
ient for State Service. Should
\ critical moment arrive, you'll be
ready for action"
It is chance for ex-members of
the National Guard to come back
strong and for the boys who may
be called in the future draft it af
fords the best possible training in
the rudiments of army life. 'Espe-
