DlRBARDUCA1E COMPANY
II Clam REYIVllc INTER.
EST m CANNING OPERA
TONS HERE

The Chamber Of Commerce OF
Morgan City and Berwick ID in re-
ceipt Of . letter from the Dunbar
Dukate Company Of New Orleans in
which they state that they are again
becoming interested in Morgan City
~ . canning point and that they
propose making IN inspection OF the
reefs and beds in the local tributary
territory. It seems that Secretary
Palmer Of the Chamber Of Com
merce has been sending data rels-
tive to present fish and oyster con-
ditions which has revived the inter-
eft Of the Dunbar-Dukate Company
and which may lead to thir making
use Of the canning factory on which
their lease is soon to expire. The
large building At the south end OF
the s. P. Docks on the Avchafalaya
was one time operated by this COM
pany but for nearly three years past
it has been idle and practically all
of the operating machinery has been
removed to other factories owned
and operated by the Dunbar Dukate
Company.
The building under lease to the
Dunbar Dukate Company is owned
by the City of Morgan City. The
lease to this Company is automati-
cally abrogated if the company al
low the plant to remain in non-use
for a period of three years. The
company has kept its lease pay
ments made up to this time and has
apparently thought it worth while to
keep their claim on the building
alive. In the meantime, operations
here have been stopped for nearly
three years, the machinery has been
removed and the company has been
operating in several other places
along the coast. They now claim that
the information furnished them by
the Chamber of Commerce is the
reason for their re-awakened inter
est and if they find that the terri
tory is as promising under a perso-
nal investigation as it appears in the
reports they have received they will
again operate their plant here.

Loeb has had many big features for
his popular movie house but few
equalled this. The terrors Of war

usually beautiful. Civilization pro-

His syss were blue, - baby blue,
His hair Wa yellow silk,
He whispered what his Mother
His baby need for milk;
He gurgled secrets, old and new,
Like Cherubs Of his ilk.
He told her he was by God,
From Heaven, where he grew
He waited from the Angel Squad.
To love Her, and be true!
His fluffy head began to nod
He kissed her cheeks with dew!
He va. . playful liAtls chap,
She called him "Lieber Fred";
He wore . quaint and tassled Cap,
A Roundabout Of red.
He leased the Cat from its Map
And took his Dog to bed!
His German Teachers taught him
HATE!
Which no man ought to know!
His DUTY was to Hold the Gate
Against . Lawless Foe!
Taught him to shave his simple pate
And walk the Goose-Step-so!
Down Belgium's Road the German
Hun
Come crowding in the Night
The Kaiser's-Teacher's work is done
The Sword and Torch is RIGHT;
He kills a Mother with his Gun,
Her Daughter with his Might.
Along the Marine, they get their due !
They stop! They stand! They fly!
And Lieber Fred begins to rue
The tragic Prussian lie.
A bullet comes from out the Blue!
And gives him time to die.
His eyes were blue, so baby blue,
His hair was Saxon gold,
He died the only way he knew,
The way the Teachers told
His Mother lost her Baby True!
He lost his Kaiser Bold!
GOOD Christ"-who died for Men
and Truth
Who died upon a Cross
Thou know'st this dead German
Youth
Was played with, Pitch-and-Toss!
A Pfennig, in the Game forsooth,
A Pfennig tossed as dross!
l can not hate this German clod,
Whose body, torn and rent,
Now bleeds out on a hostile sod
For Kaiser Bills content!
Bill formed a partnership with
God,
Without His Gods consent.
Bill formed a partnership to Kill,
To Conquer and to Rule.
He only Royal-Sealed the Bill!
Doth think he Gods a fool?
His partner is beneath the Hill
Crowned on the Devils stool!

He Is Willing to Meet Fulton After
Circus Season Closes.

Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. Jess
Willard today is willing to figh- Fred
Fulton for the heavyweight title, fol-
lowing the latter's victory over Carl
Morris. He is ready for the bou. as
soon as the circus season ends.
Jess was feeling so good over rec
ord breaking circus crowd Monday
that he announced his readiness to
take on Fulton, even before reporters
could put the question to him.
Fulton is a good, clean fighter. [
am glad he won the bout with Morris -
said the champion. Fred can fight
and is big and has a long reach. 1 am
sure now he deserves the right to
meet me for the title and 1 am more
than willing to give him the chance.
Morris has always impressed me as
using dirty tactics"
Willard says he is in fine shape.
weighing about $50 pounds. After his
experience as a circus owner, the
heavyweight champion feels he is
competent to promote his own fight
with Fulton.

American Training Camp in France,
Sept. At is announced that a num-
Der of British army officers will soon
be attached to the American expedi-
tionary force to assist in training the
Americans who will thus get the ad-
vantage of the best points of both the
French and the British. 1t is con-
sidered probable that many of the
British officers selected for these as
signments will be Americans who
have been serving in the British or
French divisions
American soldiers on Wednesday
will see men advance under artillery
barrage fire for the first time. 1t will
of course be only practice barrage,
but the French division training the
Americans will lay a curtain of fire
as if under actual battle conditions
and will show their American students
how closely infantry can follow a pro-
tecting wall of fire when properly
trained artillerymen are directing it.
