Brush On Upper Lip is Popular at Fort
 Roots

It is quite probable that the first photographs that some of the folks back home receive from their young hopefuls at the camp, will frigbten them quite to death. A thousand or so of the students at the citizens training camp have seized upon the opportur ity to raise mus taches. The hard part about raising mustache, they figure, is the first part, when people crack jokes about your upper lip being dirty, and about your third eyebrow and all that sort of folderoll. It is necessary to
 make few trips to town, until the mustaChe gets well under way, but, at any rate. a man can raise one of lem without having to live in an atmosphere of funny jokes while he is doing it. So they have all obeyed the slogan, Plant a mustache.

Fee Grabbing

Because a bad negro has been lynched, the occasion should not encourage fee-grabbing officers to proceed to fatten from the earnings of hard working ne- groes. Last Saturday night, 1t IS reported stool pigeon for depu uties went into a place where ne groes were standing around and begal to shake the dice. After a few passes crowd gathered around. Then the deputies came md there were wholesale ar .ests; and then there were set tlments at the magistrates of
 ce.
 The grand jury ought to call fr some of these magiste rial criminal dockets. And they might look into the allegation that certain upholders of the law sent out emissaries to encourage the violation and then proceeded to do a lot of arresting. The ne groes were not arrested for the purpose of stopping crap shoot ing. They were arrested in orr der to get from each one amounts running from S4 to $1o And this tax is usually borne b, some white man by whom the negro is employed, when he is caught. Commercial Appeal.
 The above brings to mind the unscrupulons methods used ir the Sims case in this state.

War s!EHect On Newspapers

There are some persons so CT roneously advised that they have said the newspapers wanted war s'so theycould sell more papers. 7
 Hopewell |. Rogers, president of the American Newspaper Publishers Association, points out that in time of war newspa- pers suffer particularly on ac- count of the enormously jncreas ed expenses. caused by the gath erinR of war news and increased circulation, for increased circu- lation means increased expenses.
 Newspapers do not make their money from the sale of papers. Unless ad vve 4 siising rates can be proportionally raised and this can by no means always be done, Che more circulation Of news paper increases the less money the newspaper makes.

Keep Trade Going

Under the caption, Keep Business Going for Our Coun try's Sake" the John Wanamak CT, New York, advertising has struck strong blow at the ill- advised economy" so strongly condemned in the state by How ard E. Coffin. of the advisory, Committee of the Nation l De fense Council, says a New York trade paper.
 The Wanamaker article con tains the following excellent ad- vice:
 Keep business going for our country's sake.
 Our country prosperous can pay our war costs, as they come, and have enough left oyer to aid our allies.
 Our country unprosperous, with business halting, money hoarded, through fear of false economy, will be hard pressed tc keep food on the table and cloth ing on the back.
 Keep business going is pa triotic slogan Keep money ir circulation. Keep employment for erybody. Keep wages good. Keep on making money that we may have money to spend for war sacrifices.
 The worst thing that could happen to the world these days would be business depression in our United States. War in itself does not cause business depression.
 The billions of dollars O money to be expended in wal preparations will be put into cir culation in our own country, ane this in itself will create nev wealth for use in the world struggle for humanity.
 The one thing that migh' halt business now is an unpatri- otic psychological feeling of pan ic and a false idea of patriotic economy.
 Patriotic economy means tn, eli imitation of waste and extrav agance. It means the conserva tion of our food products. oul natural wealth, our health, ou energies, our labor. our very Hives. It means putting more eff ficiency in everything we do S, | that each unit of money, enery, and intelligence may accomplish the utmost.

NEWSPAPER VS.. DODGERS

Morgan City, La. June 1917.
Mr.. C. E. King,
Editor Morgan City Daily Review
Dear SIR
About the first Of this month we
advertised a special 10 day June
sale in your paper, we were very
agreeably surprised at the results,
heretofore we have been using big
hand bills and did not think that any
other form of advertising would
pay, this year we used your medium
exclusively, and found that we not
only got better class Of trade, but
our business was equally as good as
our previous sales, at much less
expense.
We will be in a position in a few
days to contract for further space,
as we expect to put on our annual
pre-inventory sale, in a few weeks.
Yours truly,
Henry Loeb Co., Ltd.

THE LOVE THIEF

Juanita, a Mexican girl, falls in
love with Arthur Boyle, an Ameri-
can army captain, and through a
ruse induces his fiancee, Clara Mel
son, to break off the engagement.
When Jaunita sees that even then
she cannot make Boyce love her, her
affection turns into hatred.
In raid on a border town, Clare
is taken prisoner by Jaunita and her
ally, Costa. Boyce, who goes to the
rescue, is captured himself. How
ever, the two Americans get togeth-
er, outwit their guards, and make
off toward the United States from
tier.
Juanita starts in pursuit, but is
shot down by American soldiers in
a battle with the Mexican squad she
is leading. Boyce and Clare are re-
united.

When the F. B. Williams Cypress
Company of Patterson announced
that they would give dollar to the
St. Mary Chapter Of the American
Red Cross Society for every dollar
given by their employees during the
present week land loan the en-
ployees the amount they wished to
contribute) they struck method Of
expressing their patriotism that is
proving popular in other parts Of the
parish. Brownell-Drews Lumber
Company of Morgan City and the
Ramos Lumber Company have stated
that they will follow out the plan
suggested by the Patterson patriots.
Not only are these big concerns CIV
ing a dollar for every dollar contri-
buted by their employees but they
are loaning the money to their emf
ployees and permitting them to re-
turn it in installments which will be
easily met Other employers will pro-
baby fall in line on this plan in or
der TO encourage the support Of the
Red Gross Society and to again
place St Mary Chapter in the lead
Of MI chapters in the State.
The Texas Company and the
Waddel- Williams Lumber Company
Of Morgan City have announced that
hey viii AK each employee to con-
4yibute one days salary to the St.
Mary Red Gross Chapter. These
eompanies win give their men the
privilege Of paying their donation
= monthly installments. Both these
concerns are large employers and
their assistance in the Red Cross
work win help tremendously.

The diamond drill. (Crystal Falls, Iron County, Mich.) 1887-1996, 1917-09-29

The oustihg OF Mark Bacon by the
congressional committee on elections
and the seating OF former Congress
man s. w. Beaks. will be received
with approval all over Michigan where
fair play is welcomed. Bacon, re-
publican, was declared elected on the
face OF the return owning TO an error
in one OF the Jackson county wards
Enough ballots TO have elected Bealts
were not counted and the district
election board refused to certify thai
the returns were correct. although
they had no other alternative than ~
pass along the figures they received.
Bacon's title TO the seat was contest
ed and the committee by a unani-
nous vote upheld the contentious and
will report their finding TO the Hous4
soon when Mr.. Bacon will pass into
the discard. Beaks' attitude on i'm
portant measures hasn't been such as
we can admire, and we hope that next
time the republicans OF his district
will succeed in retiring him to private
life, but that fact doesn't In the least
justify his being denied seat that he
won honestly.
