a good fight. /"

a good fight"
Paul, the Christian saldier, was
held UP as splendid example of the
true type of soldier that. our country
needs today.
Our country needs you men, and
you have answered to the call, like
the manly man that you are. Yes.
"the manly man" is needed today as
never before. Let me quote you the
kind of man some one has called the
manly man." ''The world has need
of the manly man with the spirit OF
manly cheer. The world delights in
the man who smiles, when his eyes
keep back the tear. It loves the
man, when things go wrong, who can
take his place and stand with his
face to the fight, his eyes to the light
and toll with willing hand.
The manly man is the country's
need, and the moments need, for
sooth, with heart that beats to
the pulsing tread of the allied
leagues of truth; the world is his,
and it waits for him, and it leaps
to hear the ring of the blows he
the hammer he dares to swing. 1t
likes the forward look in his face,
and the price of his noble head, and
the onward lunge of his tireless will,
and the sweep of his dauntless head.
Hurrah for the manly man, who
comes with sunlight in his face, and
the strength to do, and the will to
dare, and the courage to find his
place! The world delights in the
manly man, and the weak and evil
flee when the manly man goes forth
to hold his own on land or sea"
Rev. Wingo assured the men
again of the love and prayers that
that go with them and recommend
to them that best and greatest of all
friends who would 60 with them and
help them in all things, the friend
who would never desert them, the
greatest of. friends-the Savior of
the world.
After singin., the Battle Hymn
of the Republic" the military men
were asked to stand where they
were and then the audience arose
and saluted them.
The meeting closed with the sing
ing of "The Star Spangeld Banner, -
after which the benediction was pro-
nounced. ALI were requested to lin
ger and shake hands with every one
especially the men of the Division.
1t was a splendid ennobling ser
vice which will leave its imprint on
the minds of our boys with most ele-
waiting effect.

Achilles
Mrs. Kate Abel, speaking for the
mothers, sisters and sWeethearts of
Slidell, asked the boys to remember
that in case they invaded enemy ter
ritory to respect all women and girls
with whom they came in contact, not
to treat them as vassa,s and slaves,
as is too often the case.
Lieut.. Cooley, commanding the
company, replied, and modestly
promising to do their best, thanked
the people for the flag and the fine
reception which was in progress.
Sunday evening a farewell service
was given the Sixth Division Louisi-
anan Naval Volunteers at the Baptist
Church, which was profusely decor
ated with numerous small American
flags. One large flag formed back
ground for the pulpit and the entire
choir, and the new silk flag, which
was presented to the command on
Saturday evening completely cover
ed the pulpit. There was large
congregation present augmented by
people of all denominations, and a
great many of the sailors were there
in uniform. Rev. Wingo requested
Rev. T. j. Embre to offer opening
prayer. Rev. Embre prayed that
our boys might be guided by the
high standard in their part in war.
That all forms of government not in
accord with the equality of man, the
liberty of its people and the freedom
from oppression of rulers might be
destroyed and that enlightenment,
intelligence, power and freedom be
enjoyed by all people. Rev. Wingo
chose his text from second Timothy
to Z. II have fought a good fight,
have finished my course, l have
kept the faith Beginning, Rev.
Wingo told his hearers that for a
long time he had tried to be neu-
trial, but since the great man" at
the head of our government had sent
his mastery message to congress,
and the resulting declaration of state
of war that all neutrality had van
ished and that we must all rally to
the immediate and energetic support
of the government.
In opening Rev. Wingo spoke of
having had in mind special ser
vice for our Slidell Division of the
Louisiana Naval Militia for some
time, but had not thought our men
would be called out as early as they
we're. He welcomed so many of the
men who were present as we'll as
their friends and fellow citizens.
After thanking those taking part on
fnw Tho nvonino and
those who decorated with flags and
flowers the church he stated his text,

FOLSOM TRUCK GROWERS GET
TING BUSY.

Folsom. La, April 10, 1917.
St. Tammany Farmer:
Gentlemen:-Feeling that it is
just as patriotic to raise foodstuffs
as it is to arise a musket, the un-
dersigned have called a meeting of
this association to get the farmers
of this community to pledge their
support to the government, and offer
to grow foodstuffs best suited to the
needs of the soldiers. This meeting
is to be held on Thursday.
We feel that by giving space in
your valuabl paper to this cause you
will not only enlist the. services of
more farmers of this parish, but do
patriotic act as well.
Yours truly,
GEO. H. KOEPP,
President.

bred school children and possibly
twenty-five hundred people forming
parade nearly half a mile long.
The greatest outpouring VI citizens
ever witnessed here. All business
was suspended at about three o'clock
and everybody went to the depot to
say goodbye to our noble boys who
entrained for New Orleans and some
where in America. Many demon
STATIONS of grief were manifested,
Iseveral ladies being entirely over
come, and our girls seemed to get
their sweethearts all mixed up, and
in order to be sure that they did not
miss the right one treated all Of
them as long lost relatives whom
they had just found.
The boys left amid cheers from
the multitude, and their SDidell rela-
tives and friends will follow their
fortunes with deep interest.
| Owing to the farewell service
given in honor of the sailor boys OF
the local division, Rev. Wingo was
compelled to postpone his regular
visit to Pearl River from Sunday to
Tuesday evening, therefore being un-
able to attend the mass meeting held
that evening at Slidell, much to his
regret, as well as a great many
others.

Mrs. e. F. HALEY went to New

We are pleased to note the recov-
cry of Mrs. Fred w. Salmen, who has
been sick at the Grunewald Hotel IN
New ORLEANS for the past several
weeks.
One Of the interesting features of
Mondays parade was the large body
of men from the ship yards. or
course, their interest was natural, as
this was a naval company leaving for
war.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Unecasing Work Keep, Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
thre ugh the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys fll.er the
blood. They work night and day
When healthy they remove about
500 grains of impure matter daily
when unhealthy some parts Of this
impure matter is left IN the blood
This brings on many diseases and
symptoms which vary widely but
may include pain in the back, head
ache, nervousness, hot, dry skin,
rheumatic pains, govt, gravel, dis
orders of the eyesight and hearing,
dizziness, irregular heart, debility,
drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in the
urine, etc. But if you keep the fill
tiers right the danger is overcome.
Doan's Kidney Pills have proven an
effective kidney medicine.
John w. Skinner, Mayor, 2O7 Hol-
ly street, Hammond, La, says: Il
have used Doan's Kidney Pills on
different occasions for kidney dis
orders and have always found them
to he beneficial. / could't recon-
