COMMON HAIR BRUSH BANNED
Use Prohibited i'm Barber Shops and
Elsewhere After March 1, 1918.

Use Prohibited in Barber Shops and
Elsewhere After March 1, 1918.
The State Board of Health, at It's
quarterly meeting October 1890,
among other amendments to the sani-
tary code adopted the following,
which is Of widespread interest:
"The use of the common hair brush
on railway trains, in dressing rooms
or other apartments Of railway sta
tions, steamboats,, hotels, boarding
houses, stores, offices, schools, nata-
toriums Tor other bathing establish
ments), barber shops, hair dressing
parlors or any publicly frequented
place in Louisiana, is hereby pro-
hibited on and after March /, 1918.
No person, company, or corpora
tion in charge of any of the afore-
said establishments, ETC., shall fur
nish any hair brush for public use,
and no person, company, or corpora
tion shall permit in said places the
use of the hair brush in common"
The passage of this regulation fol-
lows an examination made by the
State Board Of Health Of over four
hundred hair brushes gathered from
twelve Of the leading places Of the
state.
Another amendment passed, also
! | of interest b
| sTf any cemetery, company or aass
Isociation, or any church or historical
society or association, or any other
company, society or association, or
any individual, is in possession of any
record of births or deaths which may
be of value in establishing the
genealogy of any resident Of this
state, such company, society, associa-
ton or individual may file such
record or duly authenticated tram
script thereof with the state registrar,
and it shall be the duty Of the state
registrar to preserve such record
form to facilitate the finding OF any
| information contained therein"
While the effort to secure complete
registration of births of the current
year is commendable and Imperative,
| it is believed interest may be stinau-
lated by urging adults to register their
own births so that the record OF every
individual in the state may be found
| in Louisiana's Family Bible.
| The value Of such records IN the
years to come will be incalculable.

XMAS GIFTS FOR BOYS ABROAD.
Packages Must Be Mailed Not Later

To assure the delivery of Christmas
packages at the proper time to the
boys in France and those in the United
States navy, the State Council OF De-
fense, in a circular issued by Secre-
tary John Marshall, urges that they
be mailed not later than Nov. 10, and
calls attention to the fact that Nov.
is is the last day on which such
packages may be mailed with assur-
ance of delivery prior to Christmas.
each community has it's boys in
training or at the front with the army
or navy" says the circular. when
Christmas time comes, those boys will
be pretty lonely. This Christmas Will
be different from any they have ever

| of wishing that they were home them

will be mighty hard on the one who

gotten.
"In the whole country there is not
a mother, not sister, and not
sweetheart who has boy in France
who isn't proud of the fact. None
wants her particular boy to think he
is forgotten. None wants her boy to
be without his package from home,
when the other boys in his command
get their packages.
/ "To make sure that none will be
lempty handed on Christmas day, every
mother, sister, sweetheart and friend
must do her Christmas mailing at
once.

girl with a string Of suitors, jilts

cient Colonel Beaupree. Westlake,
unknown to Octavia, secures a posi-

there is nothing for him to do but
play the hero, which he does most
satisfactorily and happily.

"Paradise Garden.

"Paradise Garden,' which will be
the Sunday offering at the Grand, is
an interesting psychological study of
a how reared in the seclusion of a
large estate and not allowed even to
see any member of the opposite sex
until he is twenty-one. Jerry Ben
ham, the boy on whom this expert
ment is tried in accordance with the
provisions of his fathers will, has
known only the afectionate COM
nanionship of his tutor until short
time before he reaches his majority,
when he meets Una Habberton, who
has wandered into paradise Garden. "
Jerry later goes out into the world
and becomes infatuated with Marcia
Van Wyck. He is disillusioned, how
ever, when he finds her in the em-
brace of Jack Ballard, his chum, and
goes back to his estate, where,
through the instrumentality of his
old tutor, reconciliation is effected
with Una. Harold Lockwood gives a
good Interpretation of the character
Of Jerry, and Vera Sisson ably por-
trays the part Of Una Habberton.

Tomorrow will be observed as I.
M. C. A war work day in the churches
all over the nation as part of the big
campaign to raise S35,000,0OO for
financing the work Of the 7. NC. a.
among the soldiers and sailors of the
United States and her allies. The min
listers Of Louisiana have been request
ed to make the wartime activities
of the Y. M. C. A. the subject Of their
sermons on this occasion. Encourag.
ing reports are being received al
headquarters from every part OF the
state. Practically all of the parishes
have decided to raise more money
than has been apportioned them, and
there is strong indication that they
will do it. The people Of Louisiana
are aroused as never before to the
tremendous seriousness Of the war
situation, and are responding IN 9
very worthy spirit to this call for
funds to help make clean soid1ery.

"Barbary Sheep. -

No more attractive vehicle could
have been selected for the motion
picture debut of Elsie Ferguson, ia
nous beauty Of the speaking stage,
than Robert Hichens' romantic story
Of Algeria, "Barbary Sheep" IN
which Miss Ferguson will be seen at
the Grand Tuesday. The leading role,
that of the young and lovely wife OF
middle-aged Englishman who leaves
her to herself while he INDUCES pas
sion for big game hunting, might have
been written especially for the noted
star. Into her life, while the couple
are stopping at an inn in Algeria,
there comes an Arabian officer OF
spahis, the picturesque native caval-
ry of that old-world land. She is fas-
einated by him--he pursues her with
the ardor and passion Of his dark
skinned race. There are moonlit
evenings in the silent desert, when
the Arab woos Sir Claude's bride
while Sir Claude is far in the hills
hunting Barbary sheep. Tragedy
finally comes-but not to Lady
Wyverne nor to. Sir Claude. A hand
out Of the past clutches the Spahi's
throat just as his newest victim seems
within his grasp. Directed by Maui
rice Tourneur, this vivid romance of
alien races is one of the most colorfui
photodramatic productions ever Of
fered. Miss Ferguson's rare beauty
is set off to the utmost advantage by
Oriental surroundings and costumes,
and she has the support Of a note
worthy cast. .l.-

"The Hostage

Few photoplays attain the degree OF
sustained interest that is found IN
"The Hostage" which comes to the
Grand Monday. A suspense that
holds the spectators interest tightly
captive is contained in every foot Of
the five reels. And Wallace Reid and
his supporting cast make important
even the smallest incidents, all OF
which have bearing on the plot. 'The
Hostage" is war story with pur-
pose, but the purpose is so cleverly
veiled under the cloak of entertain
ment that one who has seen the pic

THE Haunted House."

The Triangle picture at the Gem
today will be "The Haunted House. ~
wherein Winifred Allen appears as
Anne, an old-fashioned little girl liy-
ing in a New England village where
bigotry and prejudices still flourish.
Anne is regarded as somewhat
"queer" by the superstitious villagers,
and spends much Of her time in the
woods. Nearby is an old mansion that
has the reputation of being haunted.
No one dares live in it, and those who
have had the courage to approach it
at night have been frightened away
by a ghost. Jimmy, young crook,
robs the village bank, and in endeav-
oring to escape seeks refuge in the
'.haunted house." The ghost comes
to meet him, but, finding him wound
ed, takes pity on him and conducts
him inside. When others dare to
penetrate the fearful domain the lit
tie ghost uses wit and force to pro-
tect the boy. A strange romance en-
sues when the 1'ghost" casts off the
white robes and becomes very human.

NEWS OF THE PHOT0PLAYS

as its Friday attraction. This amaz-
ing picture of romance and war tells
in remarkably realistic manner how
young American army officer, who
enlists in the French aviation corps,
saves the daughter of famous French
artist from becoming the victim of an
unscrupulous German officer, and flies
with her in his war plane behind the
british lines. The several battle
scenes are drawn absolutely true to
actual conditions, more than 1900 u.
S. regulars and national guardsmen
taking part. 1t is not war picture
in the accepted sense, because while
there are flashes of international
strife and number of thrilling aerial
episodes, the sanguinary element is
missing and the love story over
shadows the battle field. Edward
Earle and Betty Howe are featured
in the production.
