ELECTRIC LINE ASSURED.
Donaldsonville-Loc Interurban
Project Nearing Realization.

The need for greater transporta-
ton facilities along Bayou Lafourehe
has been felt more than ever this
season, when it was necessary to con-
vey sugar to other sections of the
country. Rapid transportation and
railway service has also become I'M
perative, as witness the jitney busi-
ness from this point along the bayou.
A modern electric interurban railway
between Donaldsonville and Lockport,
on the bayou edge, has always been
the hope of all live citizens.
A number of prominent and sue
cessful business men have organized
the Southern Traction and Utilities
Co., capitalized at $500,000, to carry
out the work. Rights of way have
been secured for practically the en-
tire distance, the route has been
traversed by engineers, maps and blue
prints have been prepared.
Hourly service is contemplated,
and with the density of the popula-
ton along the stream this service will
supply long felt want. No country
in the world is more thickly populat-
ed, with the possible exception of
Holland.
Local men will be interested in the
railroad, and will lend their efforts to
enhance this great opportunity. Such
an enterprise is assured the good will
of every right thinking citizen, if not
their individual endorsement. Home
people must boost this project; they
can not do otherwise.
1t is expected to raise 100000
locally, and with this assured, capital
from eastern markets, if it be neces-
sary, will eagerly take the balance.
Public endorsement of the project
is taken for granted. No progressive
citizen can for a moment hesitate to
give the undertaking full and COM
plete moral and financial support. 1t
is what has been needed, an ad-
mitted necessity, for years. This un-
dertaking successfully established will
but be the forerunner of greater and
grander projects necessary to bring
out to the maximum the numerous
and dividend-paying opportunities
abounding around and about US

make his mark in the world. He IS
fortunate and wins success from the
start. He meets Catherine, daugh-
ter of the rich, and they become en-
gagged. Five years have passed and
John has not visited his mother. she
decides to surprise him and goes TO

entertaining his friends. After much
formality his mother is admitted.
John is surprised when he sees her.
He tells her to wait, and goes outside
the reception room to explain to
Catherine, now his fiance, that the old
lady was his nurse during childhood.
The mother hears him. That night
she quietly slips away, leaving note
telling her son that she longs for the
old home. John is overcome with re-
morse and decides to break his en-
gagement to Catherine and spend the
rest of his life with his mother.
Catherine follows him to the little
country town. He introduces his
mother to her as the dearest person
on earth. Catherine tells him she had
known it all the time. He embraces
her and happiness reigis in the coy
home where mother, son and daugh-
ter-in-law have settled down.

"a Game of Wits. y

Gail Kane is at her best in "A
Game of Wits which comes to the
Grand Wednesday. She appears as
the daughter of specializing mil
lionaire who gets himself all tied up
with a market shark and is at the lat
ter's mercy. This man wants to
marry the girl, but he is sixty years
old and she is nineteen, so, of course,
the father rejects the proposition with
scorn. Not so the girl, who has over
heard the proposal. She courts the
old fnancier, over-feeds him, over
exercises him in long walks through
the mountains, and at last drives him
to the extremity Of running away to
escape her athletic demands. She
makes him pay 100000 indemnity.

WAR BREAD RECIPES.
Observe These and Do Your Part To-
ward Conserving Wheat Supply.

The stimulation Of food production
has been going on in Louisiana over
year. People have been urged to
grow gardens in order to increase the
production of food. The government
realizes that there is more to be done
in connection with food than any 9TH
er line of activity. To quote Vice
President Marshall, "The country
with the last bushel of grain, etc.,
will win the war
Statistics have proved to US that it
is absolutely imperative to lessen the
amount of wheat consumed, hence I
wish to submit recipes for making war
breads, using the different wheat sub
stitutes.
# you have a good rule for bread,
use it, but in place of part of the
white flour use one of these other
grains-either all or part of the time.
You can use one-fifth as much white
corn meal as flour without changing
very much either the texture or fla
vor of bread. If dry yeast is used, a
sponge should be made at night with
the liquid, the yeast, and part of the
white flour.
Each of these recipes makes one
loaf that can be baked in the standard
pans, 8 inches by 8 1-2 inches by 3
inches.

play of beauty, under which heading
in addition to the lovely star and the
many pretty girls in the supporting
cast, can be included the array Of
gorgeous gowns, specially furnished
for the production by a leading New
York shop. The combination of
dramatic story of metropolitan So
ciety full of action and thrills, star
who is beautiful and talented, and a
succession of settings that have never
been surpassed for beauty and lavish
ness, assures a picture that will be
well worth seeing.

DISTRESS SIGNAL SOUNDED.
Red Cross Membership Campaign in

Unless every worker responds to

ness the allied troops manifest IN
charging the Boche trenches, after
the barrage fire has cleared the way

a failure. >,
The Gulf states are on trial, as 1t
were, answering an Indictment charg--
ing failure of a readiness to respond
to a great national cause-a wal
measure. in fact-needed as a con.
tributing force to the final victory OF
democracy over despotism-and II

may be held as lacking in patriotism
According to the quota assigned,
Alabama was to produce 100000 new
members, Louisiana ITS, 900, and Mis-
sissippi 125,0O0. Alabama up to Ia
test reports lacked 105, ,3O5 of the
quota; Louisiana lacked 72,795, and
Mississippi lacked 1858.
All the campaign managers nave
been urged to lead their forces IN q
final drive so determined and well
directed that there will be no chance
of failure. and all three of the Cult
states be put over the top with flying
colors.
Less than a week remains to ac-
complish the great end sought. In
the north, east and west they are ex-
ceeding their quota, and the men
heading the movement in the Gull dl,
vision say their forces cannot aftoro
to meet defeat.

ssBab's Burglar" :"

A very amusing continuation of the
adventures of "Bab," complacent
and charmingly egotistical young girl
back from school for vacation, IS Of
fered in "Bab's Burglar" with Mar
guerite Clark in the title role, which
the Grand will present as its Monday
attraction. There is a lot of comedy
incident at every stage of the story,
and the construction is fiawless, but it
is the characterization, brightly sup
plemented by clever subtitles, which
puts the audience in a good humor
that endures to the finish. Mary
Roberts Rinehart has proven that au-
thorship counts, whether the printed
page or the screen is the medium.
"Bab" is a winner.
