A MOTHERS PRAYER.

Oh God they are calling them one
by one
To join the colors and see my sons,
Who but yesterday little lads,
Among the others now IN khaki clad,
And as l fling my grief and joy aside
My sad heart thrills with patriotic
pride
The while l realize, as only moth
ers can,
Not brotherhood, but just the moth
. erhood of man.
And as they march by they see no
trace
Of the maternal Stacker in MY face.
l smile salute, and then to Thee
l turn, dear Lord, in my Geth6e-
name.
Eventful weeks roll by, and day by
day
This is the burden of the prayer
And though my faith too oft is faint,
Yet Lord, if possible, let this cup
pass,
But grant the courage that my poor
HedTL pegs,
If l must drink of it unto the bitter
-dregs,
Though for the flag their lives should
pay the toll,
Protect them from what may destroy
their soul.
'Twere better that my boys should
pay the price
OF youths clean, untarnished sacri-
flee,
Than to return again beneath the
stripes and stars
With their young souls vitiered
sepulcher of scars.
Godspeed the red triangle on its way
To guard each mothers son by night
and day,
In perils. that encompass than on
land and sea,
Oh may their comrades be the man
of Galilee
That when their courage the nation
shall have fully tried,
They may unfurl our flag with honor
glorified.

COVER YOUR SNEEZE-1x)N'T
SPREAD DISEASE.

Influenza has arrived. 1t is clear
it will affect most of the population.
This is the history of past epidemics,
the first of which was recorded seven
hundred and forty-fve years ago
The world wide epidemic in 1891
Is we'll remembered by a great many
persons.
Although the present malady is
called Spanish influenza the home Of
the disease is supposed to be Asiatic
Russia.
Influenza in man is associated with
"epizootic" of the same character
which prevails usually at the same
time among horses, some times
among dogs and cats.
The preventive measures advised
are almost wholly personal. As the
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1918-10-12

infection is Transmitted from one to
another, those affected should be
isolated in a room away from other
members of the family.
Those who suspect they have the
disease should stay away from others.
To avoid fatigue, and to keep in the
best possible condition may be help
full in warding off an attack.
A patient sick with the disease
should go to bed until the fever stage
is passed.
Should consult a doctor.
Should see only the nurse and the
doctor.
. Eat lightly.
Take laxatives as needed.
By resting give nature chance.
This disease is very much like old
fashioned grip. Don't get scared.
We shall be lucky to be through with
it in the fall as pneumonia complica-
tons are less probable now than in
cold weather.

ST. TAslSfANY.s MILLION DOLLAR
BANK.

In the early part of January, 1913,
we were pleased to comment on the
fact that St. Tammany parish had
bank whose resources totaled one
half million dollars. In the early
part of July, 1916, with equal pleas
ure, we commented on the fact that
the resources OF the same bank total
ed three-quarters OF million dollars.
We had a pardonable pride in max
ing these announcements, for we felt
that it was credit to the entira
parish to have a financial institution
whOes resources were SO large. At
the asme time, we felt that these
figures had about reached their ZEN
it'll and we had no idea that the time
would ever come when we could
comment on the fact that the parish
could boast of having a Million Doll
lar Bank.
In the last issue of our paper, the
Covington Bank & Trust Company
published its quarterly report to the
Bank Examiner, which showed total
resources to be $1,O64,207.92. We
do not know where all this money
comes from, nor do we know II thia
bank can maintain these high flg-
ures, but we do know that for q rural
section the amount Is marvellous, and
1t speaks volumes for the growth
and progress of the parish and for
the confidence the people have in
this institution.

"Sir: Il have the honor to
acknowledge, on behalf of the Presi-
dent, your note of October 6, enclos-
ing the communication from the Ger
man government to the President;
and l am instructed by the President
to request you to make the follow
ing communication to the imperial
German chancellor:
Before making reply to the re-
quest of the imperial German gov
eminent, and in order that that re-
ply shall be as candid and straight
forward as the mOmentOus interests
involved require, the President of the
United States deems it necessary to
assure himself of the exact meaning
of the note of the imperial chan
cellor.
"'Does the imperial chancellor
mean that the imperial German gov
eminent ACCEPTS the terms laid
down by the President in his address
to the Congress of the United States
on the Sth of January last and in sub
sequent addresses, and that it's OBJ
ject in entering into discussions
would be only to agree upon the
practical details of their application?
"'The President feels bound to
say, with regard to the suggestion
of an armistice, that he would not
feel at liberty to propose a cessation
of arms 70 the governments with
which the central powers SO long as
the armies of those powers are upon
their SOIL The good faith of any
discussion would manifestly depend
upon the consent of the central pow
ers Immediately to withdraw their
forces everywhere from invaded ter
rit0ry.
"'The President also feels that he
is justified in asking whether the i'm
peria chancellor is speaking merely
for the constituted authorities of the
empire who have so far conducted
the war.
He deems the answer to these
questions vital from every point of
view.
Accept, sir, the renewed assur-
ances of my high consideration
(Signed): "ROBT. LANSING"
