FIERY ADDRESSES MARK RALLY
Powerful Pleas in Behalf of Liberty
Loan by Eloquent Speakers.


The patriotic rally held at the
courthouse Friday night in observ-
ance of Liberty Day, under the aus
pices of the Ascension parish coun-
Gil of defense, brought out good
sized crowd, and will undoubtedly be
productive of excellent results IN
stimulating the sale of Liberty Bonds
locally and otherwise awakening the
people of the community to sense OF
the duties and obligations resting
upon them in the present Juncture.
While the attendance was not as large
as on the occasion Of the last event OF
a similar nature held in Donaldson
vile, and by no means commensurate
with the Importance of the message
delivered by the respective speakers
and the proper recognition OF the
day thus dedicated by President VII
son to purposes considered vital to
the nations destiny, those present
made up in enthusiasm and paCrlotic
fervor what they lacked in numbers,
and in this regard the demonstratlon
NAV be said to have been one OF the
most successful and notable that mas
taken place here since Americas en-
try into the war. t,o
Walter Lemann, chairman OF the
parish defense council, cailea Ihe
assemblage to order, and introduced
Hon. E. N. Pugh as the chairman.
Mr.. Pugh made short talk IN Whlch
he pleaded elouuently for liberal sup
mort of the Liberty Loan on the part
of the citizens of Donaldsonvllle and
Ascension, and stating that he never
asked anvonp to do something he was
not willing to do himself, he an
nounced that he would head the ns'
of subscriptions with his personal ap-
plication for $1,000 worth OF bonds.
:, Stirring addresses were delivered
bv Coz. T. Sambola Jones and Col. A
r. Prescott, of Baton Rouge.
The former speaker was especlalls
forceful and effective, and his fiery
remarks carried punch that ere
ated intense enthusiasm among ms
hearers and moved them to voclter-
ous expressions of approval. lt Is
safe to say that clearer conceptlo:n
If the issues involved in the gigantic
conflict into which America has been
drawn. and a fuller realization OF

wholesome, and properly selected food. In connection with diet, 1t Is we'll to remember that milk is one of the best all-round foods obtainabls for adults as we'll as children. So faf as disease like influenza is concerned health authorities everywhere recog nize the very close relation between it's spread and overcrowded homes. While it is not always possible. cs pecially in times like the present, to avoid such overcrowding, people should consider the health danger and make every effort to reduce the home overcrowding to minimum. The value of fresh air through open windows can not be over emphasized.
 Where crowding is unavoidable, as in street cars, care should be taken to keep the fact so turned as not to inhale directly the air breathed out by another person.
 It is especially important to beware of the person who coughs or sneezes It also follows that one should keep out of crowds and stuffy places as much as possible, keep homes, offices, and workshops well aired, spend some time out of doors each day, walk to work if at all practicable-in short make every possible effort to breathe as much pure air as possible.

DUNBAR |S tND|CT ED . BY GRAND JURY 0N
 SIX COUNTS

John O. Dunbar, editor and proprie- tor of Dunbar's Weekly, was arrested | ih Phoenix charged with violation of the espionage act on an indictment of six counts returned by the grand jury in the United States district court, each of which charged him with ob- structing the sale of liberty bonds of the fourth issue. He pleaded not guilty and was released on bond of | $5 ,000. w. L. Barnum is acting as Dunbar's attorney.
 The article which caused the arrest of Dunbar appeared in the Oct. 5th issue of Dunbar's Weekly, and is call 1 ed 'Profiteering Patriotism" The first count named in the indictment was based on the following sentence:
 ''The men who are directing the hb- erty loan campaign in Phoenix and utilizing brass band methods to adver- tise their patriotism are beneath pub lie notice"
 In the second count sentence is quoted from the article as follows:
 These profiteering gents were seek ing in various ways, many of which would not bear the sunlight of truth, to control the city, county and state 7"
 Count three names part of anoth- CT sentence appearing in the same ar ticle, these people who like to pose as public spirited, patriotic citizens, who, in truth, are only wearing the garments of patriots to disguise their profiteering business beneath.''
 In the fourth count of the indict- ment a short paragraph apearing in the editorial columns of the paper, apart from the larger article from which the above sentences are taken, is quoted as whole. It is:
 "Dunbar's Weekly is the only news paper in the state that failed to re- ceive patronage of the patriotic 1iber- ty loan. If this aggregation of gents can stand this, we guess we will have to. The Phoenix prof1teers and Huns could not keep their unclean hands even off the sacred liberty

send "a substitute. But this didn't look good to Congressman Hayden. He is broad minded democrat and he felt each man should bear his share of responsibility in the war. He introduced and had passed an amend ment making it impossible to send sub stitutes.
 It is also interesting to know that this session of congress framed and passed revenue measures appropriat- ing more money than had been raised and appropriated in all of the prevl- ous congresses combined from the down to that time.
 It is laso interesting to know that the heat in Washington during this session went frequently to IF de- grees which is pretty warm consider ing the amount of humidity there. Many nights the thermometer scared around the 100 degree mark. During this entire time of heat stress, strain and anxiety, Carl Hayden, represent vote would have been approved by his constituency.
 Six congressman unequal to the strain died during the session.
 So impatient was the country at the time they would hardlp give con- gross time to properly frame law be- fore they would demand vote and passage of the law. Proper debate and consideration seemed to be irls- some to America. But in spite of the country's anxiety and in spite oi the tremendous work congress did its full duty and did 1t well.
 Prominent among them was : Carl Hayden commanding figure repre-. senting great state in a great way.
