T0DAY-G00D PROGRESS
Campaign Extended Account of
Smileage Shortage.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Active, enthusiastic patriots load
ed with smileage books sailed forth
This morning on the residents of this
city with an appeal to buy a dollar
book Of smileage and send it to the
oammles instead Of the usual cake or
s"eetnesses sent him.
Among the committees working the
city today are: Mrs Robt. Ayent, as
sisted by Mrs. + C. Dorman; Mrs. c.
ID. Pepper with Misses Adele Barn
well and Hertense Smith; Mrs. C. f..
saunders with Mrs. Porter Weaver;
MRS. j. L, Gillespie with Misses Bessie
Elizabeth Cassity and

". Quinn, G. A. Wade, P. E. Schill-
ing and c, r. Crull and G. A, Will
son, Jr, will launch the drive in the
business section of the city later.
Shortage of Smiieage.
These arrangements have been
put into effect because Of the short
age OF smIeage at the general head
quarters. A wire from the national
headquarters this morning stated that
tue overwhelmingly nationwide de-
mand for smiieage books, coupled
with the industrial shutdown by the
LeI administration had temporarily
exhausted the supply.
However, this does not curtail the
acceptance of any orders that may be
ts9uesyed. The local workers have
authority to book requests for the
Jruels and supply them later.
Working Itta Bena.
Messrs C. R, Crull, Warner Wells
and Z. L. SchilIing today spent
sAIaeake day in itta Bena with Mr.,
.tAey Ely, the energetic chairman Of
mat cItys smileage campaigners.
1t is expected that TINS town will
also aid in the work in Mississippi.

After editing and publishing differ
ent weekly newspapers for a period
of thirty-years / decided to establish

basis with that amount Of loss that

that | would go broke. But ! got
busy and fooled them. / proceeded to
get right on the job and have been
there practically every day from s
a. M. to p. m. since the first issue
OF my daily came from the press
giving the public live, clean, newsy,
reliable paper-a dependable tele-
tslegraphic, market, local and edissgis.

city and telegrapuc editor is capable
and believes in giving the news while
it is news and featuring it in the
most attractive manner; the society

my "better-half," and she makes that

The Natchitoches Chapter Of
the Red Cross has shipped thirteen
boxes to the Gulf Division. More
workers are needed at headquarters
as the cause grows from day to
day. The social, religious and
charitable organizations are al
represented but it is unfortunate
that the units are so small. Nat
chitoches people are not Slackers
as was proven by our wonderful
membership drive, but they have
not vet realized what it would
mean to have each homo repre-
sented at Red Cross Headquarters.
Mrs. Anna McG9ok has been
appointed superintendent and IN
structor of the surgical work and
Mrs. Fannie Montgomery, super
intendent of hospital garments.
These ladies took the course of
instructions recently given in New
Orleans under Mrs. Moberlys
and are most efficient workers.
All the work for the month has
been given. out and the interest is
growing from day to day.
The Normal students are work
ing in the Junior Auxiliary OF the
Red Gross under the able leader
ship of Mr.. J. E. Guardia, Miss
uauIden, Miss Margaret Weeks,
Miss Haupt, Miss Gabrielson and
Miss Ress Graham, and one hun
dred comfort pillows were made
and shipped last week.
Boxes eleven, twelve and thir-
teen shipped today contained the

As much for matter of record
for the files that are constantly
sought for it, as to inform folks
away from home who like to know
everything that goes OH here, the
weather of the past week is OF
|interest.
Friday was an intensely cold
day, with plenty of ice. but Satur-
day the weather moderated so,
taat by evening the thermometer
had climbed to spring like degree
and in the afternoon a heavy rain
storm with tightening and thunder
reigned several hours. Then old
Roreas chased the clouds away and
fir ed with Kings Frost, Ice and
Hail until. Monday noon when a
white mantle completely covered
the earth and the fullness thereof,
that furnished fun for the boys,
but not so much tor the rest OF
mankind. just before noon, on
Tuesday old Sol took up the reins
of government and practically re-
stored normal conditions for this
season of the year.
| For the first time in many de-
cade there will be no Mardi Gras
celebration 10 New Orleans this
year. Our people having turned
to more serious matters than fun
and frolic, SO the Carnival spirit
will not be manifest again until
after the war ends.
