WHAT WE FIGHT FOR.

The high aims of America and her
allies are well expressed in President
Wilson's greetings to France on Bas-
lie day:
Gas France celebrated our Fourth
of July, so do we celebrate her Four
teenth, keenly conscious of g. COM
radeship of arms and of purpose of
which we are deeply proud. The sea
seems very narrow today, france is
so close neighbor to our hearts. The
war is being fought to save ourselves
from intolerable things, but it is also
being fought to save mankind. We
extend our hands TO eacn other, to
the great peoples with whom we are
associated; and to the peop.es every
where who love right and prize JUS
tice as thing beyond price, and con-
secrate ourselves once more to the
noble enterprise Of peace and JUS
tice, realizing the great conceptions
that have lifted France and America
high among the free peoples of the
world. The French flag flies today
from the staff of the White House,
and America is happy to do honor
to that flag"

Coal On The Way

The following letter has been re-
ceived from the Southern Coal Com
'pany by Mr.. M. E. Norman and is
self-explanatory:
Southern Coal Company.
Memphis, Tenn, Aug. Ia, 1918.
Mr.. M. E. Norman, Morgan City, La. ;
Dear Sir-We have your notation
on your letter Of the 10th addressed
to our New Orleans office asking us
to get two cars of domestic coal
coming to you at once as the city is
about to mob you for not getting
coal.
We are taking this up with the
mines and will endeavor to have one
car shipped you in the next day or
two and get the other one off in a
short time thereafter.
1 also note what you say about
shipping the order to Waddell-
Williams Lumber Company and have
taken up with the mines and request
ed them to hurry this coal to them.
We will see that the shipments are
made.
Yours truly,
J. R. COLLINS,
President.

in tiny boat and sets it at1oat on the
water. Soon the little maiden, too, is
lost, also drifting out to sea in a frail
boat, to become the plaything of the
mermaids, who change her into one
of their kind. From this the fantasy
passes into many phases of improb-
ability, which bewilder, but delight
fully entertain, as fitting scenes Of
picturesque beauty blend and fade
one into another.
Anita, the Daughter of the
Gods" seems in some mysterious
way to be the little maiden of the
prologue, and many are the adven-
lures that cross her danger-beset
path. An Asian price loves her, ana
after she is captured by slave dealers
and becomes the favorite of the Sui
tan. Arousing the jealousy of the
former favorite, who succeeds in hav-
ing her condemned to death, she is
cast into a pool of crocodiles, but the
Fairy of Kindness who guards her
path changes the beasts into swans
and she escapes.
Being recaptured, she is placed in
a tower, from the top of which she
leaps into the ocean, only to be pur-
sued by slaves and once more brought
back. She is to be burned at the
stake, but is rescued by the Prince
as the flames leap about her. Later,
in journey to Gnomeland, she is
beaten and stoned, but is again saved
by the good fairy. Thus the kaleido-
scopic fantasy goes on and on, until
the spectator gives up the effort to
understand what it is all about and
surrenders to the charm of the spec
tacle.
Miss Kellermann has in her role
every opportunity that she possibly
could desire to show what she can
do. One thing she does is to wear
few clothes at any time and part Of
the time none at all, her famous
figure being displayed to the best pos
sible advantage. A real mermaid
scarcely could be more at home in
the water, and her diving and swim
ming feats are daring and skillful.
The cast includes William E. Shay
as Prince Omar, Hal DeForest as the
Sultan, and a dozen others, with the
addition of great crowds of super
numeraries.

DAUGHTER OF THE GODS"
Annette Kellermann in Spectacular
Motion Picture Fantasy.


A fairy fantasy of spectacular
splendor is ga Daughter of the
Gods" the William Fox motion pic
ture, with Annette Kellermann as the
star, which will be given this after
noon and tonight at the Arcade
Theatre -
The picture seems to reach the eli
max of cinema elaboration and real
ism, an intangible story, in which
mermaids, gnomes, elves, fairies and
human beings are united in bewild-
ering succession Of changing scenes,
having been staged on the coast, amid
the wave swept rocks and in the cav
erns and ravines of Jamaica, West
Indies. To the beautiful natural
background thus afforded is added
the magnifcence of an apparently
complete Moorish city erected for
the purposes of this picture, and at
the end with reckless extravaganza
consumed in flames.
The story is opened with a pso-
logue, a glimpse Of childhood and its
innocent belief in fairy folk. Nydia,
a tiny maiden, has a pet bird, which
escapes her and flies to its mate in
a tree. Then cat kills the bird, and
the child places the body of her pet

Work On Route OF
Bayou Caroline
Cutoff
N. S. Huth Dredging Company
Of Franklin Received Award
And Work Will Com
mence Sept. l

The first result of practical value
from the splendid good roads con-
ference held at Shriever Monday has
speedily come to pass. A contract
was let yesterday to the N. S. Huth
Dredging Company Of Franklin. They
were instructed to begin work Sept.
1. The company will fill pockets
and dredge the right of way on the
link of the Houston-New Orleans
highway between the Chene Bridge
and Gibson at cost of $4,000.
Seven hunded dollars has already
been subscribed for this preliminary
work and the balance will be raised
by police jury appropriations and
further individual subscriptions. It
has been estimated that the pocket
filling and dredge work will be COM
pleted in about six weeks. The pock-
cts should be filled in five days and
the balance of time will be consumed
in dredging approximately half
mile of canal.

the hearts of st. Mary enthusiasts

"The building of the Southern Ma

corner of Assumption parish was
shown to be matter of the utmost
to all four parishes.
Money privately subscribed and also
some subscribed by police juries Of
Terrebonne and st. Mary were shown
to be available to start to work and
a committee was authorized to have
the dredgework started at once to-
ward completing the gap across AS
a distance Of only about
three and one-half miles. This cut,
which is between the Bayou L'Ourse
and Bayou Boeuf, will shorten the

Marguerite of the Films

! for it is not often that an artist hav-
ing won international renown in a
character which depends principally
upon vocalism for effect, repeats that
success in the same character after
having totally eliminated the principal
contributing element.
+ And yet that is exactly what has
been accomplished by Nine. Sylvia, who
brought to successful termination
the season of the Chicago Opera AS
ISOLATION at the Lexington Theatre a
fortnight since by repetition OF her
performance of Carmen-the Car
men declared by critics in the United
States; in Paris, where she has sung
for five years; in Berlin, where she
was aided and abetted in the creation
by Caruso; in Belgium, the Belgium
which gave birth to the colorful prima
donna herself, to be the most repre-
sentative and the most satisfying
Carmen since Emma Calve presented
the role.
The Sylvia film was done in Spain
with the true atmosphere and in most
! artistic and lavish manner, introducing
incidents connected with the story and
indicated in the book which have never
before been visualzcd.
"The film was taken by the Cines
company in Spain," Nine. Sylvia de-
clared, "and it is the last word in Car
men, Here, the story is developed from
the period in Don Jose's life which led
to his enlistment, and the. chapters
which are but briefly referred to in
the opera are elaborated perfectly and
in strict accordance with the history
of the play and the personalities of the
characters. And so perfect has this
work been done that the high lights,
the points touched upon in opera, are
synchronized to the music, and
musicians familiar with the opera have
commented upon the fact that the dra-
matte action is in the same measure
as the music"
Nine. Sylvia is now, for the second
time, native of the United States.
Oscar Hammerstein brought her over
here when he established his opera
house on West Thirty-fourth Street,
and it was here that New York saw
her first performance of Carmen.
Nine. Sylvia was accepted immedi-
ately as the representative creator of
the part Singing it later in Boston,
at the Metropolitan Opera House, and
at the opera houses of Philadelphia and
Chicago, she tarred only long enough
to succumb to the offer Of A. II, Woods
to star in "Gipsy Love" at what was
then and is still the highest salary
ever paid q light opera prima donna.
Thence back to Europe, and there she
has remained for seven years. winning
laurcls in all Continental cities, and
being accepted everywhere rs the ilcal
Carmen, which, however, is but one OF
the fifteen leading prima donna roles
in her repertoire. II. u.
