Sugar Lid Goes
Off Next Monday

The sugar lid will be off about
December l. There may not be any
certificates issued for that month, as
dealers, manufacturers and consum-
ers probably viii be permitted to pur-
chase as much sugar as they desire.
Sugar and candy will be plentiful,
even if they win not be cheap.
The important news was given out
by Horace C. Earl, assistant chief of
the sugar division Of the United
States Food Administration, who ar
rived in New Orleans Monday for a
conference with the Louisiana SUI
gar control committee and various
branches Of the industry in this
state. 1t was after interviews with
the committee and John M. Parker,
food administrator for Louisiana,
that he ventured the information,
which has not yet been officially is
sued from Washington. The sugar
situation is not any easier, as far
as the worlds wants are concerned,
but the decision seems to be a case
of America first.

4 THANKSGIVING MESSAGE

Then let's do it. "Let the redeemed
of the Lord say SOP Never has
there been in the history of our great
country Thanksgiving like unto
this One that called forth so much
joy out of the bereavements of our
sorrow. So much peace, out of such
a cruel war! So much gratitude for
the many blessings from the good
hand of our Heavenly Father.
But words are very poor vehicles
for our deep and grateful thoughts
and abiding emotions! So let us
hear the eloquent and momentous
words of our great President, Wood
row wilson: "On this Thanksgiving
Day new light shines about us.
The great duties of a new and bright
er day awaken a new and greater
national spirit within us. We shall
never again be divided nor wonder
what stuff we are made of. And
while we render thanks for these
things, let US pray Almighty God
that in all humbleness Of spirit we
may always look to Him xor guidance.
That we may be kept constant in
spirit and purpose of service. That
by His grace our minds may be d.
rected and our hands strengthened;
and that in His good time liberty and
security and peace and the comrade-
ship Of common justice may be
vouehsafed all the nations of the
earthw
Bogalusa, the best city on earth,
and composed Of some Of the best
people in the whole wide world,
should pour out her gratitude and
thanks for the heroic reeds of her
gallant soldiers; for the inspiring de-
votion and tireless service Of her no.
BILE women at home! For the enthu-
siastic support and generous giving
in every war work drive Of the year.
But above all, we give thanks to God
for our happy homes and loyal and
heroic citizensl

Thanksgiving in the history Of the
city of .Bogalusa.

Kaiser and Ticks
Had a Bad Year

If the Kaiser believes that misery
loves company, he should have a
brotherly feeling for the cattle fever
tick. This year has been bad one
for kaisers and ticks.
This is why it has been bad one
for the ticks and why December /,
1918, should be memorable day in
the Southern states:
An area greater than ever before
freed in one year from federal quar-
antine will be released on that day.
The drive of the anti-tick forces
will have sent broad wedge of free
territory through the tick lines to
the Atlantic ocean, just as last year
a wedge was driven to the gulf.
Of the 1856 square miles of
infested area in 1906, So per cent
will have been pronounced clean.
Farmers will be free to ship their
cattle to the great markets for COM
petition on their own merits with
other cattle, and not under the quar-
handicap which requires sale
at buyers prices for immediate
slaughter.
Cattle will increase in value,
weight, milk production, appearance,
health, productivity and length of
life.
Farmers in the freed areas viii be
able to bring to their farms better
stock and thus raise the standard of
their herds. The Southern states will
have taken big strides coward their
position as. a great cattle-raising
country to which their natural adj
vantages entit1e them.

Nights Are
Thing Of the Past

Ligatness nights in Louisiana
were abolished Saturday BY an or.
der issued from the office of John
c. o'Kelley, state fuel administrator.
Electric lights may now be used for
all purposes every night in the week.
The matter Of lifting the lighting ban
was left up to the Judgment of in
dividual administrators by DR.. Harry
Garfield, United Statese fuel admin
-istrator.
Louisiana has enough coal for the
present" Mr.. O'Kelley explaied
"but this is no reason why the peo-
pie should waste fuel by burning I'M
necessary lights. There still is me-
cessity for the conservation of fuel
Ia saving that is now up to the peo-
pie to enforce without compulsion. !"
All storage restrictions on bitum-
nous coal also have been removed.
This followed the abolition, Of the
preference list Of the War Industries
Board, putting all industrial plants
on the same basis so far as fuel is
concerned. Industrial plants may
now buy and store all the coal they
desire. Mr. O'Kelley cautioned
plants formerly classed as preferred
to buy coal without delay, as the rush
for fuel by industries which have
been restricted probably will make it
difficult to obtain coal this winter.

Got Your Winter
Supply of Fuel9

If you have not your winter fuel
in now you are apt to have some I'M
comfortable days ahead of you, un-
less you take advantage of the next
days of~good weather in getting in a
supply, because the rains or last week
are liable to leave the roads in such
shape that they will not be in con-
dition to allow much hauling between
now and spring. While it is reported
that there is a big shortage of coal,
reports from mining districts are that
they are working only half time on
account of no orders. Coal can be
secured in Bogalusa at present.
