COLUMBUS DAY

According to the calendar It
was four hundred and twenty
six years ago today, October II,
when the great Genoese nayiga-
tor stepped from his ship onto
the soil Of the New World The
dream Of Christopher Columbus,
mau Of mighty faith and courage,
had come true and a new hcmis-
phere was added to the map
1t had never entered the mind
of the bold navigator when he
set out upon his perilous voyage
that he was to discover a new
world his sole object, as the
school boy knows, being merely
to find a shorter route to the
Indies. Still less, if possible, did
Columbus realize that the civil
cation which was to spring up
on the new continent centuries
later was TO furnish the forces
which would remould and save
the civilization Of the Old World
the thing that is happening to-
day before our own eyes.
If our forefathers had not "on
this continent founded a new
nation, conceived in liberty and
dedicated to the proposition that
men are free and equal, and if
the spirit which prompted them
to put freedom first among their
possessions had not been trans
mitted and kept alive in this
country, it is perfectly plain
that as a result of the present
war the liberty-loving peoples Of
Europe would have been crushed
beneath the iron heel of military
autocracy. If the American peo-
pie had not been made of the

all conflicts.

against the central powers had
practically lost the fight when
America stepped in, is generally

quered, no matter how imposing

OWN A HO ME-
Campaign of Education to Show
Folly of Renting

With more than 100 New Orleans
business men and firms financially
supporting the enterprise, ''Own A
Home" has been given a whilrwind
start, and hundreds of persons have
been given new starts in life through
the message, Make New Orleans A
City of Homes"
The New Orleans campaign, one
of the very few in which the public
has not been asked to contribute
and which is for the civic and in
dividaul benefit of everyone, is part
of national movement.
With wages of workers at the
highest mark, with the subject of
''Own A Home" before every Or
leanian as a result of the big public
ity and advertising campaign, the
campaign leaders believe great and
lasting good will result for the city.
The campaign, purely educational,
is to show Orleanians and any others
the advantages of owning their own
home; the folly of renting, and how
easy it is to become Independent of
landlords
New Orleans is Just now striking
hard blows for commercial success,
particularly through the Industrial
