A sweet smile fitting
About her cool, kind mouth.
Her son, her only son,
A man, as David was one,
Loved by all Seven Oaks,
Was lost when the Northern Queen.
Trapped by a submarine.
Went down of Howth.
She attends to her chores
In her usual quick, calm way.
The town loudly deplores-
The dried-up spinsters aghast-

Who fiercely takes her part,
Mumbling: "Ah, but her heart

- latest book, "Simba," just pub
~ lished by Doubleday, Page & Co.,
contains a great deal Of interest
ingly told lore of native Africa, "Africa
real" as it is in one place called.
Take the case Of Old Shimbo, who was
a dealer in Magic-and found, by the
way, that it commercialized quite easily.
One turns to chapter two and reads:
"old shimbo, the witch-doctor, was full
Of business these days. Affairs had piled
up on him, and as Shimbo was by now an
sged man with the Feasibility Of one long
in unopposed authority, he considered that
he was having hard time Of 1t.
"Old shimbo dwelt in little hut just
within the village Enclosure. His wives he
kept next door in larger hut, together
with the considerable wealth he had accu-
mulated. No one was ever allowed to enter
the little hut 1t was a queer kennel, hung
with such matters as bits Of skin, gourds
filled with miscellaneous magic, iron bells
on the ends of thongs, bones, dried herbs in
packets. couch of skins occupied one
corner.
''From this Shimbo stirred his creaking
bones only after the sun was we'll up. Then
he huddled at his doorstep before a tiny
fire over which dubbed mysterious pot
One of his hags brought him food. The
cattle had long since moved out from the
village to the hills, and the people were

muttered darkly to himself.
ITO him came rather timidly bright
faced. young native, his arm around the
waist Of an attractive young woman. They
stood waiting bashfully.
$50 Shimbo! greeted the young man
timidly.
"'What is it?' grunted Shimbo.
"The young man explained. He was owner
of new sh0nabG or little farm, just be-
yond the village. His crops were ripening.
Thieves were stealing the crops
"Shimbo waived his skinny hand.
"T have no time for such little things,
he c.oaked.
"The young man became urgent. He was
newly married. These crops were all his
wealth except-he would pay. He drew
from beneath his goat-skin robe an orna-
mented snuff-horn, which he offered.
Shimbo snatched it, looked it over, thrust
it beneath his own robe, and silently
reached out his skinny hand. The consult
ant sighed and slowly produced bead
armlet. Shimbo examined this also. Ap-
parently satisfied, he made long arm into
his hut and dragged from 1t leopard skin,
which he spread before him. On this he
proceeded to spill one by one various seeds
and pebbles from gourd, first shaking
them as one shakes dice. AS each fell on
the spotted skin he examined 1t closely,
but without comment other than an occa-
sional non-eommittal grunt- When the
last pebble had fallen he sat for some time
in silence. Then, gathering up the leopard
skin. he disappeared into his hut. Emerg-
ing thence, he passed swiftly, for ono no
old, to the council tree. There few words
to the loungers conveyed his wishes. The
whole masculine and considerable of the
feminine portions Of the village followed
him through the gates into the open fields
ARRIVED at the farm in question, he
halted the spectators at the boundaries,
while he himself, bent nearly double. trav-
ersed the field from end to end. Every ten
feet or so he cast unguessable small OBJ

GIRLS! HAVE WAVY, THICK
GLOSSY HAIR FREE FROM
DANDRUFF
Save Your Hair! Double its Beauty
In q Few Moments
Try This!

If you care for heavy hair, that
glistens with beauty and is radiant
with life; has an incompatible soft
mess and is fluffy and lustrous, try
Danderine.
Just one application doubles the
beauty Of your hair, besides it i'm
mediately dissolves every particle of
dandruff; you cannot have nice,
heavy, healthy hair if you have dan
druff. This destructive scurf robs
the hair of it's lustre, its strength and
its very life, and if not overcome it
produces a feverishness and itching
of the scalp; the hair roots famish,
loosen and die; then the hair falls
out fast.
If your hair has been neglected
andsis thin, faded, dry, scraggy or
too oily, get a small bottle of Know
tons Danderine at any drug store
or toilet counter for few cents; ap-
ply little as directed and ten min

best investment you ever made

Babies To The Front

Now that Uncle Sam has turned
his attention pretty thoroughly to
the young men of the country, he is
now ready and anxious to take up the
case of the babies. While this work
is also in the nature of a war meas
ure the babies will not be required
to bear arms against the Hun. They
will be required however to bare
their whole body for Uncle Sam.
He will be represented in this
work in Morgan City by the Civic
League, Mrs. w. B. Reed, Chairman.
Inspection which will consist of
weighing and measuring, will be
started on May 49, To make it eff
fective the youngsters will be re-
quired to bare not only their arms
but "their alp. The results of this
test will be not only of vast benefit
to Uncle Sam but to the babies and
their mothers. Mrs. Reed requests
that all children under the age of
six remember the date and be at the
City Hall at the time appointed.
'@To be sure that this is done." the
mothers are also asked to keep this
date in mind.

Big Parade Tuesday
Morning Will Be The
Signal For Start Of
Red Cross Drive
The Work Is Well Organized
And Officials Predict That
Morgan City Will Speedily
Be Over The Top

To mark the opening of the Red
Cross Drive in Morgan City, it is the
intention of local officials to hold a,
monster parade here Tuesday morn
ing, May 81. The opening was orig
'inally set for May Goth, but to
avoid any conflict with the last day
of the Chautauqua it has been post
poned to the following day Imme-
diately after the parade the drive
will be on in full force and the sew
eral teams will be instructed to get
busy"
Mrs. NJ. P. Palmer, local chairman
of the war fund drive, requests that
all auto owners appear in the par
ade with their cars decorated LODI
ges and school children have also
been asked to participate. Mrs. Pal
mer especially desires that all mo-
theirs of sons in the service be pres
ent in the parade. She asks that all
mothers notify her of their inten-
tons SO that a prominent position in
the parade may be provided. A place
of honor will be reserved for them
and it is urged that these women
respond to the invitation extended
them.
To date about fifteen personal
canvass teams have been appointed,
the members of which have been
selected with great care. Their
qualifications are such that no stone
will be left unturned that might con-
ceal a Red Cross contribution. In
case boulder is encountered they
have expressed confidence that a
little team work will accomplish the
desired results there too.
Don't be boulder.

GIRLS! ITS YOUR STEP THAT
ATTRACTS!
Says women pay too much heed to
their face instead of
their corns.

Watch your step! A brisk, lively
step is what charms more than q
lovely skin, but your high heels have
caused corns and you limp little.
That's bad, girls, and you know it.
Corns destroy beauty and grace, be-
sides corns are very easy to remove.
Rid your feet of every corn by
asking at any drug store for quar-
ter of an ounce of freezone. This
will cost little but is sufficient to
remove every hard or soft corn OF
callus from ones feet.
A few drops applied directly upon
a tender, touchy corn relieves the
soreness and soon the entire corn
root and all, lifts right out without
pain.
This freezone is gummy sub
stance which dries instantly and sim
ply shrivels up the corn without in
flaming or even irritating the sur
rounding skin.
Women must keep in mind that
cornless feet create youthful steI
which enhances her attractiveness.
