FIREMEN'S BALL
A GREAT SUCCESS.
Beautiful Decorations And Light
ing Effect Add To Pleasure
OF The Dance.
OF The Dance.

It is safe to say never have decora-
tions been more beautiful and elabo-
rate in the City Assembly Rooms than
last night upon the occasion OF the
ball given by Independent Fire Com
panv No. . OF the City's Volunteer Fire
Department. Every inch OF space OF
wall was covered with flags and PEN
ants. Old Glory being given the great
est prominence The large white cord
with red cross bars that the fremen
carry in parade was suspended from
the ceiling and festooned with small
American flags. and at each end were
tiny silk flags of the Allies.
The lighting effect was especially
attractive, many colored lights in red,
white and blue being installed for the
occasion. Several dances were spot
light dances" and these were most eff
fective. With all other lights out the
large arc light was turned on for a
waltz or two-step, which was very
effective. In the centre of the room
hung a large service flag with 81
stars for members of No. 2 Fire Com
pany who have answered the call to
colors A large crowd was in attend
ance, indeed the floor at times was
uncomfortably crowded with dancers.
During the evening refreshments
were sold and a good sum realized.
The dance was a great success in
every particular, and the committee
of arrangements composed of MIR.
John Taylor, president, Charles
Tucker, secretary, Robert Strange
and Raymond Clark are receiving
congratulations today upon the splen-
did success of the dance, which
everybody enjoyed.

WHY is THERE NO
FLAG ON ARMORY

Inquiry has been made from time
TO time as to the reason why there is
no flag on the Bladen Street Armory.
1t is customary for all public buildings
to fly the United States flag since war
was declared. The absence of a flag
on the Armory has been commented
upon recently by number of French
visitors in this city.

AT EN- Boys; Eat EN- Up"

Speaking of potatoes. not ball play
ers
1t may not pass the examination for
dignity, but this hoarse suggestion of
the bleacher fan quite accurately car
ries the thought which the Depart
ment of Agriculture and the Food Ad-
ministration are trying to impress
upon Americans in the Eat potatoes"
campaign It's a serious obligation.
Millions of bushels of potatoes should
be eaten within the next few weeks.
If we eat them( we save wheat and
potatoes both. And if we save wheat,
the boys in France who are holding
that line can carry on" under the
same rallying cry
AT 'em boys; eat 'em up"

shall We Have Coal Next Winter

Shall We Have Coal Next Winter?
8. A. Hale discusses the present coal
situation fully In the July. number OF
the Worlds Work. His ANAL word is:
II there is a coal shortage In the
East, 1t will be because transporta-
ton. both rail and water. has failed
to meet the necessities OF the situa-
ton, for the mines In that part of the
country have a potential capacity
in excess of even the requirements OF
Ia war-speeded industry. II there
Is a shortage in the West. the re.
sponsibility will rest upon the public
In that section because, in the face
Of the fact that the Western mines
must have practically continuous
operation in order to make good
the deficiencies caused by the with
drawal of Eastern Goals. 1t has made
such operation impossible by refus-
ing to place orders during the spring
and summer.
A steady flow of coal from the
mines to consumer must be main
tanned. Upon every citizen de-
wolves the duty of doing everything
in his power to keep that flow Of
coal continuous.

BY UNKNOWN NEGRO

member of the ONCE force of the
General Chemical company, was
stabbed. but only slightly injured. by
young negro named Andrew Mabe.
Mr.. Stringfellow was accompanying a
young lady to her home and while
they were proceeding along Jefferson
avenue they met the negro. who did
not appear to be looking in their di-
rectino, and was about to run into
the lady. Mr.. Stringfellow put out
his arm and pushed Mabe aside. and
the latter thereupon became pro-
fanely abusive Mr.. Stringfeliow
reached for stone and Mabe made
off, and Mr. Stringfellow and his
companion proceeded on their way
but they had gone only short dis.
lance when Mabe sneaked up be-
hind them and. without warning
stabbed Stringfellow twice In the
back. Luckily the power OF the knife
was not equal to Mabe's murderous
intentions, as one of the blows hung
in the coat and the other, while
piercing through all of Stringfeilow s
clothing, penetrated only a slight dis
lance into his back. Mabe then made
his escape and has not yet been APP
prehented. He has the reputation
of which he Is said to be proud--ot

FABIAN CHACHERE VISITS
RELATIVES HERE

Fabian Chachere, now in the
navy, during this week spent
a furlough of five or six days
with his relatives in this city.
Young Chachere was looking
very well and has gained in
weight since joining the navy.
He enlisted in Ell Paso, Tex
as, last May, and was sent to
San Francisco. He has since
done guard duty at Honolulu,
and other ports in the Pacific
Ocean, and as a fireman on the
babtleship phe has gradual
ly made the rounds to the At
lantic seabord. He came home
from an Atlantic port. His
furlough was for nine days,
but nearly half of this time
was consumed in travel.
Needless to say, our young
friend enjoyed his stay in his
old home.

NEGROES SEEK AID N
IMPROVING SCHOOL
FACILITIES
Hope to Build School of Their
Own Will. Aid of Populsg
Subscription, Police jury,
School Board, Etc.

The colored people of this
community are endeavoring to
better the facilities Of Their
school in Opelousas, and as a
means of doing this they would
raise an amount by subscrip-
ton among the citizens of this
city and section, and ask the
police jury, city council and
school board to further aid
them. The negroes have no
public school building of their
own in this city, and they want
one. The building presently
used for that purpose is a rent
ed one, and this is wholly in
adequate to meet the needs.
They are now canvassing the
city in an effort to raise as
much as possible, and will
then appear before the public
bodies. They have the support
of local school authorities, and
expect, with the assistance of
local people, soon to gain their
end.
1t has been suggested the old
school building on Market
street be demolished and the
lumber in it used to erect a
building the negroes may have
as their own in a neighborhood
more suited to such a purpose
than the present site. In this
they have the support Of Il. IL.
Harris, state superintendent,
but as the building is now in q
white neighborhood, he urges
them to make an effort to pur-
chase another site and devise
some means Of having the
building torn down and rebuilt.
If they can raise a fund large
enough this will be done.

dred Per Cent

The Opelousas High School
has enrolled 491 members, or
I76 per cent of the schools to-
tai enrolment, in the junior
Red Cross work, and has there
by qualified as an auxiliary.
Indications point to a hundred
per cent enrolment in the
school. In fact, five of the
classes have already turned in
a full membership, and the re-
naming ones are not far be-
h indin this regard. The 9Th,
9th, 10th and 18th classes--the
High School department., and
the 9Th grade with Miss Aline
Dezauche as teacher, and the
4th with Miss Edith Mayer.
have entered the work with
full membership.
Opelousas with this fine
showing has nothing on the
schools at Melville, Washiny-
ton, Sunset and Grand Prairie,
as reports from these schools
J.
state the children under the
leadership of their teachers
are displaying much interest in
the movement, and are work
ing assiduously in an effort to
turn in a full membership.
Complete organization in these
schools has been delayed a lit
tie because the necessary liter
ature has not been provided.
The Eunice schools has been
closed by the board of health,
and consequently the work has
not begun there.
The smaller schools OF the
parish hape made no reports.

JACOBS CELEBRATES
ASR|NcTON'S
BIRTHDAY
Sells Over $4,000 Worth of
War Savings Stamps to
Commemorate First Pres
dents Natal Day

Not infrequently does Aaron
Jacobs, the busy manager of
Southwest Louisiana's best
News Agency, come forward
with some new idea, and the
novel manner which he chose
to commemorate the birthday
OF the first president of the
United States was only anoth-
er successful effort of his. AT
ter an extensive campaign OF
advertising by placards he,
with Frank Dimmick, chair
man of the parish war savings
committee, placed a number Of
the people and business houses
Of Opelousas in possession of
$4,000 worth thrift stamps and
war savings certificates. Each
one of the four Opelousas
banks purchased it's quota of
$1,000. The Peoples had pre-
viously bought S525.00. The
idea was originated and car
ried to a success by Mr.. Jacobs
and at his solicitation many
local people helped swell Ope-
lousas' total.
Chairman Dimmick recently
named several additional To-
cal agents. Lorenzo Mornhin-
veg and G. NJ. Cretin, besides
the banks, are now authorized
agents.
Local school authorities have
been notified by Superinten-
dent Harris that the sales cam
paign in the schools is to be
continued through February
and March, and the same prize
offers will be repeated.

horse. Mr.. Dezauche has ever
been in the front of the pro-

attests his firm belief in the
