youngsters will welcome the improv-
ed playground.
All mothers and friends of the
school children who are not now
members are asked to join us when
school days come again. There
never was time in the history Of
the world when the training and pro-
lection of children was as important
as it is today, so we should bend
every effort to see that the builders
of character, citizenship and humani-
ty-our teachers-are given aslaries
worthy OF their profession.

LIST OF PETIT JURORS DRAWN

patriotic and selfish grounds. The
money will be used to feed, clothe
and equip our soldier boys who are
giving up their lives that you and l
might live in security at home. The
earning capacity of the people of St.
Tammany is greater than its has ever
been before; wages are higher. farm
products are higher, lumber is high
er, live stock is higher, wool is high
er. There ia work for every man,
white and black, at unprecedented
wages. While these conditions exist
is the time to take thought of the
morrow. Four years and half
from now, when these War Savings
Stamps mature, our soldier boys will
have returned - victorious. They
will have sought and secured en-
ployment; production will have in
creased, wages will be down, prices
will be down. A reaction will have
set in and, may be, hard times"
will be in the land. II at that time
one-half million dollars in cash is
turned loose in St. Tammany, we will
have nothing to fear. The task Of
getting the people of the parish to
save up their money and invest to
such an extent is hard one, but the
reward will be very great. By de-
nying themselves things that are not
necessary and investing in interest
bearing securities that are practically
payable on demand, the people will
have formed a habit of saving which
will be of very great value to them.
The poor will have become free and
independent; the wage Garner will
have lost the fear of his family go
ing without sufficient food and
clothing.
If you are a man or woman of
means, l ask you to buy War Savings
Stamps to the limit Of yourself an
every one in your family. If you
cannot do this, buy the limit for
yourself and as much for the others
Of your family as possible. II you
as much as your cash means and
earning capacity for next six months
will allow. We are going to count
on you to help st. Tammany do this
impossible" thing.
Faithfully yours,
E. G. DAVIS.
Parish Director.

been called upon to furnish money,
not in accordance with its popula-
ton, but in accordance with its esti-
mated wealth. The present War Saw
ings campaign differs from the other
campaigns In that the South is being
asked to invest its money at the same
rate as the other sections; that is,
we are being asked to invest at the
rate Of $4,000 per head; men, wo-
men and children, white and colored.
One reason for this is the fact that
no one individual will be allowed to
invest in more than $1,000 worth of
Stamps, thereby making it impossible
for the North and East to pile up
large investments, and in that way
off-setting what the poorer sections
would not take.
In this particular drive the Gov
eminent is anxious to have a very
large percentage of the population
become investors in its securities and
the South is very anxious to have it
known that it can and will carry its
part Of the load, even though we are
not as we'll off, financially, as some
of the other sections of our Country.
OF course there will be many who
cannot take the allotment of $4,000,
but these should be offset by those
who can take the full limit of $1,000,
some even taking the limit for each
member OF the family. The parish
OF ST. Tammany is being asked to
invest more than 100000 in these
War Savings Stamps. an amount
which many may think is impossible.
Had not we already done the i'm
possible several times, I would say
the same thing. but am now of the
belief that there is nothing i'm
possible for st. Tammany to do. If
st. Tammany does not raise its quota
it will be because our organization
is defective or because the people
refuse to invest as literally as they
should. The money is here. l think
before the campaign is over you will
grant that the organization is here
also.

THOS J. KIERAN,

Before the departure of the co.or-
ed troops Judge T. NJ. Burns, DR.. H.
E. Gautfeaux and Mr.. John Halter
talked to them at public gathering
at the courthouse. All speakers
gave interesting information and
some excellent advice. 1t was urg-
ed upon them to conduct themselves
as soldiers should to win the respect
and uphold the dignity of the nation,
and responsibility of their position
was pointed out. Especial stress
was put upon the abuse of drink.
and it is satisfying to note that not
one of the colored soldiers entrain-
ed under the influence of liquor. All
left cheerfully and periodically and
their departure was witnessed by a
large crowd.
