the least imparing the sacred
ness of woman's position in the
world and in the home.
| Even before the world ever
dreamed of the present war,
these conditions of life, changed
! for womanhood, and were being
felt more and more, in almost
every department of activiyt. But
since the war, this change has
become so pronounced, that we
feel right in asserting that prob
ably, an All-wise Providence has
permitted this awful catas-
Itrophe, among other reasons,
for giving woman a chance to
prove to the sin-laden world,
that she is as much as, and per-
haps more than she ever was,
in the strictest sense of the
word: "a partner for Man" The
words of Genesis seem to apply
now, with more force than ever:
"Let us make for Man, a part
ner, like unto himself. During
all these four years of dreadful
War-scourge, in every country
of the globe, almost, we have
seen Woman spreading her ac-
tivities to every Phase Of daily
life, filling positions of the great
est responsibility, exceedingly
well, and in some cases better
than man; we have seen her,
sometimes aided by man, some
times unaided. and by her sheer
pluck and skill and determina-
tion, taking the place of man, in
every line of mans work; in
fact we have seen her tackle"
problems which, a few years ago,
no one would ever have dared to
suspect her capable of undertake
ing, much less of solving perfect
lv and successfully. But she is
doing it. and apparently with
ease thus demonstrating herself,
not an adjunct" to man, but
his real partner" as God want
ed her to-be. And in all these
activities new to her, she does
lot seem to have forfeited any
of those qualities, peculiar to her
ex. On the contrary she shines
with a new and grander luster

it, which was always a feminine
trait, but never so daringly test
ed, and so usefully and wisely
welded as it is now, in the Red
Cross service and other kindred
works.
Hence, any thoughtful observ-
er, even though formerly preju-
diced, cannot help admitting that
if woman whether from choice
Gas before the war) or from dire
distress caused by the war, can
fill the place of Man so success
fully {and this no one can deny)
why then should she not make
a success of the Privilege, (or
call it "Right") of voting? She
has been thied in other things
and been found NOT-wanting,
why should she fail in this? AS
suredly there can be no harm in
citing her TRY. And as such
we go on record.
A PLAIN MAN.

Ruling Of Food Administrator
Abolishes Deliveries From
Meat Markets-GrOcers to
Confer on Further Re-
duction

In another column Of today's issue
of The Review is ruling of the local
food administrator authorizing the
disconti,Alance of meat deliveries
from butchers The administrator
stated this is the first action taken
in Morgan City regarding the deliv-
cry of orders from retail merchants
and further curtailment may be ex-
pected in the near future. A con-
ference of local grocers will be held
Monday night which will probably re-
suit in a reduction of deliveries from
this class Of stores.
That the number Of deliveries from
all retail stores should be reduced to
the minimum has for some time been
war measure especially recommend
ed by the state and parish Councils
OF Defense. They have repeatedly
pointed out that with the proper CO.
operation of the public, deliveries
from all kinds of retail establish
ments could be very materially de-
creased. thereby releasing FOR es-
sential work no small amount of man
power Patrons by overcoming a
habit incurred in the wasteful days
of the past can with small amount
of inconvenience carry home pack
ages which otherwise entails the mer-
chants expenditure of considerable
expense and loss of time.
Decreased delivery system has
been in vogue in number of cities
throughout the state and has brought
satisfactory results. While Morgan
City is little late in doing her bit
along this line, late is always better
than never, and the ever-patriotic
citizens of this city will soon be given
another opportunity to put over a
measure which will help win the war.

Notice

In conformity with recommenda-
tions of the state and parish Coun-
ellis of Defense relative to conserva,
ton of man power in commercial in
stitutions not directly concerned with
war work, the butchers of Morgan
City will make no deliveries of meat
commencing Monday, November 4.
In spirit of patriotism, the public
is requested to cooperate with these
merchants in the carrying out of this
ruling. Do not insist on having your
orders delivered as heretofore as the
dealers will not be permitted to make
any exceptions.

be avoided by those who make
pretenSe at wisdom. One class
represents the extreme Radicals
who are ever eager for Innovs-
tions, and make it their business
to see that New things are pro-
posed, and have no wish to Let
Well enough alone" The other
class represents the extreme
Conservative, who make a god
of LET well enough alone" and
do not desire and change what
soever, no matter how beneficial,
and wherever these have their
way, no legislation for improv-
ing conditions is possible, even
after all the rest of the public
is clamoring for the change.
Such people are Reactionaries,
"Stand-Patters" Of the Body

mother, a sister; where she is
and should be mistress, and be

Last Time Tonight
 to See Glddys BrockaOeU in "A Br0nded Soul"

tfC H bI uTtttttJ ooCtt.
 Gladys Brockwel in "A Branded Soul" and n big V comedy "He Never Toucl ed Me-" will be seen for the last ,ime at the Palace to- night.
 In her newest photoplay for Will fam Fox, "A Branded Soul" Gladys Brockwell plays the role of a mod ern St. Cecilia. The patron saint of music and of the blind is re- vivified in the Mexican peasant girl, Conchita. The sublime char acter of the saint shines through the eyes of the girl; and the story of her life follows the history Of the holy woman.
 Conchita shows now the power ofs faith serves to thrust aside the passion and fury of modern day pagan. St. Cecilia's story tells how her purity and goodness served to make clean the mind of an unholy Roman.
 Saint Cecilia, in the Catholic Church, is the patron of music and the blind. Her festival falls on No vember 22.
 The story of her life tells that she was a noble lady of Rome who became converted to Christianity about 200 A. D. Thereafter she went abroad among her fellow countrymen, trying to show them the true way to light.
 In her wanderings about the crooked streets of the big city, she was accosted one day by Valerian and his friends, who had just come from a ribald party. At first they

trial of Reinholf Frank Lahneman, farmer, of Fresno, Cal.
 This is said to be the first case on record, in which motion picture served to convict person of crime.
 Lahneman, who is fortythree years old was sentenced to five years in the penitentiary, as a dangerous enemy alien. The charge was based on remarks Lahneman was alleged to have made after witnessing the Jewel production.
 That picture is tommyrot. The man who made it should be shot, v he said, it was charged ,as he left the theatre Several indignant cit izens seized the man and placed him in .the hands of the Los Angeles police He later was held under a presidential warrant, and indicted by the United States Grand Jury.
 He was brought to trial before Judge Oscar A. Trippett, of the United States district court at Fres- no. Lahneman pleaded not guilty When the defense rested, Assistant United States District Attorney Lyle W. Rucker, of Los Angeles, asked that the jury be allowed to see the tlni l.ahncman was accused of de- nouneing. Judge Trippett setting aside precedent, dispatched Ralph Domiguez, the court carrier, to Los Angeles for a print of the film.
 Domiguez raced on his quest in fast automobile and obtained a print from Dave Bershon, the Jew el exchange manager at Los Ange- les. When he returned, the jury was marched under guard of U. s. deputy marshals to the theatre to see the picture. They seemed to be deeply impressed by Rupert Julian's portrayal of the Kaiser, and the scenes of outrages perpetrated by the Germans in territory they invaded.
 The jury was composed mostly Of elderly men. They wore seri- ous expression as they filed back int othe courtroom. Without de- liberation, they rendered verdict of guilty on each count of the in- dictment. Judge Trippett, pro- nouncing sentence, made a fierce denunciation of the defendant
