a proper measure of value upon the
kind of work that is being done by
the Commissions on Training Camp
Activities. America will win the war
because of our efficient man-power,
because our armies in the field, in the
factories and on the farms are COM
posed of the strongest, cleanest and
truest men and women, and that VIC
tory will be an everlasting tribute to
the moral as well as the mental and
physical efficiency of the nation. The
War Department Commission on
Training Camp Activities has pointed
the way.

If woman suffers from weak back,
nervousness or dizziness pains affict
her, the best tonic and corrective is one
made up of native herbs and made with

strong and sick women well. 1t Is the
prescription of DIR. Pierce, used by HIM
in active practice many years and now
sold by almost every druggist IN the

Answering School Teacher" and
also Taxpayer" wish to say that |
would like for them to look over the
list Of taxpayers in this parish, and
they will find that am one of the
largest individual taxpayers, paying
taxes on full assessment.
My record as a member OF the
school board, and Of the police jury,
will prove that was instrumental in
improving schooleconditions in Don
aldsonville as weA as throughout the
parish. Often / was told that / was
too liberal in appropriations for the
schools, and that there is no end to
the demand of the schools, but | al
ways stood up for the schools.
The Elise Memorial School bears
testimony to prove thatf back up my
interest in schools with deeds, for the
benefit of the public.
/ have never opposed any tax levy
or measure for school purposes, and
if it is necessary to increase the taxes
to keep the schools on high. stan
dard, l, as one of the largest in
lividual taxpayers in the parish OF
Ascension, am ready to pay my por.
ton of such school taxes with good
will, and to support any necessary
measure with my vote.

years, the late Gen. Bullion having
introduced a bill to that effect while
in the state legislature. However,
if their charge is correct, those rpro-
fesl ed Democrats, Messrs. Car '5re,
Rehss, and Armitage, ought to resign
their SEATS and give place to aen sui
ficientl. fair,minded to ref1ec the Will
Of their constituents. Mr.. Cambre
has especially deserted the people as
well Us the platform on which he ran
and by whom he was elected. These
men, then, havesd eliberately delivered
the control Of the police jury over to
the Republican element without re-
gard to their previous political pro-
fession as true Democrats. Let these
gentlemen explain their conduct.
When the initial action was taken
in this celebrated case as to the seat
ingl9f the additional members from
thprsseventh and eighth wards, there
Fs an understanding that MesstIy.
5Eeuss and Landry should alternate y
Mt as president. This agreement
was suddenly terminated and Mr..
Newman wars made president. About
this time the salary Of the secretary
Mr.. Klos, was given a substantial
raise, while his cousin showed sud,
den change in his choice for the pres.
idency. Now some people might con.
meet this raise in salary with the
change in Mr.. Reuss toward that Of
fee.
Now if the action Of these men j:
to be construed as an indication o.
their attitude to the New River PEG
pie, and it certainly is, bow can It p
taken as other than a omost hostile
one? Who is responsible for the at
titude of these people? When tn
New River man was president the op
position was represented on the II
nance committee BY Mr.. Landry
Where are the New River men on th
opposition's finance committee? Yes
| the tick eradication committee ma
two. or a minority, on it. Yet tn
is the section that will require tn
; most attention and in all reaso
!, should have the greater number
members. But not SO long as thei
!. is an appointment to be made WI
they be allowed this privilege.
As DEMOCRAT.
