DELIVERING LAUNDRY


The convenience of patrons, the
advice of the war councils and econ
omy of management urge the local
steam laundry to avoid unnecessary
trips in calling for or delivering bun
dies ef laundry. TO this end patrons
are being requested to serve dou-
bic purpose by having a fixed time
for the laundry drivers to ''pick up
and to have some one at the home
to receive and pay for deliveries. In
a measure, to oblige many patrons
near the depot, arrangements have
been made with Liberty Shop, located
on Alabama avenue, east Of the City
Drug Store, to hold bundles of laun-
dry for those Of that section of the
city, who find it quite convenient to
call there, paying no extra price for
the accommodation.
By phoning 81, attention win be
given to calls, and service will be as
prompt as possible.

Downing Urges
Great Vigilance
Dear Doctor:

Dear Doctor:
Fifty-six replies from municipal
and parish health officers, in an
swer to inquiry Of yesterday, were
received this morning me state
ments indicate that influenza is still
prevalent and the opinion is ex-
pressed by a number that the pro-
hibition on open meetings should not
be removed in sections where there
are yet a number of persons sick with
influenza.
The State Board of Health concurs
in this opinion. While so many cases
exist there is danger of recrudescence
and should this occur, there might be
even proportionately larger death
roll than in the past few weeks.
Among the colored people the dis
ease is reported in many sections on
the increase. You are asked to watch
the situation and not to permit gath
erings or even church services if the
disease seems to prevail widely among
them.
From the reports this morning it is
not deemed safe to recall or revoke
the ban on places of amusement and
schools. On open air or church meet
ings we cannot rule for special COM
munities. This comes within the ju-
risdiction of the local health officer.
The State Board Of Health, acting
with the United States Public Health
Service and local boards, desires to
permit reopening Of places of amuse-
ment and schools as soon as it is safe
to do So The order how prohibiting
the opening Of these places is state
wide and must remain SO until the
situation clears up. When permits
sion is given to reopen, due notice
win be sent you, the State Depart
ment of Education and the newspa
pers. We welcome suggestions and
expressions Of opinion, but ask that
you do not wire or write for special
permission to reopen before the ban
is lifted for the state.
Let us not feel secure too early.
Impress upon your people the great
Importance of continued vigilance
land earnest cooperation.
Yours very truly,
OSCAR BOWLING, President.

the day the season opens and reports
from every section are to the effect
that there is an abundance Of birds
The past season was a splendid feed

HOME MADE FUEL

Did YOU ever try making bri-
quettes? People in European coun-
tries, particularly in Switzerland have
been utilizing waste paper in this
manner for some time. 1t is sur
prising. too. how useful these bri-
quettes are and how easily they are
made Instead of throwing away
out-of- date newspapers and pieces
of wrapping paper that have served
their purpose. why not save them
and make them do double duty-not
the same kind over again, of course,
but something different? Acting as
fuel is the something different.
To use waste paper as fuel, it
must be made over into briquettes.
The directions are simple. First,
tear or cut the paper into small
pieces-cardboard may be used also
and put it into tub. Pour boil
ing water over il next and let it
soak over night or until IT is very
soft Then drain of any surplus
water, as much water as possible, in
fact. and taking up a handful of
the paper pulp at a time squeeze all
the water out and mold IL into a
small ball. like a popcorn ball.
These brisquettes, as the French and
Swiss people call them. must then be
thoroughly dried. either in the sun
or in a not 0yen-nOt hot enough
10 burn them. however. Those who
have made them, say that there is
very little time and labor involved
in the making, and that they may
be stored away in a dry place and
kept until needed They get their
name from those little briquettes OF
coal which anyone who mas ever
lived i'm France doubtless remem-
hers well as commonly burned in
