HUNS USING DOGS
TO WARN THEM OF
COMING ATTACKS

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, Friday, Feb. S.-(By the AS
sociated Press.)-The Germans are using
dogs in their front line to warn them of
the approach of patrols opposite the
American sector. A German dog listen
err early this morning prevented one of
our patrols from executing a daring
stroke. Two corporals who were con-
cerned in il have been mentioned in
official reports for their spirit and cool
ness.
Accompanied by two privates the cor
porals left a large patrol in a certain
place in an abandoned trench in No
Mans Land last midnight and went On
to the German lines. They first found
a smooth wire barrier which had been
shot to pieces by the American fire. Fiji
teen yards further on they came upon
the German wire entanglements. The
men were inspecting an opening in
the wire when dog apparently chained
on the other side began to bark. A dug
out door opened quickly in trench and
a gruff voice was heard to say "Fertig!"
meaning ready. Suddenly a brilliant
rocket went up and the Americans threw
themselves fiat on the ground just as a
machine gun began to spout bullets in
their direction. A few feet away a
heavy object struck the ground. This
was found later to be a bomb which had
been hurled from the German trench.
The corporals stayed where they were
for some time and listened to the Ger
man soldiers talk among themselves.
One of the corpora4s knows German and
speaks il, so what the Germans said was
understood After the Germans retired
again to their dugout the smaller patrol
rejoined the large one, which soon after
was the target for fifteen or twenty Ger
man shells, but no one was hit,
Mumps again have appeared in the
trenches. A number of soldiers are af-
flicted as is one member of the corps of
newspaper correspondents

Hold Hatchet Over Their
Heads IF Hens Won't Lay

DALTON, Ga, Feb. 9.-Hens may not
have the power of speech, but they can
understand what persons say, according
to the belief of Arthur Rudolph, and he
states the grounds for his belief.
Mr. Rudolph was feeding his flock of
hens, and remarked that as all of them
had stopped laying altogether, he in
tended eating them and getting new
blood. The following day there were
seven eggs in the nest where there
had been none for many weeks. Since
that time the quantity of eggs has
shown a gratifying increase, and the
hens have earned a longer life.

Iulates the conduct of gambling
CUBS thruout the parish.
In the first place it is beyond the
power of the Police Juries to legis
late on that subject. Police .Turies
possess no general Legislative pow
ers and they cannot exercise any
powers except such as are special
| Iy delegated tothem. This want of
power renders the ordinance plain
nulIity, and makes it's provisions
which are intended to regulate the
conduct of clubs useless, because
they cannot be enforced. But this
is one Of its sma Hest faults.
1t repeats, by implication, that
article of the Constitution thru viii
ch the people of Louisiana have de
clared that Gambling is vice, and
the legislature shall pass laws to sup
press it."
And yet every member of tn
Police Jury took a solemn oath to :
support the Constitution and laws
of this State
IT. Is also contrary 70 the shirt
if not the letter, of the act known
as the Sunday Law, because it au
thorIzes gambling clubs to operate
on the Sabbath day, and permits
them to keep open more hours on
that day chan on week days.
The ordinance reyerses the settl.
ed policy OF this state on the subject
of gambling, as declared by the Con
stitution, the various acts of the
legislature and the Courts.
1t would be bad at any time; it is
doubly bad now when every effort
is being made to teach the people
economy, industry and thrift, in
order to enable them to support
the most terrible war that was ever
known; for it is a recognized fact
that gambling is the deadiiest foe
to the virtues lust mentioned.
1t is to be hoped that the Police
Jury will. at the first opportunity,
repeal the ordinance.

That Natchitoches' quota was
overscribed in the Red Cross drive
the past week and went on the
honor roll early in the game, was
nothing more than was expected
and proved not only the patriotism
thatssis so strcng in our people, but
the splendidly organized system
that the campaign managers plan
ed and carried out so well. The
sum total far surpassed the expec-
ions of the most sa1guine, but the
Red Cross cannot be provided with
too much money and while at this
writing it is impossible to tell ex-
actly What the amount really is
it is safe to say. that our old par,
