Confined from last week.

ing Of the last scripture in last
week s CRESsET that God was
not looking for those wild grape S
to come nor expecting them.
Hence, they we're '1licgitimate.
Now John said Clin was Of
that wicked one; it becomes
necessary for US to understand
something about what is ment
in this first we must say to our
readers that Satan is the real
wicked one, but in order to raise
up children the Devil must have
an agent TO work through.
And IN order to get at the
truth we shall ask you to read
this, language Of David.
For | was envious at the
foolish when | saw the prosper
ity of the wicked,
For there are no lands in their
death but their strength is firm.
FPS. 73-3-4.)
Here David speaks OF the
wicked: and they had to be diff
erent people to the Israelites =,
for the Israelites had bands in
their death. But these GentileS
might oe as wicked as they
could be, there was in bands in
their death. This is the kind OF
a wicked One spoken of by John
for it was the Devil in the heart
of a Gentle man that dec Aived
Eve Hence. John said "of that
wicked one". Again we shal
quote you this Scripture tt
further our claim.
The wicked are estranged
from the womb; they go astray
as soon as they be born speak
ing lies. Their poison is Ike the
poison of serpent Jhey are like
the deaf adder that stoppeth
her ear: (Ps. 53-3-4.(
Here is a plain fact that CaiI
was CT the wicked one: realizing
that he had t. be accepted o.
God And this is the reason
Why John spoke in this name
"and by this tn
children of God; and the childre1
of the wicked one is manifested
Again it is said,

Boosters Bond Subscriptions

In past issues of the Banner we have
had something to say about suhScrip-
tons by residents Of this parish to the
two Liberty Bond issues. particularly
the second. \ statement as given out
to the press gave BosSier credit for
Il subscription of only $13G3O to that
issue. Recently we have heard the
matter discussed here and there by
public spirited men having the welfare
of the bond issues most at heart.
We have not the data ut hand to give
the total amount subscribed by resi-
dents of the parish in the two bond
sales. However, these figures we can
give with certainty as to their correct
ness: The Plain Dealing Bank pur-
chased Liberty Bonds in the amount
Of 5000: its customers took S24OO
worth. The Bank Of Benton's Sul,scrip-
tons thus far total 5000: those of its
customers $1,000. There's a total of
$1,000, to say nothing about the short
term certificates of Indebtedness taken
by these two 900 and
$15.GOO respectively.
Other subscriptions that we have
good reason to believe were not taken
through either of the above named
hanks were: J. Il. McDade. $500; A..
Curtis, $3.50: Ross f. McDade, $500 !:
Dr. ID. J. McAnn. $1,000: ]. H. Van
Hoose. jr.. 500; X. II. RaineS. $500 ::
H. y. Cornell. 500: J. ]. lewiston.
$1,000: II. l.. Skannal. $1,000; ]. &. Nc
Dade, $500: w. f. Cornell. $500: ]. G.
Logan, $500: w. H. 4 {. b. hodges.
$4,000: Il. Il. Hill. 800: ID. {. Elston.
$3.50: T. W. Bledsoe. $1,000. and Alex
Caplis. $4,000.
There's grand total of $7j.33:O sub
Scribed to the two bond issues by resi-
dents of the parish (not including the
two short-term loans by its hankS)
and if all figures were available we
dare say they would show Il much
greater total.
Certainly it may he said that our
citizens have not been recreant toward
| their duty in this respect. But there
| is another bond issue to cOme-a big
one-and it is well that we begin to
marshal our forces and get ready for
it. The bond issue must not fail-and
| it will not. Whatever Boosters quota
may he announced to be let us see that
it is overSubscribed. as in the past. and
the Banner wishes to again take occa-
sion to urge that every subscriber to
the third issue of Liberty Bonds i'll
siStS that BOssier shall have credit for
the same. Also. report all subScrip-
lions to Mr.. w. IL. Hodges. jr.. Of Elm
Grove. Parish Chairman of the organi-
Zation gone into for the purpose of so.
Letting. and we are going to ask him
to keep the Banner regularly informed
as to the subscriptions so that they
may he given in print. That. is the
names of those who subscribe will he
given. hut not the Sums opposite their
names. What the public is most inter
eSted in is the total. and we shall ask
for this information for puElicat ton
every week.
