costume and make ready for a merry
time in New Orleans Mardi Gras Day,

preparing for a gay time
The same general rules which pre-.

will apply this Mardi Gras. Masks

moved by o'clock in the afternoon,
and no masking will be allowed at
night upon the streets. Masking at

CORPORAL GAYAUT BACK HOME

Corporal Gf you please) Gilbert
Gayaut is now at home to greet his
many friends and tell them a thing
or two about the war. AS soon as
Gilbert reached home, he arranged
with Mr.. Bodenger to have a minia-
ture war exhibit in the latter's show
window and no doubt, many of our
good citizens have seen a few of the
trophies brought home by this young
man. Gilbert has been partaking of
quite a few dinners since he is at
home and has not worn his welcome
out so if few of his friends fail to
see him before he gets away, kindly
do not think harsh of him. They
will have lots of time, for Gilbert is
always saying, Something seems to
tell me that am going to live a 1000

French money while over there and
on being asked why he did not adopt
something else, he said, he preferred

THE GREAT WAR SERVICE
PUBLISHING COMPANY.

| Mr.. Walter J. Mcnamara, native
of New Orleans, formerly in the con-
tracing business, who has a number
of years experience in the advertis-
| ing game, has started work on a
plan to publish the war record OF
every inhabitant of Orleans Parish,
who took part in the Great War,
whether in the military, naval, ma.
I rine, or civil service. To do this,
Mr. Mcnamara has formed the Great
War Service Record Publishing
Company, with offices in the Hen
men Building.
The Great War Service Record
Publishing Company is to publish a
book containing the photograph and
service record of each resident of
Orleans Parish, who has served the
United States during the war with
the Central Powers. In order to
do this effectively, it will be nee
essary that the photograph and rec
of every veteran, civil as well as
military, be furnished the company
at its office. Mr.. Mcnamara has
told a representative of The Herald
that he desires to get these photo
graphs and records as soon as pos
sible. and 20 facilitate the residents
of Algiers in this connection, he has
designated the drug store of John
B. Murphy, corner Pelican and Pa
cific Avenues, as the depository of
these records and photographs. Mr..
Mcnamara has emphasized the fact
that the publishing of these photo
graphs and records does not obligate
the person whose photograph and
record is published to buy book.
There are no obligations whatever,
he says, implied or expressed, in this
regard What he does want, how
ever, is the photograph and record
of each and every veteran.
The idea appears to be good one,
and its success depends upon the CO.
operation Mr.. Mcnamara receives
from those who have seen service in
the great war The quicker he re-
ceives the photographs and records.
he says, the quicker he will be able to
publish the book which judging from
the prospectus. examined by a rep
resentative of The Herald, will be an
ornament to any library as a speci-
men of higher class bookbinding as
we'll as ready reference to the
war record of every New Orleans and
Algiers resident.
