Town; Young Folks
Harken to Call of
the Wild
Big Wild Animal Show Arrives
to Give One Afternoon and
One Night Exhibition
Here Today

Circus in town, Could any news
be more thrilling to the younger gen.
eneration OF Morgan City? The
writer thinks not, and further, it is
most interesting to the older folks
as we'll For where could one find
greater gathering of interesting peo-
pies and animals than at a circus. Ac-
tors from the four corners of the
world make up the Gentry Bros. re-
pertoire, and every known denizen
of the wilds is represented in the
number shown at this show
This popular show has been en-
larged and improved in every depart
ment. A complete programme is
presented by the Domestic Animal
Actors. augmented by complete
wild animal circus. This portion of
the entertainment is given in large
steel arena and the lions, leopards,
pumas and other wild animals are put
through their various acts by Lady
Trainers. This feature has been add
ed to Gentry Bros. show since their
last appearance in this city.
On account of the railway conges-
tion, it looed for a while last winter
as though the children's favorite ex-
hibition, as we'll as other circuses
would not be able to. make their US
ual tours this season. However, Di-
rector General of Roads McAdoo
ruled that the circuses might travel
as usual, as he considers amusement
practically necessity during these
strenuous times In consideration of
which, the Gentry show has been en-
gagged and improved in every depart
ment, a complete wild animal circus
now forming an important part of the
program. .~s-

should be careful to wear only mod
erately high-heeled shoes"
Knocking the fashion, as usual"
said the girl, wondering if she had Sc
lected the most becoming frock at
the dressmaker's.
You have observed the bowlegged
result of the present vogue for short
skirts. :. You shall now hear the
cause" And he, too made himself
comfortable by means of cigar and
a sofa pillow when the heel is lift
ed as far as it is when raised by an
ordinarily high-heeled shoe, the great
muscles that go straight up the calf
do the. work But when it is raised
a bit higher these faithful workers
go on strike and throw the task to
their neighbor at the outside of the
knee"
What of it,"
Like a sensible human being, this
muscle goes about its work the short
est way. Its route runs from the
knee to tn ankle and then diagonally
aross the floor of the foot arch. So
when it gives a pull up comes the
heel and out goes the knee"

Jitney Dance on
New Ferry Tomorrow

A new and novel entertainment is
scheduled for Morgan Citians tomor-
row in the form of a jitney dance
aboard the new ferry boat NJ. D.
Shannon. Music will be furnished by
the Toerner Jazz Band, and the cou-
Piles will dance merrily DER the rip
pling wavelets that glimmer in the
faint moon light as the ferry skins
the water to and fro between Ber-
wick and Morgan City, as the poet
would probably say.
The dancing will be on the upper
deck of the boat, which is one of the
finest ferries in the south. A space
will be enclosed for the dancers, and
each time the band cuts loose with
one Of those dizzy jazz melodies, the
gentlemen dancers will dig out jit.
The dance has been advertised ex-
tensively in the neighboring towns,
and it is thought that couples from
many of these places will be present
Capt John Drackett invites all those
who are lovers of the Terpsichorean
art to attend.
The Shannon is being decorated by
Hy. Wallace, Berwick's sign artist,
who is painting many artistic ads on
the sides of the boat It is needless
to say that a crowd will attend the
dance tomorrow night.

" Easter

It is Easter the gladness Of Easter i:
round me!
1t is Easter, the sweetness of Easter
has found me!
The newly leaved boughs Of the trees
are low swinging,
The birds have come back to theis
homes and are singing.
The blossoms missed have come
back to the meadow,
Every last cloud has gone, and gon'
with its shadow!
And each grief that was crowdinR
about me and showing
Is gone for my loves shall come back
to my loving.
1t is Easter; the lilies of Easter ar.
swaying!
And the babies, their tresses all wind
blown, are playing!
And their wee fingers fashion me gar
lands of clover
1t is Easter-I grieved but my griev.
ing is over!
For the ones whom I loved, and who
left me back yonder,
Have grown nearer with Easter,
grown nearer and fonder;
And when the breeze touches the
tree-boughs low-swinging
I almost feel their loving, ! almost
hear their singing.
And SO all the gladness of Easter is
round me,
Its gladness, its love and its peace
have all found me;
To the ones whom l grieved for my
arms are now nearer
They were far and apart, now they're
nearer and dearer!
And each Easter that comes brings
me near to the going
I will find them and love them. l
know they are knowing!
l count up the casters until l have
found them,
With my lips on their hair and my
arms tight around them.

Elks Cooperate
With Uncle Sam

der a cooperative arrangement will
the. Benevolent and Protective Order
of Elks, as authorized by act of Con
gress, has embarked on a program o1
! vocational eduation which is intend
ed to vocationally train or re-educatt
every one of it's disabled soldiers
sailors and marines without expense
to these war heroes.
1t has been found that no matter
what physical disability man may
| have suffered, he can be SO trained OF
re-educated as to overcome the ham
dicap and enjoy the same or greater
earning capacity he had before being
wounded. There are more than soc
vocations open to these disabled men,
and nearly 800 educational institu-
tions throughout the country have
opened their doors to the work. All
expenses for books, tuition and liv-
ing, with allowances to dependents
are provided.
When the work of putting this vo-
action law into effect was begun, it
was found that it would be necessa-
ry to interest some private agency
to make it complete success. This
was because the cases of hundreds of
wounded men were still pending be-
fore the War Risk Insurance Board
and the men themselves were with
out money to meet living. expenses
while in vocational training. There
were also hundreds disabled or dis
eased before the law went into effect
or for various technical reasons were
outside its provisions. In addition to
these were the cases of United States
citizens who fought in the armies of
the Allies and were wounded, while
the law provided only for those
wounded while fighting with the
American forces.
Thus there are many thousands of
disabled American soldiers, sailors
and marines to be vocationally train.
ed who must be provided for. either
temporarily or throughout this per-
iod of training, by some private
agency The law itself makes pro-
vision for a cooperative arrangement
of this kind. The Federal Board for
Vocational Education, in charge of
this work, has selected the Benevo-
lent and Protective Order Of Elks,
working through the Elks War Re-
lief Commission, for this cooperative
assistance. Former Governor John
K. Tener, of Pennsylvania, is at the
head of the Elks War Relief Com
mission.
Every Elks lodge throughout the
country has been instructed to ap-
point a special committee to be
known as the Soldiers Friend Com
mittee, to assist in this work. Its
members are instructed to cooperate
with the nearest District Office Of
the Federal Board for Vocational
Education, of which there are four
teen throughout the country, and with
the Home Service Section of the
American Red cross. Every wound
ed hero of the war is to be personal
ly seen and urged to at once take ad-
vantage of this offer of free voca-
tional sducation. Its importance,
not only to the disabled men them
selves and members of their immed-
late families, and no less to the ma
tion itself, is at once apparent.
