1896 Used Y. W.
During Past Year

The beautiful Y. w. C. A. building
was given by Frank H. Goodyear and
Mrs. Daniels, his sister, as memoir
ial to their mother. It was through
Mrs. William H. Sullivan's interest
and personal suggestions to them
that this gift was made.
No other city of this size has for
its women and girls building such
as this.
Mrs. Sullivan, who came here at
the beginning Of Bogalusa's history,
always had the interest of the peo-
pie in her heart. For a long time
she coveted such a home as this,
where we could gather, get acquaint-
ed, work together and play together.
She lived to see her dream come true
and to help make it true. This
building is known as the beauty
spot" of Bogalusa, and truly it is. It
is also known as the most artisticallg
furnished Y. w. C. A. building in
the Southland.
May, 1917, saw this Friendship
House turned over to the Y. W. c. A.
for use.
Not one cent did it cost the peo-
pie Of Bogalusa, nor one effort Of
theirs in securing it.
It has been said the women and
girls have become better acquainted
here than ever before and many
friendships have been formed within
its portals.
In the first eight months of its his
tory there was total attendance OF
S1,734. In 1918, there was an at
tendance in the departments as fol
lows:
! Religious work, 499; social depart
ment, 1,151; educational, 179; physi.
cal, 1856; girls work, 5,415; mem.
bership department, 642 member
ships; letters written and received
Ats; calls made for Y. w. C. A., 100
board and committee meetings, III
attendance at committee meetings
823; lunches eaten at noon by schoo
girls in the Y. w. C. A., ALL; at
tendance at outside meetings, sucl
as Liberty Loan, Thrift Stamps
United War Work, Red Cross
Churches, Mothers Honor Commits
sion, kindergarten, Domestic Scienc,
and Art, Stenography, ETC., 1906
total attendance, S9,966.
In order that this Y. w. G. A. may
be the influence and help wished By
those who gave it, and those who
worked that we might have it, i
necessary that the people to whom
it was given shall come forward anf
help support it. Every city IN, tn

Baptist Drive
Meeting Success

From every section of Louisiana
there comes the encouraging news OF
large contributions being made to the
5000, 900 campaign for the Baptist
Bible Institute Of New Orleans. The
fashion of "over the top" and still
going has a contagion about it that
is becoming statewide.
Many churches with large appor-
tionments have already raised their
full quota and more. Big business
men throughout the state are recos-
nizing the merits of this institute and
large gifts ranging from $1,000 up
wards are being made.
The great mass Of the Bible con-
stituents of Louisiana, however, are
men and women of ordinary finan-
cial standing. These are responding
in a sacrificial and large-hearted
way. Thousands of dollars are be-
ing gathered in from the small con-
tributor.
With the course Of study that CEN
tiers around the study Of the Bible as
the inspired word of God; providing
religious instruction suited to the
needs of the varied constituency in
educational equipment and for all
classes of Christian workers; train
ing for service by training in service
the Baptist Bible Institute makes a
broad appeal to Christian citizenship
With the open Bible for all the world
and the open Bible in all the Ian
guages Of the world, and Christian
workers training in Bible knowledge
in their own tongue and for mission
workers among their own people, this
| institution is making heroic appea
to those who are interested in Chris.
tian conquest.
The provision made by the manage
ment of this campaign for accepting
| Liberty Bonds of the fifth series
ought to appeal to the patriotic anC
/ missionary spirit of our citizenship
| This affords an opportunity to d.

our people are planning to invest
/ largely in the fifth series, Liberty
i Loan bonds. These bonds are to b
accepted at face value and viii be
come part of the permanent endow

The interest, accruing on these
bonds win be used in training hun

who have been patriotic to the gov

that the adj ption of his color schemes

one with walls of sunlight yellow and the
ceiling sky blue, with blue net curtains
at the windows, Mr.. Prosser declar d that
his purpose is 20 bring outdoors inside.

he said. 'Instead | am installing these

Then the color specialist led The way to
the other room, in which the dominating
color was apple blossom pink.

What Many Especially Need.

In these days of strain and stress, anxi-
ETY. and worry, many people become pale,
nervous, dyspeptic, in word, all run
down. Their condition calls especially
for iron-bst iron in form in which it is
pleasant to take, agreeable to the stom-
ach, easily assimilated and non-consti-
pating. Iron is combined in this form
with nux, celery, pepsin and other tonlcs
and digestives in Peptiron, a real iron
tonic, which is accomplishing a great
deal in restoring health and strength,
vitality, vigor and vim.
Iron is indispensable to the perfect nu-
triton of the. body. Peptiron supplies IT
in therapeutic doses, and in remarkabi
short time seems to make new and per-
fectly working system out of an old and
broken down one, enrichlng the blood,
giving good color to the lips, cheeks dnc
ears, and Frightening the eyes, Peptiron
is a product of the G. |. Hood Co., and Is

CAT JUMPS ON KINGS BACK
Editor Told of Incident by Captain Mer
Ram, Who DIned With Royalty.

CHICAGO--A cat may not only look at
a king but may even jump on his back
and sink its claws into his shouiders-if
he be the king of Italy In proof Capt.
Charles E. Merriam, formerly IN charge
Of American propaganda III Italy, told
Italian editors who rendered him a dinner
recently the story of the cat that jumped
on Hing Victor Emmanuel.
The king was gracious enough to in
vite me TO dine with him and his suite at
his headquarters near Padua." Captain
Merriam said. 81 had a long conversa-
ton with him before dinner concerning
my work in Italy. He speaks excellent
English and asked many questions.
Later, while we were dining, was sit
ting at his right, large Maltese cat-the
royal cat-wlth beautiful coat of fur,
suddenly leaped up on my lap | quietly
nudged him off my knee. To my surprise
he leaped upon the kings back.
THE king uttered an exclamation. |
seized the cat and pulled him off, although
he hung ON for dear life. The king laugh
ed heartily. | said:
Y our majesty, this means either very
good or very bad luck for our common
cause
1T is very good luck for me, replied
the king
