BOY SCOUT WEEK.

This is Boy Scout Week. All
the other patriotic causes have
had their inning and gone "over
the top, most of them with the
push of the Boy Scouts behind
them.
Mr.. E. C. Willard, chairman,
Shouldered the task of raising the
Welsh quota of associate mem-
berships for this great institution
all by his lonesome. He reports
that the quota has been filled and
then some.
In the United States there are
ten million boys between the ages
of IL and 81 years. OF that num-
Der only $4,000 belong to the
Boy Scouts organization. The
object of the present associate
membership drive is the ultimate
lining up of majority of the
boys of the land in the organic
alton which helps to develop
them mentally, morally and phys
ically and to make of them NOR,
useful citizens.

PRESERVING COMPANY
HAS QUESTIONABLE
MODUS OPERANDl
Their Tale of Great Dividends is
Quite Alluring.

The following letter received
recently by Parish Demonstration
Agent Fondren from thee Stat
Horticultural Department sounds
a note of warning that may we'll
be needed, and should have been
broadened to include number
of other classes Of purportedly
industrial institutions that are be-
ing exploited by the sale of stock
certificates:
Dear sir:
| have had occasion to write
YOU before concerning the Great
Southern Preserving Company, q
concern that is composed of a
bunch of unscrupulous stock
statesmen. Their modus opcrandi
| is as follows: They will so into
a community and advise the mer-
chants, bankers and farmers thai
they are going to erect a sweet
potato storage house at some con
venient point in their section
that they will buy from the farm
ers, at one dollar a buShel, all tht
sweet potatoes that they viii
grow. They will claim that the!
are going to erect similar storag'
houses throughout all the south
ern states. They then get bus.
and sell all The stock they posi-
bly, can, telling each purchaser 0
stock that he will share in tn
dividends derived from all tn
houses.
After getting hold of all tn
cash they can, they will erect
! flimsy structure at cost of one
fourth or possibly one-half OF tn
amount of money that they haV
collected and then move on
: greener fields. They claim t
have a remarkable patented pr'
; cess for curing potatoes, consis
ing of special machinery that the
). will install in the houses.
These people have pulled o
: several shady deals in this sta
u YOU are therefore warned again
l. them. Should any of them sho
! up in your parish, advise vol
/ people to have nothing to do Wi
~ them.
, If you think it necessary W
V can have the banker in the col
n munity in which these people t
~ to operate, to communicate WI
y the bank of Giennlora, the bal
u of Winfield or the bank of p
+ lock, all of whom have had de-
IN ings with these people.
le Our storage house work is CO
- ing along spIendidly and II
nc any time can be of service

INTEREST WILL BE DUE
ON FIRST LIBERTY LOAN.

Thousands of persons and cor
porations in the Sixth Federal Re-
serve District who bought First
Liberty Bonds will have an OPP
portunity of turning interest into
more interest on June 18th re-
marked Mr.. E. c. Willard manag-
er of the CalcaSieu National Bank
the other day. i
On that day, he said, the Treas
ury department makes semi-an-
nuaI interest payments. The
Treasury Department is urging
the bond holders to reinvest this
interest in Thrift and War Saving
Stamps and keep their dollars
working.
Twenty years ago certain man
owned the clothes he stood in and
that was about all. Now he is
worth S10,000.OO-he saved and
put his money out at interest,
The first year he saved only $50
| 90 and the second year 5000.
| What he saved was an average
of $500 a week, but that amount
ed to around 100000 in twenty
years. The other 100000 is in,
tereSt. When you set your dollar
working it grows slowly at first
but ever a little faster until final
Iy interest outruns the saving
War Saving Stamps do more thai
add dollar to dollar-they begin
to multiply.

THE SOLDIERS RETURN
CIV. Lomax ChildreSs)


| never used to think the world,
Had half so fair a scene,
Till yesterday topped the hill,
And saw the valley green.
The little house that nestled there,
With roses at the door, I,
Was fairer far than palaces, l
On any foreign shore.
The silver stream went singing
~--~ still
Its music soft and low,
As when my bare feet dabbled
there,
The years of long ago.
And at the swinging gate there
stood
The sunlight on her face,
My plain old fashioned mother,
In the old familiar place,
No picture ever painted,
With brushes dipped in gold,
Could tell the beauty Of her
smile
How tight her arms could hold.
oh | have fought for freedom
Where the charging legions
went,
Across the world of distance
!, Where the StrS and stripes
we're sent,
But back | came to peace at last
With holy memories blent,
To find the JOY of childhood,
In the house of sweet content

Martin -McLees.

A wedding of more than ordl-
nary interest to The people OF this
section occurred at the Catholic
church in Welsh Monday morn
ing, when Miss Ruth McLees be-
came the bride 'of Dr.. Claude A.
Martin, the Rev. J, P. Ferret per-
forming the ceremony.
1t was a quiet wedding, attend
ed only by the contracting pratles
the Rev. and the necessary wit
nesses, but it was the climax OF
a delightful romance that has
been watched with much interest
by the many friends OF the couple.
Both are too well known to re-
pure introduction or elaboration
on their good qualities. DR.. Mar
tin has virtually grown up in this
community. Finishing his medl-
cal course in 1914, he at once be-
gan practice here with good sue

tered the war he promptly offer
ed his services to his country. Be

especially honored by the war OF

4 glory attained in his military car
eer did not, however, cause hlr
! Ito lose interest in his home towI
and it is pleasant to note that, a
ter a short honeymoon and tn
completion of a post sradua,
course in needles he and his brio
q will return to Welsh to maj
their home.
The bride although a native
Ruston, has been resident
Welsh the past eight years durll
which time she has taught in Il
& Welsh high school. She is a
complished and in all a We
worthy bride. Her happiness W
be shared by a large circle
