BogaIusa Scrap Co.
Always on The Job

About two years ago EIr. S. Pu-
liter started the Bogalusa Scrap
Company, with main office and
warehouse in this city, located at the
corner of Shenandoah and Ontario
streets, on the Northwest side.
This property is 75x150 feet
(about 10000 square feet), afford
ing ample space for sorting and pack
ing, and is served by a spur from the
! N. o. G. N. railroad, insuring prompt
loading and shipping facilities.
The business was a success from
the start and has kept Mr.. Pulitzer
and his sons, Benny and J. G., busy
overseeing the work of buying and
selling and shipping, justifying the
choice of Bogalusa for the headquar-
tiers of the firm, and building up a
flourishing trade in all class of scrap
metals, rags, sacks, barrels, bot
ties, hides, furs, rubber-in fact, any
materials for which a market may be
found, including used or partly de-
molished farm implements, machin-
cry, etc. Farmers with errands in
Bogalusa find that. the trip can be
made profitable by loading the wagon
with any scrap material, such an in
dicated above, and stopping at the
office Of the Scrap Company, where
appraisal will be made and the high
est cash price paid for ali marketable
articles.
New Orleans connection is main
tanned at 2809 Louisiana avenue in
that city, thus keeping in touch with
every phase of the demand for scrap
throughout the United tSates.
This firm has added a department
for the buying and selling Of second
hand furniture and household goods,
which opens up wide field, there
being large district to be served in
this line alone.
A motor truck and team are main
tanned for the collecting and deliv-
ering anywhere in the city, and by
telephoning No. Isl a representative
will cali promptly and make APP
praisal.
Mr.. Pulitzer, the founder and
manager Of the business is a firm
believer in the future of Bogalusa,
and has identified himself with move
ments for the advancement of the
city and vicinity, being of great as
sistance in the handling of Red Gross
salvage work. He hopes to soon
build and make a home here.

Holmes Store Is
Very Busy Place


One short wear has sufficed to
build up trade in staple and fancy
groceries, which has outgrown the
original salesroom and compelled re-
moval into an adjacent and much
larger store. This is the experience
Of Mr.. D. B. Holmes, Main street,
Richardsontown, who started about a
year ago with a small stock and has
added lines as fast as the expanding
trade required, until now the sales
room includes groceries, fruits, vege-
tables, butter, eggs, leading brands
of canned goods, candies, cigars, Gig
arettes and tobaccos, all selected with
care to give the best quality and
lowest prices-in keeping with the
maxim: eff there were better brands
| would sell them"
Mr.. Holmes buys farm produce,
paying the highest cash prices. BY
giving his undivided personal atten-
ton, courteous treatment to all, the
volume of business has increased I'M
til the new showroom will afford
about four times the original space,
giving ample room to make more at
tractive display. Orders may be
given over the telephone mo. 1897,
and will be delivered promptly any
where in the city, hence you are as
near this store as your phone. and
pr ces are guaranteed.

Builds Big Trade;
Is Fine Citizen

Less than SIX years ago Mr.. Albert
s. Anderson started business in this
city. locating at the corner of Shen-
andoah and Ontario, in Northwest
EogaIusa, handling at the beginning
a small line Of wagons and buggies.
The business increased rapidly from
wear to year, until it was necessary
TO seek larger quarters, and about
two years ago a spacious building
was erected across the street from
the old location, with private spur
from the railroad for the prompt
handling of car lots. This building
has floor spaces of about $4,000
square feet and has made it possible
TO include the wholesale and retail de-
partments, the wareroom and the of
flee under one roof, features that
help to reduce the overhead expense
which is reflected in lower prices to
the +rade.
Here will be found very complete
stools of wagons, buggies, harness,
feed, fertilizers, as well as groceries,
lardH and produce for the city and
vicinity, the patronage in some lines
extending beyond the parish limits.
Several important agencies have
been secured, such as Thornhill wag-
ons, Gamer buggies and Hercules
buggies, with supplies for each, en-
abling Mr.. Anderson to distribute
these famous lines throughout this
district promptly and at the lowest
cost to buyers.
The year 1918 was the banner one
IN point of sales, although the indi-
cations are already pronounced for a
greater volume in 1919.
A very large quantity of fertilizers
is handled and the farmer or gar
dener can feel free to call on Mr..
! Anderson at any time for sugges-
ton as to what particular form of
fertilizer will be best adapted to the
needs Of his land.
Courteous and prompt attention to
all, with the ability to make lowest
prices, has resulted in five-fold ex-
pansion of the business from q small
beginning, not only keeping pace
with, but a step in advance of the
development of city and parish.
Mr.. Anderson is native son,
having been born and reared in
Louisiana, graduate of the Coving-
ton schools, and confident of the
great future the years have in store
for Bogalusa, Washington parish and
the southeastern part of the state.
When asked for the key to his quick
business success, he credited same in
a large measure to the cordial treat
ment extended by the officials of the
Great Southern Lumber Company
and the First State Bank.

Make Own Christmas
Toys in Detroit

With the high cost Of living engross-
ing attention, grownups are apt to for
get that youngsters are sadly affected
by the high cost Of playing. Due to
unusually high prices Of wooden toys,
many children are forced to do with
out the luxury Of little red wagon
and all the wooden toys Of toyland.
1t is to combat this evil that a course
in top making has been added to the
manual training work at Northern
High Evening School.
This course is open to both men and
women, SO that fathers and mothers
who wish to. may learn the art Of
carving toys and decorating them at
tractively. Such toys as wagons and
wheelbarrows, turtles that crawl, par
rots that nod and chickens and ducks
on rollers, can be made at small cost.
