Mixed drinks were unobtainable dur ing the day because. of the rush for straight liquor Later, however, it was possible to obtain all of the widely known mixed drinks, for many years peculiar to New Orleans. French res taurants served claret with dinners, adding the touch which chefs and man. agers of the establishments always have claimed was necessary for the proper appreciation of their meals.

"A Model Town" is Taken
 Up for Discussion With
 The Girls of the School
(By Dot WestbrOOk)

A model town should be very clean. All the wastes should be carried out of town and burned All the sick people should have all the care they need. There should be ice cream parlors, dry good stores, grocery stores, post of flee, a iewelry store, millinery stores, hardwares, banks and variety stores.
 For entertaining there should be opera houses, picture shows and beau tiful parks. There should be a stock law, so that people could have pretty yards, covered with flowers, grass and pretty trees A light plant and a water system should furnish light and water. Gas should be used for heating g purposes: have automobiles, street cars and trains for ways of travel; paved streets are pretty for model town. Big swimming pools are nice for summer evenings.
 A town must have schools and churches to be model. Everybody in SchOOl SnOulu De NdCCllldlGu I eOpIc should not spit on the sidewalks. AN flies and mosquitoes should be des-- troyed.
 Hog pens, COW and horse lots and sWamps should be drained. A model town should have no public drinking stands. Paved streets should be Wash~ ed very often. Every house should have garbage can and the garbage should be hauled away every day to have our premises clean and free from flies and mosquitoes, our milk and water supplies pure and the air we breathe free from germs.
 Parks should be had for children to play in but they must be free from germs All babies should be screen ed from flies. All dogs should be to guard against rabies.
 All stores should be closed on Sun day They should be electric lights and fire department.
