Adherence to Promises
Made and Implied will
Promote Interest OF
Roads Movement
Citizens of Sixth and All Other
Wards Should be Fully
Acquainted with
Proposals

The chairman Of the board II ad-
! ministrators of Road District No. l.
has stated that The Review should
not have attempted to set forth the
plans of the board as to the expendi'-
ture of the funds from the proposed
bond issue in the various parts Of the
parish, or the apportionment for the
sixth ward and the municipality OF
Morgan City.
The facts and figures as given IN
the Review were obtained at regular
sittings of the board of supervisors
and the police jury. and though some
of the agreements may have been on
Nv verbal, they were construed by
many to be as stated in the articles
published. There should be no good
reason why the plans of the board
should not be given the utmost pub
ricity, in order that the people may
Judge for themselves as to the merits
of such plans. The Review has striv
en- to cast light on the question from
every angle, in order that all points
involved may be made clear to its
readers. 1t does not seek to create
prejudice against either ne support
ers of the board or those who are OPP
posed to its plans, but It does seek
to support any fair movement that is
intended to provide the public with
such necessary Improvements as good
roads.
The Review in compiling the fig
ures published, based them upon the
plans of the board as they were open
ly discussed and approved and stated
that such figures were the approx
mate amounts to be expended. 1t
does not see 70 misrepresent the
board in any manner whatsoever, but
lives up to its function as public
journal to cast all available light uD-
on matters of public interest. 1t
will not deign to intimate that the
Board of Administrators is not &C
quainted with the ethics of journal
ism. but it is evident that the Board
or its chairman did not take into
consideration the object of the press
before making the statement, or else
the proposals of the board as regards
the sixth ward do not coincide with
its roadbuilding plans as it means to
carry them out.
The Review has never been of xI
partisan nature 1t is devoted pri-
marily to furthering its community
interests and welfare. 1t considers
the whole of the parish vital fac
tor of the community, and seeks to |
further the interests of the parish as |
we'll as the community itself 1t is
apparent that its Interpretation Of |
the proposed road plans does not CO.
incide with the views of others. and
in order that all sides may be fairly |
represented, it invites expressions
from such parties. The columns oil
the Review are open at all times to |
those who wish to express their hor-
est convictions.

AMERICAS FUTURE

America has proven herself DO.
tent power by her achievements in the
great world war, but far more inn
portant than that, America has proven
herself the champion Of right-right
among all mankind. Speaking of
Americas success, Mr.. Otto Kahn
said on the day following the signing
of the armistice, in an address to the
Boston Athletic Club:
We are now walking along the
heights OF great achievements and
lofty aspirations. Let US shun the
descent into the valleys wehave Left
behind. Let US trust and strive that
some at least of the things we have
gained spiritually may never leave
u.s." "a
In brilliant flow Of oratory, Mr.
Kahn goes on to point out what the
future holds for America.
America comes out OF the war with

GIRLS! WHITEN SKIN
WITH LEMON JUICE
Make a Beauty Lotion for a Few
Cents to Remove Tan, Freckles,
Sallowness.

Your grocer has the lemons and any
drug store or toilet counter will sup.
ply you with three ounce Of orchard
white for few cents. Squeeze the
juice of two fresh lemons into. bot
tie, then put in the orchard white
and shake well. This makes a quarter
pint of the very best lemon skin
whitener and complexion beautifer
known. Massage this fragrant, creamy
lotion daily into the face, neck, arms
and hands and just see how freckles,
tan, sallowness, redness and rough
ness disappear and how smooth, soft
and clear the skin becomes. Yes! It
is harmless, and the beautiful results
will surprise you.

Small Stove Is Dangerous
As a Source of Fire When
0verheated or Overloaded

Unless properly installed and used
the small stove is dangerous as q
source Of fire, according to the United
States department Of agriculture.
Some people expect too much of q
small stove and overwork 1t. If a
stove is too small for the space it is
expected to heat it is liable to be
overheated or filed so full Of fuel
that fire will fall out on the floor
when the door is opened. The pipe
also is liable to be overheated and tho
resultant danger is cited as a great
source of farm blazes.
Stoves should not be placed close
to papered walls or woodwork unless
proper protection is provided. The
floor near stoves or fireplaces also
should be covered with some nom
inflammable material. Screens, to pre-
vent Goals dropping on the floor,
should be placed. The door leading
to the fire box on stove should never
be left open to check the draft, as
the small explosions constantly occur
ring in the fire are very apt to throw
out live Goals and start q fire. Open
hreplaces should not be used unless
provided with effective screens.
Chimneys should be cleaned repu-
larry to remove SCOT and any other
infammable material This Is best
accomplished by means of pieces of
metal (such as scrap tiny, limbs Of
an evergreen tree. or bundle Of brush
attached to rope. chain. or wire and

Bodies of Americans Who
Died in France During the
War to Be BROUGHT Home

Bodies Of Americans who died in
France during the war will be trans
ferred to the United States If their
nearest relatives so desire. Otherwise
the dead will remain undisturbed.
Already large number Of relatives
have Informed the war department of
their desire to have the bodies re-
turned. In the near future a letter
Will be sent to the nearest relative
of every soldier or civilian whose body
rests in France, asking their wishes
with regard to the transfer.
A memorandum on this subject,
drafted by Lieut.. Col. J. G. Ashburn Of
the adjutant generals department,
says:
1T cannot be stated just now when
the transfer Of bodies will begin, as
it must be deferred until conditions,
including that Of transportation, war
rant the undertaking. Due notice will
be given through the public press.
ut IS not deemed advisable to grant
requests for relatives, friends or un-
dertakers to 60 to France to super
intend the preparation and shipment
of, or to accompany bodies back to the
United States. Organizations have
been formed, known as grave regis
tration units, whose duty it is to look
after burials, care of cemeteries and
preservation of Identification records
so that there will be no question as to
identity"

New regulations adopted by the
Secretaries of the Treasury, Agri-
culture and Commerce require that
hereafter all packages containing
above one-half ounce of food, avoir-
dupois. coming under the jurisdiction
of the Federal Food and Drug Act.
must be labeled to show the exact
net weight A former regulation
provided that a package containing
two avoirdupois ounces or less
should be exempt from marking i'm
terms of weight.
The new ruling was made, it is
explained, to give consumers in
formation as to the quantity of
spices and other comparatively
high. priced foods which are usually
sold in small packages, and thus
protect themselves from the decep-
tive practice of slack-filling such
containers.
