TO CELEBRATE ON
FIFTH ANNIVERSARY

What can be accomplished in Bo-
galusa in five years by applying ones
undivided time to business and max
ing policy that will be rigidly en-
forced is perhaps not better demon
strated than the experience of Gus
Levin, the well known Pleasant Hin
merchant who on next Saturday cele-
brates the fifth anniversary of the
opening Of his store. Mr.. Levin came
here five years ago and opened with
modest stock of dry goods, ladies
and mems furnishings. He adopted
policy of giving his patrons their
moneys worth at all times, employ
ing courteous salespeople, showing
his appreciation for patronage and
today his store enjoys an unusually
good business and his stock is one Of
the best in the city. Mr.. Levin Is
going to give his patrons a regular
birthday party starting next Satur-
day when he will offer values that
viii take considerable pep out OF old
II. c. L. If you are not a patron of
the Levin store it will pay you to
visit his anniversary sale, if You are
a patron you have already made your
plans to attend the event.

NEGRESS KILLED.
JEALOUSY THE CAUSE

viii Watson, colored, is in Jail on
the charge of having murdered Mary
McNalr, his paramount. Monday
night the fatal shot was fired that
took effect just over the heart of
the colored woman, and medical and
surgical skill failed to save the life
OF the woman, although every effort
was made in her behalf. Watson an
nounced that the woman was a sui
eide, but that matter is yet to be
decided by jury. Watson has been
livlng with the McNair woman for
some time, although not married to
her: They have figured in BogaIusa
ponce records frequently. 1t seems
that Watson was a little peeved be-
cause the woman spent his money
and lived with him, but was unable
to restrain the meanderings of her
affections. Green-eyed jealousy
flourished in Watson's heart and
there were many lively perform
ances. The shooting Monday night
rung down the curtain on the bois-
ferrous waves of their discord and
the, woman was turned over to the
undertaken and the man to the offie-
ers. -

tights. Every Monday and Thurs
Iday nights volley ball and ground
ball are played in the open air by

years. are taking most interest in
the exercises and swimming that are
enjoyed at 10 a. m. every Saturday.
The juniors are also playing hard in
the indoor base ball league. Volun-
teers for service exceed the number
of openings, and as a result the
games have plenty of noisy fans and
great sport is enjoyed by all the
boys. The specially organized games
for teams and classes do not en-
brace the working boys who partici-
pate in all kinds of games, using the
alleys, tables and gym to their hearts
content every night in the week, but
Sunday.

NO MORE TICKLE
TOE AT ARMORY

The Armory has ceased TO be a
hall of pleasure and is now a staid
and solid institution of learning. It's
character has been fixed. The su-
perintendent of the Bogalusa schools
has the key in his pocket and is ada
mant as to the future character Of
the building. No more will "shim-
my and "tickle-toe" trip the tunefuI
and tack the hall for happy hours
to small ones with blue ewes and
DroWn ones encased in blonde and
black pillowed on strong shoulders.
The Armory is now the High School
OF Bogalusa. Dancers unthoughted-
ly amused themselves once upon a
time by disappearing with several
dollars worth of good implements of
learning, and it is now thought that
the school books Of the working boys
and girls IS more nearly objects OF
worth than that the souls of harry
dancers be warmed on the pine
floors. Hence, no more dances at
the Armory until scnool is over and
the boys and girls have eased off
into another summer vacation. In
the meantime the Armory is being
packed with nice school desks and
the little class rooms are being
equipped with recitation chairs, and
there is the soft hum of "unwontcn
noise of three-score mingled girls
and bows"

AUTO ACCIDENT.

What came near being a serious
accident occurred on Avenue B
bridge Sunday afternoon, when Myr-
tie Baker, driving an Overland car,
lost control of the machine and it
crashed into the banisters of the
bridge, which alone saved the car
and its occupants from being hurled
to the ground below. The girl be-
came confused at an approaching
car and turned the Overland too far
aside. The castings of the front
wheels were badly damaged and the
car was considerably shaken up, as
well as were the occupants. No one
was injured.
