AS EXPRESSED BY ONE OF THE
GUESTS OF REST AWHILE,
VAUDEVILLE,

Mothers, friends and Kings Daugh-
tiers. 1t is indeed with grateful
hearts we call to mind the great
pleasure and benefits we have en-
Joyed during our time at Rest-A-
While. These pleasures were due
to the kind attention paid to us by
the Kings Daughters.
or them, the matron and every
one in general, we have sweet mem
cries, which forever and aye, will
leave deep impressions of Sincerity on
the minds of those at Rest-A-While
We are more than thankful for the
kind attention given us by the yard
man and all the workers of the kit
chen. Although We have learned
to love and respect these persons in
less than two weeks, it will take
ANY and many years before then
good deeds and beneficial actions are
forgotten.

EIGHTY YOEMEN CD GET CIVIL
SERVICE JOBS AT ALGIERS
STATION,

Out Of the navy one day and into
the civil service the next was the ex-
perience of virtually the whole eighty
yeomen at the New Orleans naval sta
ton at Algiers, who were discharged
from service Thursday with a $50
bonus.
Most of the staff returned Friday
typewriters and were off on a civil
service job. Marinettes also were dis
charged on government orders.
The eighty yeomen 60 in New Or
leans were a part of the system of
11,275 women in the naval service who
served during the war in naval sta.
tions in America and in Europe. When
the announcement of their proposed
discharge came they were given an
opportunity to pass the civil service
examinations and to resume their ola
positions. Their pay will be almost
exactly the same-about 500 month.
The only change is the dropping of
the uniform, but many girls have ex-
pressed their intention of wearing
the white suit for the remainder of
the summer, since the government
allows this if the naval rating insignia
is removed.
The ''yeomanettes" in their trim tai
lored suits of dark blue or spotless
white, belted and worn with the regu-
lation sailor tie. have identified them
selves prominetly with the great war.
Their work was varied--they rendered
services as typists, clerks, translators.
camouflage artists, finger-print experts,
craftsmen and recruiting agents. In
New Orleans they took leading part
in war relief work of all kinds and
their feet have tramped many miles
in parades. sturdily following the men
of the navy.
The work of the yeomen (D receiv-
ed high praise from Secretary Daniels
on the eve of their discharge.

Ernest Tarleton was killed and
jeanette Johnson and Dora Davis
wounded late Thursday Thursday
night by Joseph Williams in a shoot
ing Array on the outskirts of Nc
Donoghville. All are negroes. Will
liams made his escape.
The shooting was the result of Viii.
liams' jealousy of the Johnson wo-
man, whom he followed from Lock
port several days ago and located at
the Davis woman's home. When
jeanette refused to return to Lock
port with Williams he drew a revolver
and as she fled through the house
he began firing. Jeanette Johnson
was struck in the leg. receiving a
flesh wound, while Dora Davis head
was graZed by bullet
Tarleton was struck In the back
the bullet striking his spine as it
passed through his body. He fell to
the floor and died before assistance
could be rendered. The bullet was
fired at close range, his shirt being
powder-burned. Tarleton was 40
years old and lived at 1910 Vallette
street

Water baseball and water basket
ball will be introduced at the Algiers

developing interest in swimming, ac-

these games explain their nature.
Rules governing both are in confor-

Diving also is to come in for an

II is thus seen that the danger is
very great. and were the public better
educated in these matters. no doubt
that better solution would be pos
sible Physicians must be given
greater control of diseases, they know
more about them then clergymen and
politicians.
AS to the remedy | will briefly give
my views: I am in favor of a re-
stricted district under medical con-
troll. Drive all the lewd women in
this district, and drive all bar-rooms
restaurants, shooting galleries, and
all other kind of business out of it.
Compel all buildings to be of GER
tain standard, demolish all buildings
which can not answer the require
ments All rooms should have facili-
ties, ordered by the medical authori-
ties, such as running hot and cold
water, douches, medical applications
with directions, instruction to the
women, free clinic for them, severe
restrictions to their quarters, and
less Jail sentences. Every woman
should be examined hi-weekly and
furnished under her Photograph a
certificate of health, without which
she can not follow her occupation.
No punishment can be too severe for
all men who live by the lives of these
unfortunates. they should be Danish
ed forever. Youths should be kept
out, and a special police should be
under the Board of Control.
Because OF special privilege given
to the district property holders. we
have a moral right to exact from them
proper sanitation as ordered by the
Board of Control
Because such establishments would
afford safer conduct to the men Gus
toners, then in return all the business
should be expected to go there. and
by force of the great dollar these
women would soon find that the bes'
thing to do would be to go in the dis
trict under control. We would ther
have less houses of prostitution OF

! can not close this letter without
a word about the ministers God

pie, and | would be last to object to
their aim Of abolishing prostitution.
But their aim is impossible, prosti-
tuition will exist to the end of the
world. God has given to all animals
the provocative instinct, creating in
all males a desire acuter than that of
eating and drinking, and the best men
Of the world in all ages have failed
to conquer their sensual lust, except
at an advanced age. Will there ever
be a change in the nature of the
animal?
| sincerely believe that the closing
Of the district in our city has cost
to many hitherto honest their most
precious possession, the demand will

and severer laws later also proved
to be powerless.
Rome has been a cesspool of vice at
all ages. In the eleventh century a
church and a brother stood side by
side. Under Pope Paul III in the six
teenth century the severest legisla-
ton was enacted. For selling a girl
into prostitution the penalty was to
cut one foot Tortures, flogging,
branding and Punishment never did
lessen the unavoidable evil in Rome,
and we read that the nobility were as
wicked as the common people.

NAVY YARD MEN MARCH TO
PROTEST CLOSING
STATION.

Work ana what they regard as the
threatened closing of the New Or
leans Naval Station. approximately
500 employees of the navy yard in
automobiles and on foot, paraded
through the business section Tues
day afternoon.
According to A. j SanarenS, chair
man OF the general committee of the
employees organization, under
whose direction the parade was ar
ranged, 600 men at the navy yard
lost employment since the armistice
was signed. He declared present
indications point to more dismissals
unless more work is speedily assign
ed the local naval station.
The attention of the Association
of Commerce has not been called to
any immediate possibilities of discon-
tinuance OF the work at the naval
station, Walter Parker, general man
ager said Tuesday afternoon. Mr..
Parker discounted the rumor that
1900 men are likely to Immediately
be thrown out of employment there
Ancient GunbOats Removed.
According to information have
Mr.. Parker said, the government
has ordered the removal of three or
four old gunbOats from the yard
here, because the vessels were not
worthy of further repairs
Secretary of the Navy Daniels
gave assurances several weeks ago
that the New Orleans Naval Station
would not be closed, and a number
of new buildings have been con-
structed recently. Others are now
in course of construction, and SEEM
ingly refute any reported intention
OF naval officials to close the Orleans
station.
Banners borne by the navy yard
employees in Tuesdays parade warn
ed the citizens of New Orleans of
the threatened closing of the yard,
and called upon business men to CO.
operate with the employees to keep
the yard open. Some of the ban
ners read as follows: New Or
leans, do you want your largest in
dustrial plant closed up Tight" THE
second largest port in the United
States demands that it's naval sta
ton be kept Open" "The naval sta
ton is a $1O,O0O,00O municipal
plant; is it good business policy to
close it," ''All we ask is a square
deal"
Sanarens Predicts Closing.
There is absolutely no assign.
ment of vessels to the New Orleans
Naval Station for home port" A
j. Sanarens, of the navy yard EN-
ployes, said Tuesday. 1.-THE Wheel
ing, Castine and Sacramento have
been assigned to Charleston, and the
Machias to Puget Sound. If no re
lief is given, this probably means
the closing of the yard.
"All of the navy yard employee
are organized for the purpose o
dealing with the government. an
after a meeting held Saturday w
sent eleven kilograms to Presiden
Wilson and Louisiana congressmel
requesting their assistance. Their
are approximately 100 men EN-
ployed now at the yard, but the ma
jority Of these will be thrown out O
work unless there is speedy chang
of policy by naval officials in regar
TO the naval station here"
: Most OF the men at the naval sta
ton are members of various unio
organizations, including the Fedora
Employees Union, and they have, il
addition to this, been authorized b
J the government to perfect a singl
organization for purposes of com
: municating with the government OF
