NEW TELEPHONE TOLL RATES.

"A conference or telephone representatives OF
southeastern iowa was held at Burlington We'd
nesday for the purpose of getting acquainted
with the new toll rates, which are to be put into
effect at midnight ON the twenty frst of Febru-
airy.
The following towns were represented: Bur
lington, Mount Pleasant, Morning Sum- Column
bus Junction, Fort Madison, New London, Oak
vile, Mount Union, Keokuk, Mediapolis and
DanviIe
The new toll rates to go into effect will, it
IS said, be divided into three classes:
% Station to station calls. The
calls will be the basis OF all toll line charges,
means that any person at given place called for
viii answer the purpose of the calling party.
Cd Person to person calls. Such calls
that 2 particular Person only is wanted and that
charges win be approximately 25 per
than the station to station calls.
t3I Appointment calls. Such calls
particular person is desired a given time. For
such calls the charge will be approximately 50
rer cent. more than the station to station calls
There will also he three classes of rates es-
tablished:
Oh Day 1870 a m. to $50 p. m.
t2) Evening rates from $50 p. m to 1900
midnight During these hours the rates viii be
p1roxinlately cne-haif OF the day rate.
80 Night rates from i2:01 midnight to 4:30
q. m. During these hours the rates will be APP
prcsimately onefourh of the established day
rates
Subscribers who get report that the party
they called for is not liz will not return until
some later time will be charged % per cent of
the regular rate for such report.
The day, evening and night rates will apply
TO all points in the United States while hereto
fore there has been night rate over the lines
Of the Iowa Telephone company only The
evening and night rates to be placed in force
will apply only to station to station calls. All
other calls Will he charged for at the establish
pd day rates.
These changes make pertinent the query. Is
the policy of the government control of com
munieation lines to be one of encouragement
OF extensive use OF such lines? For neither tho
pnrse nor the convenience of the public is con-
sdered by these changes and it seems probable
that fewer people by considerable will use tbe
telephone for toll communication than have
Seen using it.
In competitive business the trend is always
toward an elimination of profit the buyer bene-

there Is a point at which capital and legitimate
skillcd labor tend to withdraw from a business
leaving it prey to Legitimate exploitation.

There is said to be great scurry to cover in
Washington among the supporters of Represent
tative Manu. of Illinois, for the speakership
now that the testimony Of Francis j. Heney be-
fore the senate committee on agriculture is out,
alleging that Mann had received gift of a
horse and beefsteaks from certain Chicago
packers. Word has gone around in the capitol
that Mann's candidacy for the speakership is
ruined and that some other individual will have
to be elected. The Heney testimony has prac-
tically made it impossible for any of the Iowa
members to support Mann. Of the old members
of the Iowa delegation, all have inclined to
support Mann except Representatives Good
and Towner, but the Heney testimony has
stirred up storm that will undoubtedly COM
pei the lowans to support someone else

POSSIBLY so.

1t is beginning to look a little bit as though
the idea in Europe might be to give the presi-
dent splendid time and all possible honor and
attention but not to get down to actual peace
business until he sails for home. 1t cannot be
said that this is certainly so, and if it al
legged to be the fact it would naturally be in
dignantly denied Courteous hosts always tell
a guest not to think of going early, that it is
"a pleasure to have him stay and that he does
not incommode them in the least. But when
the visitor finds that the conversation lags and
the host is called from the room repeatedly on
what seems pressing matters he usually begins
to realize that the time of departure has come.
Somewhat suggestive Of this is the situation in
Europe today. Premiers Lloyd George and Or
lando have world of matters to attend. They
are repeatedly called back to their own coun-
tries Everybody knows that they are inn
mensely busy men, and that while they are hur-
rying the conference along as fast as possible,
lit may happen that it will not really get down
to business much before the president has to
say good bye.

The American Federation of Arts issues a
bulletin in which some sensible suggestions are
made regarding the planning of war memorials.
First comes determination of the amount of
money available Upon this will depend the
form of memorial advisable. Next in import
ance comes the determination of site or place
ment for the memorial The federation rightly
says that fine memorial is lost In effect if a
proper setting is not given it, Materials for
sculpture for architectural memorials should be,
if possible, Of local production with a view to
both sentimental and economic advantage Sim
plicity, scale and proportion are factors which
greatly make for an effective memorial There
are other suggestions in detail and the whole
makes a timely and helpful contribution to
subject on which expert advice is highly desir-
able.

BogaIusa Has Fine
Millinery Store

For everything in millinery, in
cluding the latest styles, the ladies Of
Bogalusa have always found Mrs.
Fishers millinery store to be the
place for obtaining their needs. Mrs.
C. w. Fisher came to Bogalusa about
five years ago and started in business
at No. 81 Columbia street. She has
had many years Of practical expert
ence in millinery and is one of the
most capable in her line.
The Fisher store has a large va
riety Of hats, ranging in price from
the more moderate, up to the most
expensive. All shapes and supplies
usually found in a well stocked mil
linery establishment are obtaining
here, and the prices will be found
much more reasonable than those at
establishments of this kind in the
larger cities. This is possible because
the stock is carefully selected by one
Of years Of experience, who studies
the requirements of the trade and
secures such supplies as are demand
ed. The business has grown rapidly
from the start and today Mrs. Fisher
has one Of the largest patronages
here and numbers among her patrons
many of the most fastidious ladies Of
the town, She gives personal atten-
ton to the business and solicits work
Of all kinds in remodeling and trim
ming, carrying in syock large sup
ply Of shapes and trimmings. Mrs.
Fisher makes frequent trips to the
fashion centers and attends the buy
ers' convention every spring in st.
Louis to keep in touch with the most
advanced styles. The showing here
for the year 1919 represents every
thing in style and quality that is sold
by the leading millinery shops. With
such an up-to-date concern located at
home, the people here should liberal
~ patronize the Fisher Millinery,
where they viii be given advice and
shown every courtesy and consdera-
tion. An expert milliner from New
Orleans, Miss Lillian Empson, has
been engaged and will remain here
through the spring season. All work
and designing guaranteed satisfac-
tory.

The Diamond"
Is Model Ranch


Located in Washington parish, IL
miles north of Bogalusa, is the great
Diamond L" ranch, owned and OPP
Grated by the Hampton Realty Com
pany Of Magnolia, Miss,
This property has been in the pos
session Of hampton Bros. since 1884,
but cultivation on an extensive scale
was not begun until about seven
years ago. There are about five
thousand acres with hog-proof fence,
and about five hundred acres are be-
ing scientifically farmed, raising
corn, oats, velvet beans, cowpeas and
lespedeza hay, the crops being prin-
cipally for the fine stock in which
this ranch specializes. There are also
forty acres in crimson clover and it
has been demonstrated that any crop
that can be grown anywhere in the
South can be produced in abundance
on this ranch.
Raising of fine stock is the chief
business of the Hampton ranch, which

RESOURCES NEARING MILLION
ISRECORD OF FIRST Staten

Perhaps the story of Bogalusa's
growth and the solidity of its foun-
dation is best shown in the total
resources of the First State Bank.
resources which reach the enormous
amount Of nearly a million dollars
and makes the First State Bank of
Bogalusa one of the foremost bank
ing concerns of Southeastern Louisi-
ana. This splendid bank owes the
eminence which it has reached to a
policy founded on conservatism, and
yet scientifically elastic enough to
meet the demands of the community
in its steady march of development.
The bank has at all times studied the
needs of the commercial interests
coming within its sphere of influ-
ence and the aid which it has uni
fornly extended is seen on every
hand.
The bank was organized in 1909
as the First National Bank, but ow-
ing to federal restrictions covering
mortgages, it was found best for the
growth of the community to change
to state bank charter, and the wis
dom of that course has been fully
demonstrated.
The first officers were: G. C. Lii
gon, president; Leroy A. Pierce. vice
president and Christian Olivier, cash

Coplenz, Jan. S.-Rules for the guidance of inhabitants of regions occupied by American forces Were is sued by General Pershing.
 Except for minor regulations, the Americans have not interfered' in local affairs until now. cafes have been open and theaters filled. News~ papers until recently have pub lished without restraint while crowds promenadad the streets until mid night. and even later. The Ger mans have come to believe that such conditions would continue and while thera was no serious incident as result of the tolerant rule Of the Americans, it was deemed best to check any tendency toward abuse.
 Among other things the new rules provide:
 "The sale or gift of all alcoholic drinks except light wines and beer Is forbidden. Alcohol for medicinal Or industrial purposes does not
