THIS EVERYTHING a
GIRL NEEDED
FOR MOVIES
Boise, Oct. Is, 1919.

There is always an opportunity in any field for
those who are qualified to hold situation of un.
usual Importance.
That holds good for all time. A recent exam.
pie of this is illustrated in the sudden jump to fame
made by Miss Betty Compson, the pretty Salt
Lake City girl, who has reached the upper most
rung of the photoplay ladder.
Hard work was one of her assets. But she had
beauty, grace, charm, large eyes that she could do
anything with. Her hair was just exactly as re-
CURED In fact she had, the saying goes, "every
thing"
George Loane Tucker discovered all these
traits in Miss Compson. He placed here opposite
Thomas Meighan in his big ParamountArtcraft
Picture 1.-THE Miracle Man." which comes to the
Pinney Theatre next Wednesday.
That was enough. Miss Compson did the rest.
Today she is basking in stardom. Yesterday she
was just an ordinary girl looking for work. Any
girl may do the same as Miss Compson. But if they
think they have her capabilities, her looks or her
charm, they can compare themselves with her
when they see ",The Miracle Man" at the Pinney
Theatre.
The engagement is for five days, beginning
Wednesday. They can see this little girl change
from an innocent miss, to low character of the
slums They can see more than we can explain in
this newspaper. That is why the Pinney has this
picture booked
The chance is one in life time.

All Aboard for the Main Line

The visit of Division Supt. Nc.
Kay of the I & p, who has his
headquarters at Marshall. proved
satisfactory with our citizens, who
met with him in conference at the
Comus last Tuesday when lie ex
planned how the graveling and bal
lasting of the road was being done,
forty miles being finished already
and work started at this end, so
that the making of the branch the
main line was no longer an indefi-
mite but an assured fact.
$440, 1000 is being expended SO as
to put the road in the proper
shaie, and the great gallon
tahk In place on this side of Cy-
press is proof enough that the
main line is coming. Supt. Nc
Kay said he personally had never
before made any definite statemen,
concerning this important matter,
for which Natchitoches has been
lighting many years, but he would
guarantee that by the end of 1919
the work would be in shape and
by the first of 1920 NATCHI-
TOCHES WOULD BE ON TIE

The Normal Training High
School

The Normal Training Higt
School is we'll started toward or.
ganization for a good terms work
It is the policy of Principal j
d. Bartlow that this school shall
stand out as unit and yet that i,
be found in harmony at all times
with the Parish, with the Normal
and with State educational organi
cations.
This school is the one school OF
its kind in the state-a training
school Of eleven grades with less
than 500 pupils and more than 125
critic aud practice teachers, with
the problem OF transfers and the
like, all of which make the organi-
zation a very complex one.
A football team of high rank
is already assured and there is
plenty Of material for a good bas-
kct- ball and baseball team. Special
attention is to be given to athlet-
les, and to the literary and social
phases of the school, in the hope
that the school spirit and loyalty
will be of a high order.
Mr.. Bartlow expects to effect
an organization of the Training
School, through the support of its
very superior teaching force,
which will enable it not only tc
serve best the teachers OF Louis
lana, but also to serve the children
of Natchitoches according 10 the
best known educational methods
and results.

Poor boil weevil, better run for your

They're after you, all of 'em-war tc

Rich man, poor man, beggar man,
thief,
Doctor. merchant, lawyer, chief,
Congress, too, now joins in the strife,
Poor boil weevil, better run for your

Editors sling ink, farmers burn your
nest.
Institutes spout gas at you-never any
rest.
With no one to love you, none to caress,
Troubles confound you, your weakness
confess.
Every tongue against you with maledic-
tion rife,
Poor little buggie, better run for your
il
Midnight lamps spoil your complexion,
Poisonous mixtures ruin digestion.
Next they'll call out the militia
Who then could foretell the issue?
These things it would be wise for you
to shun;
Call your family, poor boil weevil, now
and run.
There are other fields to conquer,
Do not yield to dark despair,
Though reduced to cotton comforts
Where the cotton seldom fair.
Leave it to others-the danger and
strife,

The Great White Way is ablaze
each night after many dark
moons, and the reason the lights
were off SO long, was due to the

which could only be secured from

ours that it took until last week

meat food products was, of course,
one of the great necessary industries,
and it was fortunate for the country
that the packing industry was already
modified for service long before the
Lusitania was sunk.
The problem of securing an ade-
quate supply of meat for the army
and navy caused the government
less worry than any other major
problem. All that was necessary for
the government to do was to deter
mine the requirements and need of
the army and navy, and notify the
packers, and they delivered the goods.
The manner in which the packers
met the engagements which arose
during the war is we'll illustrated in
the case of Swift & Company who in
one; week filled government order
for 100000 pounds of meat and
fat. This necessitated the dressing of
$4,000 cattle and 100000 hogs, and
required 1000 freight cars to trans
port. z
Another instance is found in an
order which was received one Satur-
day afternoon at five o'clock fol
100000 pounds of special cut O.
dry salt meats. The war depart
ment wanted this shipment of 43 car;
boxed and on the way by the follow
ing Tuesday noon-less than u
hours distant. Swift & Company
had the last car loaded and rolling ar
hour before noon on Tuesday.
In still another case the Govern
ment could get no one to put W
fresh butter in tins for overseas ship
ment. Swift & Company accepted
an order for 100000 pounds on May
4th, 1918. 1t was necessary to equlE
three creameries with machinery and
supplies, and to organize the help to
do work entirely new to them, but
the first car was rolling eastward in
33 days and month later the en-
tire order was completed.
The tremendous total of $550,OOO,-
900 worth of supplies was furnished
by Swift & Company alone to the
American and Allied Governments
during the war. The peak was reach
ed in December, 1918, when the goods
furnished totaled $35,0O0,OO0 in this
one month.
Meats naturally formed the bulk OF
sales, but considerable quantities CT
wool were furnished THE United
States Government while the Allies
purchased large amounts of lard and
lard products.
Even if there had been any inclin-
alton on the part of the packers to
"profiteer," this would have been out
of the question under the rigid re-
gulations enforced by the Food Ad-
ministration. With meat prices Of
fcially determined by the govern
ment and with profits limited to {
