AS THE KAISER WAS AND Is.

A thousand military mobiles all bend
at his board;
Fruits glisten, flowers bloom, meats
steam, and a food
OF the wine that man loveth runs
redder than blood;
Wild dancers are there, and a riot
of mirth,
Bring forth" )" cries the Monarch,
''the vessels of gold
Which my father tore down from the
temples of old;
Bring forth and Well drink while
the trumpets are blown.
To the gods OF bright silver, OF gold'
and of stone.
Bring forth. And before him the
vessels all shine,
And he bows unto Baal, and ne
drinks the dark wine,
While the trumpets bray and the
cyrbals ring,
Praise, praise to the Kaiser, Kaiser
the king.
Now what cometh? Look! The
American Army
Who writes with the lightning's
brisht hand on the wall?
What r;erceth the Kaiser like
point of O dart?
What ulives the bold blood from his
cheek to hia heart?
Let the captive of Judah the letters
expound.
They aye read, and the Kaiser to
Holland Is bound.
Hark! The American has come on
the conquerer's wing,
And Democracy is on the throne OF
Kaiser the king.

TAXPAlER TAKES ISSUE WI1H
MIR. BUIE.
Covington, La, Sept. 8, 1919.

CoVington, La, Sept. 8, 1913.
Editor st. Tammany Farmer:
Under the heading Anticipated
Poad system Holds Up State High
ways" the New Orleans Item of Sep
tember til quotes Mr.. Duncan Buie,
THE Hammond highway, for which
contracts will be let within the next
80 days, may be completed in two
years. Contracts have just been let
for par. of the New Orleans-Missis-
sippi highway as far as Chef Men
teur road. When the remainder Of
the road will be completed no one
knows. Il We proposed to the
St. Tammany police jury to devote
sufficient funds to complete the con-
struction of the Chef road through
slidel. The parish police jury
refused. Why? l do not know.
probably that will come out later
Does Mr.. Buie know that the act
of the Legislature that provided for
the building of the New Orleans
Hammond and Chef Menteur-Slidel
road specifically says that the Chef
Menteur-Slidell road must be provid-
ed for FIRST? Does Mr.. Buie know
that the $75O,O00 voted for by the
people Ct St. Tammany parish was
voted for particular purpose which
did not include the Slidell-New Or
leans construction? Does Mr.. Buie
know that the police jury has neither
he legal nor moral right to divert
the s75),O0O fund for other purposes
than these for which voted?
Why does Mr.. Buie expect to have
the people of St. Tammany parish
Day for the Slidell-NeW Orleans con-
nection and not ask the parishes
thru which the New Orleans-Ham
nond road runs to pay for that road?
When the Legislature provided
for the two roads in question it did
not say that st. Tamsnany shall be
singled out and made to pay for one
road 50 that the whole fund could be
diverted towards the other. l re-
peat tha: it says the Chef Menteur-
S!idell read must be provided for

One Third of Population
Were Attacked With
Disease in 1918.
PERFECT SANITATION
IS STRONGLY URGED
Immunization By Harmless
Vaccine Recommended
In Epidemics.

The lccal Board of Health mas Is
sued the following warning:
During the fall Of 1918 one-thlrd
Of the population of the country con-
tracted influenza, and of those at
tackled, ore-half million perished.
This appaliing fatality is causing
health authorities everywhere to
adoot means to lessen sickness and
death in the impending re-lnVaslon.
We atTongly urge observance or ex-
is.ing sanitary regulations, and an
endeavor to keep the body healthy.
Pools must be drained of stagnant
water, rr:vies must be kept clean,
bu;ldlngs must be kept free from
rubbish, manure pits must be emp
tied regularly, bread and fruit ordl'
narily eaten without being pealed
must be bought only from shopmen
who protect it from contamination.
These things are necessary to pre-
vent malaria and bowel infections
that lessen resistance and make the
human tCdy prey to lnnuenza.
Colds must be prevented. The sur
est wav 10 do this is to live in Vent1-
lated rooms free from dust and
smoke, to avoid engagement with
foods, and keep away from sources
of infection of every kind, including
ordinary colds. Eat more animal
foods. 1reat, eggs and milk. These
increase the resisting power or the
body, and do not overload the dl-
gestiva organs like many vegetables.
Another preventive measure IS
immunization with a vaccine OF COM
bined germs of influenza and pneu-
monia. This treatment has its advo-
ca es and dissenters, but it is con-
dered harmless, and should be tried
at least in severe colds.
1t is not anticipated that such Sc
we're measures as closing the schools
and theatres will be necessary, but
preventive measures must be taken
at once, and anyone responsible 1or
the spread of the disease by careless
disregard of health laws exposes
his community to financial and social
sturbance of the gravest nature.
Today, before the re-invasion, IS the
time to prepare.

ONLY A MEMORY.

Last night as l leaned from my win
dow,
High over the darkening street,
A song came floating upwards,
Broken and incomplete.
The words were lost in the chasm,
Where traffic rumbled and roared;
II was only a melody reached me,
But it pierced my soul like a sword
What was it? God! l know not;
/ stood with lips apart
While II slipt, like sands escaping
From the troubled grasp OF my
heart.
What sorrow, dead and forgotten,
Haunted the vagrant strain?
We bury such things like paupers
In .hs peters field of pain.
What delicate wreath of passion,
Wha. ghost OF yester year,
Twas something as sweet as kisses,
Something as sad as tears.
Rising only to vanish,
Bathing, yet half revealed,
AS a pang of the flesh may tell US
Where wound long since healed.
While | was in Covington, last
Wednesday, a fellow accused me OF
stealing his shirt and pawning it
"Yes," he said, you stole my shirt
and pawned it." l said, "no l did

He said, well, then prove it." l un-
buttoned my coat and showed him
his shirt, and / proved to him l
hadn't pawned it.
We are now living in an advanced
age. Just look at the wonderful in

large il you ever felt it sinking all
you would have to do is to take the
elevator up.
They are setting a very fast pace
these days, with the modern improve
ments, automobiles and airships.
Nowadays nobody wants to walk.
We ara certainly going fast these

l don't see any use in getting
married and paying a woman's board
bill for Life when you can buy talk
ing machine so cheap. But mar
riage isn't always a failure. Now and
then you have fighting chance.
Nowadays a woman looks at a man
with a breach of promise suit in one
eye-and alimony in the other.
Some women only marry for curiosi-
ty-jus: to see what kind OF rool
a man will make of himself. Most
married women are good listeners
when their husbands talk in their
sleep. On a honeymoon trip man
kisses his wife every time the trains
enters tunnel-on the trip back he
takes q drink. Yet, many man
climbed the ladder of success because
his wife held the ladder.
Love is but a game of cards. He

After marriage she can't get five

trumps She begs; he hands her g.
