BOGALUSALANDS
ANOTHER BIG
INDUSTRY
Philadelphia Company Will
Remodel Louisiana Fibre
Board Plant and Install
Machinery for ManuFac-
ture of Essential Oils.

Bogalusa has landed another mill
lion dollar industry, q contract bav-
ing been signed last week between
the Great Southern Lumber Com
Der Company and the Essential Oils
Co., Inc, Of Philadelphia. Announce
ment Of this fact has been made by
Mayor w. H. Sullivan.
1t is expected that within the next
90 or 80 days work will start on re-
modelling the former plant of the
Louisiana Fibre Board Co., which will
be the home of the South's newest,
and which is destined to become one
OF her greatest industries. The COM
pany will manufacture essential oils
from rosin and turpentine which viii
be extracted from pine stumps and
light wood, and when going full blast
will give employment to about 500
people.
The products of this company are
IN great demand and this will be the
only concern of its kind in the South.
1t is also expected to develop de-
mand for stumps.
Mayor Sullivan has been working
for the past several months to secure
the plant for Bogalusa. A most thor
ugh investigation was made Of the
company, its products, etc, and Mr..
Sullivan is confident it viii be one
of the greatest industries secured for
this section of the South. The fact
that they will use all of the present
buildings Of the Louisiana Fibre
Board Company viii give an idea Of
Che magnitude Of the concern and
additions will also likely be built.
1t will now be necessary to build
a home for the local cigar factory
which has occupied a part of the
Fibre Board plant and which is giving
employment to a large number Of
women and girls.
Never were conditions in Bogalusa
more promising that at present, and
the fact that new and large industries
are locating here, with considerable
building going on, with a policy in
force by the Great Southern Lumber
Company to improve the city and
conditions has caused laboring and
business men TO take keen interest
in the development Of the city.

5ODays and $1,000
Given Joy Riders

Gentlemen who are contemplating
having q wild time" in the city Of
Bogalusa some Of these days had best
take heed Of the penalty meted out
to four young and ambitious citizens
in the Police Court trial Tuesday
morning, and forget their idea Of
swell evening.
Four young men Of a certain FAM
lily living near this city chartered q
car on the night Of Saturday, July
II, and filling themselves with q
goodly supply Of firewater, started
through the streets Of South Boga-
lusa and Pleasant Hill on q wild hur-
rah trip. Matters went well for quite
while and, as their shooting up Of
the hospital and kindred public insti-
tutions in that neighborhood failed 10
bring return fire, they hunted up
City Policeman o. p. Woods and
fired few shots In his general di-
rection.
According to the funny story
books, the ''buIl" should have By
rights taken to the tall timber, but
this example Of the Law failed to live
up 10 expectations and, on the COM
trary, waited until the 10y riders"
came on his beat again and pinched
the lot, booze, guns, car and DRINKS.
Tuesday morning Judge OFT tried
the case and laid down the neat little
fine Of SO days in the fhoosgoW' and
$40 apiece for the malefactors, and
an additional sentence Of 90 daya
more for the driver for speeding.
IA the future Young men who de-
sire to celebrate Saturday night will
take untrodden paths far to the lee
ward Of the city police department
