When J. T. Thomas, an honest and
intelligent colored brick layer OF

d.. Quin, arriving here at 1920 p. M,
on Wednesday, he Immediately went
20 DR.. GUMS office in the First Nat
ioral Bank Building only to find him
out of the city. Not knowing any
other doctor, he wandered down the
street until he came tc a colored drug
store, ard at the fountain, said he
wanted 10 consult q doctor. The clerk
said heres a doctor" and introduced
OR" Spencer who forthwith carried
the patient to his Office, and cXamin-
ed him. He wrote something on a
piece of paper, but was careful
enough to keep within the law and
did not give it to the patient, but told
him to &c to the drug store and he
would get him the medicine. lie did
20, and few. minutes later, the
doctor" appeared and went behind
The screen then the girl came out and
gave him two bottles and a box
and said Two dollars for the doctor
and four-ffty for the medicine" which
Thomas paid. The girl gave him q
card reading, OR. Spencer, Herb
Doctor" lie protested that he wanted
n medical doctor not an "herb"
doctor and opening the package be-
came suspicious as there were nc
numbers on the label. He demanded
his money back, which was refused,
so he sought Officer Schre!l who re-
ferred him to Chief Tucker, CHIEF

the county health officer, DR.. Myers,
and the two with Thomas sought

was Immediately paid.
Or" Spencer agreed to suspend

GUARANTEEING against Charlton NAV

from it unless horse-fies, buzzards,
dogs, ETC., are also quarantined
against, as they are carriers and
spreaders of the infection. Charlton

animal to another, but indirectly,
through the medium of infected food

oculation from the outside by in
fected horse-Aies, and other blood
sucking insects. The most important
thing to quarantine" is the charbon-
infected carcass by burning, so as to
destroy the source of infection and
prevent its being carried and spread

which we have mentioned. The blood

TIME FOR HONEY HARVEST

July is the month when most bee
keepers in Louisiana are reaping a
harvest of honey from their bees, es-
peciaIly those in the middle portion Of
the State" says E. C. Davis, special
iat in bee culture, Extension Division
Of the Louisiana State University.
There are many plants blossOming
in the wet low lands which produce
large surplus of honey-sOmetimes
hundred pounds or more may be OBJ
tanned during this month alone. In
order to get this result tie bees must
be given care and ate ntion. They
must have sufficient ventilation, and
plenty Of super room in which to
store honey, and enough room in the
brood chamber for the queen to lay
withut being crowded by brood or
honey. This usually keepz the colony
contented and hard at work.
Don't let the bees hang out in the
II SlIt "a tslS HINc hcSp IAiciu WI ming.
This cannot be prevented with the
homemade box hive, but it can be
done easily with the modern movable
frame hive. II is pleasure to the
beehceper to be able to remove slabs
of honey containing seven or eight
pounds ZACH from this style of hive
at enc movement instead Of having
to cut opt small chunks covered with
dead bees and in doing so demoralize
the colony and perhaps receive doz-
ems CT stings.
Modern Bookkeeping is a very in
teresting occupation. The work i
light. with TO routine duties to per
form at fixed times and no drudgery.
Il is profitsb bic business for both
men and women.

ONLY FOUR PAGES THIS WEEK

During ell the time of the present
management Of the Journal we have
been using what is called a patent
print, first six patent pages and then
only four However, lately, since the
price of news print became SO high
our patent prints were relatively as
high, and we found that it would not
BE possible to give this much paper
under the present high price. There
were one of two things we could
have done. Either raise the subscrlp-
.ticn price of the Journal to $500 pc:

We decided to dispense with the pat
ents, and hope that our readers will
understand. We will, in the future,

was a saw mill worker and was max
ing three hundred dollars a month
shortly before engaging in the liquor
business, but it seems that he found
the latter more profitable. A lot of

the sheriff. They say that after the
raid and the liquor was locked up
it was proven that the sheriff GER
tainly had q lot Of friends to call on
him, but he surmised that it was not
his popularity that brought them to
the Jail and told them that what they
were after was under the same lock
as the man who made it.

THE PATIENT LITTLE JAPANESE.

There was little Kiku San, the DOH who
declared she WAS made in Japan, though
all the Others said they were sure she was
made in the United States Of America,
somewhere; there was Marie, the French
doll-no one disputed her when she said
she was made in Paris, for she came over
in Aunt Molly's trunk.
Then there was big, blue-eyed Dolly
with flaxen curls, real little American,
and little sailor boy dressed in blue and
white All of them sat by the wall in the
playroom looking very sad and lonely.
"Why don't she take one OF r with
herr" said Marie. "Of course, such =
large family would have been great
deal of trouble, but just one would have
been easy for any little mother to care
for"
"My hair needs combing," said Dolly
as she shook out her curls. Just
think, it is two weeks since one OF us
have been moved from the wall. l."

MEASURE MAY STOP .
TEACHER SHORTAGE
SENATOR DoUSsAN OF LUTCHER
WOULD FILL EMPTY RANKS
BY SCHOLARSHIPS,
WILL LIMIT SCHOLARSHIP
Could Be Given To Young Men and
Women Who Had Proved Them
selves Worthy Could Be Placed
BY State Board.

Baton Rouge. - A bill designed to
help solve Louisiana's problem Of de-
veloping a corps of efficient teachers,
great enough in number to really meet
the educational needs of the state, will
be introduced In the Senate in the
near future by Senator J. E. Doussan
Of Lutcher.
The measure will authorize the po-
lice juries of the various parishes to
allot scholarships in institutions ap-
proved by the State Board Of Educa-
ton to young men and women who
agree, after they have finished their
course, to spend a fixed period Of
years as teachers in the schools Of
the state.
Under Senator DOuSsan's plan, the
period whic hthey would be required
to spend teaching would be fixed az
from two to five years. The exact
length of time will be decided by him
and designated In the bill.
The number of scholarships that
might be issued probably will be lin
tied in the bill to one from each ward
and three at large from each parish.
The expenditures involved would be
paid for out of the general fund Of the
individual parishes
Under the plan," said Senator
Doussan, the individual parishes
could determine for themselves just
what number of the scholarships IL
was entitled to should be issued. Some
Of the parishes might want to issue
all allowed them, others might want tc
issue only one or two, depending or
the state of their finances,
1.-THE scholarships could be given t
young men and women who had prov
ed themselves worthy and they could
be placed in any institution of learn
ing approved by the State Board O.
Education.
The institution might be located
anywhere in the country and it Nigh
be Methodist, Catholic, Presbyterian
o ra non.sectarian institution Thi
would enable the student, under Ger
tain regulations, to attend college o
Institution of his family's liking.
"At the present time, one OF Louis
iana's greatest problems is that OF oil
tanning enough efficient teachers t
meet its needs. This plan should hel
out materially In this, for each srut
elnt accepting one of the scholarship
would promise to return after trainin
was completed and teach in tn
schools of the parish from which h
was given the scholarship for ce
tain number Of years"
