3-YEAR-OLD CHILD
DIES SUDDENLY

Minnie Lee, the three-year-old
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. w. II. Hol-
leym, residing in Bogalusa Terrace,
died suddenly last Friday morning.
The cause of the child's death has
not been determined, but the parents
think that the child possibly ate gel
low jasmine. The physician called
to attend the child, but who arrived
after death, said pneumonia.
Mrs. Holley said the child had been
slightly feverish for several days, but
was apparently normal Friday morn
ing and was allowed to go and play.
About 10 o'clock Minnie Lee came
into the house and climbed in bed
beside her mother, who was slightly
indisposed. The child almost imme-
diatelp lapsed into inconsistencies
and fifteen minutes later was dead.
The yellow jasmine theory is sub
stantiated by the fact that the child's
apron pocket was filled with the
flowers Of the yellow jasmine, which
are a deadly poison.
The funeral services we're held
Saturday and burial was in the Boz
galusa Cemetery.

The committed of citizens, COM
posed of Charles Webster, chairman;
A. A. Overstreet, H. .Greenberg, j.
A. Spekenhier and H. B. Buck, who
left last week to visit a number Of
cities to investigate the various kinds
OF paving, returned home SATURDAY.
evening and on Monday afternoon
made their report to the Commission
Council
In view of the cost of the various
pavements, the upkeep of same, the.
committee unanimously recommend
ed the Tarvia type of pavement for
Bogalusa.
In New Orleans they found the
streets generally in bad condition,
due to poor drainage and not enough
crown and lack Of upkeep. The en-
tire committee reports that the
streets in New Orleans were a disap-
pointment, there being few good ones
and many bad ones. One new tarvia
street was giving excellent SER
vice and satisfaction, while a second
one, which had been down but six
months, was impossible. This was
due to the bad foundation or the
crown of the street.
At Birmingham they found several
types of paving, including tarvia and
asphalt, which were in bad condition,
while others which had not received
heavy traffic were in good condition.
AT Columbus, Ca, they found five
miles of tarvia pavement which was
put down in 1908, with an eight
inch limestone foundation, which had
been recoated once every four years.
This was the best piece of paving
found in the three cities visited by
the committee. In the same city
they found sheet asphalt and brick
paving, which was in fine condition.
The committee further reports
that good streets are to be secured:
First-By thoroughly preparing
the sub-foundation. The earth should
be rolled and rerolled by a heavy
roller.
Second-The foundation must be
made amply thick. Eight inches was
used at Columbus.
Third-That the proper crown
must be used which viii give the
proper drainage.
Folrth-That the process used.

G.S.L. Camps Are
Breaking Records

For the past several months there
has been a cry for more production,
which is admitted to be the only
means of reducing the cost of living.
There is one class of workmen who
are doing their part, if reports that
have reached Bogalusa are correct.
Z In the various camps Of the Great
Southern Lumber Company the men
are reported to- be doing more work
than at any time in the past several
years. Many times it looked as if
the plant Of the Great Southern Lum-
Der Company would be forced to
close down for a few hours to wait
for logs, but now the men are cutting
them SO fast that it keeps the train
crews busy trying to keep up with
them.
In view of the fact that this win
ter has been one Of the most dis
agreeable for woods work, their rec
ord is attracting much attention of
the officials.
"The credit is due each and every
man on the various crews" said Log
ging Superintendent Frank Cassidy,
land to no individual Because it
takes the cooperation Of everyone IN
the camps to keep things humming. >
The directors of the Great South
ern Lumber Company, and their
guests, who will come tomorrow, viii
likely visit the camps during their
stay here.
Bogalusa enterprise and American. (Bogalusa, La.) 1918-19??, 1920-03-18

must be properly applied. The APP
plicatiOn Of tarvia is a mechanical
process which involves considerable
accuracy and care, and should be ap-
Piled only under the supervision of
an experience inspector.
Flfth-That the paving must be
properly maintained.
Chairman Webster called attention
to the fact that before the physical
construction of the paving is begun
that there should be certain traffic
regulations prohibiting heavy haul
ing, running of automobiles on the
rim, and tractors with dogs on
their wheels from running on the
paved streets. He also called atten-
ton to the fact that traffic now is
light, but when the streets are paved
that larger trucks will be used. Con-
nectiohs for sewer and water mains
should be prepared before the streets
are paved, as well as underground
telephone wire and gas main connec-
lions, which will result in the paving
not being disturbed at a later date.
In summing up his report Mr..
Webster recommends Tarvia, but re-
gardless of the material and process
used he considerers more important
these four essentials; ID Drainage;
~ Foundation; (3l Workmanship;
"a Maintenance.
Mr.. Spekenhier states that brick,
bitulithic and wood block costs are
prohibitive for the amount of funds
on hand and recommends Tarvia paw
ing. He considers the building
should be under the immediate direc-
ton and supervision of an expert
enced man.
A. A. Overstreet finds that Tarvia
is the least expensive and when built
properly, with good foundation and
proper drainage, it win last as long
as concrete.
H. B. Buck states that Tarvia
Penetration Pavement is the one that
Will suit the people of Bogalusa--it
is easyt to put down, easy to maintain
and will meet all requirements de-
manded by the City of Bogalusa dur
ing the next ten years.
Mr.. Greenberg states that with q
good foundation, proper drainage and
and maintenance Of the streets that
Tarvia win give splendid satisfaction
here, at q low cost.

BIENN GETS CARLOAD
COLUMBIA MACHINES

When it comes to buying in guam
tity or quality, there are few towns
the size of Bogalusa that receive
larger shipments or better merchan-
disc. There is scarcely day that a
carload of flour, or some other ar
ticle is not received here.
D. Bienn, the Columbia dealer, on
Columbia street, broke all records
for musical instrument shipments last
week when he received a carload Of
Columbia monographs. The ship
ment includes practically every style
Of machine made by this company
and Mr.. Bienn offers them to the cit
liens of Bogalusa and vicinity at
prices which are as low as they can
be purchased anywhere. He is also
offering these instruments on easy
terms to responsible people and, as
Dave says, there is no reason why
there cannot be q Columbia in every
BOgalusa home now"
Owners Of various musical instru-
ments will be glad to know that Mr.
Bienn also has a complete stock OF
records. Any record that you can
name Of the current month issue can
always be had. Records of several
past months are also available
and old records can be secured with
in q few days.

Colonial Hotel
Damaged by Fire

Fire at the Colonial Hotel at 9
o'clock last Thursday morning did
damage to the amount of $4,000 and
caused several of the guests to hur-
riedly leave their beds.
The fire originated in the kitchen.
The cook on leaving the kitchen
Wednesday night left pot of grease
on the end Of the stove. When the
Waterman came in at 8 a. m. to light
the IRE, he thought the cook would
want 1t warm so he set it in the mid
die OF the stove after he had started
q good fire. Thirty minutes later
the night clerk discovered the fire
which had gained good Roadway.
Several persons occupied four
rooms above the kitchen and when
the couple in the room over the stove
were awakened, they discovered that
the floor was mighty hot and they
got out in a hurry.
The fire department held the blaze
to the kitchen.
Every guest at the hotel, number
ing about 100, were out Of their
rooms shortly after the alarm was
sounded and it was the most exciting
fire in the history of the city.
In view Of the fact that the kitch-
en- was completely wrecked and that
lao people were to be served with
meals put Manager Hugh Headley up
against a task that thoroughly tested
his catering ability, and he has met
the situation.
Trying to feed 140 people without
a kitchen was a job. A temporary
kitchen was erected, but meal time
was at hand and no stove in sight.
Mr. Headley happened to think of
big range he had used while in the
business a few years ago,
and it was brought to the kitchen and
put in commission and was able to
meet the requirements, which were
heavy.
Until the kitchen in rebuilt and the
new equipment arrives the present
plan, which is working satisfactorily,
viii be continued. The greatest in
is to the Mattresses, who
have a considerable distance to carry
the trays.

Headley just before leaving for New
Orleans yesterday, where he went to
purchase new equipment.

ATTACKS DAVIS;
HAD BAD LUCK

Bogalusa folks who read in the
New Orleans papers a few days ago
about Baton Rouge man being
put off the floor Of a ballroom, and
who later attacked the man who or
dered him off, threatening to kill
him, viii be further interested to
know that the man attacked was a
brother of Sam Davis, formerly one
Of Bogalusa's most popular citizens,
but who is now engaged in the brok-
erage business in New Orleans.
When the man struck Mr.. Davis
with the butt end Of a revolver, Davis
elinehed his assailant and in the
scuffIe that followed the revolver
was discharged and the bullet took
effect in the assaiIant's leg, breaking
the bone. He is now in jail at Baton
Rouge, charged with assault with IN
tent to kill.

and making record productions. With
the Great Southern now running at
full capacity 1T will assist in better
operating conditions of the paper
mill, as it has been necessary to
bring fuel wood from the woods,
which it is now believed can be Sc
cured from the plant.
The Richard P. Baer Company, OPP
Grating the hardwood mill in North
Bogalusa, have double the number of
their employees and started night
shift since the Great Southern closed
down last fall.
The Bogalusa Veneer Company is
running full time, as is also the Co
lonial Creosoting Company.
The N. O.. G. N. shops are work
ing many men and the opening Of the
cigar factory is giving employment
to fifty women. All Of these indus
tries give Bogalusa more employment
than ever, with every person being
paid high wages, the city today is in
the midst of an era of its greatest
prosperity.
Within thirty days it is expected
there will be several thousands of
dollars paid to workingmen on the
parish roads, which are to be built
in two directions from the city. This
is to be followed by large force OF
men, paving the streets of Bogalusa.
Then there viii be still others work
ing on the water and sewer extern
sions, and already several crews are
working on the new school houses OF
the city.

SLEEPS ON TRACK;
KILLED BY TRAIN

A negro employed by the N. D. G..
N. went to sleep on the track just
below Sun Friday afternoon. A mo-
tor car passed and the driver warned
the negro that it was dangerous to
sleep on the track.
He evidently did not think so, for
a few minutes later ne decided to
take another siesta--then the south
bound passenger train came along.
The engineer pulled on the whistle
cord and shrieked warning, but the
negro did not awaken. When it was
seen the negro was not going to move
the emergency brakes were applied,
but the train could not be stopped
before it struck the negro. A ghast-
" wound in the head resulted. He
was brought to Bogalusa where he
died Sunday.
