The Solution of the Problem

10 furnish The telephone service which will
be needed in the state Of Louisiana during
1921, additional facilities must be constructed
To build these facilities will cost SO, 292 100000.
The Company has no money with which 10
construct these facilities.
All new construction must be paid for out
Of the capital account of the Company; all OF
the Company's present capital is invested in
the COmpany's business.
This money can be had in only one way: It
must be invested In the COmpany's business.
This money can be had from only one
source; from the investing public, people who
have surplus money to invest
Part Of the investing public Of this country
live in Louisiana.
These facilities are needed to serve the peo-
pie Of Louisiana
Will the investing public OF Louisiana fur
nish this money?
Every dollar the public of Louisiana will
invest in the Company will be used to con-
struct plant facilities in the state Of Louisiana
for the use Of the people of Louisiana.
If the investing public living In Louisiana
will not invest their surplus money In the
Company's business the Company must get
the money needed to serve you from the in
vesting public in other states; from strangers
Can you expect strangers to invest their
money in business located In Louisiana in
which the people of Louisiana will not invest
their money!

DUN I TINKER |S
 EXPERT ADVICE

One of the bits of advice that strike the eye of every man who runs through the numerous articles on motor care, or who studies an instruction book is this: Don't tinker.'' Nearly all of them leave the reader in doubt as to just where proper care leaves off and tinkering begins.
 Webster says that the tinkerer is "one skilled in petty mechanical work" but that doesn't exactly fit the present meaning. The trouble with most habitual tinkerers is that they aren't skilled at all.
 A man may be a lawyer or a doctor or a real estate agent but if he is a natural mechanic and knows why ne grindS his valves and how to do it, and exactly how the pieces go together, he can surely grind valves without being accused of tinkering. So thing that would be tinkering for one man is proper care for another.
 It is just about the same with bat teries, but there are fewer car owners who are at home in the special field of battery care than in those parts that concern only mechanical knowledge.
 So, for practically all owners the line between battery care and battery tink ering is quite sharply drawn. The only safe rule is to put water in regularly to keep the solution at the proper level. and to keep connections tight, but aside from that to let the battery en- tirely alone.
 The Willard Storage Batterp com pany has service stations equipped to give adequate assistance to the car owner, and this leading manufacturer urges owners to take advantage of this service to lengthen the life of the bat tery,

chlnaman and His Queue.

On April 16, at what was once the
village of Fanpoux, I met a Chinese
who was trying to grow a queue. 1t
was only about a foot long and did
not improve his appearance any. That
day while out in the fields salvaging
ammunition, his nose told him he was
in the vicinity of some unsuccessfully
buried foreigners. he was hardened
by this time to all sorts Of disagree
able things, but the incident went to
the back of his head and only served
to strengthen his belief that he should
grow a queue. Foreigners wear their
hair cut short. He had been in France
going on two years and had long since
concluded that he did not want to imi-
tate them. Hence the queue.-World's s
Work.

LAW AS TO COLOR BLINDNESS
Does Not Mean Loss Of Sight Accord
inq to Ruling Made by Georgia
Superior Court.

Color blindness does not mean total
loss of sight in the meaning Of the law,
It was held recently by Judge John L.
Pendleton in the motion division OF
Superior court at Atlanta, Ga.
. Judge Pendleton's decision cleared
q legal point raised only once before
IN the United States, so far as is shown
by court records. This was in Ne
braska, where both the lower court
and the State Supreme court held that
color blindness means total blindness.
The question was raised in a suit
brought by George L. Fallin, who was
q locomotive engineer for the Atlanta
Joint Terminals, against the Locomo-
tive Engineer Mutual Insurance and
Accident association, branch OF
the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-.
gineers.
Engineer Fallin, it was set out, be-
came color blind while engaged in his
line of duty and was discharged from
his position. He then applied to the
engineers association for his insur-
ance-$1, ,5OO-for the loss Of his eye
sight, as stipulated in the policy. The
association, however, declined to pay
the amount on the ground that color
blindness did not come within the
terms of the policy concerning blind
ness. Fallin then brought suit in the
courts through his counsel, City Attor-
ney James L. Mayson.

Dantzia Rich in Memories.

The old fortress Of Dantzig is rich

the man Of destiny failed to heed the
intimations Of a grand council Of his
marshals-Murat, Ney and the rest
that his star had passed perihelion
It was here that he upbraided them for
having grown soft in prosperity. and
for opposing the invasion of Russia
and it was from Dantzig that his le-
gions Jumped off, for the 1n-fated
Moscow campaign.
In later day Dantzig was the back
