,TRA|NM[.|S ANNUAL
BALL GREAT SUCCESS
ABOUT ESQ COUPLES IN ATTEN.
ANCE-RAIWAY MEN GOOD
ENTERTAINERS,

one OF the most interesting and
most successful social events of the
winter season, ofar, was the annual
ball given at the Normal school gym
naslum last evening by the local
trainmen. Preparations for the big
affair were formulated early enough
to insure large attendance not only
people from this city but from the
whole countryside surrounding Madi-
son.
Last nights dance was a gratifying
success to the committee on enter
tainment, and from the start to the
finish the gay devotees of the Tight
fantastic" enjoyed every moment of
the time. 1t is estimated that two
hundred and fifty couples took ad-
vantage of the splendid floor and
danced as they never did before, to
the music furnished by Leonard
Smiths splendid Apollo orchestra.
Morning was far advanced before the
crowd departed for their respective
homes.
People were there from Winfred,
Ramona, Sioux Falls, Oldham, Went
worth, Chester and from other towns
and villages in this and adjoining
counties. Mrs. B. G. Johnson, sta
tion agent at Naples, was among the
out of town people who took in the
dance, also train master F. j. Holmes
of Austin, Mimi. OF course the To-
cal trainmen were out in force.
Those responsible for last even
ing's enjoyment, meaning the train
men and their committees desire to
thank the Madison people, and more
particularly the business mr. of the
city, for their contribution t, re sue
cess achieved.
1t goes without saying that those
in attendance would reciprocate by
mentioning their appreciation to the
local railroad men for the pleasude
enjoyed.

IS ACCUSED
BRANDED agent OF III. G. L."
BY WOOL GROWERS.

Salt Lake City, Jan. Civ. j.
Bryan was named here by Frank J.
Hagenbarth as an agent for the high
cost of living.
Hagenbarth, president of the
American Wool Growers association,
told his convention:
1T is now seven years since an
iniquitous frame-up engineered by
w. J. Bryan fastened these free trade
shackles on the unorganized farmers.
1t is only by the grace of God and the
artificial help Of the war that Amer
lean meat and wool husbandry has
survived"
Hagenbarth attacked the railroad
administration and the federal trade
commission.
Railroad service has been so poor
as to inspire the thought it was de-
liberately so," he said.
Criticizing the trade commission,
|Hagenbarth said the big packers are
"quasi-public institutions and should
operate under fair federal supervi-
sion."
Hagenbarth claimed there will be
no reduction in wool prices. He as
serted so per cent reduction in the
price Of wool would mean only a
$3.50 reduction on a suit Of clothes.
One thousand sheep growers planned
to urge wider recognition of mutton
as a food.

Newark, N. j., Jan. 21.--"When a

This was one of the epigrams de-
livered by Miss Louise Connolly, edu-
cational expert of the Newark public
library, to the Y. w. G. A. here in
what she called "fireside talk" on

"If you don't get married, you may

Connolly said, "for the sex instinct is

This drive they believe will be cal
culated to annihilate Poland as buff

appeals for nurses to combat the
spread of influenza and pneumonia,

on installing the new modern tele-
phone system here, have arrived and
the work will be started within the
next few days. It will be several
days, however, before much Roadway
is made as shipments Of material are
slow and the organization of the va

some time. The switchboard was

daily. It is thought the plant viii

GREAT SOUTHERN TO Sell HOMES
TO EMPLOYEES AND BUILD MORE
Believed That Solution to Housing Question Will Be
Solved and Action VIII Prove Beneficial to Work
men, the City of BOgalusa and the Great Southern
Prices and Terms Ready About May Only Em-
plOyes May Buy Houses

AS a result of action by the Off
GERS of the Great Southern Lumber
Company the home question in b.
galusa is believed to have been
solved, and at the same time another
step has been taken toward relieving
the shortage of houses.
Announcement has been made that
the Great Southern Lumber COMPANY
will offer their houses on the South
Side for sale to employees and on
such terms that the thrifty will find
it as convenient to own a home as
to pay rent. Prices and terms will
be announced not later than Nav /.
and limited number of houses will
be Offered each month. The details
have not yet been worked out.
According to present plans, how
ever, about ten or twelve houses will
be offered each month. Preference
will be givent the present occupants,
who are in the employ of the Great
Southern Lumber Company or the
Bogalusa Paper Company. Just as
fast as these listed houses are sold
and arrangements can be made, new
houses will be built by the Great
Southern Lumber Company, and by
this process of selling and building
it is expected that by the first of
next year there will be sufficient
houses in Bogalusa to supply large

and $2.93. This did not include a
layer of concrete for the foundation,
as was mentioned in the Enterprise
several weeks ago. Mr.. Peutsman
stated that this concrete layer over
the foundation could be had for
about 40 cents per square yard adj
ditional.
None of the bids carried a guaran-
tee Of maintenance for five years,
the longest period for which bond
ing company will furnish bond, but
it is believed all the contractors
would furnish bond if the city would
paw the cost of the bond.
The bids for the material between
the Barrett Company and the Ameri-
can Tar Company were close, with
figures in favor of the latter, which
was represented in the bidding by
Frank Rowell.
The city reserved the right to re-
ject any and all bids and definite ac-
ton is expected to be taken at the
regular meeting of the Commission
Council on Tuesday evening April g..

to Have
Fine Kindergarf2r

Bogalusa is to have a kindergar-
ten which will compare favorably
with any in the country, as the re-
suit of the efforts of Mrs. w. 7.
darlington and other ladies who have
been active in arousing interest
among the mothers Of Bogalusa.
Mrs. darlington appeared before
the School Board committee Tuesday
afternoon and went into detail of the
good which could be accomplished,
the necessity of having such a school
in Bogalusa, etc. Her appeal for the
school impressed the School Board
members, city officials and citizens
and all were heartily in favor of the
kindergarten.
At the next meeting of the Com
mission Council money will be voted
to maintain the school and an expert
graduate will be secured to conduct
the kindergarten. The term will be
the same as the school term and one
session will be held at the Y. w. G. A.
in the morning or afternoon, and the
same teacher will devote half of her
time to holding a school in North
Bogalusa. Efforts will be made to
get the school started tor the little
folks within the next two or three
weeks, and if graduate cannot be
secured now, one viii be engage for
next fall. Such a teacher, it is said,
can be secured for $125.00 per
month, which was all that was asked
of the officials.

percentage of the demands.
The Great Southern Lumber Com
pany felt that as long as no one else
was taking any action, and realizing
that if the city was to grow as it
should, that many new houses should
be built and the start made at once.
By the liberal plan which the
Great Southern will offer their
houses, Bogalusa should soon be one
of the great homecoming commune
ties of the state. With wages the
highest in the history of the world,
with the future of Bogalusa the
brightest of any city in the entire
South, there should be a great de-
mand for the homes. At the same
time it will make the present en-
ployes of the company thrifty and
at the end of q few years they will
own valuable piece Of property, in
stead of batch of rent receipts.
Employees of the company are en-
thusiastic over the announcement
and are eagerly awaiting the prices
and terms on the property. That
there will be several persons ready
to purchase the house in the event
the present occupant cannot, or does
not desire to purchase it, is expected.
No encouragement will be given to
those who desire to purchase one of
the homes from speculative stand
point.

Another great improvement for
the city of Bogalusa will be well I'M
der way within the next thirty days
as a result of contract being let
to Messrs. j. B. and P. H. Burke, of
Hattiesburg, Miss, for the erection
of a two-story brick High School
building, which is to be located in
North Bogalusa. Work is expected
to start within the next few days and
the building to be ready for service
BY early fall. 1t will not likely be
ready for the opening of the school
term in September, but by the latter
part of October, unless there are un-
expected delays in securing material.
The building will have frontage
of $50 feet and is to be located in a
square of ground which was donated
to the city by the Great Southern
Lumber Company a year or so ago.
The highest bid for the work was
that of Gwin & Co., being $187,975,
which did not include the plumbing,
heating and other work, which would
have made the bid the highest
received. In connection with the
Gwin Company bid Gaiennie & Co.
of New Orleans submitted bid for
