competent medical attention and the
young lady in charge of the house
was doing heroic work, but five pa
tients proved too much for her.
In spite of sentimental reasons on
the Brady family, there were five of
ing home for treatment, the health
authorities of the city decided that
for their own, and the community
good, the five patients should be
given hospital care. Consequently
they were brought to the hospital

In a general sense, it is all land
by reason of rainfall and climatic
and soil conditions that is capable
of growing commercial trees.
More practically, however, timbet
growing land, when referred to by
professional foresters, in the light of
our ever decreasing timber supply, is
that land which is capable of grow
ing commercial trees, and is not suit
ed, by reason Of topography, drain
age and soil fertility and conditions
for agricultural pursits, as well as all
tree-growing land which is not need
ed for cultivation.
Depletion of our timber resources
has not resulted from the use Of our
timber, but from the failure to use
our timber-grow;ng land, so says the

Mayor w. H. Sullivan informs the
Enterprise that the PatOrno Deep
Well Company, which was employed
by the City of Bogalusa some time
ago for the purpose of drilling
enough wells to supply the city with
plenty Of water, brought in their
first well last Friday and it is now
flowing at the rate of 400 to 500 gal
lions per minute. Immediately upon
the bringing in of the well, work was
begun to connect it with the city
mains and the first part OF. the city
to feel the added supply will be
Northeast Bogalusa, where there has
been very low pressure for some
time.
The Patorno Company will con-
tinue to sink wells until it has found
a supply that will meet every de-
mand Of the city for years to come.

intent to commit murder.
The bullet entered the right side
of the neck and is now imbedded
somewhere in the left side of Mrs.
Scrogg MS neck. X-ray pictures have
been made, locating the bullet, and
as soon as tae swelling has been re-
duced it will be removed. For a
time it was thought the wound woQld

ing her sister desired her to accom-
pany her to a dance that was an
nounced in Richardsontown. Mel
vim Smith, a friend Of Mrs. Scrog-
gins from Willard, Miss, was present
and agreed to accompany the women
to the dance. She did not wish to
dance and with Smith went to the
flowing we'll for water. On her re-
turn two men approached the crowd
where she was standing and seemed
to be bantering each other. One Of
the men, with the remark, lis /

G. S. L. LAUNCHES
BODYBUILDING
CRUSADE
Chicago Building Concern
to Handle Big Contract
Preaching more Homes
Is Hobby of Presidential
Nominee Cox.

In last weeks issue of the Enter
prise, report of the address by
Mayor Sullivan included his PROPOSE
ton that. the Great Southern Lun-
Der Company would erect a house for
each one purchased by an employee,
and that the new house would double
the value of the old one Already
that proposition promises to mean
great things for Bogalusa. A num-
Der of houses have already been pur-
chased and the Great Southern has
launched a house-building program
that will create scores of homes here
in the immediate future.
The Raymond G. Hitchcock Com
pany, of Chicago, a regular house
building corporation, has been en-
gagged to come to Bogalusa and su-
perintend this great building boom.
The bringing in of an outside cor
poration was made necessary because
local contractors are so busy with in
diYidual contracts that the could
not undertake the larger job at this
time The need of houses in BO-
galusa is imperative, and the work Of
building them must be undertaken
now, hence the Great Southern went
to Chicago and brought here q COM
pany that is regarded as one Of the
best building concerns in the coun-
try. The manager Of the Hitchcock
company reached Bogalusa Tuesday
morning and is now on the job It
viii be but a short time until there
are seen large number of houses
in process of erection.
With the launching Of this house
building program there will be, with
out doubt, q new impetus to the
home-buying program. '90wn your
own homeD should appeal now as
never before to people who really IN
tend making Bogalusa their future
home. 1t seems that the time has
come when the Magic City is des-
tined to become a city Of hometown
ers and prosperous people. The spirit
Of the day is against the habit Of
perpetual renting. So nearly has the
homecoming spirit permeated the
whole of the United States that the

MRS. SUTTON HAS NARROW
ESCAPE IN AUTO COLLISION

Mrs. J. w. Sutton had a narrow
escape from serious injury on Friday
night of last week when the car she
was driving collided with a wagon on
the north side of Goodyear Park.
She was driving slowly, when a
wagon which was standing under the
shade of the trees there was backed
into the road. The crash came in
stantly, sending the flying glass from
the windshield against Mrs. Sutton,
cutting her severely in a number of
places. She was taken to the hos
pital where her wounds were dressed.
The car was slightly damaged as
was also the wagon. Mrs. Sutton is
recovering from her wounds.

United States Forest Service report
to the United States Senate.
This report states further, that
other causes have been chiefly re-
sponsible for the lumber shortage,
bat that the public welfare viii be
threatened unless there is better as
surance of forest perpetuation. 1t
gives no support to. the theory that
lumbermen merit public reproof, for
.so-cslled selfish destruction or con-
troll Of forest resources. The public,
the small land owner and lumberman
alike are exhorted to encourage more
vigorous forest replacement, en-
HANGED by better fire prevention, as
the main solution of the problem
most needed and most practicable.
Therefore it is not question Of
how much timber is being used. It
