Even with Bogalusa's excellent fire
department and great record for
keeping the fire losses the lowest in
the state, there is a possibility of
your home being damaged, and even
if not destroyed, it is possible for the
loss to run high.
IF insured with any of our COM
panies, the payment will be just as
prompt for damage as if total loss.

AMERICAN FRIENDS AID
RED CROSS CAMPAIGN
Service Committee Helping TO
Secure Clothing for Desti-
tute Europe.

IN order that a speedy collection
OF clothing may be had for the chill
dren Of Europe. the American
Friends Service Committee and the
American National Red Cross haNn
joined in a national campaign TO pro-
cure clothing for the people OF csn-
trail and Eastern Europe. The
Friends are distributing in Poland
Austria. Germany and Russia. While
both of these orsaniza tions have been
taking an active part in this work for
the Last few months a special drive
has been arranged for the balance OF
the summer SO that thousa nds Of
garments may be sent TO Europe for
use next winter.
This campaign that the Red Cross
and the American Friends are hold
ing is not an appeal for money. al
though money for new clothing and
material will be welcomed. Ii is
primarily a request that every fam
ny collect outgrown. old-fahioned
partly worn clothing that is stin use
ful or can be made useful and give
il to the Red Cross 10 be distributed
70 the people Of Europe. whose old
clothes have been completely worn
out and who cannot buy new clothes
before next winter.
The headquarters for the Delaware
Red Cross are in the Old City Hall
Sixth and Market streets. Here the
old discarded clothing may be sent
or materials may be obtained to be
made into childrens new garments.
Wool also is being distributed at this
center 10 be knit into children's caps.
sweaters and stockings.
During the week many individuals
have applied for materials and are
deeply interested, in the work. The
Middletown branch of the Red Cross
is one of the most recent TO have or
ganized. A supply of little children's
garments were sent to the young
women Of the Bancroft Company yes

SEALS COMING BACK
!. TO Be PLENTIFUL AGAIN
This Years Catch in Far North
west Will Reach One Hun
dred Thousand Pelts.

Vancouver, B. C., July 14.-F'ur
sealing in Alaskan and British Col
umbian waters. which suffered for
many years because of decimation
OF the herds through indiscriminate
killing, has returned and thousands
Of animals are expected 10 be taken
this year.
OFF the west coast of Vancouver
Island alone Indians are expected to
capture 1000 Of the fur bearing ami
mails, and the total catch for the year
may reach 100 600. it is estimated
Last year the waters along the
Washington coast produced 1900
skins.
The story Of the Alaskan fur seal
herd is an interesting one. When the
tnited States acquired Alaska from
Russia. the herd was estimated at
$500. 600. Then, through pelagic
sealing with its indiscriminate
slaughter and attendant waste Of life
as well as through lack of interna-
tional understanding on the question
Of conservatism. the seals all but
disappeared. the industry fell off and
their capture became illegal.
The decline OF the seal herd was
pitiable. Shot at sea under this
method five or more bodies were lost
for each one recovered. There also
was great waste due TO starvation of
pups on the shore. Under such con-
ditions the great herd rapidly dwind-
led until in 1911 there were but ap-
proximately 125,000.
OF prolific tendencies. the seals.
however, multiplied rapidly after
closed seasons were Instituted for
their protection.

SOLICITORS OFFICES
LOCATED IN CITY HALL
Council Agrees to Provide STEM
ographer at Salary Not
Exceeding 81 ,O4O.

For the greater convenience not
only of the City Council, but of all
other city Department., City Solicitor
Satterthwaite is to establish per-
manent office in the city hall In one
OF the committee rooms set aside for
the use of the city Council on the
third noor. He liz TO he allowed the
services Of n stenographer who will
be in the office all the time during
the day and who will be prepared to
give access to the records of the Of
fee and information in the absence
of the city solicitor.
The finance committee of City
Council informed the other members
at the meeting of the committee of
the whole last night that they had
decided to recommend the adoption of
an ordinance authorizing the solicit
tor to employ a stenographer at a
salary of not more than Sl.040 per
year for the purpose of taking charge
of this office Chairman McManus
explained that all the records Of the
solicitor regarding the city's business
will be kept in this office and will re-
main there after he leaves. He said
II will not then be necessary to be
running to his office in some other
building and that with the clerk on
hand all day any information desired
will be availa BILE. He said no pro-
vision had been made in this years
budget for this extra salary for this
employe but he though the taxi cab
licenses would take care of the stem
ographer's pay. The committee mem
bers agreed. he said. that the expen-
diture would be a good one and that
il would pay the city To have such
an office.
Councilman McNahh opposed the
plan. He said he could not see where
the advantages gained would repay
the city for the extra expenditure Of
cash and ne thought it look ed like
an effort 10 get rid OF city money.
He said they would have to hunt for
the city solicitor just the same and
he declared he would vote against
the recommendation.
Councilman Murray said IL Mr. Nc
Nabb knew the trouble the bid Cuun-
ell had in getting opinions he would
change his views. He said he favor
ed the plan and several of the other
members voiced their approval OF It
declaring Il was very essential step
for the greater efficiency Of the cp-
Grating machinery Of the city gov
ernmcnt.
The finance committees recomman-
dation was approved with Mr. Nc
Nabb alone voting against il and the
ordinance will be adopted at the
Council meeting tonight
