Salvagiing Ammunition.

The War Department is confront

of $500. 900. 900 worth of surplus
ammunition. The only possible way
to use it is to break it up, utilize the
metal in peaceful industries. and
transform the powder into some
other chemical compound for practi-
cal use. 1t is reported that Henry
Ford bought a great quantity Of sur
plus British cordite and turned 1t
into artificial leather for the up

for relieving the War Department Of
its difficulty and turning a lot of

If 1t is meet that an American

ably about as safe a man from the

ceeded to make a monkey-house OF

disgust. He is a Republican and not
a silly visionary who listens to

of American Diplomacy" speaking
OF proposals for the formation Of
leagues or alliances to end war, he
says:

The assurance of peace by means OF
a oncer OF nations, designed to
moderate or control the propensity
Of men in the mass to gain their
ends by violence, has stimulated the
speculation of philosophers and
baffled the skill Of statesmen since
the dawn of International relations.
THE general statement Of such a
design offers no difficulties; but the
definite formulation of a plan to
render the design effective would in

would be as unsafe to count upon a
ready unanimity Of sentiment and OF

CLOTHES AND CONSCIENCE
BOTH MISSING.

The municipal bathing beaches Of
Chicago were opened a week early
this year by Superintendent Burk-
hardt, on account of the extremely
warm weather. But he found it ne
cessary to draw up set Of regula-
tions controlling the costumes worn
by some Of the fair bathers.
Last year on opening the beaches
he announced that he would not make
any rules as to the clothes to be
worn, telling the women to "Let their
conscience be their guide"
However it was noticeable on the
opening this week that some of the
women did not have any more con-
science than they had clothes on, and
so strict regulation had to be
drawn up.
The Chicago requirements for her
mermaids are: 'Knickers to within
four inches above the knee, and
skirts to within two inches of the
bottom of the knickers, with one
quarter sleeves"

AUTO PRICES CUT AGAIN.
Author of Phrase ''The War Is Over,
So Are War Prices" Slices An
other Hunk OFF Prices Of All
Cars Manufactured by Him.

Several months ago, Henry Ford
startled the world with his statement
that "The war is over, so are war
prices" and proceeded to cut the
prices Of his cars back to peacetime
schedules. Undoubtedly, it was his
action which started the general re-
duction in every other line Of bust
ness. Now, within the present week,
he has lobbed off another chunk from
his price list and Fords Of every type
are back within reach of all.
He makes no apology for the sec
ond reduction in less than year, but
justifies it by saying the demand for
Ford cars is so heavy that he is able
to keep his factory going at full speed
ahead without reducing wages, so he
feels that he can make the cars toI
supply the trade at less than formerly
and the trade is entitled to the reduc-
tion. The formal announcement of
Leblanc & Broussard, local distri-
butors, with the revised prices, ap-
pears elsewhere in this issue.
At the rate that Fords are being
grabbed up by the citizens Of this
community, it will not be long until
the streets will be crowded with them,
for according to Mr.. Leblanc they
are selling from twenty to twenty
five cars each month, with the aver
age steadily rising. What it viii be
now that Henry Ford has sliced off
another good chunk from the price is
hard to foresee.

WILD BURRO HUNT.

Never heard of hunting wild Mexl
can burros in Louisiana, did you?
Well, such hunt took place re-
Gently in the wilds of Caddo Parish
a few miles from Shreveport.
1t happened this way.
Quite a herd of these little Mexi-
can Burros had grown up wild on the
pasture lands of a Mr.. Ratcliff in
Caddo Parish. The parish officials
found that the burros were spreading
the cattle tick pest throughout the
parish, and also they found that it
was impossible to catch the burros
to dip them in the cattle tick dipping
watts.
Every possible means was tried to
trap the burfos, but they were
thoroughly wild, and as fleet footed
as jack rabbits.
Finally, in desperation, the Police
Jury bought the burros from Mr.
Ratcliff for S. each, and a wild Mex
lean burro hunt was staged.
1t turned out to be an exciting
hunt, and afforded some pretty rifle
shooting before the "a little fellows
were all accounted for. But they are
now gone where the wood bine twin
eth in the burros' heaven of eternal
rest.

RELIGIOUS DIRECTORS
CAN'T SETTLE HERE.
American Legion Keeps
Out MenOniteS.

Louisiana cannot be made the re-
fuge for conscientious objectors'
who evaded the recent war on reli-
gious grounds.
This fact developed just lately with
the announcement by the leaders Of
the Mennonites that they will now
settle in Mexico instead of in this
state or in Mississippi.
Quite a large number of members
Of this religious sect who have been
living in Canada for several years,
had decided to sell out their holdings
there and purchase land in the South.
Both Louisiana and Mississippi
were considered by the scouts sent
down from the northern country, and
it looked for time as though this
state was to be selected Several
thousand settlers would have then
come in and bought up a vast tract
gion thought that any one who is too
religious to fight when the country
and all humanity is calling for as
slstance, would be too religious to
make good citizen for this state
50 the Legion got busy, and blocked
the enterprise both in this state and
in Mississippi.
The Mennonites, when blocked here
and in Mississippi, then turned their
attention to Florida, but they found
the American Legion of that state
again opposing them.
SO Mexico is to be the scene of
their colonization, but we do not
know how anybody who does not like|
fighting will enjoy life in the turbu-
lent Republic across the Rio Grande.
