as pleasing to our community at

tocnes where everybody knows,
Lays Ice Cream is pure as we'll
as good.

A Merited Rebuke.

laughed and talked. thruout the
performances, regardless of the
performers and those who paid
the price to enjoy the entertain

When the Chicago Symphony
Orchestra was there the leader
was so incenscd at the rudeness
displayed. that he cut short his
program and did not hesitate to
express his opinion about the
cultured Southerners.
Well never did we think that a
Natchitoches audience would be
guilty of similar behavior. but
such was the case last Thursday
night, when during a splendid

Anti-Malaria Campaign

The article under that caption
last week must have struck re-
sponsive chord, as the editor has
been urged by letter, phone and
word of mouth not to ''let up''
until something definite was done
1t might not be out of place to
state, that we have been trying to
get the authorities to take up this
mosquito fight for the past few
weeks. but other important matters
occupied their attention and they
have delayed, until it would be too
late if put off much longer.
Saturday, the editor received a
communication from DR.. Bowling
stating that the State Board of
Health had appropriated funds for
general health work in the parishes
on a cooperative basis, the work
planned as q demonstration is to
be based on the following budget:
Receipts-from the parish, one
half, $4,000; from State Board of
Health, one fourth, $500; from
the International Health Board,
one fourth, $2.5O0-$10,000. o
When public sentiment an d
available funds render possible
other activities or more intensive
work on any special line, addition
al personnel can be added at the
discretion of the parish health Of
6cials in the light of local condi-
tions and needs.
Demonstration malaria control
campaigns will be conducted on
similar basis with supervision
furnished by the United States
| public health service and inter.
national health board, and this is
| what Natchitoches needs and should
take up at once. Our city and
parish are unusually fortunate IN,
rarely if ever, having the usual
epidemics of communicable dis.
eases, but she had enough malaria
last season to make our people
take action at once to prevent a
return and, no doubt, will appre
ciate the fact that money spent for
an anti-malaria campaign would
be q profitable inyestmenJ and not
an expense.
The Enterprise again urges the
authorities to get in touch, at once,
with the State Board of Health
who solicit correspondence from
the parish and city officials and
will assist with the Anti Malaria
Campaign. which proved SO sue
|cessful last year in Baton Rouge,
Monroe, Bastrop and elsewhere.
Now is the accepted time.

Night Service at Postoffice

For the past few years, the citi-
zens Of Natchitoches have tried. to
get Uncle Sam arrange for night
service at the post Office so that
there wouldn't be such conges.
ton of mail in the morning which,
since the main line of the T. & P.
runs thru here (the trains that
bring the principal mails, meet
here at 9:15 p. m.,) has doubled
this inconvenience for the business
people.
Efforts were renewed some
months ago, and upon the occa-
sion of his last visit home, Con-
gresham Aswell promised that he
would do all in his power to have
the post Office department send an
official here to see conditions for
himself, which he succeeded in
doing, aud in due time the inspec-
tor arrived.
The Chamber of Commerce as.
sisted in working out schedule
to simplify matters, and as re-
suit. q night clerk has been installed
BY the government who will wait
as late as midnight for belated
mails, and all that Nos. 20 and %
bring will be distributed immedi-
ately upon arrival. Another con-
venience for the public, will be
the change of hour for putting up
the mail for the Cannonbali or No.
IS which passes thru at 6:40a. m.
which will be done after the night
mail is distributed, which means
any time after 1890 p. n.
All things come to him who
waits. .Selah!

In loving memory Of my beloved
friend, Nell Mae Wilson, who passed
to the glorious life beyond the grave
Is, 1918.
What would ! give to clasp her hand,
Her dear face just to see,
Her loving smile, her welcome voice,
That meant SO much to me.
Some say that I forget her
When they sometimes see mo
smile,
But they know not Of the sorrow
That the smile hides all the while.
