MAYOR SULLIVAN RETURNS

M ayor w. H. Sullivan has Just re-
turned from trip North. While
away he visited st. GATHERINGS, On-
tario, the place of his birth, where
they were having q celebration Of
"Old Boys and Old Girls Week"
He says that he met many Of the
men and women that he knew as boys
and girls. He also met Mr.. George
Wilson. a contractor and builder,
with whom he worked for four years
learning the carpenter trade. and
saw the original time book with his
name on it as Will Sullivan, carpen-
ter apprentice, at fifty cents a day.
Mr.. Sullivan reports business con-
ditions throughout the North inn
proving very fast and looks as though
in the next few months will be very
much better than they are at pres
ent and the year of 1922 will be q
great business year. particularly in
the building line, which, Of course,
uses a very large amount Of lumber.

Reforestadon is the Only Salvation

we'll as governmental agencies, will
meet the issue.
One Of the largest manufacturers
Of wood products announces that it
has now permanently established it
self in Louisiana. It viii never again
cut out the last of its timber and
pull up stakes in the old way to fol-
low the ever-receding forest, because
through REPRESENTATION its own supply
is to be made inexhaustible. In COM
mon with most other lumber manu-
facturers, the management Of this
company once look askance on the
idea Of demonstration. Their hope
Yves to build up, co-ineident with the
lumber industry, great agricultural
center based on the cut-over lands,
which, when the mill had done its
work, was to give profitable Occupa-
ton to all.
After. several years Of experiment
ing, however, it was evident that the
returns were hardly sufficient to
form the basis Of industrial perma-
nency. IL was then that the natural
Of certain cut-Over sections

policy was the result. Now fine

There is hardly a newspaper or
magazine in the country that has not
at some time or other in the last year
or SO proclaimed the rapid depletion
of our timber resources. We are told
that if the present rate of consump-
ton continues without the creation,
through Representation, Of vast new
sources of supply, within the lifetime
of a child born today we will have
only treeless wastes to contemplate,
the lumber and paper industries viii
be dead, and wood the most high
priced Of all building materials. The
remedy is there, writes Arthur New
ton Pack in the American Forestry
Magazine of Washington, but who is
willing to apply it?
Federal and State governments can
and win expend great sums of money
for example and encouragement; pri-
vate individuals may undertake lesser
projects; but every year our wood
using industries continue to denude
an acreage about as large as. the state
Of Massachusetts,, and the situation
can be but little improved. Ulti-
mately it must be those great indus

awakened consciousness of the emer-

FRANKLINTON MAY
BECOME OIL TOWN

Franklinton is in furry Of ex-
citement over the report that several
large oil corporations are to begin
drilling for oil on the outskirts of the
town. More than $4,000 acres are
said to have been leased recently and
oil operators and lease manipulators
are floeking to the town to inspect
the property.
Mrs, WI. A. Edwards, on whose
lard oil IS said to have been discov-
cred about SIX years ago, was in New
Orleans Saturday. She said that
capitalists had recently be-
come interested in the township and
that reports were that drilling is to
begin soon.
The search for oil in Franklinton
began about ten years ago when
Fred NJ. Edwards, son of Mrs. Ed
wards, interested q number of men
and induced them to drill. About six
years ago well on the Edwards
property, which was said to have in
dieated oil deposits, was capped and
work suspended. It is said that the
recent revival of the oil question was
due to the efforts Of Edwards and
that number Of big companies have
experts on the land and are ready to
drill If reports are favorable.

FIRE CHIEF ASKS
CITIZENS TO CLEAR
STREETS FOR TRUCKS

The carelessness Of the automo-
bile and truck drivers of BOgalusa
win cause an accident here some day
that viii not only cost the lives of a
number of citizens, but also the loss
of several thousand dollars in city
property" said Fire Chief Sherman,
insa conversation with a representa-
tive of the Enterprise Monday. "The
average driver Of BOgalusa, and by
this don't mean only automobile
drivers, pays little or NO attention to
th traffic ordinance, which pro-
vices for every vehicle on the streets
at the time the fire whistle blows, to
park TO the side of the road until
after the fire trucks pass.
Several times in the past couple
of months accidents have been mar
rowly averted when trucks and
wagons moving on narrow streets
seemed to be under the impression
that the fire trucks, like ordinary
vehicles, would divide the road, and
was seemingly unaware of the rate Of
speed that the trucks are forced to
move, were angered when they mar
roWiy escaped being hit.
Gust last week." said Chief Sher-
man, ga farmer with his team and
wagon blocked one of the narrowest
streets of the city, and in spite of the
shouts of the men aboard the fire
truck, took his time about turning out
of the way, and seemed surprised
when the truck with one wheel in
a gutter swept by him and narrowly
missed upsetting his wagon.
"A $4,000 truck and the lives of
four or five firemen are too much to
risk on the carelessness of some
vehicle driver, who CARES so little for
his life or that of his, fellow citizens
that he will deliberately violate one
Of the most important regulations Of
the traffic law, and / am taking this
means to make direct appeal to the
citizens Of Bogalusa to assist US
whenever they hear the alarm of the
approaching fire trucks by parking to
the side of the road and allowing
them to pass"
