Whether you would call it a ban
quet, a dance, a supper or an all
round good Tina cannot be decided
upon until the event Is over, but su9-
flee to say that the person who misses
the big event at the Armory Saturday
night is going to overlook what prone
ises to be one Of the most enjoyable
events held in Bogalusa in years.
1t all came about through the ef-
forts Of DR.. Slaughter, chairman Of
the Elks' Christmas Baskets for the
Poor Committee. The fund was short
about $500, so Dr. Slaughter, Max
Wilson, Charles Percy, j. E. Guidry
and John Christian, all members Of
the local lodge Of Ells, went sto the
state hunting camp and bagged S75
wild ducks and brought them to Boz
galusa.
On Monday night the Christmas
Fund Committee decided to defray
the expenses of the duck supper so
that every dollar taken in would 20
to the Christmas Fund.
Everything that goes with duck
supper will be served. Blanchard's

man who cannot 90 down there and
bag the limit every day ought to

IN after it.'
Mr.. Wilson was equally well
pleased with the club and accommo-
dations. He said the club will &C
.commodate about thirty guests, that
the rooms are clean, the beds COM
Portable and the food alone was
worth the prices charged. He also
said the club furnished a guide who
could call ducks So it would really
make an ordinary duck ashamed of

really a hunters paradise.
Any citizen of Louisiana who has
hunters license is at liberty to
