ST, TAMMANY LUTHERANS VISIT
BOGALUSA.

Programs have been printed and
all arrangements made by Bogalusa
Lutherans to entertain their breth-
rem from St. Tammany parish. In
the meanwhile trucks and cars from
Abita Springs, Covington, Vaudeville
and Goodbee are being chartered to
meet at the Abita Springs Church.
Rev. o. w. Luecke, pastor, to leave
at 8 o'clock for Bogalusa, where they
will spend the day.
Features of the day are to be the
sermon by Rev. M. W. H. Hollis, of
New Orleans, delivered in the Y. NJ.
c. A. auditorium at 1880 a. m, and
the address by Rev. E. w. Kuss, of
New Orleans, delivered in the City
Park at 2 p. m. Laymen of the
Lutheran Church will also speak III
the afternoon.
All are reported to be bringing
their own lunch, prepared to eat pic
mic fashion, while the ladies Of Boga-
lusa will serve coffee and incidentals.
Genera hopes and invitations have
passed from mouth to mouth, to the
effect that the Bogalusa public viii
visit especially at the afternoon pro-
gram, beginning at 2 o'clock. The
Lutherans in this part Of Dixie COM
plain of often being embarrassed, BY
being called on to explain whence
they came, what they teach, etc.
Many people of Bogalusa seem never
to have heard of the Luthern church.
Then, too, there are many Lutherans
residing in the city who do not know
that there is a progressive, well-or-
ganized local congregation of their
own faith.
For all these reasons it is claimed
special effort will be made this corr
ing Sunday to put the Lutheran
church also on the religious map OF
Bogalusa.

Outlines His Plans in Striking Interview---Ap-
peals to Patriotism of Every American as
Reason to Obey Volstead Act

Is nothing to it. This talk of dry laws
disturbing peoples personal liberty is about
as sound as the talk of fiends who would
abolish laws again homicide.
"All laws restrict our personal liberty
in some degree. The dope fiend is inter
fered with by the narcotic laws, because
his personal habits are restricted. The
speed maniac finds that the traffic laws re-
strict him. But these laws do not bother
that man who values community good more
than he does his self-indulgence. Our laws
in this republic are more than line fences
marking the boundary of liberty and
license"
The charge of the vets that prohibition
seized upon eagerly.
"They say that we drys put the dry
law over while the boys were fighting
overseas" he went on. Prohibition was
practically an accomplished fact before a
single American soldier left America for
France. My record shows that out of all
the 2,540 counties in the United States there
were only 305 that had not declared them
selves dry. To say that the American SOL
diers who went overseas were untouched
by this great movement is scarcely COM
pliment to their intelligence"
Mr.. Haynes, Strengthening up in his big
chair and with much fervor, exclaimed
that the vets had reached the end of their
rope when they seized upon the American
soldiers service abroad for propaganda
purposes in opposing enforcement.
"To say that the soldiers who were in
France would have voted with the very men
who were opposing prohibition at the same
time they were opposing Americas
struggle with Germany does not pay a
fitting tribute to those men whose exploits
are among the most illustrious in the an
nails of the war;" Mr.. Haynes said

The Best Dressed Men

THERE are many Americans who fol-
low English fashions for men in their
desire to be included among the best
dressed men. The prize of approval for good
dressing falls between Britain and the United
States in the opinion of the majority
But along comes an expert Sir Woodman
Burridge, managing director of Harrods in
London. who says that the best dressed ma
ton is the Argentine Republic. Sir Wood
man excludes the poems and cowboys, but
speaks of the sophisticated group when he
writes as follows:
save for white duck suits and light col
ored pajamas in which to lounge during the
day, their clothes are like ours or those Of
France, If superior to both in style and
decorum.
mo Argentine woman, for example would
dream of appearing in mixed company clad
in a bathing dress, such as one sees in
France or the United States, or, for that
matter. at Brighton.
"The men must wear swimming suits with
half sleeves and trunks over the knees; and
they may not appear in knitted costumes
where there is mixed bathing.
"They regard in the same spirit any ex-
travagance of pattern or color. and here the
national custom abets their natural reti-
cence, long spells of fun mourning being de-
creed even for third cousins.

"As for the men, they too dress better than
the Englshman or the American. An Ar
gentine cutter who lately visited London
was quite distressed by the gaucherie OF
London suits.
"You would never see an Argentine man
in a check suit. You would never see him
wearing a green tie with blue socks He Is
neat, and he is not loud; he has ceased to be
vulgar. 1t is a lesson which older nations
have yet to learn"

Mr.. Haynes was asked If he had not
noted that American prohibition was being
made the subject for jest in many of the
countries of Europe. He answered this by
citing the statement of high official of the
Austrian Government that Germany and
Austria would have won the war IL the
Central Powers had invoked total absti-
nence.
1T is interesting to see how the leading
minds in the countries of the enemy in the
late war view the putting over of war
time prohibition" he added.
Mr.. Haynes seemed well aware of the SEN
timent for repeal of the dry laws He
charged that most of this sentiment comes
from behind the smoke screen of patriot
ism," and is one of the most "specious'
attacks against dry law success.
Law Will Be Easier
To Enforce Very Shortly
1--WE constantly hear the charge that the
Volstead law is impracticable and impossi-
bel of enforcement" he said. "We do not
deny that at this time it is difficult to
less so as time goes on. We have gone
too far in the right direction to think of
nullifying the prohibition laws
There would be no cure for the evils
arising from the liquor traffic by repeating
the prohibitory laws You would merely
set precedent and make it more easy to
nullify any law that may be rendered diff
ficult of enforcement through prejudice
OF un-American bias.
During my term of Office as chief ad-
ministrator of the national liquor laws l
hope to bring about better respect for the
law. To enforce the Volstead law and
make the Eighteenth Amendment operative
will give all law an added weight Of au-
thority in the public mind"

Dry Republican for Years
And Prominent in Church

Mr.. Haynes has been a dry Republican
for many years AS the owner of Hills
boros leading newspaper, he has been at the
forefront in all campaigns to keep 1t

years OF the Miami Military Institute at

teen years ago to Miss Katherine Mason

in 1908, as the publisher Of the Hillsboro
Dispatch, Mr.. Haynes made success Of
that project, and then gradually became
active in Republican politics. He figured

been strong Harding supporter in all Of
the Harding campaigns. He attended the
Chicago convention and helped to bring
about Harding's nomination In the cam
paign OF 1912 he was an ardent supporter OF
