At the special meeting of the
Chamber Of Commerce held at the
City Hall Saturday afternoon, a COM
nittee composed of DR.. j. H. Slaugh-
ter, J. B. Lindsey, J. A. Spekenhier
and P. w. Lindsey was appointed
appointed to use any plan or plans
to secure a canning factory for Bo-
galusa.
If Bogalusa citizens want a can
ming factory they can get one and
have it in operation in 80 days, and
also secure one of the best managers
in the South. A site will be donated
by the Great Southern Lumber Com
pany. DR.. J. H. Slaughter, of the
BOgalusa Ice Company, announced he
would supply steam at cost for such
a plant.
The committee expects to make a
report in a few days.
At the meeting it was announced
that enough farmers had pledged
sweet potato acreage to supply the
demands of the local plant.
Stringless beans, Strawberries and
other fruits and vegetables could be
handled by the local plant.

M. PONZI MISSED
GREAT THING HERE

IL the figures given the committed
I of the Chamber of Commerce, com
posed Of DR.. J. II. Slaughter, Major
]. H. Friend and J. K. johnson, who
made a tour of the Florida Parishes
where distillation plants are in oper-
alton, are correct, and there is no
reason to doubt that there are, Ponzi
missed a great opportunity, and like
wise Bogalusa, in letting the oppor-
tunity go by.
The plants visited are those which
make turpentine, pine oil and tar
from pine knots and stumps from
cut-over land. One plant visited by
the committee cost $4,000 to erect.
The cost of operation was less than
500 a day and their gross income
per day was in excess Of $500, or a
profit of over S40O per day on an
investment of $4,000. According to
these same figures, plant of this
size would make a net profit of over
$4,000 in year, which would
make make the owner meet the in
come tax man each year with a
crouch.
The Chamber of Commerce is GO
ing to investigate the matter fur
Their and if it is found that a plant
can be operated and show even a less
profit, modern refinery as well as
a large number of retorts will be
built here.
The Chamber of Commerce is anx-
ious to help the farmers and the dis
tillation plant appealed to the body
on account of being a great help to
the farmer in clearing his land of.
stumps and pine knots, the products
of which would find a brisk local
market, but when the great profit
from the business was shown it was
decided to investigate further.
Those who are interested in the
proposition can secure further de-
tails from P. w. Lindsey, secretary
of the Chamber of Commerce.

EACH SCHOOL IN
CITY TO GIVE PLAY

The work in the schools has been
excellent, Notwithstanding the cpl
demic of measures, etc. The enroll
ment at Central School in February
was 387 and the attendance was
357.8. This is the best record ever
made in the school and the principal
and children are very proud of it.
Each school in the city is prepar-
ing to give an entertainment to raise
funds to purchase books for the IL
brary. The first entertainment was
given at the Pleasant Hill school on
last Friday highland the neat lit
tie sum Of SIS was made. The chill
dren deserve much credit for the adj
mirable manner in which they acquit-
ted themselves,
The Mother Goose play by the
primary grades was very good. One
felt as though they were in Mother
Goose Land hearing the little verses
sung by the tots. The songs-play
and the minstrel were especially good
all rendered their parts splendidly.
The principal, Mrs. Evelyn Polk, and
her able faculty are to be congratu-
lated on the success of the entertain
ment.
The little Tom Thumb Wedding
will be staged at the Garden TheatIsa
on the evening of April 30. Don't
forget the date-for this promises to
be one Of the most unique entertain
ments given in BOgalusa. The we'd
ding party will be announced next
week. Many prominent guests will
be here to attend this affair. Among
those expected are President and Mrs.
Wilson, Mutt and Jeff, Maggie and
Jiggs, Charlie Chaplin and others.
The State Teachers Association
meets in Alexandria on the 7th, 9th
and 9th of April. This association
is supported by the teachers of the
state, so it is with much pride that
the Bogalusa teachers found that
they had "gone over the top" 100 per
cent, by the fifty-two teachers pay
ing their dues. We are also inter
ested in announcing that Supt. F. c.
Ratliff will be a candidate for presi-
dent of the association. The election
takes place at the Alexandria meet
ing.
The school will announce the dates
of their entertainments later and the
patrons of the schools will have a
great treat in store for them, and the
teachers will be glad for them to
come out and get acquainted with
the, teachers and see how well the
children perform.

to clinch the National League pennaut
by defeating the Boston Braves at the
Christy Mathewson testimonial game
at the Polo Grounds tomorrow. J.,

with a defeat by Pittsburgh, will make

Has Hsd Interesting Career.


The career of McGraw stands out
as one of the most interesting in the
annals of the national sport.
McGraw was born at TruXton, n.
V, on April 7. 1873. He played his
first professional game shortly after
he discarded short trousers. He made
such reputation around his home
town as a hard hitter ands skillful
fielder that he was recommended to
the Olean team, then in the New York
State League, and in the spring of
1890 signed his first base ball con-
tract. n
McGraw says he nevers will forget
the first game he played with Olean.
Although only about zoo fans at
at any time in his life. In describ-
ing his first game the popular leader
of the Giants said:
THAT first game was one of the
greatest events in my life and / will
remember it always. / was confident
of making good until l went on the
field. Then / was bewildered; it seem
ed that there were enough persons in
the stands to populate the state OF
New Yorn. 1 hoped that the batter
would not hit the ball to me.
When a grounder did come my
way l felt as though I was rooted to
the turf. I couldn't move. Finally
it seemed like an age to me, 1 got
started and picked the ball up in my
bare hand, but threw it over the frs,
baseman's head, in my haste to beat
the runner"
The error lost the game for Nc.
Graw's team, but it did not discourage
him. McGraw got $50 a month fol-
playing with Olean.
Joins Orioles in 1891.
After one year with Olean he wen,
to the Cedar Rapids club, where the
remuneration was slightly better
While with the Iowa team there was
a remarkable change for the better in
his playing. He performed at short.

NEW YORK. September 28.-Babe
Ruth In confined to bed Mt his hotel
here with an attack Of grippeA which
will prevent him from pla ying with
the New York team against the Ath-
letics at Philadelphia today, accord
ing to the New York Evening World
The heavy hitting Yankee is be-
lieved to have caught cold while mo-
toring with his wife in his favorite
roadster. Last night he complained
of chills and fever and his physician,
after summoning two other doctors,
ordered him to bed.
While fear was expressed that Ruth
might not be able to play ball Tor
several days. it was said at headquar-
tiers of the American League clup
that he would be back in the line
up tomorrow.
The possibility that he might be un-
able to participate In the coming
world series was ridiculed.
Ruth's illness became known when
he failed to join Manager Hugslns
and his teammates at II O'Clock u
board the train for Philadelphia:
Mrs. Ruth, at her apartment IN the
Hotel NAnsonia. confirmed the fact
that her husband was suffering from
an attack of grip. but said she eX-
pected he would be at the plate TO-
morrow for the second game Of the
Yankees series with the Philadel-
phia Americans. She added that Hape
was suffering from nervous troubles.

OF late years there has been a
scarcity of star outfielders among
the recruits. There have been few
players of the Speaker. Carey and
Burns type to break into the majors.
1t so happens. however, that ths
four clubs now battling for the right
to meet in the big series are well
supplied with out6elders. Regard
less of what team wins. the outfield
positions will be well taken care of.
If Cleveland and Pittsburgh should
meet it will be Interesting to watch
the duel between Speaker and carey
If the Giants win. the veteran George
Burns will make it hot for. any op-
posing center fielder.
The Pittsburgh outfield stands out
prominently. Against left-handed
pitching, it is B:igbee. Carey and
Whitted. With a Highlander op-
posing. Dave Robertson, former star
of the Giants and the Cubs. plays
right field in place of Whitted. There
is an outf1eld that is strong in all
departments of the game. 1t can hit
savagely. field brilliantly, run the
bases well and throw better than the
average. The Pirate outfield need not
be considered second to any of them.
Speaker Leads All.
Iris Speaker. despite his years of
service. looms up as the greatest
of all fielders. Perhaps iris has
slowed up little. but it is hardly
noticeable. In only one respect does
he play his position a Bit different
Iy from the way he did when in his
prime Then Speaker seemed to
play almost back of second base for
the ordinary hitter. Because of the
short field he was able to play he
got many Texas leaguers that would
have ordinarily fallen safe. Like
wise. it seemed impossible for the
ordinary batter to get ball over his
head. HE could go back almost a
mile for them
Speaker no longer plays an ex-
tremely short field. Possibly it is
because he realizes he cannot go
back as fast for a ball Is he once
did. He seems to be playing so feet
deeper than ir the old days. His
ability to come in has not dimin-
ished in any way, SO that he seems
to have equaIized conditions by his
new style of play. Speaker hits
them as viciously as ever.
Iris Shifts OutfleId.
Because of his supply of substi-
tutes, Speaker uses shift outfield.
This practice of shifting the field
