IF THE BUSINESS MEN OF BOGALUSA REALLY
want to help put something which will be of great
benefit to the town well direct benefit to them
Selves they have time to lose in getting behind the
stock subscription for canning factory The business
have given it dkeWaTm support, several of them not
subscribing for any stock and others taking minimum
will be due to lack of cooperation among the business
men, and not because the business men cannot afford
to take few shares of stock
Those who have not taken stock have, and will con-
tnue to Offer excellent excuses when matter of fact
the real reason that most of them do not think the prop
oston will be profitable therefore they cannot be blamed
for not putting their money into proposition when they
doubt if it will make money.
The canning factory can be put over in one day if
the business of the city be shown that it is
thing that is badly needed something that will do the
city good The mistake which has been made is that
few publlc-spirited men have been selling stock in
the canning plant who little better posted what
such plant would those those to whom they were
trying to SELL AS result several thousand dollars worth
Of stock has been sold solely on the personality of the
hctors and their success splendid testimonial to their
popularity and if given time they will eventually sell
enough stock to secure the plant.
But why should all this work fall upon them and then
the delay? Bogausa is to have canning factory let's
get it and start it to work. and then get busy some
thing ese This be done in one evening unless The
Enterprise is mistaken in the business of the city
One hundred business and professional men can sub
scribe for $4,000 worth of stock and not seriously ine
their bank accounts There way to do this and do
quickly. Let the Chamber of Commerce get pledges
from the business and professional men of Bogausa that
they will attend meeting at which the expert who to
'Operae the plant will tell them what he do and how
it will pay Let Mayor Sullivan tell what it means to the
business of Bogausa and If at the conclusion of these
talks they have convinced the business that the prop
Oson will be success, the stock be sold at this
meeting.
The canning factory is dragging along too slowly to
suit The Enterprise. Immediate action by Mayor Sulvan
and President Taley, of the Chamber of Commerce will
either cnch the plant show the wisdom of dropping it.
Let's have action!

Sire" said the drummer boy, Il have never learned
to beat retreat but can beat march thatWi make the
dead arise and fight He received permission from the
General to beat march, into which he threw his very SOUL
The tired weary almost defeated soldiers caught the in
spraton of the CHARGE and with energy and quick
ened fire of body and spirit rushed once to the battle
and won great victory
The people of this country feel that they have been
almost defeated; Encouragement fills their minds and

limit of their endurance They have been beating

that inspiration WHICH NapOleOns soldiers felt at the
stirring music brought forth by the ndomtable drummer
boy who knew not how to beat a retreat.
Every man who is pessmistic who permits the dis
couragements of the hour to dominate him, is beating
retreat He is not only beating retreat for his bust

comes in touch. The time has to beat march, to

And many of them are retT grp
to be found always smiling and polits
but The Enterprise has discovered
the best natured man in Bogalusa sni
without question, he is entitle 70 The
state honor as well. Not less hm
100 times a day some citizens tel
him how he ought to do his woiE
He liste q, takes the advice and ssg
but little; then some one gets afta
him for not finishing something Be
started-without knowing the reason
of the delay. He stands for that. 4
number of people were laughing BE-
cause a couple of his trucks got stuss
on Avenue B; others were amused
because he did not unload the truck
and some would have thought he did
wrong if he did. Anyway, be ga
the trucks out without unloading and
came up smiling
We could give a column Of sug
gestions and kicks that he has r.
eeived, all of which would be more
or less amusing, yet not a single tine
has he shown any signs of losing as
temper. The Enterprise therefor
proclaims Fl. E. Willis, city enginsa
who is building the streets, the ba
uatured man in the city. If you hags
a kick or crouch of any kind, regard
less of whether it is about the streets
that are being built, "tell it to Willis

100000 CHILDREN
FACING STARVATION
Vast Relief Effort Launched By
Eight Leading American Organ
izatiOns TO Avert Tragedy.

The most spontaneous as well as the
largest consolidation OF effort in the
history of American relief and charita-
bic organizations has grown out Of the
disaster which threatens $500, 900
European children this winter. 70 the
headquarters of every agency that dis
penses American mercy overseas has
come one steady cry for months past /;
the children, most helpless and blame
less sufferers in the track of war, will
perish by the thousands before next
harvest unless America saves them /
When DR.. Livingston Farrand, chair
man Of the Central Committee Of the
American Red Cross, returned from a
recent trip abroad, his report throbbed
with the need Of the children. From
the feeding-stations of the American
Relief Administration throughout east
ern and central Europe came letters,
cables, pleas Of every sort. The Pro
itestant churches sent investigators
into after-war conditions and every
report breathed the impending tragedy
of starving and diseased children.
Protestant, Catholic and Jewish, the
child life of Europe is threatened with
heartrending Misery
The European ReAef Council, with
Herbert Hoover as chairman and the
whole power of American charitable
thought and effort behind it, has been
formed. It consists Of Edgar Rick
ard, representing the American Relief
Administration Dr. Livingston Far
rand, representing the American Red
Cross; Felix Warburg, representing
the Jewish Joint Distribution Commit
tee; Wilbur K. Thomas, representing
the American Friends Service Com
mittee; James A. Flaherty, represent
ing the Knights Of Columbus; DR.. C.
v. Hubbard, representing the Young
Mems Christian Association; Miss
Sarah S. Lyon, representing the Young
iWomen's Christian Association; Dr..
Arthur Brown, representing the Fed
eral Council Of Churches.
It is the purpose of the Council to
raise $33. 100000, in an appeal center
ing at the Christmas holidays, to the
end that the situation regarding child
life may be met In every town ard
community Of the nation, it is hoped,
local committees, representing all the
agencies will be formed
to secure the vitality necessary funds.
OF the amount sought, 100000 win
be used for basic food For every one
Of these American dollars the local
and communities aided
will furnish two dollars, in the form
Of transportation, labor, guards, cIeri-
cal help, cash contributions and such
food supplies as are locally Obtainable.
No children receive the free food ex-
cept after medical tests showing them
to be seriously under-nourished. The
$10,D0O,O00 of the fund is
just as urgently needed for 1Rredical
service to the children.
