XIX K. VISITS ST. JOSEPH
CHURCH.

While Methodist services were be-
ing conducted by Rev. H. w. Cudd
at the Union Church on Sunday
night, last, IA members OF the order
of Ku Klux Khan, robed and hooded,
quietly entered the church, and,
marching down the aisle, presented
the minister with an envelope, and
then as quietly marched out Of the
church and vanished. The envelope
contained fifty dollars in cash and a
message of good cheer to the preach
er, in which they expressed them
selves as endorsing his work and
wishing him we'll wherever Confer
ence may determine to locate him
next year, whether it be here or
elsewhere. This is the second visit
Rev. Cudd has received from the ku
Klux Khan within the last thirty
days, the first occurring at Newell
ton on October 9th, during the
process of a revival meeting, when
a like sum was presented him with
similar message of good will, in which
the Khan expressed themselves as
favoring all things that make TO,
good citizenship and good govern
ment and good fellowship between
man and man, and above all-Ameri
ca first!
With these as klansmen allege a!

is founded it is hard to understand

article which recites that the Invisi
BILE Empire is absorbing the duties
of the courts of justice, in Louis

To the HonI. N. NJ. Calhoun, Judge

Court of louisiana:
We, the Grand Jury, empanelled
at this October term of your Hon

result of our labors.
We continued our Investigations
as to crime and violations of law,
as directed by you, and remained in

a partial report at that time and re-
questing of you leave of absence

to our attention, ss well as I'M

We have examined about $50
witnesses from various parts of the
parish; found true bills for murder,
manslaughter and embezzlement and
sale of intoxicating Liquor wherever
the evidence justified.
In the matter of making and sell
ing of intoxicating liquor we have
diligently investigated, and spent
many hours endeavoring to secure
evidence whereby indictments could
be made against the "higher ups"
who, from various sources Of infor-
nation secured by US, are distribut-
ing "moonshine" to bootleggers in
the parish, and by what appears
to be a bond of secrecy enable
themselves to be kept in the back.
ground, and their connection with
the making or selling Of liquor diff
ficult for investigators to detect.
The making, selling and drinking
of "moonshine," such as is being
made, is a menace to all of the
people and is reaching serious pro
portions, and to our mind, unles!
checked now, will do great harm
However, we respectfully beg to cal

DEPENDING ON AMERICA.

Washington-Upon the quick char
ity of America largely depends the
fate of million Christians driven
from Asia Minor by Turkish military
success, it is declared at National
of the American Red
Cross. Greece either will be a sep
ulchre or a place Of rebirth for these
stricken people, whose desperate
plight is further depicted in a cable
gram received by the Red Cross from
Vice Chairman A. Ross Hill who is
directing relief work from Athens.
King George, of Greece, through
DIR. Hill, sent thanks to the Red Cross
for its aid and expressed the appre-
citation of his nation to the American
people. The Red Cross is rapidly
perfecting its organization in Greece,
said DR.. Hills message, which went
on to state:
Hundreds of thousands Of refu-
gees are filling the Greek cities and
islands. These consist largely of
mothers with children who, with old
people, are sole remnants of once
flourishing populations driven into
sea by the Turks. These miserable
women, cold, hungry, despairing,
shelterless, walk the streets with
babies clinging to their skirts. In
many refugee centers women who
lost sons and husbands gaze from
leaden eyes, life over. Their little
children are only hostages for the
future of that element of Greek
people who first established them
selves in Asia Minor three Thousand
years ago.
"In many barracks children, ant
old people lie day and night, flie'
eating at sores on their bodies ant
faces, their future black.
"King George thanks the American
Red Cross for its help and extend
the appreciation Of his nation II
the American people.
Smallpox is spreading from on
concentration camp to another. Mean
while Greece is awaiting new flood
of refugees. The race is on between
American Red Cross supplies AM
these fresh shiploads Of people. Tn
Greek government has telegraphe'
its representatives in all countrie
asking the utmost help from ever

Ewool dealer, the spinner, the cloth
manufacturer, the clothing manu-
facturer and the retailer, after each

Moreover, the tariff taxes all
woods alike, regardless of quality or
cost, which will practically put an
embargo on the lower grade woods,
! and the wOrkingman and the aver
age farmer will have to be satisfied
with wool ubstitutes-cotton or
shoddy..
The wool tariff will not even pro-
tect the farmer, because only TO of
the farmers of this country grow any
wool. or those who do only small

as class will be taxed more for
their clothes that they will get in

be ample protection. 1t will cost

HAVE REAL PURPOSE IN LIFE
Others Of Equal Ability Find

There's no special secret about the
go-getter. He doesn't measure income
by hours. Time for him Is opportunity.
He never has enough OF 1t. Every
working hour is turned to account
It's no wonder he gets the respect OF
men and bank account. That's the
evidence that he's go-getter.
Most folks rejoice when big oppor-
tunlty opens for them. The gogetter
has feelings and aspirations just like
any other fellow only he never wastes
time wishing that ought TO be spent
In doing.
There's something inspiring about
yo-getting. youthful loiterer the
other day was leased into some real
work. The results were very crafty
ing. Speaking to his mother a little
later she said: Its fun to do things
isn't TT" It's the Joy OF doing that
makes the go-getter.
After you get going It's easy to at
tempt increasingly difficult tasks. Sue
