Everything is in readiness for the
opening event of Community Serv-
Ice Program. which is a celebration
by the entire city of Flag Day. June
14th.
For years the Elks Lodge has been
observing this day annually, in THEN
hall, and the public was always in
vited to attend, but never more than
a hundred people attended.
Now, with all organizations parti-
cipating, it is expected that several
hundred people will be present at the
ceremonies that have been prepared.
Community Service Executive Com
mittee chose Mr.. A. Is. Murray,
Mr.. r. V. St. Dizier and Mrs. d.
A. Dimitry to act with the Elks
Committee, made up of Messrs. ]
E. Verret, C. M Bahon, Luke Ber.
trand and VIM. Baumann. This Joint
committee met on Monday and ar
ranged the detailed program.
The celebration will be held on St.
Peters College Base Ball grounds.
A temporary platform will be built
just in front of the large grand
stand, so that several hundred per-
sons will be able to find seats and
have good view of everything.
The Elks will go through with
their regular ritualistic work, en-
bellished to suit the occasion. They
will be assisted by twelve girls drap-
ed in flags, who will take part in
building the Liberty Bell of flowers
in the flag colors. This should be
very beautiful and impressive scene.
The Elks themselves will meet nj
their hall at 7 p M. Wednesday,
and march to the scene of the pro-
gram accompanied by the city band.
The band will liven up the entertain
ment by rendering several selections
OF paCflOtlc airs, ana Two or three
songs will probably be sung by the
entire audience lead by the band.
A fagpole is being erected on the
grounds from which will be display
ed large American flag. At the
close of the program, which con-
tains several numbers not mentioned
here, the American Legion and Boy
Scouts will join in paying military
tribute to Old Glory in true Army
style.
In true Community Service style,
every organization is urged to have
all of it's members out in full force

TRINITY SUNDAY AT THE EPIS,
COPAL CHURCH.

There will be the regular services
at the Episcopal Church this coming
Sunday appropriate for Trinity Sun
day.
Trinity Sunday is considered, in
sequence, of the Christian Year, next
to Christmas, Easter, and Whitsun-
day. AS its name, of course, signi-
fies it celebrates the great doctrine
of the Trinity, that is: Three per-
sons in one God and one God in
three persons without any difference
in equality whatsoever.
The service will be sung to the
setting of Cruickshank with appro-
pirate hymns for the great festival.
The special intention Of the Holy
Sacrifice will be that the firm be-
lief in the doctrine of the Trinity
may give US that faith in God that
will enable US to pass all the temp
tations of the world.
The service will be at II A. M.
and all are most cordially invited to
attend same.

LOBBYING AT CAPITAL.

Mr.. A. B. Murray has spent most
of the week in Baton Rouge, looking
after legislative measures pertaining
to the State Realty Board, of which
he is President. An effort is being
made by some to abolish the Realty
Board, which would open that bust
ness up again to the numerous un-
reliable operators who formerly made
a transction in real estate as haz-
ard as trip in an airship. We hope
that Mr.. Murray and his fellow
members of the Board will be able
to defeat any measure aimed against
it.

No. 3 is a local newspaper man,

refers to his notebook, spells out both

No. is Albert Willard, superin-
tendent at Greystone. He is merely
the guardian angel.
No one of the opposing faction has
seen the statue. But this faction re-
calls certain historic remark OF one

to enter the select class the circus

theory that the statue already had
entered the road ballast category, hav
ing been tossed in by the owner OF

LAWYER KILLED HIS
WIFE FOR MONEY
CONVICTED OF MURDER TO
COLLECT INSURANCE. BAND
1T THEORY FAILED.

Omar R. Woods, lawyer, convicted
Of numbering his wife, Marietta
Woods, in their apartment in Salt
Lake City, Utah, has selected shooting
as the means by which his life will be
snuffed out behind the walls OF the
state prison on Friday, Sept. LIST. He
was accused of having killed his wife
to collect $4,000 life insurance she
carried.
When hremen responded to an
alarm they found on bed in Woods
home the charred body of woman,
with hands and feet tied, gag fasten-
ed about her mouth, and her jaw bro
ken. The room was filled with smoke
and flames, caused by burning benzine
which had been sprinkled over the
woman's body.
Blamed Two Bandits.
Woods had stumbled from the house
Just before the firemen arrived, and
told a story of being attacked by two
robbers. He said he was tied to the
bath tub, after which the men attack
ed and bound his wife, then ransack-
ed the home and set it on fire. He said
he managed to escape but was driven
back by the flames before he could
find his wife
The couple had one daughter, 10
wears old. who stuck by her father
throughout his trial. Whether she will
be able to collect on the life insurance
policies of her mother is matter OF
conjecture, since the absence of smoke
in the lungs indicated that Mrs.
Woods was murdered and did not
meet death in a fire, and since it is
contended that Woods made misrepre-
sensations in obtaining the policies.
The policies provided for double in
demnity in case OF death by fire.
Woods remained unmoved throughout
his trial and when he was sentenced
to die he selected shooting as the
easiest way"
