Local Shriners Trying to
Secure Shrine CeremOnial


Arrangements are being made by
the Shriners' Club of Bogalusa, of
which W. C. Flanders is president, to
have the Shrine Ceremonial for
Louisiana held here in March.
In the event that Bogalusa secures
the honor it is estimated that nearly
five hundred visitors will come to the
city to participate in the ceremonial.
Among the uniformed bodies who will
come is the 50-piece Shrine Band and
the drill team of New Orleans, and
it is expected a mounted guard will
attend.
It is necessary to have at least fif-
teen candidates for the Shrine before
the ceremonial will be held here. 1t
is believed that Bogalusa will be able
to furnish twenty candidates without
trouble. Thirty others will be brought
from other lodges Of the state to
take the degree.
The local lodge of Mason's is re-
ported to be one Of the strongest in
the state, with a membership of over
two hundred, about sixty Of whom
are Shriners. In case Bogalusa is
fortunate enough to be chosen for
the ceremonial the services will be
held in the Armory on Avenue B.
One of the features Of the visit will
be the big parade. in which the band
and the various drill teams and the
great crowd Of visitors will take part.

STEEL FOR
PEARL RIVER BRIDGE

The steel Orders for the Pearl
river bridge are being hauled from
the railroad to the banks of the river
this week. While the transfer of the
material is necessarily slow, B. H.
Buck, the advisory engineer, stated
Tuesday that he believed work on
the erection of the steel drawbridge
would commence not later than to-
morrow. 1t is estimated it will take
from four to six weeks to complete
the steel construction and about two
weeks longer to connect up with the
lead-off on each side of the river and
inspect the bridge before turning it
over for dedication to the public.
With the completion of the bridge,
Bogalusa will undoubtedly become
the trading center for the formers
and villagers of both Louisiana and
Mississippi, since excellent gravelled
highways now connect this city with
practically every town and hamlet in
the vicinity. Hundreds Of tourists
will be coming through the city and
Bogalusans will have a better oppor-
tunity to become acquainted with the
residents of Pearl River county.

INDIANAPOLIS TEAM
MAY TRAIN HERE

Indications are that the st. Louis
Browns may give up the most ideal
spring training quarters in America
and not return here this coming
spring. Robert Quinn, business man
ager of the Browns, made the state
ment last week that they would not
train here because "Bogalusa Off
Gals had failed to fulfill certain ar
Fangements." The Certain arrange
ments," it is given out from reliable
source, is that the price of boarding
the players was slightly advanced and
that the ball diamond had not been
sOdded.
It cost several thousand dollars to
get everything in shape for the
Browns last season. At that time
everyone was making money, but
since then business conditions have
not been normal and no one cares to
take loss these days.
However, the Bogalusa fans need
not be surprised if the Browns re-
consider and return here, for they
not only have the best training quar-
ters in the United States, but were
given a hearty welcome and were
royalty entertained during their stay
here last year.
In the event that st. Louis does not
train here, the Indianapolis team Of
the American Association is anxious
to come, as are also two other teams.

will arrive in Bogalusa Sunday for a

pected to be accomplished at this
meeting. No set program has been
announced, but the guests can ex-
pect a typical Bogalusa welcome,
while something unique in the way of
business sessions will be held for the
statesmen. They will likely spend sew
eral hours on the plant and possibly
one of the meetings will be an "old-
fashioned experience meeting"
Among the statesmen will be several
we'll known to Bogalusa citizens,
among whom are Mr.. and Mrs. D. B..
Haven, Mr.. and Mrs. Carl Bougere of
Charleston, W. Va.

FOR "Y" LIBRARY

The Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation, assisted by the Boy Scouts
and members of the Boys Depart
ment will put on a drive to secure
additional books for the Y. M. C. A.

where they will be accessible to a.
large number of men ard boys:
Books will Ne catalogued and sys-
tenn of circulation worked out so as
to give the widest use possible Of the
present collection and all that will be
added. This drive affords an oppor-
tunity for citizens of Bogalusa to
swap" books which they have read
for others, through the library.

early date, giving out information
with reference to the time books will
be called for and other information,

The Magic City Post Of the Amer.
lean Legion entertained seventy-odd
members at a Dutch supper and
smoker following the regular business
meeting Tuesday evening at the Ar
mory. The luncheon, prepared and

a pair of likely looking box-fighters
for match here in February. The
bouts will be put on in the Armory

est and more than a hundred have

prospects of reaching the goal.

we're announced and a team of speak
ers will be sent to each of these
towns.

Plenty Of RoomOn
the Wedding Special

The hundreds of BOgalusa citizens
who are planning to attend the Sui
livan-Salmen wedding at Slidell need
not worry about securing accommo-
dations on the special train which will
be run from Bogalusa to that city,
according to ]. H. Cassidy, who is
looking after this part of the pro-
gram.
The N. o. G. N. has promised at
least six passenger coaches and, if
necessary, several cabooses can be-
secured and no one need worry about
accommodations, because provision
will be made for all.
1t is expected that Bogalusa will
have a greater number of citizens at
the wedding than Sidell and as a re-
suit keen rivalry is being developed.
A special train will likely be run
out of New Orleans to carry the
scores of friends from that city to
Slidell.
The marriage will be solemnized on
Friday, January 9th, the exact hour
of the ceremony has not been an
nounced, but will take place about
80 p. m.

NEW ORLEANS Y. M. C. C.
DEFEATS LOCAL Y. M. C. A

The Y. M. G. C. basketball team of
New Orleans took the measure of the
Y. M. G. A. in a fast game of basket
ball Saturday at the local Y. NJ. C. A.,
the score at the end of the interest
ing contest standing 80 to "a in favor
of the visitors.
Owing to the inclement weather
the crowd was not as large as ex-
pected, but those who braved the rain
were given an opportunity to see a
we'll drilled team in action. After
piling up a large score in the first
half of the contest Coach Poche of
New Orleans sent in his second team
to play against the Bogalusans, but
was given a scare when the locals
started in to pick up the lost ground
and outplayed their opponents.
