The Beacon-News i3 the paper of every part of Richland parish, and desires to serve all the people.

Let us hear from some patriotic citizens who are interested in keeping the doings of their towns and communities before the public eye. Mrs. E. M. Trezevant returned home Tuesday after a visit to her cousin, Miss Fannie Lou Davis, of Shreveport.

Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Mangham went over to Shreveport last Tuesday in response to a message telling of the serious wounding of Mr.

E. I. Davis, commissioner of public utilities of Shreveport, by a deluded employe of the citv. Thev found Mr. JJavis, wno is a cousin of Mr.

Mangham, in a serious condition from a deep knife wound, but with a splendid chance for recovery barring infection or other complications. Mr. Davis has been the guest of Mr. Mangham on many occasions since their youth, and he has a legion of friends in Rayville and Richland parish, principally old hunting companions, who rejoice in his remarkable escape from the attempted assassination by a fiend who did succeed in killing a man who was really the man's best friend.

and Mrs. S. N. Lynch and baby, of Longview, Texas, were week-end guests of relatives, Mr. and Mrs.

I. M. Newberry and Mr. and Mrs. A.

This organization has for one of its arms the raising of the educational standards in the colored schools of the parLsn. Officers and Prominent Members Dr.

Harrison Jordan Makes Announcement For Representative Dr. Harrison Jordan, prominent planter of Trio Plantation, 5 miles north of Rayville, and former Repre sentative of Richland Parish, has yielded to the solicitation of numerous I friends and consented to offer as a candidate for Representative of Rich- land Parish, submitting his claiiKS to the electorate in the primary election i of January 16th, 1940. His formal an- I nouncement and a card to the voters over his signature will be found in this issue. Dr. Jordan was born and reared cn Trio Plantation, his present home i where he has resided all of his life.

TTft is a farmpr nnrl a mi Vil i n-ni ri 1 1 I citizen well-known to every section of the parish. He was Representative i from this Parish in the Lower House of the Legislature for several terms, and was known as a fearless and independent lawmaker. He weighed every measure on its merits, and voted according to his convictions irrespective of whether the measure was sponsored by the administration then in office or not. Since the late upheaval in Louisiana politics friends of Dr. Jordan feel that it is time for a legislator such as he to return to the House.

As a result of this sentiment he has been drafted to make the race. Dr. Jordan has been in political retirement since he elected not to offer for Representative when the late John M. Ferguson was chosen for the place. However, he has never been out of touch with current events and political affairs; and his interest has been just as intense as when he held office.

He hopes to see you personally and discuss the issues confronting the people today, but in case he misses you, he wishes each and every voter to Mulh earn FUNERAL HOME and FLOWER SHOP Phone 68 RAYVILLE, LA. rt omen Duiid-up Women's headaches, nervousness, cramp-like pain3 may be symptoms of functional dysmenorrhea due to malnutrition!

Wiley Monday, Oct. 20 6 ZZI Richland Parish Baptist Association In Session This Week To this Assembly Body, Leaders, Associated Co-workers: This preamble brings to your attention a fact that is worthy of your serious consideration and approval. One feature of our program in association with our religious work, is to cultivate friendly relations and a better understanding with the great white man right here in our town and parish.

Too, in the last few months thousands of dollars have been spent in the improvement of our town and parish, which adds very much to the material well being and comfort of its citizens, for all of which we are ever grateful. So what we need is more business contact with our white business leaders for guidance and direction. The Beacon-News is a great paper. Its editor is a Christian gentleman, very kind and considerate to our people. The columns of his paper are open to the Richland Parish Baptist Association to receive and convey any clean matter to its members and people throughout parish and state.

This, you see, will help us to put over our program in a big way with the least possible expense. Then, especially every leader that fills the offices of the different auxiliaries that make up our Association, should of his own free will and accord subscribe for this paper, the official journal of the par ish. Such a course will facilitate and promote the success of our program as nothing else will. Our good white people are always ready and willing know that he will appreciate their vote and support, pledging the same patriotic, independent and unselfish service which characterized his former service and merited repeated re- elections. A GENERAL.

MOTORS VALUE Hsu I vs to help the colored man in any worthy work into which he engages to help himself. Let us make our Associa- tion a constructive force for good the life of the people of the parish. pointing out the highest ideals in human life the brotherhood of man, the Fatherhood of God. Thanks.
