and Mrs. T. W. Stark, with Mrs. Theo Jones, Misses Ola Cooper and Olive Colwell as hostesses.

The living room was attractively decorated with azalea-mums, chrysanthemums, red honeysuckles, and nan-dena berries. After a closed business session. Miss Barbara Nan Corry, leader of the International Relations program, introduced Miss Bessie Noble, who gave a most enthusiastic characterization of Madam Chiang Kai-Shek, the First Lady of China. "Meiling-Soong," Madam Chiang's Chinese name and "Beautiful Mood" in English, is one who in her own particular way is as important in the affairs of today as is Winston Churchill. In picking up clues to Madam The local Kiwanis Club had as guests at the regular luncheon on last Wednesday noon M.

"Fessor" Hull, District Governor-elect, and P. T. "Ee" Ecton, Secretary-elect, of the Louisiana-Mississippi-West Tennessee District, and both officials made talks at the luncheon. The District Governor inducted into the club a new member, Fred Hathorn, assistant county agent. The program was in charge of the Committee on Public Relations, Artie Page, chairman, and he called upon the newly elected Governor who is a past -president of the Rayville Club, at present a member of the Opelousas uiuD, to accept the assignment as principal speaker, which he graciously did.

He dwelt awhile on the war situation, then turned to the Kiwanis officers' school, recently held in Chicago, which was attended by both him and District Secretary Ecton. He outlined the work proposed to be done in the forthcoming year, which he characterized as the greatest challenge yet to Kiwanis. He stated that schools of instruction to newly elected officers would be held all the way down the line to better inform and equip these representative citizens for the work to be done by Kiwanis during 1944. The newly-elected district secretary also told of the meeting and what he had gotten out of it. which is the first time the district secretaries have sat In on one of the annual Kiwanis International meetings.

He gave the information that there were over 1,700 Kiwanians in this district and over 120,000 in Kiwanis International, and that in achievements our district ranked third. Jimmie Thompson made a brief talk on the "Keep America American" campaign now under way, which drew a short talk from the District Governor on the great work this idea was putting over. A. C. Clark made a brief report on the United War Fund drive in Richland parish.

As chairman he was proud to report that our parish had exceeded its quota of $3,278 by donating more than $4,000, every ward except the sixth reaching and exceeding its quota. The program, for next week will be one on Thanksgiving by the Committee on Citizenship, Albert Alford, chairman. Hester Says Teachers Not to Be Left Out of Picture Arcadia, La Nov. 14. E.

R. Hester, president of the Louisiana Teachers Association, said today that the teachers would never agree to any plan to borrow money through the Board of Liquidation or by polling the legislature for relief of the various state agencies which left the teachers out, hospitals excepted. Hester said that it had been proposed that the needs of the thirty-four state agencies whose funds had been tied up In court be taken care of by borowing under authority of an act of the legislature of 1908 which the Bureau of Governmental Research of New Orleans had agreed not to attack in court; and, then to poll the legislature for authority to borrow money to pay teachers a living salary under an act of the legislature of 1916 which the bureau said would be at- tacked in the courts. The proposal made was that when the polling of the legislature was attacked in the courts, the case would be tried and carried to the Supreme Court as expeditiously as possible, etc "In other words," stated the teachers' association president, "it Is proposed that everyone be taken care of except the teachers and then maybe they would get something about March or April next year." Hester further stated that state parks commission, library commission, district attorneys expense accounts, finance department, Judges' pension, and other departments could wait just as easily, or easier, as the teachers and that all could go "up or down together." As for the Bureau of Governmental Research of New Orleans agreeing not attack the move to borrow money for the thirty-four departments leaving the teachers out of the picture, Hester states L. T.

A. would bitterly oppose such a nefarious scheme. "Call it the dog in the manger attitude if you wish," stated Hester, "all I have "to say Is that the teachers have always been the dog and we are going to bite since growling has not been effective." Thus far in this war. Army Ordnance has provided the battle equipment machine guns, cannon, bombs for more than 100,000 American built planes. Claude Brown, Electrician's Mate Third Class.

I. X. GRASIIOT Dear Mr. Mangham: After missing several weeks without getting any second class mail up here, I finally did, and was I glad to get the copies of the paper. It's still just i like getting letters from home, only this is like one lare letter, written by the people of the home town.

I noticed in one copy a letter from W. K. Bass to W. M. Temple.

If there's any way possible for me to get W. address I would certainly like to. You see while I was stationed in Hawaii it just so happened that he and I were at the same base together. But since then I haven't been able to locate him. I read that he had been inducted into the Shellbacks.

You know when you cross the equator you undergo quite an initiation to get in the Shellbacks. Before that you're a lowly Polywog. But it was my good luck to get in. I sent the cards home that I got for the equator and the international date line. We've been seeing quite a little action lately.

But I can tell you that I think the Nip3 are weakening fast. They used to bother us a lot but now it isn't so bad. The news is great up here. I wish I could tell you a few things that have happened but as the censor says, "Nothing doing." Here's hoping I see everyone real soon. Well, until the planes come flying home, I remain Your friend, PFC.

D. N. GRASHOT. P. S.

The envelope I'm enclosing has our squadron insignia on it. Notice the Flying Deuces and UMF-222. This would go good in the paper, to let the folks see what it looks like. Thanks a lot. TO A SLACKER Can't you see this world Is far from peace? Or have you been hiding like some I know, awaiting it all to cease? Surely there must be some way you might learn, although you now prosper, no riches you'll earn.

How can you retain such low spirit within your soul? When you've shunned all chances to help seek the goal? Maybe there's many a lad who went away; if you had done your part he might have come home some day. What did you say was your voca tion? Yes. I understand. You in- formed the draft board you were a farmer who had just fought your iani Where are your children? Oh, I forgot, there isn't one. Your wife teaches school while you dodge the draft from sun till sun.

When there's no more blood shed, no more sad goodbyes, and you're no longer a slacker, 'tis then you can say: "Thank God, I opened my eyes." MRS. ALEX ROBINSON BESS LAKE NEWS Burdis Allen of the U. S. Navy enjoyed a delightful leave for the week end with his parents and relatives. T.

ARCHIBALD THANKSGIVING CHURCH SERVICE On Thanksgiving Day at 10:30 o'clock there will be services at the Baptist church, at which time our Service Flag, a love gift to the church, will be dedicated, along with the American and Christian flags, in a fitting ceremony. On the service flag will be found stars on which appear names of the boys from our church who are serving "out yonder somewhere," and we feel that no time could be more appropriate than Thanksgiving to meet and offer thanks to God for the preservation of their lives thus far to rededi-cate them and ourselves anew to the services of our Master, and to invoke his blessings upon each boy from our community and 1 each home from whence he has gone. The sadness of separation and realizing they are serving that we might carry on back home, should bind us together in a closer bond of love and brotherhood. and inspire us to put our best on the altar, so upon returning our boys can see and feel we have not forgotten them.

An invitation is extended all who are interested In such a service to come worship with us, especially mothers and fathers of some soldier boy. Families of the church are requested to provide baskets of food so that we may all enjoy a real eld fashioned Thanksgiving together under the tree3. REPORTER Presbyterian Church Notes REV. A. R.

HARRISON JORDAN III GAS LOUISIANA BAN Chiang's personality, you might puzzle over this one.

When a student at Wellesby College, Macon, Georgia, she spelled her name "Meiling," the Chinese fashion, and wore American clothes. Now she spells it "Mayling," the American version, and wears Chinese costumes. "Madam Chiang Kai-Shek has done far more than all diplomats together to win the hearts of America and friendship for China. Her career began with her marriage to the Generalissimo. Mayling Soong went into partnership with her husband, working with him for China.

When she permits herself to remind us that she has come from six years of the horrors of modern warfare, we are shocked into awe-struck admiration. Her road has led through blood; her ears have been deadened with the frightful din, the terrifying whistling, shrieking, unendurable noise of the war which scientific civilization has produced. Six years of this and how many more! Yet, she is too gracious to dwell upon it, too proud to reproach us, and too strong in spirit to be broken by it. Only a great woman could master such experiences." The latter phase of our program was devoted to a discussion of our own Louisiana, General Claire Lee Chen-nault and hi3 Flying Tigers. This was beautifully done by our guest, Mrs V.

mcmhoF rt Vio I Senior Literary Club. "Chennault was and is a school teacher. His primary aim is to tret your man and save Interesting gists were quoted from the wife of the chief of staff on the intimate lives of the Flying Tigers. Each Fly ing Tiger called Chennault 'the Old Man and loved him a3 a father, because he dispensed with all formalities and forgot all ratings. His sincere concern of each of hi3 Flying Tigers was conveyed upon every departure for a raid by his repeating 'Get your man and save yourself." As an ambassador of good will General Claire Chennault has done for America in China what Madam Chiang Kai-Shek has done for China in America.

The conclusion of the program was group singing of the Army, Navy, Marine, and Army Air Corps hymns, led by Mrs. Theo Jones. A delicious salad with coffee and a conversational hour was enjoyed by all present.

Respectfully, THE LONG FAMILY LETTER FROM BILL BUTLER Southwest Pacific, November 5, 1943. Dear Mother and Dad: Well at last here I am again to write you a few more lines. This leaves me about the same as usual." I haven't received any of your mail since the two V-mail letters came and I don't have the slightest idea now when I will get any. At the time you wrote the second V-mail letter you seemed pretty worried about not hearing from me.

but by now I guess you are used to doing without. The difference is that I know where the delay is and no doubt you don't, so I don't think much of it. I had often wondered how I could stand up under fire or bombing attacks and carry on my duty and to my own surprise I wasn't hardly excited at all when they hit us the first time. Fortunately though, I didn't have to treat but very few wounded I never will forget the first pass their planes made at us. I had wandered off into the trees looking for some of our medical supplies and had started back toward the (censored).

Just about the time I got in the clearing they gave the warning and I did a quick about face and headed for the jungles. WTiile I ran I looked up over my shoulder and there he was, diving as straight toward me as a line, I thought. About that time I did some diving myself. I landed behind a small palm tree about as big as my head. Why I did that, I don't know, for a bullet could have probably gone through it.

Anyway, after it was all over and the little slant-eye was shot to 1 we all had a big laugh. No joke, it really is funny how you can react when It seems that you don't have time to think. I don't have any idea when the Xmas presents will reach this neck of the woods. When and if they do get here I should enjoy them, especially if there Is anything to eat. I've eaten dam field rations until good meal would probably make me sick.

When I get home if I don't get my fill of chicken dumplings and sweet milk, right away I will be ready to come back out here. Ha!
