GREETINGS TO OUR READERS.
The St. Tammany Farmer wishes its readers a Merry Christmas and a
Prosperous New Year. The scarcity of paper makes it inadvisable to
issue the kind of holiday edition we would like to give, our readers, and
we are passing up two or three hundred dollars worth of business we
could have had.
Let us hope that the year 1920 will give us some relief from the diiti
culties standing in the way of the immense business that is crying out for
opportunity. Congress soon must take some action that will give relief
from combines and profiteering. Politics are all right in a way--but
politics are now too much in the way. CPatience has its limits.
O
JOHN L. HALLER.
In retiring from the head of the Red Cross of St. Tammany pari'h
Mr. John L. Haller closes a very active career in war service. Probably
no man among us has given more time and money to the various under
takings made necessary by conditions arising from the war. Especially
is this true of his work for the Red Cross. !Mr. Haller may feel that he
has earned public approval and appreciation.
THE INVASION.
When the Stubbs forces invaded Slidell,
As reported in the Daily States,
Stubbs supporters must have run like hell,
For as C. M. Liddle the story relates
But five Slidell men heard the debates
From Covington four
Three speakers galore,
iMaking twelve men in all,
A real chilly hall,
An up-the-stump Hall
A very poor haul
For Stubbs
By Gubbs.
PRECIOUS MOMENTS WASTED.
Mrs. Slumm--They're not going to
have the Christmas tree at the church
tonight. Not till next Friday night,
Jimmlie I
Jimmle--Gosh I Will I have to wash
me bhands agin uex' week, too?
Get your Christmas Turkeys at
at L.Levy's Monroe and 21st Street.
Hon C. M. Liddle, of Sidell, was
a business visitor to Covington last
