PROCLAMATION
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
CITY OF BOGALUSA,
LOUISIANA.
WHEREAS, the various problems of conser
vation have in recent years deservedly received
increased attention, and commendable as is the
movement to conserve our natural resources, I
am impressed also with the great need of pre
serving our created resources, the properties of
our people, for our builded properties represent
time, money and energy, and everyone of those
buildings destroyed through the agency of fire
is an irretrievable loss to the community at large,
and
WHEREAS, the annual destruction of prop
erty by fire in this country equals in value nearly
a quarter of a billion of dollars. Louisiana's fire
loss during 1921, according to statistics compiled
by the State Fire Marshal's Department,
amounted to approximately Six Million Dollars
(86,000,000). These amounts represent a tax
which must be paid by the people ; and
WHEREAS, study of this important problem
shows that sixty-fiv,e (65%) per cent of this
great waste can be eliminated; that the great
bulk of fires are due to carelessness or ignorance
and urgently call for remedial action on the part
of the people and their officials ;
THEREFORE, in accordance with the cus
tom already established, and in order to arouse
our people to a full realization of fire dangers,
and to induce them to take an active interest in
the subject, I, W. H. Sullivan, Mayor of the City
of Bogalusa, hereby proclaim June as Fire Pre
vention Month, and I hereby recommend that
our people observe it by a general cleaning up,
the removal of rubbish, trash and waste from
their premises, and also by studying the cause
and prevention of fires. ,
Given under my hand and the seal of the
City of Bogalusa, this the ninth day of June,
A. D., 1922.
W. H. SULLIVAN, Mayor.

BAPTIST REVIVAL !
UAC rDCAT npr«i kt kttKT s-*
HAS GREAT BEGINNING
The iirst services of the revival
j meeting at the First Baptist Church
: Sunday were very unusual in interest,
[attendance and in visible results. Be
cause of the splendid preparations j
- . . ,
made through the advertisements and
i the cottage prayer meetings, the
; meeting began to take on a j/'rtain a
I intensity from the beginning. At the j
I the Sunday morning hour the Taber
jnacle was almost filled, and at the
J evening hour it was completely filled,
I and in addition two hundred or moi - e j
iwere seated around the Tabernacle.
[During the day there were fourteen
additions to the church.
Monday, the hard day in a meeting, |
showed a very unusual attendance- [in
At the 10 o'clock service there assem
bled one of the best week-day con
gregations that hasTbeen seen at this t
j church, and to the surprise of many,
j the Monday night crowd practical'y j
i filled the Tabernacle again. j
i Evangelist Solomon is bringing
very pungent and vital messages that
jdo not fail to hold the attention and
grip the hearts of the multitude whe .
: come to hear him. Rev. Solomon also of
I conducts, in/person the Men's Prayer I
: Meeting, which meets each evening in
the new Sunday School building at ;
7:30 o'clock.
Mr. Armstrong has organized a
wonderful chorus choir that has al
ready become one of the leading at-jlf
j tractions of the meeting. In the aft- •
ernoons at 4 o'clock he also trains a ' I
junior choir that promises to be one j
of the great factors in the musical
program of the meeting. More than r
sixty of the juniors met him for the
first rehearsal Monday afternoon.
Mrs. Armstrong, in addition to
singing in the duet3 with her husband,
and presiding at the piano in the
morning services, conducts the Wom
en's Prayer Meeting in the church
building each evening, also a soul
winning class at the close of the
morning services.
Some of the special features of the
meeting coming, are'as follows:
First, a converted ex-gambler F.

Help Retain New
' Laurels For City
! As the most progressive little citv
. in the South, Bogalusa took the hon
j ors a few years ago, and there is no
competition. As a manufacturing
city it ranks about third in the state,
It and is rapidly growing. This year
new honors came when Bogalusa "was
pronounced by hundreds of visitors
'as the prettiest and cleanest little city
anywhere, but if we are to retain this
honor, it will be necessary for everv
.citizen to do his part. Business and
professional men, tenants and house
owners must all work to keep their
premises clean and attractive as dos
sibie. Not only will it make a great
impression upon visitors, but it will
also result in better health,
! City Engineer Willis has stated
? that if the garbage man does not give
you section good service to phone him
at the City Hall,
' Once everyone takes an interest
in keeping the city clean and pretty,
no one would think of permitting his
premises to contain any rubbish.
! Keeping the city clean is up to
citizen regardless of his loca
Aion, vocation or color.
FIFTEEN YEARS WITH
j
GREAT SOUTHERN
, When it comes to staying on the
job and giving loyal service, there is
one man in Bogalusa who came in for
a record this week. The gentleman is
j Ed F. Flannagin of the operating de
partment of the Great Southern Lum
ber Company, one of the best known
citizens of Bogalusa.
j Mr. Flannagin has been with the
Great Southern Lumber Company for
fifteen years, coming here the follow
jing day after his school adjourned.
| "There was not much to Bogalusa
[in those days, several tents, a few lit
tie buildings and the dressed shed of
|the Great Southern. We played balU
t where the mill pond now stands," said
Mr. Flannagin.
j His first job was to work as a
j helper to an electrician in placing
wires in the dressed shed. His pro
motions have come steadily until to
day he has one of the most responsi
. ble positions in the organization, that
of looking after accidents.
I When asked what he thought of the
Great Southern as an employer, Mr.
; Flannagin said : "The fact that I
.have been with the one company for
[fifteen years, and never cared to join
another, is the best answer I can give,
I did not believe that it was the
• best concern in America to work for,
' I would not be here today."
