Liberty
Bonfire and
Speakers Draw Large
Attendance
The Liberty Bonfire and patriotic
speaking supervised by Mrs. M. D.
Shannon as chairman held on the
City Hall Square at 7 o'clock last
night was a success from every
viewpoint. Promptly at 7 o'clock
bells and whistles throughout the
city, taking their cue from the strik
ing of the hour by the City Hall
dock, rang and blew in unison while
the flames from the barrel bonfire
lighted up the City Hall scene. Far
overhead, Firemen Arceneaux super
intended the place of red signal
flares around the rim of the great
water tower. Several hundred peo
ple shivered in the cutting atmos
phere, held by their patriotic eager
ness to lend their presence to a pro
gram of patriotism. Mr. F. D. Win
chester briefly addressed the as
sembly and urged their stfpport to
Mm Second Liberty Bond issue,
pointing out that the government
•desires the participation of every
■citizen and would rather the entire
loan be made up of small subscrip
tions than to have it subscribed by a
few capitalists. The purchase of a
Liberty Bond make the purchaser a
participant in the nation's war for
liberty and the speaker assured such
purchasers that their investment in
a Liberty Bond was the safest of in
vestments.
Mr. J. P. Hebert,
who followed
Mr. Winchester, held the 'close at
tention of his hearers in' an earnest
speech of patriotic fervor. He called
attention to encroaching effects of
the world war to its impending in
fluence over every American home.
He said that every bond purchased
meant life to an American soldier
and that the imperative duty of ev
ery civilian is to lend freely of mon
ey and material in the national cri

sis. He described the nature of the

benefits to be derived both by the
nation and the purchaser. Mr. He
bert's speech was genuine in feeling
and produced a responsive feeling
from his audience.
Mr. Hebert was followed by a Mr.

who introduced himself and enter
