Louisiana holly plea prompts festive conservation drive
The Louisiana Federation of Women's Clubs launches a statewide appeal to spare holly from depletion as Christmas nears. State president Mrs Arthur M Arthur says the effort marks the new conservation department led by Miss Caroline Dorman and urges swapping holly for pines and cedars while still allowing limited holly use. The piece includes Caroline Dorman's poem The Holly Speaks and notes holiday gatherings and club meetings across Monroe as residents seek seasonal decor amid dwindling holly supplies.

Monroe to have a grand Christmas display this year
If plans materialize Monroe could host the most beautiful Christmas in history with public and city cooperation. Camp Fire Girls under Mrs L R Millar planted pine trees at city school grounds and ask the city to light them during the holidays. A municipal tree on the courthouse lawn and illuminated Camp Fire trees across residential areas would create a radiant, memorable scene.
