The minutes of the last meeting were

The following letters from the Governor

read
STATE OF LOUISIANA.
Executive Department,
New Orleans, October 10th, 1917
To the Police Jury parish of St. Landry:
GENTLEMEN Il am convinced that the
Louisiana Levee Company. TO whom the
Legislature, contrary to my advice, gave
the contract for rebuilding and maintaining
the leyees of the State, will not be able to
comply with the expectations of the public
in time to prepare for the autumn and
spring rise in the Mississippi river. | had
hoped, until within o few hours, that the
arrangement said to have been made by the
former st: ckholders, with capitalists at the
North, would have secured an advance of
money in anticipation of the collection of
the tag provided by the charter, and that
such work as might be necessary to protect
your parish from overflow would have been
done, but this hope has been dissipated, and
it now rests with the parochial authorities,
with such aid as / can give them, to take
measures to protect themselves. You have
general authority, in SO far as | can give to
YOU, to do such work as may be necessary
to save your people from overflow, and the
Legislature will, I have no doubt, devise
means to reimburse your parish for the ex-
pense incurred in the work.
have directed the chief engineer to en-
ploy such assistance as he may deem neces,
eary to direct and supervise the work done
under your authority. I advise you TO call a
meeting Of the planters of your parish, and
others interested in this matter, and lay the
subject before them and obtain their advice
and assistance.
The chief engineer will have the work
necessary to be done marked out, and will
take care to see that it is properly executed,
and will lay your claims for reimbursement
before the Legislature for its action.
will do everything in my power to help
you. | desire to hear from you, on the sub.
iect, at your ~earlies, convenience.

The most rational word that has been
said on the questions of celibacy and mar

you'll repent Of it. Fontenelle, in his latter
days, regretted that be had not married.
