To the Editor of Morning Star:
Five or six weeks of fine growing

was made last year.
Times are dull, and money is not to be
had. Property sells at merely nominal

went for song" The plantation of
Hon. c. A. Brusle, near ST. Gabriel, in this
Parish, established and cultivated as q
sugar estate, was sold for the pittance OF
S7I0O-title good. Several pieces of de-
siraole town property were adjudlcated at
correspondingly low Aggression less, in
fact, than the main buildings on them cost
This is truly an ugly state of affairs, and
claims the attention of every good citizen.
Add to this the heavy burden of taxation
the people of our State have to bear, and
one must admit that the planters deserve
praise for working along as courageously
| as they do.
Pursuant to call made by our kind
pastor, Father D'Hemecourt, at High Mass
last Sunday, . number of gentlemen-old
and young, of our congregation assembled
in the evening at the presbytery, and after
tory of the meeting, the gentlemen present
at once organized and proceeded to form q
section of the Catholic Militant Union of
the Cross, by erecting Michel Herbert,
Esq.. worthy representative Of the old
| Creole stock of our section, President /;
John II. Shanks, editor of the Iberville
South, Vice President; Austin Hunt,
Treasurer; and Lucien Grass, Secretary.
Thus this good work has been begun in
our midst, and we hope will 60 on until
every member Of our congregation is en-
rolled in the Militant Union, to do his part
in the great Catholic movement of the
world. PELICAN.

A STUDENT.-Caleb Cushing,
born early in the year 1900,
while in Paris recently, devot-
ed three hours each day to the
study of French under an en-
inent teacher. When it is re-
flected that he has spoken and
written the French language
fuently for over forty years.
some idea of his devotion to
study may DE arrived at. If al
such an advanced age he de-
sires to acquire, as he says, IA
greater felicity of expression, .
is anybody justified in consid,
ering it too" late" to undertake
anything?
