The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1886-11-27

The following article from the
Bryan Pilot is applicable to Lake
Charles and, indeed, all other towns,
as well as Bryan.
"The parents of Bryan should keep
more watehful eye on their boys
than some of them do, and not allow
them the freedom of the town at
night. 1t is a painful fact that until
far into the night, boys of all ages
may be seen wandering about the
streets, smoking poisonous cigarettes,
indnlging in all manner of profanity
and obscenity, and not at all ashamed
of the low habits they are forming.
These boys think it highly honorable
to become slough" and delight in the
thought that they are able TO drink a
glass Of beer at one gulp. Parents,
do you not realize what your boys are
coming too 1t is such carelcssness on
yOur part that fills orr jaiIs and peni-
tentiaries. You want your boys to be
reared as gentlemen, TO be a comfort
and support to you in your old age,
and yet You are letting them go in
ways that will whiien your hair with
shame and send you to your grave
heart broken. Boys have no business
roaming the streets at night, falling
into disreputable company and form,
ing habits that will mold the charac-
ter forever. 1t is easy 10 entrap the
Young, unsuspecting mind, but hard
to turn it from vicious ways when
once formed"

The subscription books of the Asso-
citation are now open at the Office OF
the Secretary, at j. w. Bryan's store,
and all those DESTROYS of securing a
home on the installmeut plan are in
yited to send in their applications.
Homestead Associations are the
boon of the laboring classes, as
through their aid thousands of this
class throughout this State are now
the possessors Of neat and comfortable
homes, that otherwise would ever have
remained tenants. These Associa-
tons also offer good investment for
capital, as the security is good aud
the profits large. So we say come
forward everybody and join the Home
stead Association. None, however,
but residents of Louisiana can become
members.
