Why Wear Mourning?

Poplarville Free Press: Ever
since We have been old enough to
reason on any subject, our ideas
in regard to wearing mourning
have been very similar to the fol-
lowing as expressed by the North
American Review:
The custom is outworn; it is
an anachronism in the nineteenth
century. It is unchristian; it
clouds the spiritual significance of
the resurrection with the ever pre-
sent expression of temporal loss.
it is cruel, it forces helpless and
innocent people into action which
entails privation and unnecessary
suffering 1t is untruthful; it
makes false outward show of chan
ges in sentiment. And it is es-
sentially vulgar; for it presses
private affairs upon public notice;
it thrusts claims of fashion and
frivolity upon a time which most
greatly moves the heights and
debts Of being; and it forces its
superficial worlddiness into the fe-
rcest throes which can ever rend
human nature. Why then do We
still wear mourning?"

Shall We Have A Bank?

The Town of St. Martinville to-
day presents quite different as
pect from what it did five or six
months ago. the merchants claim
that their sales have been fifty per
cent better than last November
and December. Main street, which
then presented deserted appear
,ance has now become busy COM
mercial thoroughfare, upon which
we meet every day, people from
Breaux ridge, Loreauville, Ar
naudville ard other of our neigh
boring towns, who come here to
buv from our stores. which are
sufficiently we'll stocked, to attract
their attention.
st. Martinvilie in its retrogres-
sive march has met a "Wall' that
"Walr' was total extinction, the
shock produced against that Wall
has awakened our merchants and
the consequence is the town has
assumed progressive marcel aid
has now reached that stage of de-
vellopment called a boom. Pro-
perty was so low that no one
bought, no one wished to sell, it
is to be noticed that no one now
wishes to sell, new stores are be-
ing built, and the important sub
ject now under consideration is a
BANK.
With population of 1000, and
no towns within radius of ten
miles, the town of st. Martinville
offers great advantages to a bank.
Already there are two central re-
fneries and one which no doubt
will he ,rected for the coming
crop. These viii now double the
production ~ cane, making the
necessity # bank TIE more i'm
perious T. are stamping in

now, must go to New Iberia for
all banking transactions. The
Shingle, Oil and Cotton Mills as
well as the merchants are CON-
PEELED to 90 to New Iberia for
business transactions where loan
of money is necessary. New Ibe-
ria, by this, gets from this town a
large portion o. business which |
ought to be transacted here
a bank, besides being OF pecu-
mary benefit to those in business,

lations it would by its examples,
no doubt, do away to some extent,
