Begin right at the beginning OF
the season and the

Begin wrong, or begin late and
who's nimble enough to catch up?
The wrong but usual way Of
beginning sales of
Spring goods in midwinter is to
brush up the old goods, the relics,
the left-overs, reticket the fossils,
and halloo them out to the world as
Bargains.
Our beginning reverses such tao
tics, our seasons
beginning was never quite as cor
rect as now. We began two months
ago and, with, much elaboration, we
gave our import / orders before
Christmas trade began.

full new Spring fabrics
hot from foreign looms, fuzzy with
dainty bloom Of foreign art.

you to be present and bring a friend

selected costume.

flowing locks and long, gray beard al

Excursion Tomorrow.

Remember that the grand excursion
to Lake Charles comes off tomorrow,
the train passing Opelousas at 7:30 a. m.,
and returning it will leave Lake
Charles at 6 p. IN. The fare is only
$3.50 from Washington, Opelousas and
Bellevue, from Grand Coteau 1926, and
the objective point is the most rapidly
growing city in the State, which pre-
sents many objects of interest to the
visitor while offering to his gaze an
eloquent object lesson revealing in a
striking manner the almost magical
transformation which enterprise and
push and the infusion of new blood
have accomplished in one OF the least
favored sections of Southwest Louisi-
ana. The comfortable and up-to-date
trains of the Southern Pacific will con-
vey you smoothly through one OF the
most smiling sections OF the State and
past the pretty and growing and COM
paratively new towns of Lafayette,
Rayne, Crowley, Jennings and Welsh,
and the little trip will do you good.
We acknowledge receipt from the
courteous managers Of complimentary
ticket and will be sure to be on hand.

ed by the most laudable sentiments,
and we bespeak for him most cordial
welcome by our people. He is talent
ed and eloquent pulpit orator, and in
bis circumscribed sphere of vicar has
made very favorable impression-one
which will be emphasized, we have no
doubt, by his zealons labors in the

The Atlanta Exposition.

In conversation with lady connected
with the Atlanta exposition, the ques.
ton was put: "Is there anything left
for this occasion 2" for that was ques.
tion which no one felt competent to
answer after the Worlds Columbian
demonstration. But the lady ans.
wered: "Yes, next fall, when the
Atlanta exposition opens, there will be
one unique feature which was not
thought of in connection with the
worlds fair. 1t will be Negro Build
ing.' and the dimensions will be 100 by
300 feet. 1t will be beautiful struc-
ture. For the first time in the history
of the African race in America it will
have an opportunity of exhibiting its
progress and enlightenment under the
sunlight of freedom. The exhibit will
show, by way of contrast, the condition
Of the race 10 Africa, but it is intended
mainly to illustrate the advancement of
the southern negro. Types of the free
men of Dixie, unknown in the North,
will be shown. The colored education
al institutions of the South are expect
cd to make splendid exhibits"
One OF the most interesting and in-
structive features of the Government
display in the Forestry Building at the
Cotton States and International Ex-
position will be a set Of three models,
the one to represent a 160.acre farm in
the Hill lands of the South, which by
bad management, and especially by
improper cutting of the forest, has be-
come quilted, furrowed and silted over,
such as one can SEQ almost in every
State.
The next model will show how with
bush dams, with ditching, proper drain
age, with terracing, with soddiDg and
replanting, the lost ground may be
recovered, while the third model, rep
resenting the same 100 acres, is to show
how, finally, the farm should look
ideally: with the fields and meadows
aud forest growth properly disposed,
in good condition, the roads running
at proper levels instead of up and
down, the fences reduced to the small
est extent practicable.
1t is hoped that this object lesson
will he studied by every farmer and
stimulate him to improved methods.
