Large Eaters.

Large eaters are generally de-
ficient in activity end endurance. l
used to know one who tried hard to
be Christian, but failed because Of
too much dinner. That man was a
curiosity. He worked in small
wood-turning shop and ate five times
day. When he consulted me about
his "poor stomach" told him fatty
that he was a pig. He replied !:
"You are mistaken; l am faint half
the time. and have to eat extra meals
to keep up my strength" l went at
him with fact and physiology. At
length he was convinced, and prom
ised me that he would follow my
prescription, which was this: Take
but two meals day. In
Is days his faintness had dissap-
peared and he rapidly recove red.
To-day he is healthy, active man,
and a warm advocate Of two meals
day, and moderate ones.--Ex.

Few people remember that Lafay-
cite received for his services i'll
America q sum Of money which,
whether adequate o. not, was OF
very comfortable proportions. A
reminder Of this fact has just been
discovered in the Treasury Depart.
ment at Washington, it being the
warrant issued in 1925 by William
A. Crawford. the Secretary OF the
treasury, authorizing Thomas Tu-
dor Tucker, the Treasurer. Ito pay
to Gen. Lafayette, or order, 5000,
600 being the amount allowed him
in consideration Of bis services and
sacrifices in the War Of tine Revo-
luton, pursuant to an act Of Con-
gress concerning him, approved
28th of December, 1924. sgreeably
to a certificate Of the Comptroller
OF the Treasury, dated Jan. 8, 1925,
recorded by the register, copy
whereof is fled in my Office" TIE

faded, but j. is still leaib.e, and on

the cheers ana other evidences OF
public gratitude which had long
been denied him at home.

Volume Twenty-Three.

With this issue we open Volume
Twenty Three of the FARMER, the
paper having been under the pres
ent management for the past nine
teen years. During that time many
changes have taken place, and signs
of improvement and progress are
visible on all sides. As in the
past, the FARMER will continue t.
champion the cause of Democracy
and good government. and labor
for the welfare and improvement
Of our town, parish and State.
That our humble efforts in the
past have been appreciated is shown
by our largely increased subscrip'
ton list, and We shall labor to de-
serve and receive a still greater
patronage, by advocating such
measures as we believe will result,
in benefit to the whole people.
With these few remarks we will
proceed with the new volume, hop.
ing that the succeeding pages
will record still greater advances
all along the line.

SIZE OF THE TICKET.

The official ballot to be voted in
the election to be held on Tuesday,
January IL, will be the longest ever
printed in Louisiana. It will be
forty-four inches long bout twice
the length of that printed for use in
the presidential election last year.
On the ballot will be printed the
thirty-six delegates-at-large of the
Democratic, Republican and Popu-
list parties, and the candidates to
be voted for from the Representa-
tive Districts. Also the proposition
"for" or against" the convention.
AZ the law requires that . blank
space shall be left under the name
OF each candidate for any Office. it
becomes necessary to cut the paper
on which the tickets will be printed
forty -fous iuches In length. In this
connection it may be stated that
it will be much easier to vote
against tie convention than
"for" it. Those who are opposed
to the convention of course take no
interest in the election Of delegates,
and it is presumed will not vote for
any of the candidates. On the
other hand, those who favor holding
the convention will feel some con-
Germ in the delegates who will frame
the organic law, and who will there
fore, in all representative districts,
mark their ballots as often as
thirty-eight times, making thirty
six impressions Of the stamp on the
margin Of the ballot opposite the
names of the candidates-at-larRe,
one for the proposition to hold the
convention and one for the candi-
date for the convention from the
Representative District.

Christmas Trees.

On Friday night, Dec. "a, an
enjoyable entertainment and Christ
mas tree was given at the Town

of Covington Academy. The stage

ornamented with neat purple cur
tain at the top, with letters in gold

sidering the inclement weather, and
the pupils acquitted themselves in

Keeping Warm In Alaska

The Esquimaux Of the Yukon re-
gion have mastered the art Of keep
ing warm with little or no fire. They
can live when the thermometer is 1T
60 degrees below zero with no other
heat than that given BY . single
lamp, reinforced by that Of their
own bodies.
The lamp is lighted and set in
the middle Of the hut, SO low that
no one can stand upright in it.
Arouud the side OF the hut is .

and covered thickly with furs. On
this shelf the Indians lie in their

We present i'll this issue of the
FARMER, for the benefit of the
voters, portrait and short sketch
of Mr.. Thos. O'Connor, Jr., the
nominee Of the business aud farm
ing interests of st. Tammany
Parish, as delegate to the Consti-
tutional Convention, they feeling
secure that their interests will be
best subserved by his election, and
they ask of every voter who has
the interest Of the parish at heart,
who believes in education, good
roads and the general prosperity
of the parish, to cast q ballot for
their nominee.
Mr.. O'Connor is identified with
the parish, his every interest is
here, and the confidence repoesd IN
him by our merchants aud planters
is very flattering and assures his
election.
Mr.. O'Connor resides at Oak
Glen, On the Columbia Road, FIVE
miles from Covington, in the Sec
ton known as the Garden District,
noted for its delightful entertain
ments and open-handed hospitality.
Since his residence there, he has
built and equipped a schoolhouse,
Garden District School, and dona-
ted the land for educational pur-
poses. He has also been instru-
mental in securing a range line road,
badly needed in that section, and
in having it cleared and open to
the public, without its having cost
the parish a cent, and in recogni-
ton of his services he was made
overseer of the same.
Mr.. O'Connor was educated in
the public schools, and OIL leaving
school went into the foundry and
machine business, where by close
duplication to his labors, gradually
worked himself up to responsible
positions, having been manager Of
the Reynolds Iron Works, one Of
the largest of its kind in the South.
He is at present manager of the
foundry and machine shop of the
ii. l.. O'Connor Arch Iron Works,
the firm who held the contract for
the iron work ON the new Court
house in this parish.
In his election, the citizens can
feel justly proud of delegate who
will be ever watchful, and one
on whom they can rely to safeguard
their interests. Those who know
him personally, recognize his worth
and ability as worker, but for
those who have not met him, we
can assure them that Thomas
lO'Connor is a gentleman in. the
truest sense of the word.

was a string of Christmas bells,
containing the letters "Merry
Xmas" The entertainment con-
sisted of cantata, in which Santa
Claus called the fairies to his aid
in supplying Christmas presents
for the children. A miniature
chimney was built ON the stage,
the bricks being composed of card
board boxes, and each contained a
gift to the children. The scenery,
especially the cabin fireplace and
Santa Claus Den, were works Of
art, and met with universal admit
ration. Santa Claus was present,
and at the close of the cantata, dis
tributed the gifts to the children.
The pastor, superintendent and
teachers were also remembered,
and a number in the audience re-
ceived presents. The entire affair
was most enjoyable. from beginning
to end, and at the close all depart
ed we'll pleased with the events of
the evening.
