Eat sea0 IKE CANDY


An egg promoting company of
Ohio has been running off and on
for 20 years under different names,
its latest line being food for the
production of fresh laid, ready
colored Easter eggs. But this is
not nearly SO good trick as the
promoters turned some fifteen years
ago when they advertised royal
ruffed Brahma eggs at $12 dozen
aud signed contract to take all
the chicks the owners wohld part
with at $3.50 each when they were
six weeks old. Shrewd housewives
bought freely and received hard
boiled eggs for their money. The
company did not violate their con-
tract to buy all the surplus chicks.
However, the hens "set" them
selves to death before they were
Matched. When a new chicken
scheme is sprung in this town the
P. O. Department will be justified
in dispatching an inspector to watch
developments.

There is a new scheme in the
United States senate. 1t consists
of sending to each senator a private
note informing him whenever the
senate unanimously agrees to take
a vote on any bill at certain hour.
This enables every senator to be on
hand when a vote is to be taken.
In the senate, as is perhaps well
known, a final vote cannot be taken
on any measure until everybody
consents. 1t is not so generally
known that these unanimous con-
sent agreements are rs binding as
the laws of the Modes and Persians.
The senator who would attempt to
disregard them, even upon the most
plausible pretext, would instantly
lose caste with his colleagues.

Every Town Has A Chance

1t lies within the sphere of every
municipality to have a successfui
hustling business town or settlement
where people merely exist. There Is
no section in the South but is bless
ed with some great natural resources
which would, if properly apprecla-
ed and developed, bring fame and
wealth to the surrounding cities and
towns. The South is far more
blessed in this respect than any
section of the entire United States.
The great staples and commodities
which are produced and found in
the Southern soil serve as the fly
wheel of the greatest manufactur-
ing centers of the Northern and
New England States. With the
many opportunities which exist on
all sides it is a mystery that so
many Southern towns, and espec-
tally Louisiana towns, remain in a
Rip Van Wrinkle state.
The development of Southwest
Louisiana is looked upon as wonder
full when compared with the rich
parishes of sugar, cotton and lum-
Der districts of the State. But it
is not to be wondered at. 1t is only
to be expected. When progressive
men determined to devote their
energies to the development Of this
country began their labors they
went down in their pockets for
money to pay for advertising it.
They invested in all concerns which
served as public benefactors.
They have all pulled together ever
since, preaching, praying and sing
ing praises for their country.
Every town has a chance to 60
forward, but it will not progress
one step unless the business men
show their confidence by investing
money in institutions which help to
develop the resources of the sur
rounding territory.-Sigmal.

Deficient PROVISIONS FOR EDUCA'
TON.

The insufficient provision for pub
lie education in the primary branch
es is not alone felt in Louisiana, a
fact which has been most graph
cally shown in a statement by the
Louisiana State Treasurer; nor IS
this deficiency confined to cities ad-
iacent to New Orleans. 1t is expe-
rienced in other States and other
cities as we'll.
From a message by Mayor Low
to the Board of Aldermen OF New
York city, it is learned that the me-
tropolis will spend this year Sl9,-
263,O on its public schools, in ad-
dition to nearly half million dol
lars for the maintenance Of its Nor
NAL College and the College OF the
City of.New York, and yet Mayor
Low says that $lO,OOO,OOO are ur-
gently needed to-day for the new
school sites and school buildings,
aud he believes that this should be
the first claim upon the resources
of the city.
The conditions in New York are
only mentioned for the purpose OF
showing{that we in Louisiana and
New Orleans are not alone deficient
in school accommodations; never
theless, we ought to do all in orr
power to remedy our Deficiencies IN
educational provisions, by striving,
above all other considerations, for
the instruction Of the rising and
future generations in the primary
elements of an education. IL the
State will teach all it's people to
read and write and cipher, so that
they will not only be able to carry
on their business to advantage, but
will be able to vote intelligently, IT
will be doing better and greater
work for them and for the State
than if it were to give every soul OF
them college education. The IL
literacy among the white and black
population Of the State is the great
est blot upon it. Let there be a
grand effort to redeem Louisiana
from such disgrace, if it cost even
the Limitation of the public high
schools and colleges to their pres
ent status.
