The Shreveport Caucasian re-
marks "Some newspapers in
Louisiana in which are being pub
lished the proposed amendments
to the constitution have shifted
or revised their original views of
public questions. !" What the eau
casian says may be true in a few
instances, but nothing of the kind
has come under the American 3
observation. On the contrary,
many of the newspapers which are
publishing the amendments are
fighting strenuously against the
adoption of the school bond issue,
notably the New Orleans Picayune,
the Donaldsonville Chief, the
Alexandria Democrat and others.
1t is unjust and ungenerous to inti-
mate either that the newspapers Of
the state would sell their opinions
for 5000 worth of advertising or
that the state officers would at.
tempt TO buy them. There are just

isiana who have influence for sale as
could be found anywhere, and the

r. BUSINESS MAN, that
the money spent for adver-
tising is an investment, and
J not an expense? Are you


aware that no new article, or one un-
known could be successfully put upon
the market without Printers Ink or
some method of advertising it,
Did you ever think that the house
wife is more economical than the men
and that they read the papers for
bargains that are advertised therein?
If you have anything new to offer, or
any speciality you would like to in
troduce to this community, or if you
can do better by customers thanyour
rivals, why not tell the ladies of New
Iberia all about it in the columns Of
the ENTERPRISE. Don't expect
to catch the eye Of the prospective
customer, by one insertion of your
ad, but keep it constantly before the
reading public and ultimately you will
get the people coming your way, to
be increased as you persevere. For
every customer you secure you will
more than likely secure another
through her influence She will tell
her associates, and thus the news
will spread that you have the best
goods, the most reasonable prices,
the best treatment of patrons. Don't
wait to do this, but now is the time,
and keep doing it till your fortune 10
made and you retire to enjoy the
fruits of your sagacity and business
acumen.

God set him free. Despite the
pleadings of his aged parents, who
wished him to remain at home. the
young man determined to go as a mis-
sionary to Ireland, and was prepared
for priesthood. He officiated for sew
eral years in various parts Of southern
Europe until the year 431, when he
was recommended, to Pope Celestine as
a suitable missionary to send to Ire

and Patrick was consecrated bishop

CHOICE HISTORY REVIEWED
Good Crowd Attends Catholic
Hall to Hear Orator and
Musical Program Pre-
pared by Ladies.

st. Patrick's day was fittingly cele-
brated at st. Mary's hall last evening
when large number of persons as
sembled to hear an excellent musical
program and the address of Hon,
Frank Davey, Of Portland. Among the
audience were many Catholics
who found Mr.. Davey's address Of un-
usual historical interest and who
learned much of a man whose name
had been to them only the basis of
a laugh.
The first number on the musical pro-
gram was an instrumental duet by lit
tie Miss Seltenreich and Miss Gertrude
Kearney, with violin and piano Miss
Seltenreich Is but years OF age and
her performance was remarkable. Miss
Kathryn Shively rendered "rn Take
You Back Again. Kathleen" in her
usual pleasing manner and responded
to a hearty encore. Mr.. ]. C. McCue
rendered Killarney" which was one
Of the musical gems of the evening.
Mfr. F. Deveney sang Rose McNally,' -
and later took Part in a duet with his
brother. Miss Madge Sovey sang
Spring Song" and responded to ar
encore with Down by the Brook" AL
of the musical numbers were very
much appreciated.
Mr.. Davey's address was in part a.
follows:

other person in the history of the hu
