A Pleasant PARTY

A most enjoyable social func-
ton was the entertainment given
Thursday night by Miss Rena
Hopkins to Miss Leila LeROsen.
of Shreveport. Promptly at $50
the exciting game of Milo was
commenced and until the last
game was played peals Of laugh
ter were heard, caused by the
ridiculous mistakes made at
some tables in the great hurry
to get the card before the op-
ponent did.
After fourteen games were
played, it was found that Mr..
Eben Morgan who took the place
of a lady in the game, had won
the lady's prize, ard it was
awarded to him, but he most
gracefully presented it to the
guest of honor. The gentleman's
prize fell to the lot of Mr.. James
Gallery.
After several other enjoyable
games were played, dainty re-
freshnents were served. and
Kisses added to the menu.
Those present were: Misses
Eben Morgan, Leola LeRosen,
Lucille Mouton. Quintilla Morgan,
Bessie Gallery Louise Snodgrass,
Rhena Boudreaux, Claudia Up
ton, Challie Tolson. Messrs.

The City Park Concerts.

The concerts at the city park
by the Sontag Band in connec-
ton with DR.. G. E. Roussey's
moving picture exhibition have
been we'll patronized. The music
of the band was very enjoyable,
as it always is, and DR.. Roussey's
contribution added greatly to the
pleasure of the entertainment.
He has an excellent machine and
succeeds fine in projecting the
pictures on the screen. In adj
dition a number of illustrated
songs are contributed, poses
plastiques introduced and a fas-
cinating ser3entine dance given,
that made the concerts satisfac-
tory and pleasing.

Fine Crops.

During the past week consi-
derable rain has fallen and up to
yesterday the weather was still
unsettled. No bad effect on the
crops, however, so far as we have
been able tO learn, has developed,
though in a few parts of the par
ish, a disposition is being mani
tested by the cotton to shed to
some extent. This is not cOnsid-
cred serious as it is believed that
a week of sunshine will correct
the tendency and restore the
plant to all it's former promise.
As for cane. the wet weather has
simply forced a rapid growth and
in case of late cane been of ex eel
lent benefit. A dry season now
will sweeten the cane and make
it make good" Corn is made
all that Till be made. which is
generally estimated to average
over the parish two-thirds of an
ordinary crop.
