The southern sentinel. (Winnfield, La.) 1883-1910, 1907-12-20

1t would seem that some other
more useful and instructive
present might be given boys
than toy pistols and air guns.
That they are productive of
mischief is amply proven. In the
exub rance of their possession
they are handled carelessly and
pointed unthoughtedly ut some
companion or passer by without
the least intention of doing harm.
Even if they are not dangerous,
still piece of exploded cap or
the tiny missile of the air gun is
apt to do an irrevocable injury.
The wisdom of such presents is
strongly doubted. Outside of the
propensity it creates to carry and
use gun, is the encourage
ment of such a habit. These
remarks are elected by having
had several of these toy weapons
snapped in the face too danger
ously near the eyes to prove very
comfortable. OF course the little
boys meant no BARN, but desired
to startle the pedestrian. and
enjoy the possession of the
weapon. There are more de-
sirable gifts than these tiny rep
resentatives of the more deadly
and too often used real weapon.

its doors tn the public Monday.
The event was made the occasion
OF an invitatian from one OF the

Among these guests were the
editorial heads of the several
journals of Winfield.
The genial proprietor ushered
his guests into the dining room
in person. The room with its
beautiful finish and appointments
was bright with the sunlight
through the spacious windows.
Tables that comfortably seat four
guests were scattered through
the spacious dining room. The
tables with thei, snow white
damask CO, erings and ornamented
with new appointments of glass
and dishes wore a most inviting
aspect.
The dinner was varied i'm its
viands,-sOlid. substantial, in
viting and elegantly prepared.
These were supplemented with
pastry. cakes. preserves and
fruit. capped with a cup of
elegant coffee.
That the guests appreciated the
compliment rendered as we'll as
the elegant viands to please the
inner man, goes without further
eulogy.
The bright sunbeams of the
winter day, the attractive sur
roundings of the roomy dining
hall, the bountiful and well
served viands were well calculated
to give most pleasurable men,
cries to those who enjoyed the
hospitality of "mine host, and

line of the betterment of their

When public sentiment crystalizes
to the extent of becoming imper-
alive. it usually energies the victor.
Herein lies the power of this free
government. Some intelligent
and far-seeing politician may pres
ent for enactment. the demand for
some reform. but that does not
entitle him to the credit of having
originated it. The voice of the
people was the power thot spurred
him into action. and they alone
are the authors of its existence.
Men who seek official position
know full well that they cannot
achieve success in their ambition,
unless they first take the people
into their confidence by espousing
those measures and needs that
public opinion demand. Louis

concessions by the legislators to

rise 10 the usual assumptions of par

amongst the active socks in showing
any notable strength, and their ad-

the general market TO help realizing
sales in other stocks. Those stocks
yielded with the rest of the market

ed that the deposit of the custom col

this has been the principal source Of
the recent heavy cash gains of the
banks.
The suggestion found a place in the
days discussion that the eastern
railroad systems would have to meet
at an early date demands from N
ployees for increase in wages similar
to those which have been adjusted
this week amongst western rail-
roads. The principal factors in the
days reaction, however, was the de-
sire to realize profits on the consider
able advance Of the week, which was
heightened by an opinion in some
quarters that the recovery was go
