AN ORDINANCE.

Whereas, ON June s, 1909, an election
was held in School District No. in
Ward l, of the Parish of Caddo, State
Of Louisiana, pursuant Go authority of
Act TIA of the Acts of the General AS
seInbfy of the State of Louisiana of che
Year 1902, and duly authorized by the

A DISAPPOINTMENT.

1t appears that the failure of the Po-
lice Jury of DeSoto Parish to provide
means sufficient to carry on the good
roads project, as outlined recently, is a
disappointment to the friends of Gov
ernor Sanders. The State has offered
the convicts and the work was intended
to have progressed Under the direction
of the best engineering skill. The cost
of taking care of the convicts, including
incidental expenses, was to have been
assumed by DeSoto Parish. At its sit
ting in Mansfield a few days since, the
Police Jury as announced authorita-
lively, set aside 2I-4 mills for roads
and bridges, and a 1-2 mills for all other
purposes, which made Io-nill tax in
all, the full limit of the law This was
a disappointment to the good roads adj
vocates, as it provides only about $IIoo
for each road district for road purposes.
which is not much mere than enough
to keep up the bridges in some of the
districts.
There can be no good roads without
money.

FAST TRAVELLING.

How much would you guess does the
eighteen hour train between New York
and Chicago weigh in pounds?
Each train weighs 100000 pounds
Each train carries seyenty-fve pas
sengers, who weigh. ali told, 1880
pounds-that is to say, each train
weighs 100 times as much as its pas
sengerS. And it costs each passenger
49, cents a pound to be transported
from one city to the other.
Why must the train be so heavy?
Simply in order to get sufficient fric
ton on the rails and equilibrium for
the big driving wheels of the locomo-
tives. -
And the faster a train goes the
heavier it must weight it stays on
the track.
The eighteen hour train goes as fast
as it can go with safety using present
equipment, so that il greater speed is
desired there must be a change in
track and trains.
But men are not satisfied to spend
eighteen hours in getting between
New York and Chicago. They want a
quicker way.
A bright idea!
Why not put wings to the train?
And that is just what New York
inventor is working at. The wings he
proposes are formed by aeropianes
made after the style of the Wright
brothers flying machine. The trains
are trolley style. and the aeroPlanes
are above each car.
The lifting power of an aeroplane is
enormous, so that when the car gets
up speed the aeroplane assumes part
of the load The inventor figures when
the train gets to going, say, $50 miles
an hour the train will weigh practical
ly nothing
Whether the New York inventor is
successful or not, it may be safely pre-
dicted that in the near future men will
travel by rail $50 to 200 miles an hour.
Which leads one to ask, Where do
all such modern inventions lead?
Is the world really better because of
the multiplication of appliances for
greater speed in transportation. greater
facility in manufacturing, a larger saw
ing in human labor?
Yes!
Each saving in human labor means
that much leisure for human improve
ment. Every increase in the facilities
for quick transportation and the dis
semination of intelligence means the
bringing of the worlds peoples closer
together and the fostering of human
brotherhood.
There is no call to be frightened at
the progress of material things.
The world of human affairs is not
headed toward some blind thorough
fare.

TEE RLEssINc on WORK.

ing7
Happy you!
You are doing what the Almighty in
tended you should do. You are car
rying out his design in you.
Work makes men.
Idleness mars men. The sloth ex-
lists; he does not live. Labor develops
character. And character determines
destiny and happiness. You cannot
put fiber into a man except by put
ting him up against labor. Therefore
Work is discipline.
He who goes through life without
discipline is not a man. He is only
a thing. He is part man, part en-
bryo. He is the nucleus Of human.
And, while the Christening of discipline
for the time may seem grievous, yet
1t 'tworks out a far more exceeding
right of glory''-manhood.
Work is normal exercise.
The Ioafer is fabby misfit. He
does not blend into the scheme of
things as they are. It matters not
whether he is worth a million or 80
cents. He is wart on the body so
ciaL He is fungus, an excrescence,
without function and void. But the
worker, whatever his work, is part
of society-a necessary part He be-
longs to his race
Work is eontentment.
If you doubt it, stop working for
awhile and note how discomfort comes
to you. Work is mans affinity. The
worker fits into things: the gutter is
out of touch Work is mans natural
expression of himself And no man
Is content who is not expressing him.

commonest way by which a man tries
to fit the responsibility of his wrong

cooking, but where will the drunkard's
