As some claim the aspen was tho

weeping willow for the tree upon
which Judas hanged himself.
There is an old legend as sinister
as the fatalistlc Dedipus myth that
claims that before tho birth of Judas
his mother dreamed that her child
would murder his father and betray
his God for money. To prevent this
tragedy. the babe was put In a chest

WHY DELAY?

The high insurance rates pre-.
vailing in this city are not justi-
fed, but Notwithstanding that
they will con tinue to remain high
and insurers will continue to
pay the exorbitant rates unless
some action is taken. One of
the necessary things to be done
to get a reduction is to install an
electric fire alarm system APP
proved by the Louisiana Fire
Prevention Bureau. This should
be done at the earliest possible
moment both to save money to
insurers and because of the adj
ditional safety it will give to those
who are not insured and to those
who can not afford to insure ade-
quately.
The longer the meter is de.
layed, the longer the property
owners have got to pay the high
rates and the longer we lose the
protection a fire alarm system
will give US. Then why delay?

CEMENT WALKS.

On petitions submitted the
City Council at it's meetings
Monday and Tuesday evenings
ordered four new cement
walks. These walks will add
greatly to the desirability of
those section to which they lead
and make them considerably
more valuable for residence pur-
poses.
Cement walks are somewhat
costly in the putting down, but
in the long run are very much
cheaper than plank and many
times more agreeable and salts
factory.
The property owners putting
down cement walks are allowed
five years to pay for them, only
one fifth to be paid on the com
pletion of the walk. This makes
it easy to paw for them, and is an
encouragement to everybody to
improve his property with a fine
and lasting sidewalk.
No doubt with such favorable
terms quite a number of other
property owners will follow the
example set and ask for cement
walks also.

Another Opportunity.

As will be observed by the ad.
vertiselpent in this issue, the Ma
moAa esite Co., Ltd, will afford
the another opportunity to
purchase lots in the now rapidly
growing town of Mamou. The sale
is scheduled to take place on Thurs
day, Jan. 18th, and it is confidently
expected that a large crowd will,
attend.
There are some features of this
sale that were not offered to the public
at the last sale. A free train will
leave Opelousas over the Frisco at
800 a. p Ind upon arrival at Eunice
free tra4s Dortation will be furnished
to Mamou over the Rock Island.
Besides, another attractive feature
Of this sale is that there will be given
sway two choice lots in the twonsite.
Every person attending the sale,
whether a purchase is made or not,
will be entitled to receive a ticket in
the drawing, and, of course much
interest will attach to the result.
The future of Mamou can no longer
be questioned, whether 1t eventually
becomes a parish seat or not. Mr..
G. c. Duson, with all of his wisdom
and experience, could not have Sc
lected q more attractive or substan-
tial location for q tOwnsite. With
two railroads trayersing the town,
one on the east and one on the west,
the Schell canal in close proximity,
and 3 section full Of natural resour-
csssthe selection at onceb becomes ideal.
We are requested to announce that

STRIKE OR PEACE

SCRANTON, Pa, March 23.-Whether
t1ere is to be a strike by the anthracite
coal miners, a lockout by the operators,

The convention opened without d pre-
arranged program President Lewis did
not even hold a conference with the
district leaders Monday night. Every

Miners declared the operators would

HAVE LITTLE HOPES
FOR CONSERVATION
Advocates of Policy Are Not
Pleased With Attitude of
COmunitfeA Members
Committee Members.

Supporters of the conservation policy
are not particularly well pleased over
the way in which the new Senate Com
mittee on Conservation of Natural Re
sources has been made up They object
because too many Senators who are re-
garded as out Of sympathy with the
conservation Of natural resources have
been put on the committee.
Under the circumstances, the friends
of conservation are wondering whether
they are going TO get anything IN the
direction Of conservation accomplished
through the committee or whether they
are in the position of a man who has
been sold a gold brick. They are the
more inclined to be discouraged for the
reason the Conservation Commission as
il was constituted by President Roose-
welt is no longer i'm active operation,
and is being allowed simply 20 drift
for the present in the hope that eVentu-
ally Congress may allow an approprla-
ton for il which Will enable II TO 60
ahead with its work

sought to show that the law had been
