There are always number q self-con-
ceited wind TANNERS thirsting for notoriety
who never let an opportunity pass to bonn
bard defenseless audience. The Confed-
crate Reunion in Memphis was several
times afflicted in this manner. The weather
was hot and the delegates were uncomfort-
ably crowded and called for the dispatch
of business, but the wind'jammer was
there to be seen, heard and ''get his name
in the papers, and he was undaunted and
would not be called down-suffering hu'
manity had no rights that the unhampered
wind TANNER would respect. Referring
to this imposition, the Louisville Times
says: ''The last days session of that re-
union was marred by the mouthings of a
Mississippi politician who misrepresented
the South, disguised his audience, and, so
far as it was possible, thoroughly discred'
tied himself

Gen. Evans Reelected.
New Orleaus Times-De mocrat.

New Orleaus Times-De mocrat
The reelection of General Clement A.
Evans as Commander in Chief of the United
Confederate Veterans will meet, we are
sure, with the hearty approval of the entire
South. Gen. Evans attempted declination
of the honor was prompted by the noblest
motives, but he bowed loyalty to the will of
his comrades when they voiced by their
ballots the general desire for his leadership,
and expressed his willingness to serve.
The veterans organization is to be con-
graduated upon the outcome, and the dis
tinguished Georgian, by his obedience to
the expressed will of the convention, has
demonstrated anew his possession of a
quality that goes to make the great and
successful leader of men.
Service in the exalted post to which he
has just been reelected is purely labor
of love, but its responsibilities are never
theless very great. Its occupant Yields a
wide influence, his counsels are eagerly
sought and his example is valuable in
many ways. The great Confederate COM
manders, in all the walks Of civil life, have
rendered splendid service to the country as
we'll as to the South. The wisdom, patriot
ism and incorruptibility of the "Confeder-
ate Brigadiers" who have served since the
war in the National Legislature have been
frequently and appreciately commented
upon by the American press of all sections.
The Commander in Chief of the veterans
organization renders service no less useful
in other lines, and it is important that he
shall typify the noblest and best sentiments
and principles, in the broadcast sense, Of
the cause which he represents. Gen.
Evans is of full stature. the worthy success
sor of the blameless and chivalric leaders
who preceded him in the post. He enjoys
the complete confidence of the nation, as
he possesses the love of his comrades, and
of the Southern people. His reelection
accords with the precedent established by
the organization and is on all accounts to
be applauded.

FALSE PRETENSIONS.

In one of his essays Herbert Spencer says
something to the effect that not until a man
is prepared to say 81 don't know is he
ready to learn anything. Some people are
under great temptation to become pretend
ers to knowledge they do not possess, for
they dislike to expose their ignorance and
see no great harm in the pretense. This
often occurs also through sort of bump
tious envy which foolishly arrays Incidence
orincompetence against experience. Every
one should, however, carefully avoid false
pretentions of any kind not only because
of the initial wrong, but because Of posi-
BILE consequences of any deception. Hav-
ing acquired false reputation, one is, in a
measure, forced to sustain it, and little
false pretention at the outset may grow into
life of deception. 1t is better to frankly
say 81 dont't know than to pretend to
know when in ignorance. Yet the majority
of people indulge in false pretenses re-
specting their ancestry, their connections,
their reading and other matters and things
from which they may be supposed to de-
rive reflected honor. They may not make
any false assertions on the subject, but
they allow it to be understood that they are
connected with a family with whom they
have no relation or that they have read
certain standard authors whom they know
only by reputation. Few cultivated people
acknowledge that they have never read
Millions Paradise LOST but there are
fewer yet who have in fact read that great
poem. Everybody is supposed to have read
Shakespeare, but even among Literary men
and women there are very few who are at
all familiar with his plays and some know
nothing of them except what they have
CLEANED from theatrical representations.
Yet hardly any one can be brought to
make this this admission. There are
great many pretenders in what is called
society but the fact is so well understood
that their pretenses do little harm. Never
theless, it would be better for the young
man and young woman to determine at the
The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1909-06-17

outset to be frank and honest and to obtain
nothing under false pretenses-honors or
attention no more than money. 1t is quite
certain that this frankness leads to advance
ment. The way to avoid the disagreeaoie
duty of saying 81 don't know is to learn
something, and thus frankness in this par
ticular leads to study and effort to improve
ones self. When one has had to confess
that he has never read "Hamlet" he goes
home and reads ''Hamlet,'' that he may
not be caught that way again. The easy
way of pretending to have knowledge one
does not possess does not incite to study,
but, on the contrary, encourages lazy pre-
tentions. They should be avoided by all
who desire to fairly earn whatever 7uta-
tstion or honor they are to acquire.

THE CONFEDERATE REUNION.

The nineteenth annual reunion OF the
United Confederate Veterans was held at
Memphis on Tuesday, Wednesday ana
Thursday of last week. From far ana
near the men who fought in the Conted-
crate armies gathered to meet their OLD
comrades and to again march under their
glorious old gatherings.
The Southern soldiers fought glorlousiy
in the War Between the States, and they
made a record for chivalry and PATRIOTISM
of which they are justly proud.
The scenes during the parade last Thurs
day were remarkably pathetic and .beautl-
full. ITO the past go more dead faces
every year" The aged appearance OF
many Of the survivors gives unmistakable
signs that they will positively not again De
present at Confederate Reunion on this
side of the river, but before another one
comes they will have gone over and De
resting in the shade. Life, with its smiles
and tears-its battles and its conflicts
with its scenes of carnage and bloodshed
and its lone picket duty on the solitary
midnight outpost; with it's time OF war
and it's time of peace; with all OF its at
tendant cares and successes and disap-
pointments, must ere long fade, and to
them the bugle notes of heaven will sound
the last grand reveille calling them to the
parade grounds on high for the last grand
inspection, for the last grand reunion and
the last grand roll-call.
''The thin gray line!' These were the
men who were at First Manassas to APP
pomattox, from Shiloh to Durham, N. c.,
April 26, 1865, and from many other battle
fields throughout the Southern Confed-
eracy, and to see them marching shoulder
tc shoulder, as they did in the days when
shot and shell thinned their ranks, was an
inspiring spectacle.
1t was a glorious procession, and to have
seen it was sight and pleasure never to
be forgotten.
The war has been over so long that only
a minority can personally remember it..
The days of reconstruction and robbery
are also over. Forty-four years ago the
South was crushed, helpless, bleeding.
The ravages of war had left it PROSTATE.
The Confederate soldier returned from a
four years struggle in the field to find his
houses and fences and stock, and all species
of property but his land, gone. He had
to build from the ground up. With a
heroism equal to that displayed in war,
and there was never greater, he went to
work to restore the waste places, to earn a
living for himself and family-and bravely
he faced the new conditions. How we'll he
did his work only the student of history or
the personal observer can know. He
brought order out of chaos, he asserted
the white mans inherent qualities and de-
monstrated the truth of the declaration
that blood will tell. His is proud record
and only the ignorant or the thoughtless
will fail to honor him anywhere and every
where. What he did and what he was is
glorious heritage of the South.

When the reunion resumed its session on
Wednesday morning, the commander said
it was meet and fit that due acknowledge
ment should be made to the God Of our
fathers for his wonderful goodness and
mercy-and asked that all would stand and
join in singing the long meter ''Doxology,"
"Praise God from Whom All Blessings
Flow" and led by the old commander, who
is minister of the Methodist Church, the
whole audience rose and sang the grand
old melody. Then followed prayer of deep
earnestness by gray haired veteran, con-
Guiding with that greatest of all prayers,
the one prescribed by the Divine Teacher,
and as the voices of the thousands Of gray
haired men blended in the sublime utter
ance of the Lords Prayer with evident
heartfelt earnestness, the scene was most
touching.
1t looked and sounded as if they felt that
they were drawing near to where the divine
hand must be their stay and the unfailing
promises of the Father their hope and
comfort.
A little later an attractive young woman,
with sweet, appealing voice, stepped to
the front, among the ''Stars and Bars"
and began to sing to the tune, "The Old
Time Religion ''I'm an Old Time Con-
federate-It's Good Enough for Me-" and
the old boys shouted. She was joined in
the chorus by bevy of beautiful girls in
haired men in front of her, and whenever
she said, with coquettish toss of her head
and blending of pathos and joy in her
voice, ''I'm glad live in Dixie the old
boys fairly yelled, and thousands shed
tears as they sang. Hard must have been
the heart the song did not touch.

THE STATE PRESS,

Vermilion News: The present Republic
can Congress will go down in history as
the most corrupt body that ever plundered
the people.
Assumption Pioneer: OF course, the
hot weather is being talked about awfully,
but it is better to say mean things about
the weather than about your neighbor.
Shreveport Caucasian: There was de-
veloped at the Memphis Reunion a political
feature which should have been eliminated
unceremoniously. The Reunion of Con-
federate Veterans is no place for political
oratory.
Lake Charles American: We have had
all sorts of explanations, admonitions and
bulletins from the chairman and secretary
Of the Game Commission, but none of them
have answered the following question that
the country papers are asking: Why
should the people of Louisiana pay you
two S27,15 every working day of the year,
and what do you do to earn the money?
New Orleans States: The most beautiful
meetings that we have in all this land are
these annual reunions of the South's cher
ished heroes, They are object lessons to
our children who should be taught to un-
derstand and appreciate while they yet
have the opportunity, the privilege which
is theirs, of honoring men whose fame will
grow as time advances, and whose deeds Of
valor will challenge increasing admiration
while the generations of men come and go.
There will be sadness mixed with joy
among those who are fortunate enough to
attend the Memphis Heunioa-sadness for
the familiar faces that are missing, joy at
the pleasure of meeting so many who yet
linger on the shore of Time. But out of it
all will come grand lesson Of chivalry,
of loyalty, of sacrifice-of faithfulness to
the end, which will make their impress
upon the heart of the South and shed their
solemn benedictions over devoted land.
Vermilion News: There il considerable
opposition among the newspapers of the
State to what is known as the Game Law.
Instead of protecting game it seems that
the principal object is to preserve" high
salaried officials. The work of the attorney
of the Board should be done by the Attor-
ney General of the State, and there is little
use for the Board, and none for its clerks,
and office furniture, One of the papers
says: eff the law had been differently
framed it would have been more effective
and saved all the salaries now paid. There
are sixty wardens and one attorney whose
salaries aggregate $1,000. This sum
would have been saved to the State, and
the law made more effective by making the
magistrates and constables of each ward
the Game Wardens and allowing them half
the fines for their services. Then, there
would have been two men in each ward in
each parish watching for offenders and
paid from their fines This would make
them more diligent and would give the
State that S57 800 together with half the
fines collected"
