CORN DISPLAY
Will Be Removed from New Orleans to
Baton Rouge.

The Picayune's Baton Rouge special
says: The splendid corn agricultural
display now made by the State in New
Orleans, raised as a result of the work
of the boys corn clubs in the different
parishes, will be brought to Baton Rouge
January I, and kept on display here until
about the last of that month.
This corn will be used in the short
term agricultural course to be given by
the university to the farmers of the
State. This term begins January Q and
ends on the Goth.
After this course is over the corn will
be carefully gone over, and the very pink
of it will be formed into an exhibit anC
taken through the Northern States fol-
display to show the people of the NORTH
what can be done in contrasting il
Louisiana
The exhibit is now in charge of r. c
Howell, assistant in the agricultural ex
tension work, who has the exhibit il
New Orleans, where it is attracting con
siderable attention. The display, whet
it is taken North, will be the first of it!

RED RIVER BRIDGE
1t Should Be Declared to Be Free oil
Toll.

A conference was held a few days
since at the city hall between represent
tative citizens of Bossier parish and of
ficials of the city of Shreveport, The
conference was over the Red river
bridge, but was not fruitful of results
1t may be said that it was not satisfac-
tory in the sense that no conclusion
could be reached as to progress over the
proposed construction of bridge which
is to be Independent of the Vicksburg,
Shreveport and Pacific bridge.
The importance of the proposed new
bridge could not be estimated, but
seemingly those who should be most
vitality interested have been apparently
the most Indifferent
As is we'll known to the readers Of the
Caucasian, the proposed bridge across
the Red river has been discussed and re
viewed in all its phases, and it were a
waste Of time and space TO repeat what
has been said.
In brief, if the people Of Bossier do
not favor the construction of new
bridge, so be it, but in all fairness the
people who cross over the Vicksburg,
Shreveport and Pacific on foot, horse or
vehicles, should be relieved of tolls.
The crossing over the Vicksburg,
Shreveport and Pacific should have been
free many years since and should now
be declared to be free.

LUCKY BOB'S
INSPIRATION.
How a Light In a Window Caused
a Villains Downfall.
BY HOWARD FIELDING.

eCspyrisht, 1918, by American Press Asso-
eiation.l
His name was Robert Bryce. He
was an attorney. and the law Of pat
snts was the field wherein he reaped
an excellent harvest of fees. His
friends called him Lucky Bob
A man would naturally prefer to
have his successes credited to his abil-
ity rather than to his luck, yet 1t was
not for this reason that Bryce disliked
his nickname. It offended him because
II was lie. The fates had done him
an i'll turn. and all their favors we're
but mockeries.
Three years ago, when Bryce was
twenty-six, he met Martin l.. Randall,
who paid him well for a small profess
sional service. The money came just
in the nick of time, for Bryce was
struggling hard to get f0othold in in
dependent practice. Randall was Il
rich man. He had manufacturing inter
ests of various kinds, involving the use
of patented machinery and the making
of patented articles. He took a fancy
to Bryce, intrusted him with important
affairs, kept him in funds, advised him
in the investment of his surplus, in
vited him to his home.
Friendship sprang up between the
men despite the great difference in
their years. They were constantly
seen together. 1t was current talk that
Bryces fortune was made, and his col
lege nickname, Lucky Bob, was heard
again on the lips of his associates.
On his first visit to Randall's home
Bryce dined with the family, only one
of whom had drop of blood in com
mon with Randall. This was his sis
ter, widow and childless. The others
were Mrs. Loring and her daughter
Amy and young man named Ballard
! Dillon. Randall had been a cavalry
officer In the civil war and in those
days capable of romantic friendships.
Mrs. Loring was the widow Of COM
rade In arms. Dillon was the son of
another. The lady had been left with
some small means in trust with Ran
dali. Dillon was penniless orphan
who had fallen into the lap of luxury.
Amy Loring was not yet eighteen
when Bryce first saw her. She
seemed to bim very pretty and well
bred girl and nothing more.
The first warning that Bryce re-
ceived came from Randall at the
house one evening. Amy and Dillon
happened to be standing together in a
good light and accidentally posed with
some artistic value.
"a handsome couple" said Randall,
who was an admirer of personal beau
ty, like most other people who have
been blessed with share of 1t.
1t was not long after this that Ran
dali conveyed to Bryce definitely the
intelligence that Amy and Dillon were
intended for each other. Increasing
misery was Bryces portion from that
hour. and the word lucky" coupled
| With his name was bitter mockery.
There may be many reasons why a
woman should not marry man though
she loves him. There is no reason
why she should marry him If she

loves him not. All debts are Cancelled,
all gratitude vanishes. the wisdom of
wise counselors is folly. the dictates
of worldly prudence are as rash as
madness, If they urge toward marriage
without love.
Such was Bryce's philosophy, and
you may imagine his feelings at the
spectacle presented in Randalls home
Mrs. Ioring and Randall were erea-
lures of Interchangeable decision. They
had decided upon this marriage long
ago. The idea of it had grown into
their bones. AS for Amy, she had
known Dillon since her childhood and
had liked him and disliked him and
quarreled with him and made it up.
The girl exerted a strong attraction
upon Dillon. and there were moments
when he fancied himself deeply i'll
love with her. These were the mo-
ments of encouragement when he
seemed TO see a way out of the trout
bles into which he had fallen of late
years through course of elaborate
duplicity and secret extravagance
Fer the most part he had too many
worries to think Of love. His pillow
was not haunted by images of beauty
He saw Shylocks and shysters and the
wolfish faces Of third rate Wall street
brokers, and even the helmeted po-
liceman and grim visaged jailer fig
