structien of a Catholic church, which

The organization of an incorpor-
ated mercantile company has just
been completed. with a capital stock
of $4,000, and by the time the fall
season comes in, with its abundance
of rice, cotton, corn, and produce,
which Mamou Prairie, wish its fertile
fields, and its canals of water, always
produce, there seems to be NO doubt
but what the farmers will find a buy
er for their products, and be able to
buy what they want in return, with
out going to other markets.
Besides the organization of the
mercantile company just mentioned
the Vidrine Mercantile company, one
Of the largest in this section Of the
country, and who are now domiciled
in the nighborhaod of Vile Platte,
will move here this summer, and lie
ready to help take care Of the fail
business. BY that time the new
bank which has been organized, with
a capital stock If $4,000, will be In
operation.
One year ago Mamou was simply
a fertile rice plantation, which had
been cut up into squares, and today

AT THE Y. M. C. A.

During the past week the officers of
the Y. NJ. c. A. have been rather busy
placing the building in order. The
main hall, the office, the parlors and
the tunnel" leading to the gymna-
SUM stairs have been repapered. The
work Of hanging the paper was done
by Physical Director c. E. Gilman and
it adds greatly to the appearance of
the building The floors were all oiled,
the counter vanished, and everything
else was cleaned. The building looks
new and bright now and is in fine
shape with the exception of the IAN
tique" furniture which has been in use
practically since the building was
built. The officers of the association
are to be commended for their labors
and should be rewarded for it. They
would like nothing better than to have
some friend or friends donate some
more wooden furniture for the use of
the association, All of the chairs and
tables in the reading room have been
somewhat battered by the rough usage
by members of the association. At
present there is no table for the par
lors, and the place looks rather bare.
Last night invitations were sent to
$50 members of the Y NJ C. A for the
first annual gymnasium mems banquet
to be held at the association THURSDAY
evening, April 81. The banquet is to
be served at $50 and it is expected
that at least $50 will be present The

gymnasium or the auditorium Dana
