GOOD POLICE JURORS NEEDED.

The following excerpt is from clipping
from the columns of the Crowley Signal,
sent in by one of our Plain Dealing read
ers. He writes in note that the clipping
so nearly expresses his own views that he
could not resist the temptation to submit it
for publication. The whole of it is good,
but the last two paragraphs are particu-
larry timely and for this reason they alone
are given. The paragraph omitted deals
too much in generalities and is perhaps too
free in its distribution of boquets to the
several State candidates. It calls atten-
ton to the merits of no partiular candidate.
1t is quite proper and highly important
that good material be selected for our
police juries and at this time it is not amiss
to call the attention of the voter to that
The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1911-09-21

fact. Let him begin now to cast around
for the proper men for the places. The
two paragraphs referred to follow:
''The real chance for mistake the voters
have to make in this campaign is in the
selection of police jurors. The Governor is
the general manager of the State but the
police jurors are the managers of the par
ishes. They spend the money of the tax
payers, and the manner in which it is
spent depends on the kind of men elected.
On the police jury pepends whether the
public funds shall be spent wisely, SO as to
minimize the burden of taxation. On the
police jury depends whether we shall have
good roads, good bridges, good drainage,
and in large measure whether we shall
have good schools. On the police jury
depends whether we shall be progressive
and modern or back number in the pro-
cession.
"Our delegation in the legislature is
also important, but not as important to the
tax payers as the police jury. We need
honest and able Legislators at Baton Rouge
and Washington, but we need them most
in the police jury room, for there is where
the taxpayers money is spent"

The Great Benefit of Parish Fairs.

Speaking of the great benefits to be de-
rived from parish fairs, the Monroe News
Star says:
The educational value of a good fair-a
real agricultural fair, which has for it's
main purpose the betterment of farming
and stock husbandry-is appreciated by
very few people. The spirit of rivalry and
emulation such fair arouses, the educa-
tional work it does, the opportunities it
gives for social intercourse and wholesome
recreation-all these combine to make it a
thing of positive and tangible benefit to
every farmer who attends.
Two or three times this year we have
advised that you get ready, not only to at
tend your fair, but also to take something
to it for exhibition. You may not get first
prize, you may not get any prize at all,
but if you have an animal or farm prod :
uct of more than usual merit, take it and
let others see what you are doing. A
single head of cabbage or a single potato
which you have reason to believe is of un-
usual quality should be entered. What
ever you have done we'll you have right
to be proud of, and it can do nothing but
good for you to add it to the display of
your fair.
Yes, go to the fairs. Go to learn, to
help others if you can, and to have good
time. The meeting with old friends and
new acquaintance, the contact with
strangers, will pay you for going, to say
nothing of the new ideas and new ideals
you should get. 1t is worth while just to
have a good time, and good fair is a
good place to have good time.

And now correspondent of the New
Orleans Picayune, writing from Sunset,
st. Landry Parish, reports in the news
columns of that paper that Judge Hall in
an address delivered at that place last
week said that she had no personal ambi-
ton to be Govonor, and cared not whether
he was elected Or not, as he had some
thing to fall back on" AS q matter of
fact the Judge did not speak at Sunset,
but at Grand Coteau, some miles from
Sunset, and, of course, did not there make
such statement. The report that he did
is VIGOROUSLY untrue and merely repre-
sents the brand of campaign tactics being
resorted to by the opposition to this gen.
tleman in his candidacy for Governor. 1t
is regrettable that such reprehensible
methods should be resorted to by any one.

Mayor Behrman of New Orleans, one of
the most notorious ringster politicians that
ever held office, has refused to permit a
representative of the Good Government
League to examine the salary rolls of the
city. The reason is obvious. And yet
there are many who will vote with the
ring in the very face of such evidence.
The overthrow of this gang will come soon
er or later and we believe the election OF
Judge Hall as Governor Of our State will be
the beginning of the end of that clique.

eessa Young People and Parents Read.

What 1t Costs Not to Go to College.
Everlasting sorrow. No one ever went
to good business college with honest in
tent and serious purpose who did not con-
slider it money, time and labor we'll
expended. Thousands who have not gone
regret the fact that they did not. You
can go il you really hunger and thirst for
an education.
Nowhere else will you meet such choice
companions. The earth's noblest young
people are in the colleges, and at no other
time OF life can you make such strong and
lasting friends. Girls and boys from our
most cultivated homes of many states as
semble annually at our college. If you
do not go to college these choice friend
ships are lost to you forever.
Do not postpone your going to college.
Youth is the time for preparation, just as
spring is the seed-time. The farmer who
does not plant his seed in SPRING time has
no harvest. If he hasn't the money TO buy
the seed, he borrows it. If you havn't the
money to go to college, borrow it, and pay
1t back out OF salary earned after gradua-
ton. You can do this; many Of our most
successful men attended college on bor-
rowed money.
BUSINESS education is an asset worth
thousands. 1t is an equipment for LIES
work. 1t gives the power to earn. 1t de-
stroys poverty and enthrones prosperity.
1t cannot be lost or stolen.

st. Landry Commoner: The famous
Bernstein letter injured Judge Hall very
little. Those weak and wavering souls
who half-heartedly supported him flew to
Aswell or Michel when Bernstein, with
much red fire, published the famous epis-

willing to make the flop-some of them
we're glad of the opportunity.

Is also the residence of Edward

board for a long time, and the
fire Is supposed to have origlnat-
ed from a spark dropped down
from an upstairs pipe hole, and
ignlted the deposit of SCOT in the
fireplace, which, IN turn, ignited
the fireboard, and from that the
whole interior would have been
enveIoped in flames in q very few
minutes If 1t had not been dlscov-
cred IN time.
The fire was discovered by
Mrs. Sinner, who was up in her
sitting room. She detected the
odor of smoke, and went down to
the basement on her side of the
house, where everything seemed
to be all right, but upon opening
the door between her part and
the printing office part, she be.
held Il sight that made her think
for a moment that her home was
doomed. The prompt appIica-
ton of water which, fortunately,
was within easy reach, saved the
property from total destruction.
The loss which is about $4,000 is
covered by insurance.

AirShip Shops Employ Most Skilfm
Artisans.

Three years ago, the man who
would have described his occupa.
ton as a "finisher" for alrship
propellers would have been greet
ed with jeers and possibly point
ed out as fit subject for an in.
stltutlon for the feeble minded.
Today, the making OF aeroplanes
employs hundreds of men and
has gwen rise to at least half a
dozen new lines of endeavor. The
construction of the frail.looking
machines that glide so swiftly
and gracefully through the air is
a delicate operation and calls for
the utmost skill. The February
number of Popular Mechanics
Magazine contains two pages of
views taken IN modern alrship
shops, where the various parts of
construction are in progress.
In France, the building of aero.
planes has become we'll recog.
nized industry employing hun.
dreds of the most expert me-
chanlcs. In England, there
are several factories, and here In
the United States, at least two
big firms and many smaller con-
Germs are engaged IN the busi-
ness, the large returns already
received giving promise of in.
creasing profits for the future.
