INTERESTING EXHIBIT.
zTION AT ST. CHARLES
college.

The exhibition presented by
Second English at st. Charles
College, Grand Coteau, La,
April 9Th, was a nos
p | e a s a n t surprise to the fac
ulty and students, and the large
audience who witnessed it. The
readiness with which the class
members answered the various
questions on "Gray's Elegy'' and
Single Entry Bookkeeping, and
the accuracy with which they
worked out Algebra, proved that
they were well trained for the
occasion.
The introduction was delivered
by E. P. Petetin who also played
a violin solo. A paper entitled
THE Elegy in Prose- was
creditably read by A. j. Danos.
The Death of Gaudentis," a
recitation, and I'll Trovatore," a
piano solo, were both rendered
by L. r. Mouton in such wise as
to show him no tyro in elocution
and music. The song, In the
Good Old United States, was
the climax of the exhibition.
The orchestra, under the di-
rection Of the jealous professor
of music, E. F. Waechter, play
ed it's best.
The stage was beautifully dec
Grated; in the bac kground
streamed down the pennants of
the most prominent universities
and colleges, while the front was
banked with palms, greatly en-
HANGING the effect. The class
colors were purple and gold.
It was the unanimous opinion
Of all present, voiced in touching
language by Rev. FIR. President
that it was an exhibition, model
in every way, and unexcelled by
all previous endeavors, and Sec
ond English can feel proud that
their earnest efforts to entertain
In6lE hearers ere cEOWll5u Vital
well merited success.
The program complete was as
follows:
Overture, "Poppies," N.

E. F. Waechter, Director.

from my white friends, ] have
been able to acquit all indebted

Do You Realize What This Bombshell Letter Means?

to pay a certain price. Why should he be forced
to pay in ha1f-dollars if satisfaction could be given
in dimes7 Why must he pay $500 if al hh0the
woagtsd could be had at $4.857
Hereafter, as Mr.. Bliss letter states, every Regal
the price. 1.-THE Regal hoe-build,ers produce style
that can be sold for $685., then S.. IS will be the price.
Nothing will be added merely to bring its price to
$500, nor will anything be taken out to make its
price $3.50. The customer gains both ways and the
Regal style-makers nowhave free hand, unfettered
by tradition.
With this new freedom, and with the whole atten-
ton Of the Regal organization fixed on standards
of quality, regardless of the ups and downs Of the
leather market, Regal Shoes will more than ever be
the best that money can buy.
St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1911-04-15

This means an END Of the arbitrary prices on shoes.
These arbitrary prices have for years been fixed
on good shoes immovably at $3.50, $500, $3.50,
$500, $3.50, and SO on; each price always a half
dollar jump away from the next.
# a designer produced a new shoe which could
properly be sold at, say, $3.50, the manufacturer had
either to take something out Of it to bring the
price to $500 or to add extra and unnecessary
expense merely to shove the price up to $3.50
Thusyou can see that under the fxed-price system
the customer often had to buy and pay for more
than was actually necessary. True, the difference
was seldom large-20t to 80 cents at most-and true,
too, that in Regal Shoes the full moneys worth
was always given. But, what the customer wanted
was TO GET A SATISFACTORY SHOE-not

Escapes by Balloon.

A pickpocket at Sayre, Okla closely
pursued by the town marshal. leaped into
the basket of a balloon Just as the air
craft was leaving the ground and sailed
away to safety.
The balloon had been filled with gas
and the aeronaut, George Harvey. was in
the basket ready to start when the mar
shall discovered the thief taking purse
from pocket Of a citizen whose attention
was conferred on the airShip. the marshal
attempted to catch the pilferer and the
pursued man ran and leaped into the bas-
ket as it cleared the earth. He refused TO
heed the marshal's warning cry Of Stop
thief r.
At the height Of several hundred feet
the thief drew a revolver and warned
Harvey not to release the rip cord until
he was ordered to do so.
After the pair had travelled fifty miles
the unwelcome passenger gave the word
and the balloon was lowered. Ten feet
from the ground the thief leaped from the
basket and ran. Relieved OF part of its
burden. the balloon again shot upward.
Harvey finally affected a landing several
hundred yards from where the pickpocket
had alighted.
