Iberia Building Ass n
On Thursday night last at
about ten o'clock there was some
| little excitement among the resi-
! dents Of East End. 1t seems that
an attempt was made to enter the
residence of Mr.. j. II. Elliott Jr,,
! who was absent from home at the
time. Mrs. Elliott heard a win
dow sash in the ado ming room
be ng raised and securing her re,
yolver, saw man making an ef-
fort to get in when the courage
Gus lady fired two shots at the
scoundrel who made his escape at
once. When taken into cOnSid-
GRAFTON that that section of New
iberia Is not policed one hour in
twenty-four, attempts at burglary
is not surprising. Instead Of the
City Fathers subdividing the City
and giving each district night
officer they seem to be confined
solely to the business district as
though other portions of New Ibe-
ria are not entitled to police pro-
lection. Burglaries will sometimes
occur, even though there are of
ficers on the beat, but when a
section Of a City il absolutely

Through the courtesy Of Mr..

tendent of the Southwestern Trac-
ton Company, builders of the In
terurban Trollly, connecting New
Iberia with Jeanerette, we were
taken over the route as far down
as Olivier last Tuesday evening
to see the progress that is be-
ing made in the construction
work. The rails are laid as far
down as Hubertville, with great
deal of the preliminaries being
put in shape at Jeanerette before |
the rails can be laid through that
town. For a stretch. of two miles
at the Nelson canal
all of the wires are being strung, i
under the direction Of Mr.. j. w. |

purpose. At the intersection of
the Lietmeyer plantation the line !
runs off from the Main public
road on the ridge to the right and
follows this course the entire route

interfere with the public road be-
tween the two cities. The Power

DRUNKS CAUSE
MUCH EXCITEMENT
strsckfus Line Officials Have to uee
Force to compeli Disturhers
to BIO Quiet.

Quincy Wing: There was some ex-
element yesterday afternoon at the
streekfus boat landing just as the
steamer Keokuk was about to leave
on It's regular up-river trip. Three
citizens of LAGRANGE who were some
what under the influence of fire wat
er and who had three good-sized Jugs
of the rejuvenating liquid under their
arms, attempted to board the steam
er. When they were told that they
could not make the trip on account of
being under the influence OF liquor
and having a quantity OF it with
them, they showed fight and it was
necessary for the crew to take all the
fight out of them before the men
could be persuaded to remain behind.
After they had been convinced that
they could not force their way, much
to their discomfort and marring OF
their beauty the three plain DRINKS"
each took a jug under his arm and
linking arms reeled off down the rail
road track. Although the captain and
his crew were somewhat rough in
their treatment they were only up
holding the splendid rule that there
shall be no liquor or any one under
the influence of liquor on the boat.
The Keokuk Is still making its reg
ular trips to Keokuk and return and
will continue to do SO until the river
freezes. About sixty people made the
round trip to the Dam City Sunday
Yesterday the Keokuk had about fif.
teen passengers and a fair cargo for
4 the upriver towns.

rue Thanksgiving is
the True Thanksgiving :
Rev. j. 0. Ledbetter Delivers Thanksgiving
at the Union Protestant Services at the
First Christian Church.

.aThou crownest the year with thy
goodness; and thy paths drop fat
mass. Psalms 65: II.
n his address ON Thanksgiving"
REV. j. o. Lebbetter said, in part:
IN pursuance OF the call of the pres-
ifent Of the United States and the
governor Of this commonwealth. as is
mr. beautiful custom, we are met in
,,nion service to observe our national
thanksgiving day.
IA national Thanksgiving day Ia par
t,cula.iy an American Institution,
though it was not instituted by Amer
leans. we may lay some claim to
having instituted it, for we revived the
day. God, in the days OF Moses, or
dered feast of Ingatherings, and the
hebrews in compliance. with His
commands, held their annual feasts.
But the observance Of national
Thanksgiving day, after having laid
dormant in the old world for many
centuries, passed over Europe and the
sea to reappear with our Puritan
fathers in New England in 1921; Gov
ernor Bradford OF Plymouth colony
having in that year issued proclama-
ton for its observance. President
Washington gave recommendations
for such a day to be observed and the
continental congress did issue orders
for its observance a few times but 1t
did not become an established order
OF our government until it was so pro-
claimed by President, Abraham Lin
coin.
In the name of domestic charities,
IN the name of sacred institutions, we
welcome the day We welcome it in
recognition of the goodness of God to
usy and feelings Of gratitude to the
Father of all mercies and the God of
all grace arises In our hearts and
waken songs of praise.
Thanksgiving is not merely a lip
service but life service, for true
thanksgiving is thanksgiving. One
day in the year is not enough for
thanksgiving nor have we fulfilled our
duty when we simply thank God for
the abundant harvest and national
prosperity.
We only have to turn to the pages
OF scripture to learn that God expects
thanksgiving to go up from our hearts
with each petition. Paul, under the
power OF inspiration says to the Phil
ippians, Let your requests be made
known with thanksgiving"
Exclude Our. Pride.
Our Thanksgiving services should
| have excluded from them anything of
boastfulness. because of our very ex-
cellent nation We, too often on these
occasions, enumerate our resources
with sense of our greatness, speak
ing of our mineral wealth. agricultur-
al resources, our manufacturing in
dustries and our marvellous nation.
A stranger coming into our midst
would think that we actually built the
mountains, bitches, the rivers dug the
lakes, and laid deep in the bowels of
the earth our resourceful mines. and
that the sun, moon and stars moved at
our command.
Understand me, we should not be
less patriotic because of our Thanks
giving, nor less loyal to our nation
because of our splendid heritage, We
must keep before our minds the fact
that God reigns, that through Him has
come all these earthly resources,

ion, the belief IN personal. sovereign
God Is OF inestimable value to anv ma
ton. 1t is better protection to lib
Yerty than law and police regulations,
& greater safeguard than walled cities
and standing armies. Rob men Of the
belief in personal God and you .'tear
the fhrobbing heart out of warm, In
telligent civilization and leave 1t a
lifeless and worthless corpse. Blot
out the name of God and the Reign of
terror" would be the result here in
our own beloved America. God and
God alone is the true light OF men.
Wherever you find his name to be
entirely forgotten you will find the
lowest condition OF savage life. When
| tell you to rob men Of their belief
in personal God and you establish a
reign OF anarchy only need to refer
to the history Of France when they
had removed God. the Bible and
thoughts Of future retribution from
their courts, laws and minds.
II you want the same spirit to
curse America, teach your children
that all expressions Of gratitude to
God for the blessings of life only
evince a weak mind. Teach them that
the Bible is only mythology, that re-
ligipn is superstition and that belief
in God is only fanaticism But il you
would continue to enjoy the blessings
of peace and good government and the
consolation Of religion. adopt as the
motto Of your private life and the
watchword of your national life the
language of-the Holy Writ, .Ofrer unto
God Thanksgiving and pay tiny vows to
the most High
Back In History.
Looking back through the dim
pages of time see the graveyard of
nations now buried in ruins; ask the
cause Of all this ruin and the answer
comes back as an echo from the hills
Of Divine Revelation: ..The nation
and the kingdom that will not serve
God shall perish" Looking back over
the departed greatness of Egypt,
Babylon, Tyre and Ninevah, see an
inscription and 1t reads, God hath
numbered thy kingdom and finished
it, These nations forgot God, and
trusted to material prosperity and ap-
plause of men. Atheism and effem-
macy were the causes that destroyed
| them.
If you will not share their fate then
Iyon must turn to Gods own book and
learn the lessons OF government from
that king whose name shan shine OF
