THE RIGHT
WORD IN
ITS PLACE
You Can Acquire Knack of Using
Language by Taking Advan-
tage of This Offer.
Have you the magic of the neces

Have you the magic of the neces-
sary word?
If not, why not?
The Pioneer is at present Offering
to you the opportunity of obtaining
to what degree you will the faculty
of free expression of thought through
the use of an extensive vocabulary
which has brought fame and fortune
to many noted men.
Many fortunes have been made and
may be made from words. The Pho
neer in offering to, you the New
Websterian 1912 Dictionary, Illus
trated, supplies you with the mine
which, when operated by you, will
certainly better your fortune through
increasing your ability of expression,
add much to your enjoyment of life,
and perhaps bring you the success
which you covet.
Rudyard Kipling has acquired a
fund of words that gives him invar-
iably the right word in the right
place; Conan Doyle's powerful de-
scriptive style is merely a structure
of words rightly understood and
rightly applied, and each of these
Englishmen receive from SO cents to
81 a word every time he sells an
article.
Rufus Choate, the most successful
jury advocate of his time, refused to
enter the court room until he had
found a new word for use in that
days speech. Senator Ingalls,, the
most powerful orator of the Fiftieth
Congress, when asked how he &C
quired his wonderful command of
language replied:
'For years I have made a practice
of searching the dictionary for words
that are new to me, and then using
them in conversation and public
speaking.'
The opportunity of which these
men have taken advantage is open to
you. Compare your limited success
with your limited vocabulary and you
may see your failures in a new light,
and realize why you do not have the
same chance as the man with the
more fluent speech and apt way of
expressing his thoughts.
If you are hampered by a limited
library, get busy and clip coupons
for the New Websterian 1912 Die
tionary, Illustrated. Keep it at your
elbow in your Office or in your home
and use it constantly. Do not pass a
word you do not understand when
you are reading or listening to a SER
mon or lecture-look it up in the
dictionary and you will find that your
fund of general information and your
vocabulary will grow apace and you
will be worth more to yourself, to
your employer and to your friends.
The distribution of dictionaries has
proved such a popular idea that the
Dictionary Department is busy all
day long showing the books to those
who are anxious to see what they are
going to get as soon as they have col
lected six consecutive coupons. Not
one book will be given out until the
six days expire. 1t is expected that
sets of coupons will begin to arrive
with rush then. ..'

Notice to Candidates.

At meeting held April 8, 1912, the
Democratic committee of Grant parish
passed the following resolution:
On motion of C. w. Williams, Sec
onded by Richard Newton, the follow
ing resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That the secretary of this
committee is instructed to insert no.
tice in the Chronicle for thirty days,
that a number of the candidates who
made the largest deposits of money
with the chairman of the parish COM
mittee have signified their willingness
to let whatever balance is due them re-
main in the chairman's hands for use
of the committee, there being need for
such fund, for stationery, postage,
advertising, etc., and the suggestion is
made that all of the candidates should
donate the committee any balance due
them. The amount is small for any of
the eighty odd candidates who made
deposits, the pro rata for return in
most cases being only few cents fol-
those who made deposits of $1.00 and
81. 90 with the chairman.
Resolved, That while the primary
election law provides for the return Of
unexpended balances to the candidates,
there is nothing to prohibit the com.
mittee from accepting donations fol-
party campaign purposes; therefore no
tice is given to all candidates that il
they apply to A. A. Dean, chairman
at Paramount, La, at any time before
May Is, 1912, for any balance that ma,
be coming to them, the same will b
returned, and that in the absence o.
any such request or demand all balances
will be retained by the chairman.
1 There being no further business tn
committee adjourned subject to call.

APPALLING DISASTER.
1872 Lives Lost at Sea in Collision of
$40, 900, 900 Steamer With
an Iceberg.

The world was Mortified on last Mon
day at the news of the sinking of the
steamship Titanic. The first intima-
ton of the steamer being in distress
was conveyed by wireless to New York
and confirmed from Cape Race, N. F.,
at 1925 o'clock Sunday night. The IT.
tanic had collided with an iceberg whose
height was estimated to be more than
two hundred and fifty feet. The first
report that the Titanic was sinking was
startling, but there was transmitted
the assurance of a calm sea and clear
weather, with several steamships COM
ing to the rescue.
Immediately following the hopeful
view of the disaster there was flashed
the horrifying intelligence that the ship
had sunk.
The ship was credited with having
218O persons on board comprising first
and second cabin passengers and steer
age. Of this number only 1853 are re-
ported to have escaped in boats and on
RATS, making the appalling total of
1912 unfortunate souls who almost in
the twinkling of an eye went down in
inky darkness to the obscure depths OF
a watery grave two miles deep. 1t is
said that it will be impossible for divers
to recover any bodies or valuables at
this great depth.
The Titanic was of the White Star
Line and left Southampton April 10
on its first trip bound for New York.
1t measured 1872 feet inches in length
and was the largest steamship ever
floated, having only recently been
completed at cost of ten million dol
lars.
1t is disclosed from the records that
the sinking of the Titanic is the great
est of disasters of the sea, not except
ing the burning of the General Slocum
at Hellgate, New York, when one thou
sand people persisted by fire or were
drowned.
Nothing could show more plainly the
heroism of the crew and the men pass
engers, who stood by the doomed ship,
facing practically inevitable death, and
sent the women and children away in
the lifeboats.
sSinking by the head. Have cleared
boats and filed them with women and
children"
This was the final message these
brave men sent the world, for it was
directly afterwards that their wireless
signals sputtered and then stopped al
together.
The picture inevitably that presents
itself, in view of what is known, is of
men like John Jacob Aston, master of
scores of millions; BENZ. Guggenheim,
of the famous family of bankers; Isidor
Straus, q merchant prince; William T..
Stead, veteran journalist; Major Archi-
bald Butt, soldier; Washington Roeb-
ling, noted engineered any or all OF
these men stepping aside and bravely,
calamity remaining to die that the
place he otherwise might have filled
could perhaps be taken by some sabot-
shod, shawl-enshrouded illiterate and
penniless peasant woman of Europe.
Thus the stream of women, with
toddling infants or babies in arms, per-
haps most of them soon to be widowed,
filed up from the cabins and over the
side and away to life. The men-by
far the greater part of remained
to die, millionaire and peasant and mar
of middle class alike, bravely, it mus,
have been, sharing each others fate
