Tour of the l. A. M. A. holds an i'm
portant relation to the autoombile in
dustry of theS tate," said H. H. Rice,
sales manager of Norbyke & Marmon Co
"In view of the fact that it is non
competitive, there is none of the feeling
of rivalry that often enters into tours
of the sort, and the automobile busi-
ness of the State as whole is much
benefited by the manufacturers all
getting together and going out as
unit to spread the gospel of Indiana
made cars to the people of this and the
neighboring States. What the tour
wants to do is to make friends for the
industry of the State among those out
side, and nothing can get the results so
we'll as a good bunch of live boosters
who take two weeks from pushing
their own particular car, to devote to
awakening interest in Indiana automo-
biles in general. Although not many
direct results can be traced from the
Four States Tour, it is, in my opinion,
that it is very fine, as we'll as a very
unique enterprise. and is one that
should take it's place as one of the an
nuaI events of the Indiana Automobile
Manufacturers Association.

ITO the Fidelity and bravery

To the Fidelity and bravery
of the Swiss.
'sThe Swiss Guard has always
been a synonym of fidelity to the
cause they espoused; you as Swiss
born and American reared on the
plains of Texas from tender
childhood, can justly lay claim to
the traditions of both Republics,
and as you have exhibited here,
SO on a broader field of action
you will doubtless at all times
exhibit the racial trait of fidelity
to duty.
In bidding you farewell in be-
half of the Relief Committee,
which you inspired, they have
instructed me to present you this
silver cigarette case, appropri-
ately engraved with your mono
gram and an inscription on the
reverse, as a token
token of their affectionate re-
gard, asking you to accept 1t,
not for its slight intrinsic value,
but as an evidence of their good
wishes and Of their belief that
the material of which it is com-
posed is typical Of your sterling
worth and that its contents,
when used by you in the ortho-
dox fashion of the old soldier,
will dissipate the petty vexa-
tons and annoyances of the
moment, resolve them into thin
smoke and leave a pleasant
aroma of recollection of your
short sojourn in the land of
Evangeline."
This comes to me as a pro-
found surprise, said Capt. Ben
nett, in accepting the token. i
expected to attend here this even
ing an ordinary meeting of the
local relief committee; no bomb
shell or ambush in war has ever
so startled me. / shall take this
pretty case with me to the Philip
pines, and every time / extract
therefrom a cigarette, there will
come to me the fragrant memory
of a good people" Capt. Ben
nett showed by the pathos in his
words, and his every physical ex-
preston, that he was deeply
touched by the incident.
When he left Thursday, for
other duties, rations for two
weeks were given the local COM
mittee for distribution among the
sufferers.
1t is believed by the Govern
ment that there is no longer need
for its helping hand.

paper 10 Its Readers.

Yellow journalism is not con-
doned, or practiced, by the news
paper which does not cater TO a
morbid sentiment which unfor-
tunately prevails in every section.
There is morbidity in every
thing.
But the candid, truthful press
of the country insists upon giving
its readers the truth.
It does not make the neWs-it
prints it.
That is its business, just like it
is the business of nhe robed man
in the pulpit to expose sin, and
try to show the way to righteous
ness.
The Clarion has lately been
criticised because it told of water
conditions in a certain town in
this parish, and related other in
cidents Of the distressing condi-
tons.
It was no pleasure on the part
of the Clarion to recite these facts.
It was a plain duty, and every
assertion it made is backed up by
photographs, which will be publis-
he'd if necessity arises to do Sc.
This prelude is inspired by a
fool bill in the Louisiana Legisla-
cure, penalizing newspapers for
publishing the names of females
who have been the victims Of
criminal assaults.
The Louisiana Press Association
has protested officially against
this bill, not because the news
papersIare DESTROYS of Haunting
the names of the unfortunate
victims before the public, but be-
cause an untramelled press is the
safeguard Of the country, to its
womankind as well as to its
Womanhood.
And besides, the press officials
point out that the proposed laW

lished outside of the state and
circulated in this state, and if
constitutional, it's effect would be
to increase the sale and swell the
subscription lists of foreign papers

DEATHS.

GRIFFITH.-A Memphis,
Tenn, on Friday evening, May
81, 1912, Betsy Griffith. wife Of
f.. M. McClanahan, aged 20 years
and IL months.
One year ago, attired in white
dress, with flowers and hope and
love of life, Betsy Griffith gradu-
ated in the st. Landry High
School at Opelousas.
On that very day this year,
the shroud of death took the
place of the white dress of gradu-
alton day just a year ago; the
grave stilled the hope, the flowers
bestrewn on her coffin spoke
grief, and the love of life was re-
placed by a love for the God
above.
Mrs. McClanahan was the
daughter of Mr.. G. T. Griffith, of
Opelousas.
She was bright at school, and
her many friends join the grief
stricken parents in sorrow.
The remains were inferred in
the Protestant Cemetery, Opel
ousas, Tuesday evening.

Your Dollar Buys More

: When YOU buy a studebaker-E-M-F "30' or Studebaker-
Flanders "2O'' you get more for your money, dollar for
dollar, than in any other car built.
There may be other good cars-but what is their price2
That's the rub. IF they really are good cars, they neces-
sarily cost more because comparatively few are built. Some
poor cars, you know, are high priced too, so that the dealer
can fool YOU by cutting the price. What a car IS really
worth. not what it costs, should be your standard.
The studdbaker Corporation has the largest and best
automobile factories in the world. We could build and sell
any competing car today for less money than its present
nrice. In your StudebakerE-MF 's30' or Flanders CO.,
YOU get full value, because the biggest factories and the
best brains in the industry build these cars.
