Fancy Weave and BrOcade Effects and
Fancy Pleated Collars Coming
In Vogue.

NEW YORK, Aug. 14.-New mater
ials are engaging the attention of wo-
men who are planning their fall cos
tunes. Because tailor mades are to be
built upon more elaborate lines, the
fashionable fabrics are those showing
fancy weaves, brocade effects, clever
arrangements of stripes, checks etc.
Entire suits are seldom made of these
ultra-dressy stuffs, however. They are
at their best when combined with 9TH
er materials Usually the coat is of
brocade, satin velours peau de peche
pot de fleur, or some such exquisite
fabric, while the skirt is of plain cloth,
silk, etamine, wolfe, tee.
AS rule the latest offerings for fall
are expensive They are, however, I'M
usually wide, so that only small
quantity of material will be required
for a coat or jacket.

Practically every one of the 9!

first of September or shortly there
after. One rural school has already
opened. Nearly all of the schools
VIII open for at least six-month
terms and most of them will have
eight-month sessions. at is very
gratifying" said Miss Dryden, county
superintendent" to note that not a
single district in the county has Ia
ken advantage of the provision made
by the last state legislature fixing
five months as the minimum length of
school terms instead of six as was
formerly the case"
Plenty of Teachers.
1.-THE schools of the county," stated
Miss Dryden, ''have not experienced
the difficulty in the past two years
in securing teachers that they used
to face and practically every dis
trict has already been provided for"
This betterment of conditions, thinks
the superintendent, is due in large
part to the summer school at the
university which has proved itself
great advantage both to the teachers
themselves and to the rural schools
in finding desirable applicants for eve
ry position that is open not only in
this county but in many other sec

women, who were brought be-
fore the City Judge and the
proper charges made. The May
or,.made personal request Of the
Court TO inf1ict the maximum
penalty of the law on these vio-
~iators. The Judge was very
severe on the convicted parties,
as he, like the Mayor, does not
want a repetition of theseIl dis
graceful occurrences.
For the prompt action in this
matter the Mayor and the Judge
are to be highly commended and
the Clarion feels assured that
both of these officials are bent
upon performing their duty re-
gardless of consequences.
The editorial appearing in last
weeks issue, of this paper, was
not prompted by the fact that
the violators were negroes,
but the Clarion proposes
from now on to expos
any violations of our laws,
whether they be white or black.
The Clarion desires to congrat-
ulate Mayor Loeb for his prompt
action and for having personally
conducted the arrest and prose-
cution of these negroes, and con-
graduates also Judge E. S. Kerr,
for having imposed sentences
that will make all violators of
the law of good morals take
notice.
We are convinced that the city
authorities are determined to put
an end to these conditions.

YERS SHOU
ATTEND COUNCIL
ON
TUESDAY.

The taxpayers in the business
district should feel in duty bound
to attend the meeting of the
Board of Aldermen on next
Tuesday. On that night it will
be decided what kind Of perma-
nent pavement Opelousas will
have, and it is to the interest OF
those who will have to pay for
these improvements to our city
to be present when the Board
will act.
It is expected that there will
be quite a number of the
citizens of this city, who do
not live in the business district
at the meeting, and there is no
reason why the entire business
section of Opelousas should not
be well represented.
There is no doubt that the
Mayor and Board of Aldermen
will perform their duty, but
there is, also, no reason why the
property owners should not be
there to see that this is done. If
the Board acts on that night and
there are no taxpayers there, it
is a sure thing that some one
will kick, but on the other hand
if the property owners are pres
ent and witness every move of
the Councilmen and approve of
these moves. no one would be
able to thrust the blame on the
shoulders of the representatives
of the people. 1t is the duty of
those who are interested in the
welfare of their city to attend
the meeting and see what the
Council will do.
The Mayor and Board of AL
dermen are anxious to have
every person who is able to be
present to attend the meeting of
that body on next Tuesday; they
want the people of Opelousas to
know and realize that they are
working for their benefit and do
not want the voters and tax-pay-
ers to have any cause for COM
plant, after the permanent
pavement question will have
been settled. That would be too
late; Tuesday night is the time
for the taxpayers to express
their views if they have any on
this important topic.

Mr.. Editor:
| desire through your columns
in justice to myself and the
Board Of Aldermen, to correct
the impression you have created
by your article on Fire Alarm
System. In the first place let it
be understood by those that have
been otherwise informed, there
was no difference of opinion be-
tween the Mayor and Board, re-
garding the necessity Of INSTALL
ing a fire alarm system and, it
was unanimously agreed that our
city should be equipped with a
fire alarm system. Now the
question was, w h a t system
should we select.
Some three months ago a COM
mittee whose honesty and in
tegrity has never been question
ed was appointed to investigate
the merits Of the different fire
alarm systems, after a careful
investigation land | will say here
that / saw quite a bit of data
that evidently caused the COM
mittee to decide in favor of the
Gamewell System.) They rec
commended that the Board pur-
chase a Gamewell System, a sys-
tenn that not only comes up to
the requirements, but one that
will maintain the high standard
required by the Fire Prevention
Bureau.
In the face of these facts /
feel that the Board who unani-
mously adopted the above sys-
tenn was justified.
Now, Mr.. Tax Payer, there is
as much difference in Fire Alarm
Systems as there are in street
pavings. Do you want me as
your representative t 0 vote on
the 21st inst. for the cheapest
form of pavement submitted, ir-
of grade and quality?
If you do you had better secure

purpose of fighting the Louisi-
ana lottery, and every since this
it has gone on for the uplifting
of this community, fighting fear
lessly and boldly. It has with
stood one crisis upon another
and there is no indication at
present that it will go under for
years to come.
The Clarion has been known
as one of the boldest and most
open-forward journals in the
state OF Louisiana. It has never
once changed. its policy, politi-
cally or morally, always fighting
on the same lines. ever since it's
first edition came out in 1890.
With the exception of six
years, Raymond Breaux, who
enjoyed the reputation of being
a fighting editor" was at the
head of the editorial department.
Of this paper, and to him and
his friends, who stuck to him at
all times, are due the success of
the paper. He came into the
limelight as one of the best edi-
tors in the state during the reg
ulation movement in st. Landry,
when he championed the cause
of the White
Always democratic the Clarion
is rightfully heralded as one of
the leading democratic weeklies
in the South, and it still con-
tinues to enjoy such an enviable
reputation.
