Besides, the boys and girls who
are now unable to attend school on

the graded schools, going i'll the

evening. A thing that any progress

them. They will all go to the polls

Merchants Are Busy.

Our progressive merchants are
beginning to prepare for their
spring trade, and are going to
make strenuous efforts to persuade
the buyers to buy at home, and
they feel that now is the proper
time to start. You should notice
the way i'll which they are display
ing their goods which they are
offering. Our merchants are more
progressive than they are given
credit of being, and it is a shame
to criticise an innocent man, mer-
chat who tries to upbuild Our little
CITY.

Beautifying Premises.

Since the sidewalk and drains
have been finished, many of the
homes have been fixed up so that
the yards will have proper drainage
and the flower gardens have been
remodeled and new ones made,
which goes without saying that the
owners and tenants are proud of
the sidewalks, which affords them
better chance to beautify the
premises. There are many other
improvements that are to be made
soon, and the weather now is the
kind which brings forth the green
and spring like feeling.

Freeze Done Little Damage.

It is not believed that the freeze
that visited this section of the
country during the early part of
the week, did very much damage
to the fruit and vegetables. The
peaches for the most part seem to
be unframed, and the gardens
seem to have stood the cold very
well, except for here and there it
is noticed that some little damage
was done, especially Irish potatoes,
which were frost bitten. 1t is
sincerely hoped that there will be
no other cold wave that will come
now as the conditions can not stand
any more real cold, and the cool
weather will stunt the growth of
the crops and fruit.

Next Tuesday, March 25 an
election will be held in the Fourth
ward, including all the incorporat-
ed towns of that ward. The cleo
ton Is to decide whether or not
special tax of S mills on the dollar
per annum on all of the assessible
property situated in said Fourth
ward, OF this parish, including the
Incorporated towns, in aid of
railway enterprise, in favor and for
the benefit of the Louisiana Trac-
ton and Power Co. Said tax to be
collected and extended on the rolls
until the road is constructed and
i'll operation, beginning with the
year 1914, and extending to and
including the year 1923, or to re-
alize the sum of Sl4, 900.
There is no doubt but what this
election will carry by a very large
majority, if not totally, as it did
in the city of Abbeville. The peo-
pie of the Fourth ward are very
progressive and know a good thing
when they see it, for they fully
relize the great benefits that they
will derive from such great enter
prise as this will prove to be.
They we'll know that they will
be greatly benefited by the open
ing of line through their section,
which will bring them trade and
be in closer touch with the fertile
lands along the Vermilion river,
trade that they do not get now on
account of the bad roads, and the
time that is lost going back and
forth to their towns.
If the company secures right of
way they will open drains all along
the proposed route, along side its
tracks, connecting with the river,
draining that section, and besides
they will assist in establishing a
model road on the same right of
way, and agrees to pay half of the
upkeep for the model road, a road
which will make it easy for the

Ditch Crossings Repaired.

The ditch crossings, leading from
the street to sidewalk, have in
many instances been repaired, and
especially those where new side
walk has just been put down.
There is a continued Improvement
being made in the way of better
walks and crossings, and to the
delight of the pedestrians, the old
shaky plant walks are getting less
and less all the while. Let the good
work go on.

A Mothers Vision.
(By May Vincent Perkins,

\ mother by a cradle sits,
And rocks it to and foe,
While to her loving mother eye
These visions come and go.
She sees her baby as he grows,
As he i'll time shall be;
At first he sits alone, then Crawls,
Then pulls up by her knee.
She sees him taking his first steps
How tot riugly lie walks,
She hears his little baby voice
As lispingly lie talks.
She sees him don the Russian suit,
Puts by his baby clothes
Endure5 the lonely, anxious hours
When first TO schools he goes.
When blouse and boomers he puts OH
(She wipes away a tear,
He's taken to the barber shop
And shorn of cErls SO dear.
And then he thinks he's most man,
From that eventful day,
He's not SO oft with mother seen,
With boys b. loves to play.
And all too soon come college days.
(Her heart is rent in tWo1
But 60, unselfsh mother love)
She lives them bravely through.
When he returns to her at last.
She hugs him close (wliat joyD
Although he's grown to be a man,
He's still her darling boy.
But soon there comes, alaSl day
When she must learn anew
That mother love must ever be
Unselfish as It's true.
She sees him at the altar stand,
She hears the VOW he takes
To love and cherish until death
Another-(hear she wakes)
She glances at the sleeping babe,
A prayer is i'll her heart;
She realizes sacrifice
Is but mothers part.

Was Popular Ruler.

Salonika, March 19.-King George
who was assassinated here yesterday
afternoon while walking in the street
with Lieutenant Francoudis, an aide
de-camp, was popular among MS
subjects. He was often rated as an
autocratic monarch, but in spirit he
was democratic and did much for
the prosperity of Greece. King George
was in his 6Sth year and had ruled
Greece for fifty years. lie was
brother of Queen Mother Alexandra
of England, and son of the late
kius..of Denmark. In october, lSo''
he was married to Princess olga
eldest daughter of the Grand Duke
Constantine of Russia, brother OF
the late Emperor Alexandri II. Most
OF the kings property to the amount
of twenty million dollars was u
Denmark. lie has made a fortune
in the real estate business.
A previous attempt to assassinate
King George was frustrated in 1898
