Lasourche In Line for the Eair.


Our Donaldsonville friends are be-
stirring themselves with the view OF
holo.ng an inter-parochial fair ait that
place Oct. 10, IL, and IL. The fair
Is to be the joint product Of the par
ishes Of Ascension, Iberville, st.
James. Assumption and Lafourche.
With the view of having LafOurche
properly represented at the fair,
Mayor Walter Lemann and Charles
Delas, duly accredited representatives
of the Donaldsonville Chamber OF
Commerce. came to Thibodaux last
Saturday and interviewed a number
of our citizens. Mayor Lemann, who
is clever and impressive talker,
told us 1t was the desire OF Donald
sonville to make this fair a per-
manent annual event, and that while
it was started in Donaldsonville
there is no reason why each of the
five parishes interested should not
have its turn in having the attrac.
tions assembled within its limits. BY
tLis procedure, he thinks, more
friendly feeling may be established
and thus tend to the permanency OF
the organization. One parish alone
as Mr.. Lemann very logically contends
cannot get up a fair that viii be sui
ficiently attractive to make it a sue
cess in financial way, and as
finances are the sinews of business al
