Robert Budd Is Now Proud Father.

Mr.. Robert Budd is now a
daddy, he is so proud of his big
girl, which his wife presented to
him on Thursday, that upon
speaking to afriend of his babyhe
said, She weighs 48 pounds. .
Gee, she must be his entire eyes
and soul for him to estimate her
weight at such a scale.
No matter whether his baby
girl weighs five pounds or wheth-
er she would beat the worlds
record on weight Robert does
not care. He is the proudest
young man in this community.
The only thing which he was
disappointed was that the baby
did not resemble her father, but
is a living image of it's pretty
mother-this is indeed a bless
ing to the child-to favor its
mother.
Mr.. Budd married about a
year ago to Miss Celestine Roos,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Jonas
Roos. They moved to DeQulncy,
where Mr.. Budd went to accept
a position in the master mechan-
ic departmental the Frisco lines.
He remained there until the lat
ter part of January when he and
his charming wife removed to
their old home, Opelousas, where
they have been ever since.
We congratulate Mr.. Budd
most heartily upon his present
received from his wife and we
hope that the little girl when she
will have grown to womanhoodl
will still resemble her mother.
Mrs. Budd and child are re-
ported as doing splendidly.

Let's Brighten Up Our Premises.

Many Of the residence and
business properties in Opelousas
are badly in need of repairs,
paint and WhiteWash. a few
dollars expended in this direc-
ton would improve their appear
ance very much, and now is the
season when this work should be
done. Unsightly fences and
outbuildings can be made to look
well for a few nails and a little
whiteWash. Yards and lawns
can be made things of beauty by
removing the weeds and moving
the grass. Tumbled-doWn build
ing and fences should be re-
moved; they are Of no use and
only detract from the appear
ance of otherwise presentable
premises.
May we not urge upon the
property-holde-s of this city the
necessity of cleaning, repairing
and restoring to their Wonted
their homes and other
property. Besides being a
source of great satisfaction and
to themselves, it will
the value thereof and
be an assest to the community
at large. We do not mean that
those who are able to make cost
" improvements are the only
ones to follow these suggestions,
but all should take pride in
identifying their premises, and
in many cases the outlay would
be trifiing.
Opelousas is about to entertain
the State Firemen's Association
and a large number of visitors
from every part of the state will
be here. They will be favorably
with our town and its
people, doubtless, but a little eff
fort and expense along the lines
suggested will add much to their
estimate. Let us encourage
each other to brighten up!

STORK IS ALSO GOOD
TO BERCIER FAMILY

This week has been a happy
one for several families in this
city as the stork has been ex-
tremely generous to some fam
lilies of Opelousas. DR.. Eugene
Bercier, younger member of the
firm of Bercier & Bercier, Den
lists, can vouch for the above
statement. He is one of those
to whom the stork was good; on
Wednesday his wife bore a
big bouncing boy, mothers love
and papa's joy.
If nothing happens Opelousas
will be a large city before long,
as there were registered three
births within a few days, which
goes to add considerably to the
already increasing population of
this city.
Mrs. Bercier, before her mar
riage to the popular young den
fist, was Miss Louise Bienvenu,
daughter of Mr.. Lionel Bien-
venu, Of this city, and she was
during her girlhood days one of
the most popular young ladies in
Opelousas. The young couple
who have been blessed by the
arrival of a new member to their
family have numberless friends
in this community and these re-
joice with Or. and Mrs. Bercier
at their good fortune.

LEWIS and DOUCET HAVE
DISSOLVED FIJI N

On Monday the liquor firm Of
Lewis & Doucet was dissolved,
Mr.. Frank Doucet buying Mr.
Bill Lewis interest out. The
partnership which had been in
effect since the beginning of the
year was dissolved under most
amicable circumstances; it was
due to the fact that Mr.. Lewis
was DESTROYS of establishing a
saloon at a point in Evangeline,
near Oakdale, and only a short
distance from the Allen parish
line. He left this week, with
Mr.. Butler, his new partner, to
fix up everything, pending his
moving out there.
Mr.. Doucet who has been con-
nected with this liquor house,
directly opposite the courthouse,
known as the Courthouse Cafe,
was up to the time of his going
into this business, jailer of the
parish prison. He was in the
employ Of Sheriff M. L. Swords
for many years, having moved
here from Grand Prairie to ac-
cept this position. Now that he
is in business of his own and is
no longer a salaried man, and
having thousands of friends all
over the parish, it is hoped that
Mr.. Doucet will flo irish in his
enterprise.
The saloon has done remarka-
bly, well under the guidance Of
Messrs. Lewis and Doucet and it
is expected that as time passes
Mr.. Doucet will prosper more
1t is to be hoped that the two
Opelousas men who will estab-
fish themselves in business in
Oakdale will prosper and it is
the sincere wish Of their many
friends here that there will be
nothing but success strewn be-
fore their feet in the path of life.

Mansfield Scene Of New OIL Well.

Mansfield is jubilant over the
recent discovery of oil near that
town, by the Gulf Refining Com
pany, and the progressive citizens
of that enterprising little city
have cause to be happy over such
a splendid finding, If the well
proves to be a good one.
Realizing that Mansfield has a
very bright future before it the
agents of various oil companies
would not leave the farmers in
the vicinity Of the gusher sleep
on the night of the discovery Of
oil until these men would grant
the oil companies leases on their
places. Naturally this caused a
but a mighty happy
commotion, it should be suppos-
ed.

There are evidently some per-
sons in this community who
think that we are mind readers
or expert decipherers, as nearly
every week, letters come in
written in (such a manner that
one would think that a bottle of
ink was dumped" on the paper
and a chicken allowed to walk
across it.
The Clarion is glad to be able
to print any communication, in
which citizens Of this parish, as
well as Of the entire state, ex-
press their views on live topics,
but at the same time it IS NOT
glad to attempt to make out the
writing of people who write
about as BADLY as a newborn
babe.
There are other letters which
come here to be printed which
butcher the English language.
Of course such letters are SUBJ
ject to grammatical correction
by the Editor of this paper, or
they will not go into print.
Everyone who desires to write
a communication to the Clarion,
is earnestly urged to do so; we
will be glad to print it whether
it is in accordance with or against
our views, just as long as it is
Of interest to the community at
But we ask one favor
from these people and we. hope
that they will comply with our
'equest of writing in a very legi-
Die manner or using the type
writer, SO as to avoid errors
when we go to print.
Be sure to have your commu-
,ication TYPEWRITER, if
possible.

HATPINS.

Why could not the city OF Ope-
Iousas follow New Orleans ex-
ample on the hat pin question!
There is as much danger OF a
person having his face scratched
up or his eye put out in this city
as on the busy and hustling
streets of the Metropolis of the
South.
No one knows how really
dangerous those protruding dag
gers are, which ladies wear to
hold their hats on their heads,
until he comes in contact with
one, afterwards realizing how
very close his eye was missed.
All the jewelry stores in this
city have an abundance of hat
pin protectors or guards and it
would not be a bad idea if every
lady in Opelousas would go to
her jeweler and select one OF
these; the cost is very little and
it would eliminate considerable
worry on the part of their men
escort.
Only last Sunday one of the
prominent men of this commun-
ity, Mr.. Lucius Castillo, cashier
for the st. Landry State Bank,
while coming out of church bare
" escaped the crutial pains OF
having an eye put out by a lady's
weapon, called a hat pin. 1t is
true that ladies are not respon-
sible in a direct way for the
wounds inflicted upon others by
their long hat pins, but it would
be best if every lady in Opelou-
sas would purchase one of these
protectors, so as to be on the
safe side, thereby perhaps avoid
ing binding one dear to them.
AS Mr.. Castillo was walking
out of the church a lady next to
him turned around and happened
to strike him, with her hat pin,
just a fraction below the eye
ball. It was not her fault, nor
was it Mr.. Castille's. but this is
the way accidents take place.
New Orleans has a law on hat
pins, why can't Opelousas have
the same law? AT the same
time it would be better if such a
law would be passed by the Lou
isiana legislature.

FRISCO SHOPS.
Why don't YOU wake up!

is time that you, citizens of Ope-
lousas, realize that you have
been placed here, by the AL
mighty Creator, to attain a pur-
pose. You have been guided by
the invisible hand of your
Guardian Angel to this city
known to some few people out
side of Louisiana, and which
should be known throughout the
United States; but on account of
the lack of interest on the part
of the people, Opelousas is
scarcely known beyond it's terri
tory; yet you are here not as an
ornament to the community-on
the contrary you were destined
to be the servant of your fellow
being, in SO much that you are
in duty bound to do something
for the betterment of your city.
The time is now at hand when
you are in a position to do some
thing for Opelousas and help ac-
complish your end in life.
There are two most vital SUBJ
Jects now being considered by
some citizens of Opelousas, who
have the interest Of their COM
munity at heart, but still these
men can accomplish nothing, ex-
cept a lot of kicking on the part
of the mossbacks, If the pro-
gressiye people Of our thought
to-be progressive city do not
work shoulder to shoulder with
the men who are at the head of
propositions which would mean
