FROM OUR STATE EXCHANGES.

Morgan City Outlook: Hobson made
record by jumping into the sea. He then
proceeded to capitalize his exploit for polit-
ical purposes. He turned later to the white
ribbon for help. Meantime Underwood
stood at his post, and the people of Ala
bama had enough of the saxon sense OF
political values to elect Underwood. Hob
son and Aswell are the kind of game that
are caught in the same trap.
VermiIion News: Factories would bring
settlers. These are far better than all of
the highly colored circulars and especial
editions sent out by boomers" and
"sooners." Every thinking person under
stands that these are very highly colored,
and discounts them Is per cent, or more.
By building factories, people will be at
tracted to this section, and they will be Of
the industrious class, and who pay their
way. We do not want the poverty stricken
bone-head variety who ask US to pay their
freight.
Lake Charles Times: Hon. Henri L.
Gueydan begins to look like sure shot for
the Third District nomination for Congress
to succeed Hon. Robert F. Brousssrd, who
goes one notch higher and takes his seat
among the senators. Mr.. Gueydan de-
serves any office the people of that district
can give him. He is one of the pillars in
business, one of the leaders in develop
ment, strong fighter for all he considers
right. He has stood the fire of criticism
and the sting of defeat, but it has made
him stronger, broarder and more willing to
fight with renewed energy in the future.
His politics has never been questioned
and the Democrats of the Third District, in
the opinion OF the Daily Times, can make
no mistake in getting together and select
ing Mr.. Gueydan without causing him te
combat opposition.
St. Francisville True Democrat: So TO,
as we have been informed, only two of thu
parish teachers took advantage of the
} teachers junket at Shreveport. This is {
great advance over few years ago wher
there was general exodus of teachers fol
hat buying holiday, so-called teachers
convention, for which the public had tt
pay. Teachers conventions are all right
! say in summer, when they use their owl
time but during school year their services
obviously belong to the school boards tina
employ them, and in the last analysis t.
the public patrons. 1t is all nonsense tt
say that the latter's children reap the ben
fit of what is learned at these conventions
This premise is based on the fact that tn
J teachers learn something, which few do
and further on the fact that the teacher
J remain in the same school through sue
ceeding years. Where are our teacher
of yesteryear?

Mississippi Mother of Senator'S.
New Orleans States.

New Orleans States
When Capt. Frank S. White shortly
takes his seat in the United States Senate
as successor to the late Joseph F. Johnston,
Of Alabama, Mississippi will enjoy the
unique distinction of having eight of her
native sons sitting in that body at the same
time.
Her two distinguished representatives.,
John Sharp Williams and j. K. Vardaman,
were both born on her soil. Senator Cham
berlain, of Oregon, opened his eyes first
near Natchez. In the near neighborhood
Senator F. K. Newlands, of Nevada, came
into the world. James P. Clarke, who has
just been reelected from Arkansas, is a
product of Yazoo County. Senator Key
Pittman, of Nevada, gives Vicksburg as
his birthplace. Choctaw County was the
place of nativity of Senator Gore, the blind
statesman of Oklahama. Senator Whites
earliest glimpse of the world was at West
Point, in Copiah County.
Mississippians are scattered all over the
country The fact that five states are rep
resented by her former citizens surely
justifiies her claim to "The Mother OF
Senator's"

In 1918 the production of pig lead in the
United States was 420, 900 tons, while we
consumed over 500 900 tons-the difference
being importations from Canada and Mex
leo, coming in as a by-product of silver
ore. OF the APO, 900 tons of lead produced
in the United States last year, Missouri
produced over 150, 900 tons, and one coun-
ty-St. Francois-produced 80 per cent of
that quantity.
In the last Mexican war the United
States employed about q 900 regulartroops

red land field is still in cultivation, with q
promising crop of corn growing. It is said
the deceased had never resided more than
five miles from the home of his boyhood
days though he was more than eighty -four
years old.

Booze Sellers.


Shreveport Caucasian
Who are or have been the lawless?
To what cause or source are such dis
orders traceable :?
The answer may be direct:
Booze, boozers and sellers of booze.
And yet there are some good citizens of
Shreveport who are strong advocates of
booze to be dispensed through the So called
regulated saloons, which are heralded as
being the great promoters of business
the business which enriches the compare
lively few who derive their profit from the
boozers.
Operating against the enforcement of the
law is the encouragement given to the sell
lers of booze in the court through the hair
splitting technicalities of law, so-termed,
which is not deniable. 1t is not the pro-
posed feature of exemption from State
taxation which is attractive to the manu-
facturer and the investors of capital, as it
is the reasonable protection which should
be expected from the full enforcement OF
the law against the boozer and the seller OF
booze, through whose pernicious influence
ninety nine per cent of the crimes recorded
in Shreveport and Caddo Parish may be
traced.

MORE LIFE.

There are various opinions and numerous
surmises as to the underlying cause of all
the ferment, unrest and discomfort which
are everywhere manifesting themselves at
the present time, and which have never
been entirely absent from human society
since it first began to exist Such con-
dition on the surface may be attributed to
many different causes. In final analysis
it will be found that all relate back to and
spring from one, which not only accounts
for them all, but is as we'll the source of al
most every, if not of every, form of human
activity and exertion. In the most com.
prehensive statatement which the Great
Teacher made of the reason for his mission,
He said. 81 am come that We might have
life. and that We might have it more abund
antly." BY that He did not mean that He
could, or would if He could, increase mere
physical vitality which is life in the ordinary
sense of the word, but that His teachings,
entering into the hearts and minds Of men,
would so broaden and sweeten their lives
that life, that is human existence, would
be richer and more Astounding.
1t is the innate sense of the masses that
they are entitled to more abundant life
than can be had when their whole time is
given to grinding toll, and when their en-
vironment is bare, ugly an unsanitary, OF
when they are in the grip of helpless pow
erty, that is finding voice and producing
the discomfort which is always the precur.
sor of improved conditions. They are com.
ing to realize that more life does not NEAR
simply more creature comforts, better
houses, food and clothing, but the oppor'
tunity for every one to develop whatever
faculties he may possess and have acces:
to, understand and enjoy all those things
which appeal to the intellect and the spirit
Every one of the great movements of thu
time-sanitation,h hygiene, vocational train
ing, temperance, purer politics, the quicl
exchange OF intelligence, the ease ant
rapidity of travel-what are they. but tn
expression of the human spirit reaching
out for more abundant life? 1t is the SAM
aspiration which is behind the striving TO
universal peace, and which is bringing
more and more into the lives of men tn
spirit of brotherly kindness. AS we com
to partake more abundantly of life, we sha
not only know more and enjoy more of SO
ciety, of Nature and of art, but we shal
love more and stop hating altogether. TIL
Astounding life is open to US, but we mus
ourselves go in and possess it. 1t will nc
come to us unsought.
A large part of an abundant life mus
necessarily be on the physical side, and
is there that we are making most progress
SO great that it is not unreasonable to loo
forward to a not far off time when all tn
worst diseases will cease to be dreaded
when the criminal and those with incurabl
maladies will cease to be perpetuated, an
when men will live out their natural teri
of life in full endowment of their movers
To him who stops to think of it, the mys
terry OF life is overwhelming, and it is nc
likely that to. our finite intellects it will eve
be solved, but we are getting closer an
closer to its origin.

AS roaring lion, and ranging bear;
so is wicked ruler over the poor people.
xviii, Is.
Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbours
house; lest he be weary of thee, and so
hate thee.-xxv, II.
He that trusteth in his own heart is fool:
but whose walketh wisely, he shall be de-
livered.-xxviii, 26.
To have respect of persons is not good:
for for piece of bread that man will
transgress.-xxvH, Il.
He that rebuketh man afterwards shall
find more favor than he that flattereth with
the tongue.-xxviii,2 %.
Take away the wicked from before the
king, and his throne shall be established
in righteousness.-xxv
A righteous man falling down before the
wicked is as a troubled fountain, and a
corrupt spring.-xxv, 26.
| 1t is better to dwell in the corner of the
in a wide house.-xxv, "a.
He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil
eye, and considerth not that poverty shall
come upon him.-xxviii, %.
Whose keepeth the law is wise son
but he that is companion of riotous mer
shameth his father.-xxviii, Z.
Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his
wickedness shall be showed before the
whole congregation.-xxvi, 26.
Hast thou found honey? eat so much as
is sufficient for thee, lest thou be fillec

He that is of proud heart stirreth W

Surely the churning of milk bringett
forth butter, and the wringing of the nose
bringeth forth blood: so the forcing o
wrath bringeth forth strife.-xxx, 80.
Put not forth myself in the presence o
the king, and stand not in the place of grea

thee, Come up hither; than thou shouldes
be put lower in the presence of the prime

Baltimore Sun: 80. K" means "a]

Baltimore Sun: 80. K'' means 'sall
right" There are several explanations of
its meaning and quite few legends are
told to explain it. 1t is plausibly held that
in early Colonial days the best rum and
tobacco imported came from Aux Cages,
in Santo Domingo. HINGE the best of any
thing came to be known locally as Aux
Cages, or O. K. The term did not, how
ever, pass into general use until the Pres
idential campaign of 1928, when the sup
posed illiteracy of Andrew jackson, the
Democratic candidate, was the stock in
trade of his Wing opponents. Seba Smith,
the humorist. writing under the name of
Major Jack Downing, started the story
that Jackson Endorsed his papers 80. K .
under the impression that they formed the
initials of "all correct" tits not at all i'm
possible that the General did use this in
dorsement, and that it was used by other
people too.
