During the rain storms last
week when nearly every pubhc
road leading into this City was
completely submerged by water
the public thoroughfare which
passes the beautiful plantation
property of Mr.. Octave Darby
was high and dry, made so by
the excellent drains which lead
into the marshes of Spanish Lake.
Were it not for the hedges a.ong
that particular road it would I'M
doubtedly be the best one III the
Parish. 1t will not be very long
before the Police Jury will have
to take steps to have the hedge
cut as was done on the jefferson
Island lane. otherwise it will soo's
be impossible for vehicles to ope-
rate on that thoroughfare.

Our presses were busy this
week getting out several thou
sand circulars advertising the
/, seventh anniversary sale begin
ming to-day of Mr.. Abe Hirsct,
the haberdasher. The gentleman
came to New Iberia during the
fall of 1907 and leased small
section of The Enterprise build
. ing which was at that time con
sidered mere hole i'm the wal
and remained there for foui
years. 1t was not many months
later. however, before Mr.. Hirscl
realized that his business was
growing to such an extent tina
) he would be compelled to seek
.rters that would give hln
|, more room to display his goods
! Watching his opportunity to Sc
cure a stand within close prox
unity to where he was doing bus
mess. he at once leased the larg'
| building few door north Of The
!. Enterprise Office, owned by the
Knights of Columbus, where h
continued to build up a lucra
tive trade owing to his business
sagacitv and efforts to please tn
public. 1t was always in tn
, mind of the courteous and enter
prising merchant to purchase
building whenever the first OPP
portunity arose and last year n
:. took over the elegant store build
ing erected by Judge Hacker ad
/ joining the original stand wher'
J he first made his start. From
the very inception Of his entr!
into business pursuits here, Mr.
, Hirsch has always had an ANN
: yersary sale and is now offerln;
goods at the lowest cash prices
which make it attractive to an.
l one needing anything i'm his line
: If Abe has not exactly what yo
t want he will get it for you.
