Within six or eight days
the Pictorial envelopes being
printed under the supervision Of
the Civic League of this City is
expected to be ready for dlstri-
button among those of our bust
ness houses who have placed ord
ers for several thousand. These
beautiful envelopes will have six
views showing the most interest
ing spots of the City and Parish
and it behooves every citizen who
has any degree Of civic pride to
give them the preference over the
envelopes now being used by
them. In one corner Of the en-
velope is left blank space to be
filled in with the merchants name
when he places his order and
they will be sold printed with
only small advance Of 25c per
thousand over what is be-
ing paid for envelopes at the
present time. 1t was the inten-
ton of the ladies Of the Civic
League to begin a distribution
of the goods on the first day OF
the present month, but owing to
a mistake made by the engraver
in spelling Bayou Teche incor-
rectly another plate chad to be
made which has delayed the ship
ment. Once our people begin to
use these envelopes New Iberid
will receive some very profitable
advertising without any extra
cost to anyone and for that rea-
son the ladies hope to have them
placed on the show counters OF
every store in the City to be re-
tailed to the ladies and children
at a small cost per pack. Those
who wish to have their business
card printed on one or more thou
sand can ring up the Enterprise
Office or any member Of the Civic
League.

The Doe Hall Street Fair
Shows advertised to hold the
boards here for one entire week
arrived on time. but owing to
the protest of some Of our citi-
zens were denied the privilege Of
running their shows by the City
Court. When the advance agents
of this particular show made II
xhcwn to Ii, that they were going
to exhibit here we expressed our
surprise, knowing the great feel
ing against shows of that nature
by the better element of this COM
munity. On several occasions
during the past we expressed
our opposition to some OF
these Street Fairs knowing
that there had been some shows
here that should never have been
permitted to open their doors as
they were indecent and not hit
for grown people much less our
children, but despite that fact
they were permitted to operate.
Whether these people carried
such attractions we do not know.
all we do know is that they came
with testimonials that all Of their
attractions were clean and whole
some. We understand Judge
Nuckolls looked up the old anti
lottery law which covers all kinds
Of raffles and ordered the City
Marshal Dominique to suppress
every stand where lotteries ex-
listed. Rather than be deprived
Of operating those features Of
their attractions, the prcprietors
withdrew from the City. Since
it was necessary to put this law
into effect many Of our merchants
who raffled candy and other arti-
cles have also been notified that
the authorities would not permit
1n<+orsoc NJ any nature wh4taO.
