Advice Home Merchants Should
Heed.

We consider it a duty as a citi-
zen, as lover of our home town
and of our home people, to wage
an unrelenting warfare against the
catalog houses that are destroying
our home enterprises. Only with
the assistance of home people can
our local merchants expect to
make a success. However, they
cannot dispose of their goods to
an advantage unless they let the
people know-through the home
paper-what they have to sell.
Every day we receive through the
mails, from distant cities, requests
for space in our paper. And vet
we have merchants right here in
town whose name you never see IN
any one of the papers unless they
go off or return home, get sick or
die. Then we have to come for
ward and tell the world his good
qualities, his many charitable
deeds, how kind and benevolent
he was In fact we take him as
near to the pearly gates as we can

The merchant who makes the
greatest success is the one you

his home paper. How can any

cost you more than a newspaper

one in and out of town. For your
own interest you should advertise,
get rid of catalog houses, and
build up your own business. =,

Tie Cow Ordinance.

On April 7th an election will be
held in NatchltocheS to determine
with what consistency our town
can Law claim to its so-called civic
progress, While the city COM
missioners had full authority to
pass the required ordinance, be-
cause of the warm fight waged in
the past, they have referred the
matter to the voters and the polls
will settle the question of COWS
or not"
When Natchitoches voted in a
commission government, the adj
ministration taking the office
inherited an era of side walk
building that they carefully nur-
tured and encouraged. The work
has never Jagged, but has been
continually pushed, and today al
most ten miles of concrete walks
on practically every street make
this one of the best towns in
Louisiana in that respect.
Following up that work, a cam
paign for street paving was be-
gun, resulting in modern paving
on jefferson. Front, Washington
and Pavie Streets and with the
assurance that this work will con-
tinue until we have practically all
of the town we'll paved,
Natchitoches owns her electric
light and water works system,
both pants well installed and
equipped and excellently run.
Recently a dog ordinance was
passed by the commissioners, and
now after campaign of years,
the stock ordinance dreamed of
by all those who have been in
terested in civic Improvement, has
been referred to the voters. This
ordinance is limited one, Great
ing a district that covers the main
business and residential part of
town. 1t merely takes the prjyi-
lege of pasturage away from the
streets, walks and lawns of Nat
chitoches. 1t is a reasonable re-
striction that is required, if we
wish to remain consistent with our
civic improvement.
Concrete walks and stray cows
don't go together. 1t was never
intended to pave our streets for
the convenience of homeless bowl
mes, and there is a glazing inconsis-
tency between browsing cows and
feedin. calves. and modern civic
improvements. No one can jus
tify common pasturage in our
town, and the Enterprise feels
assured that after years of devo-
ton to this cause, the voters on
April 7th will maintain the pro-
gress and civic pride of our town
and make by their votes a COW
desert of our streets.
