the present public road right near the
church at Rynella, and following this
road to proceed direct along the Salt
Mine Railroad connecting with the road
known as the plank road to Avery Is
land BY crossing the Salt Mine rail
road Just South of the junction with the
Abbeville road, we lengthen the pro-
posed road about 100 yards, but we have
all good high land for the road by max
ing this change; whereas, if We con-
tinue along the Salt Mine railroad, we
would be obliged to 60 through two
large swampy ponds. The owners Of
the property along this road are willing
to donate a right-of-way to the Parish
for the road on the following conditions
That suitable crossing be maintained
across the bitches At points where pres
ent field roads now cross the proposed
road The donors reserve the right 70

it be found that the deep bitches, which
it is proposed to cut in order to build
this road, bring too great volumne of
water through which this road will pass.
The committee earnestly hopes that you
will have a survey of this road made,
and commence work on it at the earliest
possible msment.
Respectfully submitted,
E. A. McILHENNY,
Chairman for the Committee.
Avery Island, La. Mar. Sd, 1914.
To the Honorable Police Jury, Iberia
Parish, New iberia, La:
Sirs-At the suggestion Of Mr.. Mar
eel Derouen, one of the committee,
which you appointed to look into the
feasibility of securing right-of-way
for a road parallelling the Salt Mine
railroad from New iberia, La, to Avery
Island, La, the following clause is sub
mitted as a substitution for the third
from last paragraph in the original res
olution adopted by the above committee:
"That suitable crossings be maintained
across the bitches at points where the
present field roads now cross the pro-
posed road in order to facilitate parties
working tho adjacent lands to carry on
their necessary farming operations.
Respectfully submitted,
THE COMMITTEE,
Mr.. Numa Drouet protested against
the construction Of this New Iberia
Avery Island road over the lands of Ellis
Segura On which he has a cane switch,
claiming that = recently appropriated
road and two natural drains already ira
verse these lands and the proposed road
would impose q needless hardship upon
the owner. He suggested that the pres
ent existing road be utilized to the point
where it crosses the Abbeville Railroad
and the committees recommendations
be carried out from that point. On mo-
ton of Mr.. Landry, duly seconded and
carried, the Engineer was instructed and
directed to survey the routes recommend
ed by the committee and by Mr.. Drouet
and report to the Jury At its next reg
ular meeting.
President King reported that he had
caused a survey to be made Of the road
leading across Treville's pasture and had
been informed that Ellis Segura would
donate the twenty foot right-of-way
necessary if the Parish would construct

The man who goes through life on
crutches when he ought to walk with
firm step and head up is nuisance. He
fills no real place in the economy of life
and is always burden to his folks and
usually also to his community. The be-
ing who loafs on street corners too lazy
to work and who lets his wife provide for
the family is full brother to the cripple

He who seeks to wrong another always
gets paid back with compound interest.
This does not necessarily mean that the
man against whom the wrong is done is
guilty of retaliation. But it does mean
that Nature itself acts the part of the
boomerang as to the offenders own char
actef.

Sir:-It is very near to that season
of the year when the story OF Robin
son Crusoe will be read and read
again to wondering bright eyes, and it
may not come amiss to give a short
resume OF this wonderful island on
which good Robinson Crusoe lived so
many years with his man Friday and
the goat and the parrot First. |
would have the little folks know that
it Is a really, truly island, and that
the story Of the strange adventures
of Robinson Crusoe have been delight
ing the ears Of childhood near onto
200 years. Alexander Selkirk robin
son Crusoe) was the captain Of one
of two ships that were fitted out for
a buccaneering expedition, and, as the
story tells, his ship was wrecked and
he was cast up on the friendly shore
of Mas a TERRA, the largest island OF
the Juan Fernandez group that Il
situated in the Pacific ocean about
800 miles of the coast of Chile, and
belong to that country. go
IL is not intended to tell single
word of the charming story Of Robin
son Crusoe, for that will all be better
told along the line employed by Defoe.
But It is to be told that the Chilean
government Is to establish. a great
wireless station on the island of Mas
TERRA, the very island on which

THE HUMAN NOTE.

There is an intensely human side of war
or rather many intensely human sides. But
only by accident is the human note sounded in
the war concert The overwhelming import
ance of victory or defeat Of forced march,
artillery thunder! infantry charge or naval
broadside, subdues the individual note and the
individual story.
Yet occasionally some such incident comes
to notice as that reported by the Associated
Press from the historic battlefield of Sedan.
Emperor William and Chancellor Won Beth
mann Hollweg, who were in the vicinity of
Sedan October TO- visited the house of Don
cherry, near Sedan, where Bismarck first met
Napoleon ILL., September ., 1870. Both the
Emperor and his chancellor left mementOes OF
their visit in the form of gold and their names.
Having nothing else upon which to write his,
Emperor William borrowed card from per-
son of his suite and wrote on the back of it,
civilian II, l. r.
A''I knew perfectly who were the two men.
who came here in September, 1907 said
Madame Fournaire Liban, speaking OF the
visit. "But this time 1 had no idea who was
speaking to me. chatted with them freely
and one of them complained bitterly that the
French send the Algerians, the Moroccans, the
Senegahans and other saVagesi against the
Germans. Then the remark of one OF the
officers of the party revealed the identity OF
the speaker. 1t was Emperor William II.
Another of the party was Prince Waldemar,
son of Prince Henry. What seems to have
made the most. impression on the old lady was
the stature of the chancellor, whom she thus
compares with Bismarck: He is tall, very
tall, but he has not the wicked eyes of Bis
marck. /" 8

SHALL THE FLORAL PARADE BE
y ABANDONED?

IF there is to be a Floral Parade as a feature
of the 1915 Mid-Pacifc Carnival, the auto
owners must speak up quickly. :
Each year the director of the Carnival is find
ing It harder and harder to arrange an adequate
and worthy Floral Parade. Each year the
chairman of the committee having this feature
IN charge finds increasing difficulty in securing
the necessary decorated cars. The owners pre-
fer to let somebody else do the decorating and
entering Of machines, while. they themselves
watch the procession from the side-lines.
1t takes time, trouble and work to decorate
car and put it in the parade@-or money II a
professional decorator does thefwork. There
are plenty of explanations for the growing
difficulty I of arranging a high-class Floral
Parade. On the other hand, it is a big feature
and should be permanent feature, The Mid
Pacific Carnival is an outgrowth OF display
of autos ten years ago The basic feature
should be kept and developed
II cannot be retained unless the auto-owners
voice an emphatic affirmative They should
say at once, in response to the letters director
Dougherty is sending out, whether qranpt they

There are several islands In the

OPPOSITION 70 THE L1rrRAcY TEST.

President Wilson's opposition to the hit
eracy test is, IL the Washington dispatches
correctly represent his attitude, on precisely
the same grounds as that of his predecessor,
Mr. Taft. 81 .s.s s.. 3. 81
President Taft refused to approve an imH mi
grafton bill because of; this test. Much the
same is the bill now before Congress, generally
known as the 8 Burnett bill. = 1t passed the
house and except for the opposition to the
literacy test would probably have passed the
senate at this. session and gone to the presl-
dent. Mr.. Wilson lets it be known that ne dis
approves of the iteracy test, and it is exceed
ingly doubtful if the bill will be perfected.
Z Hawaii has particular. interest in immi-
grant legislation. A large percentage OF the
immigrants who have come here in recent years
from Europe conld not pass the test proposed.
Yet they became a valued element in Hawaiian
The hteracy test does not constitute far
standard Of judgment upon alien Immigrants
and It ought not to become part OF the inm am
grant law.
