THE POINT OF VIEW.

The New Orleans States very clever
ly turns tables on the Bunkie Record
The latter was tearing it's hair, not to
say shirt, about the corrupt, boss
ridden, boss driven cattIe-Iike humans"
which were voted in New Orleans cleo
ton day in masses. The States asks
the Record to explain how the trick
was worked in the country when ma
jorities mounted up as in Acadia, 2026-
256; Claiborne, S50-4O; Evangeline,
79O-75; Lafayette, 1O72-16S; Lincoln,
1O17-71; Richland, 562-47; Sabine,
1O52-5O; Tensas, 1888; Union, 1908
rs; Vim, 1O21-19S.
OF course there was no trick in the
country, no collision whatever, but the
retort is neat one, and illustrates
how what the other fellow does is
worse than what one does ones self.
Your aunt has kleptomania, jim Jones
steals. You have an impeachment in
your speech. Bob Weeks suffers, and
so on. 1t is free men in the country.

here were very interesting. We went
to North Island where there was
school located for training boys to go
| in aeroplanes. We saw about five up
at one time and they had guide who
Explained everything The trip on the
water was nice too. We also went to
Ocean Beach, to the oldest ostrich
farm in the world-saw the egg in in
cubator there, the young ostrich, and
lall sizes up to 81 years of age. Their
plumage was so pretty and they tried
to show it off. We also went to the
Mission Gardens which were very
pretty; Ramona's Wedding Place in
Il Old Town "a very historical place
This was very romantic trip. They
had an old Wishing Well where we
made wish, old pictures, old copper
pots, first old carts used in California,
etc. We also went to Tia Juana in Old
Mexico, 2O-mile trip. We saw the old
fort on Mexican border, but they would
not let any one go in or take picture
you know they hate Americans. We
stayed in San Diego three days, then
stopped at the Grand Canyon, had
ride eight miles around the Hermit
Rim and walked down a short distance
but not to the river The canyon is
about $500 miles around ranges from
10 to 20 miles wide, and is mile deep.
We stopped day at Adamana-the
Petrified Forest = right in the open
desert, and we found this almost as
wonderful in its way as the Grand
Canyon, Great trees fallen making a
natural bridge you can walk across
and stumps all nothing but rocks. You
could hardly realize they were trees
until you'd see the bark. We were
allowed to take away five pounds, and
you ought to have seen all the tourists
picking it up. They also had Painted
Desert-it looked little like the Grand
Canyon.
Again we went over into Old Mexico
lat Juarez and saw the Old Mission
Church, built in 1649, hand-carved CELL
ling and the altar was a beauty. We
|also saw the jail, but as the Mexicans
|scowled at us so, we didn't linger long.
When we got to Fort Worth we had
completed our circle. We made good
connection at Adds, caught the boat
to Baton Rouge and got home Sunday
might = five weeks from the day we
started. BONNIE CRUMP.

QUOTATION AND COMMENT.

1t is mighty mean to patronize a
merchant who will trust you until you
get so far in debt to him that you are
ashamed to see him, and then go and
spend your cash somewhere else, where
you could not get the credit; but there
are people who do it. The honorable
way would be to spend your cash with
the merchant who trusted you, even if
you never expected to square up the
old account. Winfield Times.
1t is shabby behavior, but is it not
due largely to the canny habit home
merchants have of crediting all cash
in sight on the back debt and then
making difficulties about further ex-
tension of credit? This tempts the
careless buyer to go where he can
spend his cash and mo questions
asked" This comment is given as ex-
PLANTATION not excuse for such an in.
considerate course.
