Much Indignation has been
aroused throughout Acadia parish
on account % the .ata, s;ahbing of
Joseph Miller, young man and the
son of a prominent planter, which
occurred JUST before dawn Sunday
morning as a pablo ball was end
ing some miles from Crowley. His
three alleged assailants, Edgar
Meche. Ignace Duplechein and
Forester Duplechein. were ar
rested and jailed at Crowley.
Sentiment against future public
balls being given Saturday night
has been increased, and some citi-
zens advocate the taking of heroic
measures 10 abolish the alleged
nuisance. 1t is maintained that
these public balls have cost many
lives in the parish, estranged many
families, and by such frequent re-
petition of ARRAYS instillls and in
stigates brutality.

A good joke on all editor who
went one evening to report party
at a home recently blessed with a
new baby. He met the hostess at
the door, and after the usual salu-
tation he asked after the baby $
health. The lady who was quite
deaf, and suffering with the grippe.
thought he was asking after her
cold, and answered that although
she usually had one every winter
this was the worst one she ever
had; it kept her awake at night a
good deal and at first confined her
to bed. Then noticing that the
news man was getting nervous she
said she could tell by his looks
that he was going to have one just
like hers, and asked him to go in

Alpha's Tried (?) Advice.

Franklin WatChman: Brother
Pickles, of Morgan City, informs
through the columns of his paper
the Outlook, that he shot at thief
who attempted to appropriate some
of his fat roosters. He did not say
what kind of artillery ne used, and
as no evidence is at hand to prove
that he hit the mark, we suggest
that he try brick-bats the next
time he gets i'll action. He might
scare the fellow to death, if he
don't hit him.

house would be assured of a steady
supply and of ample demand right
within its own territory. II would get
the benefit of all the by-products. 1t
would retain the margin between the
raw and finished products. it would
increase employment and encourage
investment, and keep all the money at

Thought Records.

A tinfoil philosopher has
said: 1.-THE more l see of men
the better l like dogs" AS all
example of logic, that is a
good epigram, but there is
more of cleverness i'll it than
of love for humanity. Man is
alright i'll himself: Il is only
when he reflects the thoughts
of others that he falls to their
level. No institutio4 or group
of men or association is great
er than the individual. A rell-
eious or all irreligiOus man: a
democrat or republican, a
prohibitionist or an antl-pro-
hibitionist, a suffragist or all
anti-suffragist is not great or
evil because he is a religious
man, q democrat, a prohlbi-
ZIONIST or a suffragist. He is
great only in that proportion
as he is conscientiously honest
in his convictions or evil i'll
that proportion as he goes
against them.
Thus a man who believes
in his soul that a principle is
right, does wrong when he
votes for a law that would
oppose that principle. Also
he does wrong by voting fol-
a law which he intends later
to help nullify.
Think for yourself, and dc
what YOU think is right.
Thus a man becomes truly
great. Do not record the
thoughts of others. Thought
is the light from Heaven
Consideration of bodies of met
makes us hard and narrow
Think for yourself and lie
others think for themselves
Don't be thought record.

When you look at Nc 203 think of the
place for best cream and drinks in town

Every farmer who Owls his farm
ought to have printed stationery,
with his name, of his postoffice
given. The properly printed head
ing might also give the names of
whatever crops he specializes in,
or his specialties in stock. Neatly
printed stationery gives you a per-
sonalty and standing with any
person or firm whom you write
and insures the proper reading of
your name and address.
If you wish to write to your
congressman or member of the le-
gislature, or if you have a request
to make of your county superinten-
dent of schools, or if you wish in
formation from any business house
in any case your letter will have
increased weight and receive more
and quicker attention if you use
printed stationery.
Get the habit. Come into the
Progress office and have US print
you 500 sheets of good paper with
envelopes to match. 1t will be one
of the best investments you ever
made.
