Clara Kimball Young in Without
co,sa ~

There is divinity that shapes our
ends, rough hew them as we may. !"
I The truth Of this saying is exempli-
fled in the unfolding of the thrilling
story, without Soul" in which
Clara Kimball Young will appear at
the Gem Sunday, Nov. rs. The
story of Lola is one of the most re-
markable that has ever been put on
the screen, and there is no doubt that
it will become a subject of widespread
discussion and divergence of opinion.
Was Lola really dead? Was her
father justified in his scientific exper-
iments? Was Lola to blame for the
inexplicable change in her character,
or was she but the victim of some in
scrutable fate? These are some of
the questions that will be asked What
ever the answers may be, it will be un-
iversally conceded that in the adapta-
ton of Owen Davis play, picturized
by James Young, the favorite picture
star, Clara Kirnball Young, has found
a vehicle which enables her to give full
vent to her unique gift of emotional
characterization and at the same time
portray story of extraordinary inter
est.

An Interesting Event.

At the noon lunch served to the
guests at the Woman's Missionary In
stitute held in the Methodist church
Thursday, Tom Oak, the Chinese laun-
dryman, who was present by invita-
ton, was called on for toast, and to
the delight of the members and
friends of the society, he in his Chi
nese lingo told most Interestingly of
the progress being made in his coun-
try in commercial, social and political
life, and paid glowing tribute to the
missionaries who brought his people
the knowledge of the Bible and the
blessings of the christian religion, to
which he attributed the spirit of pro-
gress in China. Rev. w. w. Holmes,
of New Orleans, very happily respond
ed to the toast, and talks were also
made by H. L. Baker, Miss Willie Lee
Rowan, Mrs. Frances Neibergall and
Mrs. R. H. Harper, of New Orleans,
who conducted the institute, and. by
Rev. P. O. Lowrey. The lunch is re-
ported as having been splendid one,
and in every way the program was
most helpful, and was enjoyed by all
present.

NEW FEED FOR STOCK.
Senator Labarre to Experiment with
Burbank Spineless Cactus.

Senator Gus. j. Labarre of Assump-
ton passed through town today en-
route home from q visit to New Or
leans, where he attended the Nation
al Farm and Live Stock Show.
Among the many things Of great in
terest to be found there is the Bur-
,ank Product Company's exhibit. This
he thinks is nothing less than mar
velous Mr.. Labarre is now negotiat-
ing with the representatives of the
Burbank Company for sufficient cac-
tus of the spineless variety and of the
fruit bearing variety to plant one acre
of land at his Grand Bayou home.
The agents assure him of a produc-
ton of between 100 and $50 tons per
acre.
The spineless cactus, for feeding
purposes, is as valuable as any other
food product known to man, says Mr..
Labarre. It's nutritious value is about
that Of alfalfa, or our pea vine hay.
The agents promise a perpetual crop
without danger Of loss from freeze,
drouth or any of the other vlciss1-
tudes our crops meet with.
A farmer planting this cactus will
have feed at all seasons of the year
and delicious fruit during nearly one
half of the year, without the necessity
of replanting or cultivating.
Of course, this plant will be sub
iect to destruction by inundation or
high water, but as Senator Labarre is
optimistic about the ability of our
present government to handle the
food problem, he feels that this dan
ger has been practically averted, so
far as our immediate community is
concerned.
Mr.. Labarre hopes through his ex-
periments to bring about condition
Of affairs that will enable all of our
interior lands that are too far away
from sugar refneries to be cultivated
in cactus, and those lands not subject
to cultivation could be used, every
foot of them, for the raising Of some
of the finest cattle in the world. With
our soft climate and vegetation near
ly all the year round, it will only be
necessary to grow forage for the up
keep of such stock as are taking care
of their young. Cows, sheep, hogs
and horses without offspring can read
lily take care of themselves in this
country

Highway to the Gulf.

There has been much talk of late of
a great highway connecting the Mis-
sissippi river with the Gulf of Mexico
and paralleling Bayou Lafourche
along its entire length. The most
feasible plan we have heard mention
ed is to form all of the parish lying
on the west side of the bayou and ex-
tending from the Assumption parish
line to the mouth of Bayou Lafourche
into one road district, and vote bonds
for grading the road with all its
tributaries, thus putting Lafourche
parish on the t'good roads" map. We
know of nothing that would help
more in the development of our hum
dreds of thousands of acres of idle
land, and which would bring greater
prosperity than this parish has ever
experienced. II this road were built
to the mouth of the bayou, that IA
nous bathing and fishing resort could
be reached by automobile from New
Orleans in three and half to four
hours.-Lafourche Leader.

Building of Gravel Road Deferred.

A meeting of the police jury COM
mittee invested with authority to con-
tract for the extension of the gravel
road in the first district of the parish
was held at the courthouse last Mon
day afternoon. Jurors G. B. Reuss
and Jasmin Tobias were in attend
ance; juror c. H. Landry, ST., be-
ing absent Mr.. Peterson, of New Or
leans, connected with the j. w.
Thompson Gravel Co., in association
with Harry Weber Of this city, sub
mitted proposition to build the road
from its present terminus in A Bend
to the st. James line, distance of APP
proximately four and seven-tenths
mile, for $4,000. This figure was
subsequently reduced to $12,25O, but
Juror Reuss thought the parish could
make better bargain later on, hence
action on the matter was deferred.
We understand the proposition sub
mitted by Messrs. Peterson & Weber
has since been withdrawn.

Benefit Gard Party Enjoyable Success

The five hundred party given at
the parochial hall of st. Vincent's In
stitute Thursday afternoon, under
the direction of Mrs. Paul Leehe, was
distinct success in every respect.
Besides affording a liberal measure of
enjoyment to all present, the delight
full affair will yield net profit of APP
proxirnately $50, which will be turned
over to the good Sisters in charge of
St. Vincent's Institute for the furth-
erance of the splendid work done by
the school. Eighty players took part

Market Franchise sid.

At a meeting of the commission
council Thursday night, the franchise
of the municipal market for the COM
ing year was adjudicated to Louis
Wild for a consideration of $3.50.
John Ramirez, the present lessee, was
the only other bidder, offering $1,000
for the privilege. Cecilien Esneault
submitted bid of $3.50 for the wharf
franchise, but this amount was con-
sidered inadequate by the council and
it was decided to retain the lease and
operate the wharf for the account Of
the city, as is now being done.
