SAYS WAR HAS AIDED
CAUSE OF ABSTINENCE

| Washington, Aug. 1O.-The
European war has given impetus
to the movement toward abstin-
ence, Secretary Daniels said We'd
nesday night in an address at the
10th annual meeting Of the Cath
olic Total Abstinence Society of
America. He expressed hope and
belief that "the day is coming
when total abstinence will prevail
in America.
"The most powerful argument
today for accession to the ranks
Of total abstinence is war;" Mr..
Daniels said. "The Russians and
the French have in this war set
an example in total abstinence
that is unparalleled. The exam
pie of crowned heads, great adj
mirals and generals, who because
they feel the necessity of cool
heads and steady nerves, have
Joined the ranks of total abstain
ers. gives a mighty impulse to
vour own and all like organiza-
tions seeking the only way to the
highest efficiency in peace and in
war;

A COMMUNITY WITH THE
RIGHT SPIRIT.

Some things ought also to be
said about the community il
which this particular picnic was
held. You will know that it is a
progressive neighborhood when
we say that it maintains five
teacher school eight months in
the year and teaches eleven
grades, doing all this in a hand
some and weIl-designed $1,000
brick building with modern
equipment. The building was
evidently not put up by men who
had their own ideas and were un-
willing to follow suggestions from
state and National departments
of education.
Why this district has such a
good school and such superb
building is probably explained by
the fact that it has been for a
long time the custom of the school
patrons to meet two or three
times a wear. dis"rsS plans for
school improvement. sift out
ideas. decide on the best. and
then act as one man in going
after what the majority wanted.
The chairman of the local school
committee called these patrons
meetings we commend his
excellent example to other men in
similar positions. It's a fine way
for Mr.. Committeeman to get the
cooperation of the whole commun-
ity instead of bearing the entire
burden himself.
An efficient school always has
a fine influence on a neighbor-
hood and we found here new
proof of this fact. The people
are evidently reading people,
a people of great neighborliness
and real culture. The homes are
pretty, the new ones giving evil
dence Of having been designed by
competent architects (Which is
not always true of farm houses), ; |
and the people dress simply with !
out dressing expensively. And i,
while the editor of a neighbor
paper said recently that farm

PRINT PAPER CRISIS TO BE
REACHED IN OCTOBER.

Washington, Aug. 10.-The
crisis in the news print paper sit
uation, which already has cut
down newspaper profits enorm-
ously, will not be reached till late
October, when contracts come up
for renewal, according to reports
received from many sources by
the Federal trade commission.
The presidential election, gether
with the European war, is ex-
pected to increase an already un-
paralleled demand for newsprint,
which manufacturers tell the
trade commission they will hardly
be able to meet. This year for
the first time they have not been
able to lay up a large reserve dur
ing the summer.

PEOPLE ONE DOESN'T LIKE.

IN every crowded train there
are people who put their suit
eases or hats on the seats beside
them, or turn the next seat over
and put their feet on it. or sit
next to the aisle and glare at
women and children and timid
males who want to sit down. In
every moving crowd there are
people who push, joste and step
on innocent toes. At IRREGULAR
intervals in the procession of au-
tomoblles which takes up the
highways on Sundays and holi-
days there are automobiles con-
tanning people who care nothing
for the rights of pedestrians.
drivers OF hOrse-drawn vehicles,
or occupants of other automobiles.
These people make disagreeable
noises with their horns, open their
exhausts when they think it can
be done without any risk, cut in
ahead of slower machines, and
crowd other machines off roads
and down banks.
Then there are people who
stand on busy corners and make
walk around them, peo-
pie who smoke whore smokingSis
not permitted, and people who
spit in public places.

KEEP UP COMMUNITY PRIDE.

just as you can destroy his faith
in himself and so ruin child S
career by continually emphasizing
his faults without recognizing his
good qualities, so people who
should be leaders often ruin Il
community in the same way. The
right way to make boy do his
best IS not to be continually look
ing out for mistakes and reprov-
ing him for them Though this
must be done in some measure)
I'but rather to be constantly on the
lookout for good traits, mention
ing and encouraging these. The
same rule should be adopted in
dealing with communities, as we
are reminded by the following
sensible counsel which Prof. f. r.
Groves gives to pastors interested
in community betterment:
elm his attack upon social evils
and his impatience with unwhole-
some conditions, thepastor of the
village Of country church needs
ever to be most careful that he
does not destroy community self
respect. Destructive criticism
may be both honest and just with
out being wise. Merely to be
right is by no means enough.

more knowledge of human ma
ture, more unselfish thinking than
criticism and denunciation. The !:
promise of better things is based
upon proper community pride
and the whole matter is made
hopeless if the effort for reform
Kills the respect of the commun-
ty for itself. /,
ut is especially important to
'ealize that the first effect of such ]
criticism may not disclose it's :
leeper result. 1T is possible to &
tir protests and win approval {
nd yet poison the sources of ef- S
ective reconstruction. The safe &
nethod emphasizes what may be s
s well as declares what is. In |
irect criticism is more profitable i
nd lasting even if direct denun- 8
iation stings more. The COM n
lunity may come to accept the b
nhappy picture drawn Of it, t
erhaps based on fact, as its true C.
keness and give up all social il
mbition. In the process of il

THE CITY.

New Iberia, the parish seat of 1beri
Parish the capital city of the Teche an'
=, the metropolis of the Land of Evange
line, is in the hear of what has loni
been known as one of the richest agri
cultural sections of Louisiana.
The city has population of some
5000 inhabitants and is located on thu
Southern Pacific Railroad, 126 miles
west of New Orleans. 1t is also served
by the New Iberia and Northern, the
Iberia and Vermi!on and the Franklin
and Abbevlle Railroads, while a branch
road takes you to Avery Island. Sit
uated on the banks Of the famous Ba-
you Teche, a navigable stream at all
times of the year, it enjoys good water
way transportation. Indeed few cities in
Louisiana enjoy as excellent travel and
transportation facilities as does New
Iberia and as a consequence, generally
low rates prevail.
An electric trolley line system con-
meets New Iberia with its sister city
of Jeanerette, located in tie eastern part
of the parish. A model automobile
highway connecting the two cities,
parallels the interurban and the Teche.
With an excellent system of highways
permeating every section of the Parish,
travel by land is indeed pleasurable.
While considerably dependent upon
the agricultural resources of the sur
sounding country, numerous &actorles
are operating within the confines Of the'|
city. For instance in New Iberia and
immediate vicinity are to be found such
factories - sugar, rice, cotton gins,
creamery, lumber mills, tabasco factor
les. canning factories, feed mill, corn
elevators, foundry and machine shops, |
sash, blind and door factories, box fac
tory and ice factory.
The electric light and water works |
Of the city are municipality owned, and
