Jury, were selling below par. The
money market wanted to see the

the request Of good roads people
and New Orleans bankers, the
change was made back to the old

When O Know
What Is Best, Ask
for it by Name
By j. r. HAMILTON
Former Advertising Manager Of Wanamakers, Philadelphia

If a man has anything he is proud OF, he gives it a name
whether it be a baby or a pair of boots. And the more ne IS proud
of it, the more he talks about it.
Nameless things are seldom good and never reliable. IT you
want to cut down your cost of living the very best way to do it is
to learn to ask only for standard articles.
When you know the name of a good maker of shirts or shoes,
of furniture or pianos, of hardware or underwear, Tx that name
definitely in your mind and remember it when you come to buy.
Do not allow strange things to come into your home any
more than you would allow strange people.
The brand and the trademark and the copyright are the let
tiers of introduction from the maker to you. In this way he
vouches for their responsibility and guarantees their good be-
havior in your home.
There is a name for every good product that is made. And
most of these names are known to every man and woman in
America. Manufacturers have spent hundreds of millions of dol.
lars to standardize these names in your mind. From the lining
of a dress to a laundry soap; from a cleanser to a baking powder;
from a suit Of clothes to a kit of tools; you could call every stand.
ard article on the market by name if you would only remember
to do SO when you come to buy.
1t is through your carelessness that lies and adulterations
creep in. The standard is set by good men, but the standard is
only maintained by you.
It is time for you to forget the generic name of every article,
and remember only the standard name of its quality.
In the advertising news Of this paper today you will find
many of these standard names and brands Of quality. This article
is written for the sole purpose Of r~emainding you to use those
names. It is only fair that you should do as much for these good
manufacturers as they are doing for you. It is only right that
you should help in this great standardization of good products
that is going on throughout America.
Begin now to ask by name for everything you buy. And you
win find your satisfaction growing greater day by day and your
optimism extending even down to your pocketbook.

new ROAD Law PLACES
ALL PARISH ROAD Dis
TRICTS UNDER AUTHOR
ITY OF POLICE JURIES

Contrary to what one might a
first conjecture, there was no stat
or local politics in the passage OF tn
new road legislation by the last spec
ial session Of the Legislature where
by supreme authority in road con
struction in the parishes has been re
turned to the Police Juries and while
District Supervisors r permitted
to be appointed, they are subordi
nate in authority to the Police Jury
A representative Of the Review
asked a member of the st. Mary
Road Commission for an expression
Of opinion as to this legislation ane
obtained the following:
The law originally permitted the
Police Jury of each Parish on it,
own initiative or acting upon the
petition of property holders to
create or sub-divide the parish into
road districts, of which the Police
Jury was the governing body. The
object being to permit local taxation
on the vote of local property holders
but concentrating the expenditure
Of monies under the supervision Of
the Police Jury, to ensur uniform
ity Of parochial work and concen-
tration of purchasing power and
economy in expenditure. This law
worked very satisfactorily in most
Parishes. In st. Mary . division Of
opinion arose a. to the location Of
tie model road in the 9Th ward, and
due to the demand Of some Of the
citizens Of that ward, the 1916
Legislature, passed q new road law
which gave the right to local proper
" holders to form themselves into
road districts and substituted -
their governing authority local po-
Nee jurors, local members Of the
school board and one citizen ap-
pointed by the Police Jury, making
this Board independent after its or
ganization Of the Police Jury.
This law has not worked sufi-
GENTLY satisfactory anywhere, to
overcome serious financial objection
which has arisen throughout the
e*ate. It was repealed ~ q general
necessity and not for any political
Or sectional reason.
The bonds Of these boards, acting
Independently Of the governing au-
thority Of the Police Jury, would not
bring par in the bond markets Of the
y. 8.

st. Mary men are real men. The
draft examination at Franklin Sat
urday found lot men out Of 1874
who are physically fit for service.
OF course, it may develop that they
will be exempted for causes that
have nothing to do with their physi-
cal fitness but the preliminary ex-
animation has shown that the ability
to fight is there and that if it is
backed up by a willingness to fight
st. Mary will have the honor of
sending forth her full quota of fine

still be far from exhausted.

The sugar cane growers shooI
hands with themselves over the crops

that 1917 is going to be better still

which local history bears out-if the
sugar growers prosper, every one
prospers. There may be q few ex.
ceptions, but for the most part the
planters Of st. Mary r progressive
and put their money into circulation
