On Thursday morning a large
wagon load of syrup barrels
passed through en- route g Der
ouen for the use of Mr.. D, u. Del
cambre who operates cane mill
in that vicinity. The barrels were
all made in copperage at Cen
terville. New Iberia for I'.anN
years enjoyed several copperage
shops but when the numerous lit
tie syrup mills went on. az ope-
ration there was no more work
for the copperage plants. Now
that syrup is so valuable
would it not be profitable for the
small farmers to adopt Mr.. Del
cambre's policy by Doing their
own grinding. In remote sections
far from sugar refining industries
it seems to the writer it you'd be
profitable to erect syrup mills

TN tuesday next the qualified
voters Of the Fourth Ward will
vote on the proposition to incur
an Indebtedness of 100000 for
the construction Of model gravel
road in that Ward in accordance
with an ordinance drawn up by
Road District No. + of which Hon.
Adrien Gonsoulin is the presi-
dent. The tax to be imposed for
this important work to run not
longer than forty years and the
proceeds to be used exclusively
for the building and maintenance
Of a gravel road that is badly
needed in that section of the Par
ish. From what we learn there
is some little opposition to the
movement. We sincerely hope
the property holders in that Ward
will not make the mistake of cast,
ing their vote against this prop
osition. If the farmers would
only stop to consider what a small
tax would do in giving them a
highway fit to use in any and all
kinds Of weather, it would get
the unanimous support of the peo-
pie in that section. A road tax is
an investment and not a burden,
as thousands Of dollars is saved
annually when the proper mater
ial is used in road construction.
In this instance it is the intention
to use gravel such as is used in
St. Mary Parish and there are but
few of the people in Iberia who
do not appreciate the value of
that highway. The wear and
tear on vehicles alone under the
present system cost the farmers
annually five times as much as
the little tax to be submitted next
Tuesday. A well graveled road
with the proper drainage is the
best investment that can be made
and as the good people of the
Loreauville section are the most
philosophical in the Parish, we
feel assured they will give APP
proval to the worthy project.
Vote the small tax and enhance
the value of every foot of land III
your Ward. Once the work is
completed the other Wards of the
Parish will fall right into line
and Iberia Parish will have net
work of public roads that will be
a pride to every good citizen.
Ground was broken this week
on Bank Ave. for the commence
ment Of New Iberia's sewerage
system and already several car
loads of main pipes has been
stretched along Iberia Street
preparatory to placing it under
the ground as fast as the excava-
ton is finished. 1t is the inten-
ton of the Board not to disturb
any thOroughfare until all OF the
material is on hand so that the
work will in no manner interfere
with traffic. BY January first,
1913 it is more than probable this
internal improvement that our
citizens have been praying for
these many years will be COM
pleted and all surface closets did
away with. In fact it is hoped that
connections will be so made that
many properties now suffering for
good drainage will also get the
benefit Of it. The sewerage sys-
tenn should be so arranged
that the people will pay the tax
cheerfully every year until the
entire Indebtedness is wiped off
the slate.

RESOLUTIONS B. P. O. ELKS.

For over half century the life
of Captain John T. White was
prominently identified with that
of New liberia. Without noise Of
publicity, without the clamor Of
notoriety. without arousing the
plaudits Of the multitude, he ac-
complished his task, finished his
journey. earning fully the re-
ward of respect, honor and con-
fidence of the community. In
silence he softly treaded the path
of destiny; the rosy, thorny road
of endeavor was negotiated with
heart full of hope, faith and
charity.
Fitting through the valley of
the shadow of death, the living
smile of happiness, Of content
ment, the impalling belief in i'm
mortality and another world, an
nounced the end of his journey.
In a sense he was not material
list; was Indifferent to the acquisi-
ton of worldly wealth and took
little interest in enterprise that
threatened character, integrity,
reputation. He was no captain of
industry, or adventurer in the
field of speculative commerce and
industry. He stood for a clean
morality, high spirituality, strong
saintliness that could regenerate,
revitalize the tainted sources Of
life. In prayer he discovered re-
demption, broader vision, a
loftier purpose Of humanity. A
devout Christian, Jealous Elk,
fervent disciple of modern fra
ternalism, the seeds of universal
brotherhood were sown with the
skill Of the Master and made to
bear fruit with the care and tai

flash Of sudden intensity Of effort
ever disturbed his horizon no
effulgent imagery and tracery OF

His reward. is not in the coin
Of the realm, minted on the bat
tlefeld of selfishness, ambition
and glory; his fee is not in the
iron cross of recognition for
trophies Of captives and towards;
his pay was manifested in the su-
preme pleasure, the hearts

,tantial achievement and resiii. Of
his life's work. a fitting finish to
