CALVARY ASYLUM OF COM
MANDERY NO. Is, KNIGHTS
TEMPLER,

The Grim Reaper has again in
vaded the ranks of Calvary Com
mandery No. Is of Knights
Templer and summoned to his
eternal rest our beloved brother
Sir Knight John 7. White. The
history of masonry in this sec
ton during the past half century
has felt the influence and the i'm
press Of the character of Sir
Knight White. Always a firm
and ardent believer in the tenets
and principles of the fraternity,
his service to the Order was char
acterized by constant and de-
voted loyalty. Discharging the
duties Of an important office in
the local Commandery with rare
ability and surprising merit, his
loss will be keenly felt by every
Knight. Therefore,
Be it resolved, by Calvary Com
mandery No. Is Of Knights
Templer, that in the death of Sir
Knight John T. White our Com
mandery not only suffers the loss
Of one Of it's best and most coz
secrated Knights, true exemplar
of our faith, but that the commun-
ity in which he was so long an ac-
tive and energetic worker, viii
miss the daily, friendly greeting.
of one of it's most splendid citi-
zens and Christian gentlemen.
Be it further Resolved, that
copies of this resolution and
tribute, be spread upon the res
ords Of the Conmandery; be Civ
en- to the press and transmitted
to the bereaved family of our de-
ceased brother and fellow-Knight.

WATERWAYS CONVENTION.

A meeting of the South Louisl-
ana Waterways Association is adj
vertised to take place at Lafay-
cite on Thursday next, August
Both at II o'clock A. NJ. The
purpose of this Association is co
press the Importance on Congress
to make appropriations to secure
water from the Atchafalaya
through the Teche and Vermllion
for permanent navigation, and to
make the Intercoastal a fresh
water inland waterway. through
a territory having thousands OF
tons of traffic to furnish the canal.
The Parishes interested are st.
Martin, Iberia, Vermilion, Lafay-
cite, st. Landry, Acadia, Cam
eron, Jefferson Davis and Calca-
sieu.~ The meeting will be adj
dressed by Senators Robert f.
Broussard Jos. E. Ransdell, Con-
gressmen Lazaro and Martin and
Messrs. Walter Parker and Leon
Locke. If this project meet with
favor at Washington it will be o.
great benefit to the Teche in more
ways than one. AS matters stand
to-day rice growers along the up
per banks Of the Teche are de-
prived from using the water for
irrigation of rice and thousands
of dollars has to be spent for
building wells to get water,
whereas with the Atchafalaya
water passing through the Teche
there will be an abundance OF
fresh water at all seasons Of the
year once this project is brought
to realization it will open up
navigation from the headquarters
of the Teche which will also be o.
great advantage to shippers.
The meeting promises to be
largely attended and all citizens
are invited to be present who are
at all interested in the project.
