We shall never again be divided or
wonder what stuff we are made Of.
And while we render thanks for
these things let us pray Almighty
God that in humbleness sof spirit we
may look always to Him for guild

in the spirit and purpose of service !;
that by His grace our minds may be
directed and our hands strengthen

and security and peace and the COM

vouchsafed all the nations of the

Thursday, the twenty-ninth day of
November, as day of thanksgiving
and prayer, and invite the people

that day from their ordinary occu-

Morgan City Daily Review,
Gentlemen:
In your issue Of 17th inst. under
FLASHES From the Parish Seat,
notice that your correspondent has
been misinformed as to the road
work in the fourth ward. and | am
sure you will welcome a correction.
! We have not finished our grad
ing Roughly, we have finished
about fifty per cent OF it. We sus-
pended operations at the request of
Our friends that the labor might be
used in harvesting our cane and
making sugar, and will resume our
grading as soon as sugar making is
over.
We nave an agreement with
Capt. ". D. Haden jot Galveston
to furnish our surfacing material
Of oyster shells frcm the Point az
Fere she'll seef south OF your city,
5ut he will not be Justified
in bringing his large dredging
outfit and line of lighters here to
furnish Us the small quantity of
shell We will use, about H0,n9o cA
yds., and we will have to wAic un-
til ne has other contracts large
enough to Justify the move over
II M, II hh
has contracts for about five times
the amount We will use.
The surfacini material is known
as mud shells, and is composed
of disintegrating oyster shells and
silt and when put on the road ce-
ments making a very hard, smooth
surface 1t is the same material
used on the roads from Houston to
Galveston and from Beaumont to
Port Arthur, and hundreds of miles
of other roads in southern Texas,
and giving general satisfaction. 1t
is said that the life of an automo-
bile tire on this surface is fifty per
cent longer than on gravel surface.
Wh3n we made our agreement
for the shells, Capt. Haden expect
ed to furnish the ballast for the
new rail road from Shadyside to
Patterson, and to furnish our ma
terial at the same time on board
cars at Patterson at cost of IS
cents per Gu. yd., and we were
quoted freight rate of % cents
to this point 1t now appears that
the railroad will not purchase these
shells for some time and hence we
are figuring on an all-water trans
portation at considerable less cost.
Our figures show that our roads
can be built with this material for
40 per cent less than with gravel
and clay binder, and we think it will
give us more satisfactory road
Yours very truly,
l. S. WOOSTER.

seen a vessel built Of any other eS-

as launches or in the selection Of

it close at hand; already many

And the men here are capable Of
producing satisfactory results. In
these days Of improved woodwork

wright, once the autocrat of his
trade, is largely supplemented and
compressed air now does most Of
the work OF fastening the shipyard

The wooden shipyard crane or der
rick does all that, making saving
in time and money.
Another advantage Of this south
ern country is the small percentage
of time lost The winter climate is
delightful and the summers, while
they are longer, really do not attain
too much higher temperature than
is reached in New York City.
"There is one shipyard starting
in Morgan City, La, on the banks Of

miles west of New Orleans. This is
beautiful location with a natural

You should realize that catarrh is
an infection of the blood. This fact
has been agreed upon by specialists
