DISTRICT COURT, La, AT
FRANKLIN, IN MEMORY OF
SEN. r. F. BROUSSARD, DEAD.

To the Honorable w. C. Baker, Judge
Of the 23rd Judicial District Of the
State of Louisiana:
Your committee appointed to draft
resolutions on the death of Hon. Rob-
ert F. Broussard, beg leave to submit
the following:
Whereas, Senator Robert F. Brous-
sard, lawyer, patriot, statesman, died
at his home in New iberia on the 10th
day Of April, 1918, when his hcncrs
were bright and his usefulness great;
And whereas, it is meet and proper
for us to record the virtues and give
lustre to the memory of one who has
done his part well in life towards his
people and State,
Therefore, be it resolved that by
the death of Hon. Robert F. Brous-
sard the Bar has lost an able advo-
cate the State one of her foremost cit
liens and the nation one Of her wise
and able legislators. Mr.. Broussard

1886, when he was elected representa-
tive to the United States Congress
from the 3rd Congressional District
Of the State Of Louisiana. He served
continuously as Congressman for
eighteen years, when he was elected
United States Senator from his State.
He was performing the duties of this
high office when death overlook him.
He executed the duties Of these Of

fidelity and self abnegation.
Of him, it may be truly said, that he
was called upon to perform many du-
ties of important trusts and was
found wanting in none.
Resolved that we tender to bis wild
ow our deepest sympathy in her be-
reavement,
Resolved that these resolutions be
published and a copy thereof be sent
to his family.
Resolved that this Court do now adj
journ in respect to the memory of

A War Bond of 1864

While searching through some old
papers for valuable records this
week, William Couret found a re-
ceipt for $500, issued to his grandma
Their in 1864 upon payment of that
sum for Confederate refunding
bonds. The liberty bonds Of that pc
Rod bore four per cent. and were au-
thorized by act of the Confederate
congress on February II, 1864. His
grandmother, Mrs. Jean L. Bernard,
subscribed for $500 worth and the re-
ceipt is dated at Opelousas, June 27,
1864, and signed by "A Desmare, C..
5. A. Depository" Mr.. Couret was
born that year and was stricken with
yellow fever. His grandfather con-
tracted the disease from him and
died.-Lafayette Gazette.

Community That Is Not Prosper
GUS Cannot Attract New
, Residents.
IS LIKE Big CORPORATION
People Are Stockholders and When
They Spend Their Money Away
From Home They Deplete
! ~ Its Capital.
(Copyright.)

(COpyTlSnt.)
There is nothing deader than a dead
town. Try as hard as it may to con-
ceal the facts, the truth is written all
over 1t so that he who runs may read.
No camoutlage Of bluff and buster can
conceal the true situation from anyone
who comes within the limits of the
community. A dead town is dead and
that's all there is to it.
The worst Of It is that once town
dies it stays dead. There have been
exceptional cases in which dead towns
have been revived have taken on new
life and prospered, but these are mere
ly the exceptions that prove the rule.
The fact that a town can seldom
"cOme back is easily explained. Tie
growing and prosperous town today
is the one that can attract new resi-
dents and new capital. 1t is one that
can offer attractive inducements for
the location OF new industries. The
dead town offers no attraction to out
side capital. A man looking for a
place to launch q new business or u
new location for an old industry, is
not going to pick out dead town.
He is going to select town in which
money is plentiful, a town whose bust
ness men are progressive and whose
residents, as whole, are prosperous
and contented. There are too many
live and thriving towns in the world
for q man to risk his future In one
that Is dead. This Is the reason that
a town, once dead, almost always re-
mains dead.
Town Like Corporation.
There is just one thing. ordinarily,
that kills town In the first place and
that is lack Of money. A town is
just like corporation and the money
possessed by its Inhabitants is its cap
ital. If this capital is depleted the
town will fail just as the corporation,
whose capital is depleted through poor
management or other causes, fails.
And just as the corporation which has
once failed can seldom retrieve It's lost
fortunes, the town which has failed
cannot often "come back"
The capital Of q community is de-

Prohibition Sentiment In St. Mary

The Banner supported this amend
ment because it knew and knows now
that it would have proven great
benefit to our State and her people
Louisiana is the first State whose leg
islature rejected the amendment. We
were truly sorry to know that she, III.
stead of being one of the leaders OF
the States advocating this great and
necessary reform, is in the position of
being forced to adopt the law after
thirty-six other States Of the Union
adopt it, which in our opinion, will be
done as sure as fate.-St. Mary Ban
ner.
Our three representatives voted for
the adoption Of the prohibition
amendment. St. Mary is called wet
parish-that is, we license saloons
here, but they are properly conducted
and are not places where boisterous
people congregate to chafe the sensi-
bilities of the public. We are proud
Of the three men who represent this
parish. They voted for what they be-
ieved to be right, and the Waterman
honors them for the conscientious ex-
ercise of duty to the best interest of
the people. One of them-Mr. Weed
er, owns saloon in conjunction with
a big mercantile establishment, and
ne put the country's welfare above
rersQQal interest for which he de-
serves the honor and esteem of his
fellows. This expression is our
share of that sentiment.-Weekly

pleted when It's money Is spent away
from home In way that brings no
return benefit to the community. 1t
takes no great amount of thought to
be able to realize that the town, like
the individual, cannot last long II 1t
Is paying out more money than II
takes in. That does not mean that q
prosperous town is one In which the
people do not spend any money. ON
the contrary, prosperous town Is
one In which the people do spend mon
ey but it Is one in which they spend
the money at home. AS long as the
money is spent ut home. the town
gains by having 1t kept in circulation,
but when it is spent away from home,
either by being sent to the mail order
houses or by shopping trips to other
cities, the towns capital is impaired
to that extent and if enough money is
spent away from home in that way,
the town eollapses and virtually goes
into bankruptcy just as does the cor
poration which dissipates it's capital
The people of a community are apt
to overlook the fact that they are
stockholders in theft town and that
their fortunes are bound up with those
of the community as whole. They
do not realize that if their town fails
they will fail with it. They--Or many
of them at least-send their money
away to the mail order houses in the
great cities, without realizing that they
are impairing the capital of their own
corporation and that if enough OF them
pursue that course they will force Their
corporation into certain bankruptcy
Merchants Not Only Ones Hurt
Many customers of mail order
houSe say that they are under no
obligation to trade with their home
merchants and tlAs may be true They
overlook that fact that the business
men Of town do much for their com
munity and are entitled, in return for
what they do, to the support of the
people in the community, but leaving
this out of consideration, they over
look the fact that they are bringing
about their own downfall when they
drain their town of its lnOney-its
capital.
The home merchant will not he the
only one that will be hurt when the
town "goes broke The merchant
can reduce his stock and cut down his
expenses and get along some way or
he can sell out and move to some 9TH
er town which has not been 50 blind
to its own welfare. 1t is the great
body Of the people of the community
including all those who have sent their
money away to other cities instead Of
spending it at home, that suffers most
when the hard tues come.
The time for all the people to pull
together for live town is while the
town is still live and not after it Is
dead, for when a town dies it is q
long time dead-if not forever.
