Notices have been issued By
City Physician Carstsns and
Mayor Sealy, addressed to the
property owners to the effect that
it is now encumbent upon them to
get busy at once and clean their
yards. of all grass, weeds, ETC.. as
well as all outhouses that require
attention. There are ordinances
relative to hedges and other
shrubbery that hang over the
sidewalks and they too must lie
removed at once before inspector
make the rounds of the City. Ia
numerous places, but little atten-
ton is given by the renters Of
property to cess pools and stag
nant water that is menace TO
the health of the community, and
it behooves everybody. especially
during the warm weather to give
this their immediate attention.
Unless the citizens generally work
with the members of the Board Of
Health in trying to keep New he
ria free of epidemic and sickness,
but little can be accomplished.
SO far the officials have been very
considerate of the residents, and
many are inclined to disregard
the law for that reason. It is the
intention to see that all premises
are put into a sanitary condition
and those whose yards don t come
up to the requirements will suffer
penalties if they disregard the
warnings issued to them. SO let
all get busy and help keen New
Iberia in the sanitary condition it
should be. In a couple Of months
we will have one of the most
c complete sewerage systems in the
State and then no excuses will be
accepted if any property is found
in al unsahitarv condition.

ONLY A LITTLE THING

The secular press is carrying the
story of how a crawfish, not over
three inches in length, shut down a
big iron plant in Wheeling, w. Va.
and threw 5000 men for the time be-
ing in idleness. The crawfish had
travelled from the river through the
pump plant to the city reservoir and
thence through the water mains and
pipes until it reached the meter of
the LaBelle Iron Works. Lodging in
the meter it shut off the supply and
stopped the whole plant. Only little
thing, but it cost the plant the loss
of considerable time and money.
Only a cigarette, but it turned a
bright boy into a nicotine reservoir.
He failed in college and failed in bus
mess because his heart and brain
were poisoned by the "little white
SLAYER"
Only a social glass, but it turned a
brilliant youth into a poor old drunk
ard. Money gone, friends gone, loved
ones desolate and broken-hearted, he
finally fell under the wheels of a
rushing locomotive and his poor soul
went out into the night of eternal
gloom.
Only "little sin" unrepented of an
unforgiven, but it brings on the sinner
the full penalty of the law that de-
clares that the soul that sineth shall
die. "The wages of sin is DEATH"
In view of the tremendous posi-
bilities of good and evil that are
, to be found in almost every thought
and word and action, we sometimes
wonder if there are any little things"
in this world. A tiny wire may carry
a spark that will blow up noun
tain. A word may create influences
that will shake nation. The life of
a humble peasant has revolutionized
the world and will sooner or later
give it civilization beyond anything
for which we have yet had the cour-
age to hope. Surely there are no
little things,
The effort at pleasing mother"
should be cultivated in the childish
heart Early in life they should be-
gin the cultivation of thought and eff
fort with reference to the gratifica-
ton of her wishes and of making her
happy. If they would do this they
would find daily opportunities for
speaking kind words and rendering
such helpful services and showing
such noble traits of character in
dealings with others, as would glad
den the heart and Tighten the cares Of
mother in way too often thought of.
If boys, if girls, could but realize
he Indebtedness to their mothers,
Vhey certainly would generally be very
much anxious about pleasing them.
The great men of the world, who
have acknowledged their indebted
ness to their mothers, took delight in
pleasing them. But most of all their
noble lives, their courage in doing
right and their honorable achieve
ments in public life were especially
pleasing to their noble mothers.
Hardly a higher tribute can be paid
to any young mans success in life
than at pleased his mother"

HOME CIRCLE COL UMh.
A COMMENTED SPIRIT.

Remember, if you have only what is
called an ordinary home, that the
great deliverers Of the world have all
come from such a home. And there
may be seated reading at your even
ing stand a child who shall be potent
for the ages. Just urroll the scroll
of men mighty in church ard state,
and you will find they nearly all
come from log runs out in the third
of fourth generation. You cannot
find in all history cabin or poor
homes. Genius almost an instance
where the fourth generation of extra
ordinary people amount to anything.
Columbus from a weaver's hut, De-
mosthenes from a cutters cellar,
Bloomfield and Missionary Cary from
shoemaker's bench, Arkwright from
a BARRIERS shop and he whose name is
high over all in the earth and air and
sky from a manger.
Let us all be content with such
things as we have. God is just as
good in what he keeps away from US
as in what he gives us. Even a knot
may be useful if it is at the end of a
thread. The spider draws poison out
of flower; the bees get honey out
of thistle, but happiness is heaven
ly elixir and the contented spirit ex-
tracts it not from the rhododendron
of the hills, but from the lilly of the
valley.

Official Pen Cutter.

For ordinary persons the great draw
back to quill pens is the constant
mending they require. Alexander / Of
Russia found it essential to engage a
servant for the sole duty of cutting
pens. He was instructed to have a
supply of not less than u hundred
quilts always ready for use. This num-
Der was by no means excessive, for
the monarch would never use the same
pen twice. Even the writing of
signature spoiled a pen, in his opin-
ion, for subsequent use. The quill cut
ter receil I'd salary of SLIGO a year,
and accompanied the czar on all his
journeys, even travelling with him ITO
the field against Napoleon.

Many Americans Enter Canada.

Three and half times as many i'm
migrants from the United States into
western Canada arrived during the
first nine months of last year as dur
ing the same period in 1915, according
to figures furnished by the department
of immigration. The number of such
persons, for the first nine months of
the year 1915 was 1927; for 1915, A.
022, and for 1917, 29,91S. The amount
Of cash and effects brought in by these
immigrants does not show the same
proportionate increase for this year
over 1915 as did the number of per-
sons. The total Of cash and effects
was $2,156,S76 for 1915. S3,319,943 for
1916 and $5G14,G33 for 1917.

If you want cheerfllness in your

genial hearts. Plan to live in the
sunshine; if there is a pleasant room
in your dwelling, live there; if there
is a dark room, shut it up; keep the

The people who have so much sym
pathy for those who have gone be-
yond all earthly help, might use a
little Of it in every day life to a good
and excellent purpose. The idea Of
kicking people when alive and then
for a person to weep over their grave
when dead is what too many of us
do and is one reason why the world is
no better today. Speak your kind
words to the living, and when you
are dead you need not care what is
said of you.
