Morgan City Offered
Labor Convention

The Chamber Of Commerce was in
with the Lake Charles
Chamber of Commerce regarding the
1920 Labor Convention of the south.
The local Chamber of Commerce in
vestigated thoroughly the possibili-
ties for providing for such crowd
as would come to Morgan City for
such a convention, and decided that
there was not sufficient accommoda-
tion in the city for such a convep-
tion
This fact was wired to the Lake
Charles Chamber of Commerce. It
1t is regrettable that this city has
to let the chance for the convention
slip away because of the lack of hotel
accommodations. The continual de-
velopment of this city and section
will bring this need face to face with
citizens of Morgan City. A S25OO0
hotel here would be paying propo-
sition.

!. We remember how Doctor GLADDEN.
Used to preach upon friendship. which
he regarded as the practical form OF
religion. When a mans heart Is right
he is quite sure to be friendly. There
is no hate, no envy, no suspicion, no
discourtesy, no Ill temper. To be with
out these is the fulfilling Of the law
which Is love, and that is religion.
Much more Of 1t is needed than ap-
pears in business, in society, in poll
tics. In fact, there is room for good
deal more. The test Of mans re-
igion Is found In the extent and quail
ity Of his friendship. It must not be
the friendship Of etiquette simply, nor
even Of good Fellowship. It iss the
habit or condition Of a person that
grows out Of his spirituality. There is
not much use in mans participating
In all the means Of grace II he hates
his neighbOr. And yet how many there
are Of that kind. There is nothing
that the coming reconstruction Of So
ciety needs 20 much as friendship. Il
Is sort Of treason to neglect IT.

STRANGEsT OF SHIP FREAKS
British Inventor Must At Least Be
Credited With the Possession Of
Much Imagination.

Since that memorable day long ago
when our rude f0refathers first ven
tured afloat In their dugout canoes
many very curious ships have been
built. Perhaps the most extraordinary
Of all these freaks was the steamer
COnnector, which was launched in
British waters in 1853.
The Connector was built In three
sections, each Of which was, so to
speak. ship Of itself. The bow or
forward section. which was fitted up in
the usual way, was jointed to the mid
ship section by means Of huge bolt
in such q manner that. as the ship
pitched, It could rise or fall quite In
dependently Of the other two sections
Thus, as the ship met the waves q
kind Of wriggle ran along the hull.
First the bow section rose. then the
midship section followed suit, and
finally the stern section wriggled up
ward.
The craft passed safely through
some very severe trials. and even ven-
tured out in heavy weather. The idea
was to build up ships In sections like
trains, 50 that any particular section
could be dropped at the various ports
Of call.

MUST BE ATTICS SOMEWHERE
Possibly They Differ From Those Of
an Earlier Generation, But They
Are Not All Gone.

An eastern newspaper laments the
passing Of the attic. The modern
home Is without this historical mu-
scum Of the family. And as for the
flat-why. the attic Of the fiat Is q
miserable little storeroom in the base
ment Where the attic once flour.
tshed in the old-fashioned mansion
with the clock on. the stairs, there is
now a luxurious suite for the cook, or
for the boys And the walls have pa.

plumbing and all that sort Of thing.
Where are the trivial fond records of
the family's long or recent past now

In this section Of the country we
take heart Of grace. A sale to aid the
cause of woman suffrage reveals the
outpouring, II not of the old familiar
attic, yet something that must have
taken its place-possibly the larger
and more frequent closet with q win-
dow in It,"
The attic may 60, but the attic
spirit remains. Somebody In the world
somewhere wants these things. They
come out and are snapped up." II
there is no attic in the modern house
there must be something that CORE
spends to 1t. Is it a big closet some
where, or is there a room at the top
that still gathers the odds and ends?-

FORCED TO WAIT FOR NEWS
People Got Information Slowly Before
the lnvention Of the Telegraph
and The "WireIesA"

Today when the latest news Of the
day Is flashed all over the world by
wire and wireless, we are apt to
forget the difficulties OF gathering
news before telegraphs were In gen.
eral operation. The earliest fast news

BY Marco Polo. who relates that Geng-
his Khan. ruler of Chinese Tartary In
the thirteenth century. sent relays Of
couriers across the country, covering
about 300 miles each day.
David Hale, manager Of the New
York Journal Of Commerce from 1927
until some time In the 3O's, found his
paper shut out Of q news-gathering
combination, so he organized an inde-
pendent service. He first created
private news boat service. which en-
abled him to scoop all his competitors

revolution to this country. During the
exciting period Of Jackson's admins
tration he established horseback ex-
press service from Philadelphia to
New York, which resulted in the insti-
tuition Of the celebrated Halifax ex-
press"
Richard Haughton, founder Of the
Boston Atlas, used relays of horses to
gather election news in Massachu-
sets. and he was able to print the
returns Of the election Of 1880 at 9
o'clock on the morning after election.

Spring Sales Larger Than
Ever. Business Good,
Say Morgan City
Merchants
|City's Prosperity Attested BY.
Splendid Business of Local
Dealers This
Season

Morgan City merchants are enjoy
ing a splendid business this spring,
and their large sales are evidence OF
the city's prosperous condition.
With the large payroll of the Union
Bridge & Construction Co. combined
wieth that of the sawmills and other
industries of the city, there is large
flux of money in local trade channels.
The fact that many of the residents
|of the city who have been here since
the establishment of the shipyard will
soon be leaving has not tended to
cause a slump in the business Cir
cles, but it is thought by some that
business would be even better had the
people something definite to look for
ward to in the future.
Saturdays business was larger
than any day this year." said Mr..
Henry Loeb, of the Henry Loeb Co.
"and the business we are doing this
spring is larger than any previous
year since we have been in business"
Mr.. Loeb went on to say that if
busines would continue at this rate.
he would soon have to enlarge his
already big store, putting in more
goods to meet the demands of his
patrons. Mr.. Loeb believes that if
the shipyard does not continue to
operate, the merchants of the city
are bound to feel the loss to the city,
btt that there was much possible for
the future of Morgan City

sk$pticism of the city's future, much

people themselves if they only make

was present, and took occasion to ex-
plain to those present that it was
good plan for the city not to bond
itself to the limit for one purpose, as
other needs may arise in the future
that could not be provided for if
such was the case. The council dis
cussed at length the matter Of build
ing the local streets, and the mayor
decided to engage Mr.. E. Pnilpot, ci-
vii engineer, to go over the streets
and make the plans for carrying out
the improvements. Mr.. Philpot will
start today to lay out the plans.

old age was the cause of his demise
Mr.. Schumpf was born in 1885, and
