SOCIETY or NATIONS.

.The news has comes from Versailles
that the consideration of the fourteen
principles upon which the worlds
peace is to he founded has been finish
ed by the peace delegates and an agree
ment has been reached for til formal
ton of society of nations.
The Frence Premier has said that

rloy the national strength outside It's
own country. 10th III war and i'll

The first association of the American
colonies was Il very loose one. 1t was
"A poor organization of the original
thirteen colonies that fought the Revo-
lutionary War. but, poor as 1t was. II
served the first purpose and led to a
more perfect union.
If the first result now should he al
imperfect organization in the attempt
at world federation. why even this viii
he going far; for it must be remeni
bered that the world was never one
nation, so far as human history re
cords. and the enduring works OF mel
are slowly wrought.
The grandest work of craftsmanship
that mankind ever gathered to bring Il
mass is now being considered in Yer
sailles. Even failure would never Oh
scure the glory of such an undertaking

Fol NJ SUFFRAGE.

Those who fnvor votes for women
and those who do not are about all
agreed that the Wo.ncil are going To
have the ballot. 1t is no longer Il qlfeS-
tjon of what is wise in this way. DEM
ocracy has penetrated to the American
home and IL quiet revolution i'll the
American family has occurred during
the past three decades which has
brought about everything for which adj
yocates Of the ballot for women are
demanding. \ law placing the ballot
in The hands of women will be a mere
ratification of what has long since
come to pass.
The father as the head of the family.
the wife who oheyS and the children
who fear. respect and idellize the
father are all of an age that has pass
ed away. Where these things are still
found they are the exceptions that
prove the rule of general change III

The present measure brings the race
question into the matter of female sui

the bill will pass easy enough.

Small; Farms In Boss1er.

The Steere Home Construction Com
pany. of Shreveport. having recently
bought the Potter Palmer plantation.
about eleven miles south Of Benton, on
the road to Bossier City. now AN
nounces its plan Of cutting up the big
plantation into farms of 10, 50. 100.
100 and 200 acres and selling it to
farmers who will live on the property.
The Steere Home Construction Com
pany is said to have paid about quar-
ter of million dollars for the 2l0O
acres. or better than 500 per acre.
1t is ii very fine property, and any
we'll wisher of Louisiana will be glad
to see the beginning of movement to
break up the great plantations of the
state into farms owned by the people
who work and live upon them. 1t
means, if the Steere Company carries
out its plan, that the white agrlcul-
tural population Of the parish Is to be
increased where it has long been most
scant. and that number OF neat farm
steads will take the place Of cabins
along the road from Benton to Bossler
CITY.

SERVING DESTINY.

The Chinese are defying the JapS
from under the wing of the peace dove
at Versailles The Allies are announc-
ing their decision to pull the remaining
teeth from the German dragon; the
Belslleviki are spreading their ''pizen-
Gus doctrine among the millions Of
Southern Europe and Asia and threat
ealing India and China with prOpagan-
ia. No wonder the French Premier is
pessimistic.
But, on the other hand, President
Wilson seems able to quiet the threat
ened storm in the West. and this means
union and strength that shall he able
to handle any threat from the East. 1t
is pressure from without as well as
congenial cohesion within that brings
about the solid formations in nature.

Mr.. Luther Carter. of Sarepta. was

1t is impossible to talk on any sui

The reporter is informed that the

This change will make the service
much better than heretofore.
Some of our merchants ut Sarepta
have received fine supply of fencing
wire and cotton seed. They probably
expect large cotton acreage and lots
Of new ground put in cultivation.
Now that the influenza epidemic has
passed here in this section, there Is no
reason why the Emma School should
not be reopened. a teacher should he
found. if possible, and the educational
part of the program again taken up in
earnest.

ST. IILENTiNE'S DAY.

Our pagan ancestors Of Northern
Eurorp had Il custom of sending love
messages on Il day in February and the
ancient Romans did the same on Feb
ruary 10TH of each year. Just why old
Saint Valentine has been honored III
this way is not clear. even to the Ency-
clopedia Rritannaca. The good old gen-
tleman was beheaded for his religions
sake in Rome about the year of our
Lord 30 Somehow his feast day and
the old pagan custom fell near TO-
.,ther in the same month ana the
Christian fathers just made them one
i'm honor Of the martyr.
But. perhaps. the real and more an
cicnt beginning of this custom of send
Ing tender messages to ones ladyl0ve
in the middle of February was in the
first dwelling place of our race, when
men and maidens began to look upon
one another in the spring. February
was originally spring month. but the
calendar WAS rather imperfect and
winter gained Il few hours each season
until April became the recognized sea-
son of first blossoms. spring poems ana
had colds. Most scientists believe that
these things We're peculiar TO February
when the months We're first named.
Anyway. tomorrow. the 18th, is st.
Valentines Day. and all lovers who
feel so moved can write appropriate
letters to the maids who seem faireSt
in their sight Most of those who have
not felt the divine sap of spring stir III
their veins generally wait until April
or Mayor even June. Still Others
make sport of the little love god by
sending comic verses: and few have
such had taste as to mail insulting
pictures and doggerel rhymes to an
cient spinsters and unlucky beauN.
If St Valentine really cares abou
such matters, may his influence b'
given altogether in the interest OF for
lorn maidenS and heartsore beauN. TO
the other kind do not need his goo'
offices
