What do | admire in the Cath
Ollie Church 2" asks the Rev. DR..
Moffatt. He gives the following
reply: "There are seven things
which the Protestant Church might
initiate and which | admire in the
Catholic Church, and they are
these: First, emphasis of the
sanctity of the marriage vow ;
second, the pomp and dignity and
parade of the Church; third, the
central unifying authority OF the
Church; fourth, the tone Of con-
viction; fifth, femininity, as exem-
plifed in the honor paid the
Blessed Virgin Mary; sixth, pur-
gatory; and lastly, confession.

Father Deepen, editor of The
Record, of Louisville, KY. makes
the excellent suggestion that the
Knights Of Columbus ought to
undertake the establishment of a

project. The question is, woulC
Catholics support such a paper?

THE SPIRIT OF LENT MANY
WAYS OF DENYING ONESELF.

Christianity is essentially the re-
ligion of the cross. The best proof
that the Catholic Church is the
Church of Christ is the Lenten proc
lamation read throughout the world
in every Catholic Church 1t shows
that the Church is animated by the
spirit of Jesus Christ. From the
cradle to Calvary, His life was one of
self-denial. The sects that have
broken away from the Church have
taken the human only with them and
left the divine. The Catholic Church
alone speaks to us of modification.
In her alone we hear the echo of the
cross.
Why does the Church put up
crosses everywhere? 1t is to remind
us that the religion of Christ is the
religion of the cross-of self-denial
The follower of Christ must bear the
| cross. "Take up thy cross daily and
| follow Me- said Our Lord. There
| fore the Church sets apart a special
portion of the year called Lent when
it is strictly enjoined that we should
mortify ourselves. Physicians say
that the Church has wisely chosen a
| good time for Lent-the spring sea-
son when nature begins to feel a new
| life and needs a rein.
! The Church is a wise teacher and
tells us that we must deny ourselves
if we are to gain our sanctification.
~
umph over our inclinations and pas
sions. The true Christian is not a
sensualist given over to the gratifica
ton of the senses. st. Paul said: i
chastize my body and bring it into
subsection The follower of Christ
must subdue himself by discipline
The body is like wild horse. II
must be tanned and made to obey the
dictates of reason. The soul must
rule the body; the spiritual must tri
umph over the material. The great
est conqueror is he who conquers
himself.
There are many ways of denying
ourselves besides fasting and absti
nence. The Church has wisely mod
Grated the fast as much as possible
Those obliged to fast are allowed il
the morning, full meal and ther
eight ounces of food in the evening
The doctors tell us that great many
people eat too much. Many of the i'll:
of life are due to overeating.
Your own personal modification i!
a matter of your own conscience
You must not injure your health, blu
a little Inconvenience is the intention
of fasting. If fasting agrees will
one, what merit is there in it? W.
fast to do penance for our sins AM
to help us to mortify the deeds of thu
flesh. There are many ways of deny
ing oneself sensible pleasures. If yo'
are not hardy and ready to suffer yol
are not men. Behold the soldier OF
: the battlefield cheerfully going with
out food or drink for "a hours. If h.
complains he is kicked off the field a
an old woman. Be broad, generou
and unselfish in your sacrifices.
Christianity is the religion of TIL
crucifxion-of the curling of tn
senses. Most of the evils and sins o
the world spring from the gratifica
ton of the senses. The season o
Lent should be a time of self-denia
and every day should see acts of NOR
tification and the triumph of the spiri
over the flesh. Let us be followers o
: Christ in this regard Who says: g
, bava oivan vpll an ayamnla IF an
: man will be My disciple, let him TAX
: up his cross and follow Me-"

In Communication to us
from Mr.. Jos. A. Leblanc of Del.
cambre he requested of us to call
the attention of the Police Jury
to the condition of the public road
leading from Bob Acres Station
to Delcambre. Mr.. Leblanc says
it is impossible. Only few
days ago buggy was so begged
that it required four mules to get
the vehicle out Of the hole. He
stated further he could not un-
derstand such conditions in a
prosperous Parish and attributed
the blame more to Indifference on
the part Of our people than any
thing else. Every bad piece of
road in iberia Parish should re-
ceive immediate attention, even
though bonds have been sold to
gravel the roads. The time the
people of the Parish need the
roads is now, while they are haul
ing their crops to the markets.
Unless some relief is given in
many sections of the Parish some
of the farmers may probably not
be in position to save their crops
at all. This would be unfortunate.

Whether the Sugar Cane By

operation in the near future, we
are unable to state, however, on
Tuesday of this week, Messrs. 3.
w. Marsden, one of the original
promoters, accompanied here
Mr.. Larkin and Mr.. Taylor, Of
Philadelphia, to look over the
Plant. After their departure 1t
was rumored that they were ne
gotiating its purchase and Ill
tended putting in some additional
machinery with the intention of
putting the mill in operation in
the near future. We hope this re-
port has some foundation of truth
in it at this time. We have been
deceived so much with reference
to the Plant that we have begun to
lose faith in everything we hear.

Almost every week more OF
our citizens attest their belief in
the future prosperity of New Ibe.
ria by investing in real estate with
the intention Of either making re-
pairs, or of constructing suitable
buildings to meet the needs OF
their own business. This week
the sale of the Carl Richter prop
erty which comprise several
houses and large tract of land
running 300 feet on Jane Street
to the Bayou Teche was taken
over by the proprietors Of the A.
M. Bernard Wagon Works. From
what we could ascertain, it is the
intention of the owners to build
at some near future time a large
hard wood saw mill to supply
timber for their extensive and
growing wagon works. This adj
ditional enterprise to New Iberia
will be quite an acquisition in
more ways than one because aside
from giving employment to al
large number of artizans the pro-
duct will be converted into wa
CONS Of everv description and
shipped to all parts Of the United
States. This concern has a rep
utation Of building the most dur
able wagons Of any establishment
in the United States and the ter
ritory they cover is unlimited.
As soon as titles are perfected, the
vacant property on the East Side
Of the Southern Pacific depot
owned bv the heirs Of the Sentell i
estate will also be taken over by
Mr.. NJ. Piraro. The property adj /
ioins his present place Of business,
md Mr.. Piraro has sufficient conf
lence in the future Of New Iberia
o make other investments in real
state.
