You must realize that your blood

removed from your blood before
you can expect real, rational relief
from the disease. And of course,
you know that you cannot reach

She is a. talkative young school

he operated on her, her chattering
preceding the operation almost drove
him mad. After the operation, though
he forgot all about that and did all he
could to alleviate her suffering.
The fourth day he dressed her
wounds and made her comfortable in
every way he could. Then she began
TO chatter and asked him question aft
err question, the last one being, doc
tor, how am l really now?"
He remembered his experience with
her talkative little tongue before the
operation. ooh, you're getting along

District Lecturer
At K. C. Meeting,

On last Sunday afternoon, despite the
very inclement weather prevailing
quite good attendance presented at
the meeting of the local council,
Knights of Columbus, to hear the talk
of Mr.. Adrien J. Caillouet, of Houma,
District Lecturer for the Knights of
Columbus. The weather prevented ma
ny from the country, or from any great
distance from being present, but all in
all the attendance was good, and the
lecturer delivered very interesting
and live talk on matters relating to
the good of the order, and work which
can be and is done by the councils in
the different localities. The greater por
tion of his talk however was intended
for members, and remains within the
four walls of the council.
After the meeting cigars, smokes and
light refreshments were served. At the
next meeting DR.. J. ]. Ago will deliver
a lecture, under the Good of the Or
der, his subject being christian Sci
ence" from the medical and the re-
igious viewpoint. A good attendance
is anticipated at that time to avail
of this treat.

District Convention
Last Tuesday,

On last Tuesday, as fixed by law, con
ventions were held in the eight congres
sional districts of the state at the place
designated by the State Democra-
tic Executive Committee. The purpose
of the conventions was to select two dc
legates for the Constitutional Conven-
toin in each of the districts.
In the third congressional district
the convention assembled in Thibodaux
at the court house, at noon. Delegates
were or should have been here from the
parishes of st Martin, Vermlllion, La
fayette, Iberia, St Mary, Terrebonne,
Assumption and this parish. Each were
allotted designated number, but
IN many of the parishes not half the
number qualified for the position of de-
legates to this convention. This parish
had its full complement, thirteen in
number, as did most of the nearby pa
rishes.
The convention was called to order.
Judge Philip Gilbert made chairman,
and Miss Palmer of st Mary secretary.
There were four candidates nominated
as delegates at large to the Consttitu-
tional Convention. Senator Emil Sund-
berry, Mr.. L. o. Pecot, Mr.. Numa Mon
tet and Mrs. A. A. Storm of St Mary

Live Topic At
N. 0. Conference.

The divorcement of the Atchafalaya
and Red Rivers was the topic of a two
day conference of representative citi-
zens from all sections of Louisiana,
held in New Orleans Monday and Tues
day of this week. The people on the
4Atchafalaya favoring the enforcement
and the people Of the southern portion
of the state opposing, because of the
extra water which woudll have to find
its way through the Mississippi to the
gulf, and the fact that the levees are
taxed to the limit at present in holding
the same within bounds. The confe-
renee compromised by agreeing to a
system of dykes to relieve the Atcha-
falaya, the Mississippi getting more of
the water, but not as much as if the
two rivers were divorced. Lower La
fourche was represented at the confe-
renee by delegation in opposition.
The local association was represented
by President George Payne. The local
Association however took no stand, one
way or the other, considering the pro
position an engineering one, and too
much of problem to be solved by
mere laymen.

Minimum Prices
Suggested For Sugar.

| According to press reports this week
the special committee appointed by
the American Cane Growers Associa-
ton, this week advised the different
manufacturers the prices that should
obtain, as the minimum for sugar.
Advicess the same authority states,
were sent the different planters, and
they were accordingly timely and daily
advised of the prevailing and mimi
mum figures. While nothing is said
regarding the amount to be paid the
game grower per ton, it is assumed the
vailing pricpee orahsnsi Mi III gdretwe
prevailing price during the season will
obtain, and settlement made according
ly.The individual selling his cane byt he
ton is usually paid on the price prevail
ing during the period of weeks
he delivers the cane, and it is
fair to assume the rule has not been
changed, consequently any increase af-
ter the season would not rebound to the
grower. Following are the prices issued
during this week, as taken from the
imes-Picayune:-
Plantation granulated, 9 1-2 cents,
less 2 per cent off plantation granula-
ted, not exceeding twenty points lower;
white clarified, 88 3-4 cents net; choice
yellow clarified, 1-2 cents net; prime
yellow clarified, 8 cents; off yellow cla-
rifed, no more than fifty points be-
low prime yellow clarified; washed raw
sugar, forty points above 90 test raws,
at New York quotations as basis. The
New York quotation on 96 test raws
Monday was 1-2 cents.
All prices are based on New Orleans
freight rates."

The fourth roll call for the American
Red Cross is now being called in this
parish. On last Sunday Mr.. James Cas-

Committeeman of the American Le-

short, crisp, and to the point address
at the court house at ten thirty o'clock
to a email but appreciative audience.
On that day and several days this

Central Fire
Station Anticipated
Get w. S S

! Considerable interest is being evi-
denced locally regarding the establish
ment of a central fire station for this
city, Il apears the insurance require
ments exact some central point at
whch all fire paraphernalia must be
collected and kept, and further that
a keeper must remain in charge con-
stantly, whether the fire department be
paid or a volunteer department.
In consequence much talk has been
started, and possibly more than talk,
sabout the necessity and advisability of
the various companies disposing of
their respective holdings with
a view of all joining
in together and establishing a
centrally located fire station, where all
paraphernalia can be kept, and
Ato which point the members of the
different companies would report on
the sending in of a fire alarm. 1t is hop
ed however that the property can be Sc
cured at a reasonable amount and that
the establishment of the station will be
central in fact, as well as in name,
further, that a permanent building,
ornamental as we'll, will be erected.

HI KluX KIan

There was launched some month
ago, in 1915, in the State of Georgi:
Itwhat purports to be the Knights of tn,

Thanksgiving night 1915 on Stont
Mountain, near Atlanta and there a.
midnight, under a blazing fiery cross
they took the oath of allegiance to the
Invisible Empire, Knights of the KU
Klux Klan."
1t is contended, but we believe wrong
fully, that the need for such an organi.
zation is just as pressing now as il
ever was. "Its purpose is to inculcate
the sacred principle and noble ideals of
chlvalry, the development of character
the protection of the home and the
chastity of womanhood, the exemplifica
tlon OF pure patriotism, the preserva-
ton of American ideals and the main
tenance of white supremacy"
Has it come to this! Are we of the
southland in need of such reminders.

pies? With all due respect to the
founders and organizers, we consider
an organization admitting the necessi-
ty for the inculcation of such principles

a reflection in our belief in the AL

Georgia, is not surprising, remember
ing some of the outrages perpetrated
IN that State, but that such should be
needed in Louisiana, God forbid. If
there is needed other than religion and
law to instin or inculcate proper ideals.

and chastity, to exemplify patriotism
and to maintain white supremacy-no

Arms. Lessons
IN English.

We are in receipt of "Army Lessons
in English" in eight pamphlets, sent us
I-by the Adjutant Generals Office of the
War Department. The lessons are very
Isimple, bound in paper covered pam
phlets, each one of the volumes contain
ling the likeness of a different Presi-
dent of the United States The PAM
kphlets would be serviceable to school
children, beginners, and the work is
simpliied as well as made interesting.
The text is prepared at Camp Upton
New York, by the Recruit Educational
Center.
Congress having authorized the en-
listment, in time of peace, of those who
cannot speak, read or write the En-
glish language, the War Department
established five additional Recruit Ed
ucational Centers at Camp Jackson, S.,
c., Pike, Ark, Travis, Texas, Grant,
Ill, aid Lewis, Wash, all conducted on
the plans successfully worked out at
Camp Upton. With the abandonment of
Camp Upton about October 1st, that
center will be moved to Camp Dix, N
j.
"'The hope of the Recruit Educational
Center is not only to train and educate
foreigners and illiterates for the army,
i but to spread through these men, the
wish among the adults of their home
community to learn to read and write
the English language, to stimulate sen
timent in favor of better educational
opportunities.
"The intention is not only to teach
them to speak, read and write English,
but also, to be good American citizens.
Patriotism, citizenship, loyalty to the
Sation, to her principles, her laws and
institutions are taught from the We
ry first lesson. The men are taught to
express themselves in public, and TO
state intelligently what America
stands for, and what the Government
offers her citizens.
Upon enlistment every illiterate
Whether native or foreign born, is sent
to one of these Centers, remains there
until he completes the course of study.
This is compulsory, no man is assign
ed to duty with an organization until
he. can read, write and speak the En-
glish language.
''The army offers the young men who
enlists, in addition to military training,
the opportunity to specialize in varie
ty of educational and vocational cour-
ses which are certain to broaden the
soldiers view point, to increase his
earning capacity, and to turn him out
of the army better equipped for life.

NUMBER 40
Coolest November
In Some Years,

According to the statements of the
Oldest residents of this section this No
vember presents the longest and stea-
diest cold spell we have had in some
years. The weather bureau at New Or
Jeans states it is the coldest stretch, or
period and the severest period in No
vember since the year 1894. Saturday
the mercury hoovered around so, in the
open it was lower; on Sunday it was
still in the thirties, and on Monday at
35, with Wednesday at 81 in protected
places. 1t was undoubtedly lower when
exposed to the north wind, and in open
or unprotected places, possibly as low
as 26. There was ice on Saturday, on
Monday, on Tuesday, and frost and ice
on Wednesday. The cane were frozen,
TO what extent time alone and deve-
lopments will tell. This sort of wheath
er was very unwelcome, taken from
any standpoint.

On last Saturday evening, as advertis
ed, the Louisiana State University
Club presented prince Chap" drama
in several acts, at the local high
school. The affair was entirely staged
and participated in by members of
the student body of the State UNIVERSE
ty. 1t was not our good fortune to be
present, but excellent reports reach US
regarding the presentation, which was
witnessed by an appreciative, even
though not very large audience. It may
be that the admission had something to
do with attendance, as after all it was
not professional performance and
admission may have been considered a
bit heavier than non pro-
fessional attraction was war
ranted in demanding, although the
severity of the cold was the principal
cause attending to reduce the atten-
dance.

River To Mark
Parish Lines,

Considerable argument is already
started in some of the river parishes,
wherein a movement has been launch
ed. with a view of making the river the
dividing line between all parishes on
the. haslSs If the river. The idea is to in
c6s.yylss Boundary lines in the Con
stitution ;those parishes on both sides
of the River would give and take, some
losing more than others, and accord
ing to the manner in which they are
effected, the argument is guaged. In
some cases the creation of new parish
es is also being agitated. There is Also
talk of abolishing police juries.
