After 90 illness Of three weeks
or more, weeks Of suffering and
pain, the little spirit OF baby
0irard sought rest, and his soul
departed to that realm where suf-
fering aud disease enter not, and
death shall be no more.
Gerald, the young son Of Mr..
and Mrs. Rene Glrard. was born
on July II, 1918. and died on Sat-
urdsy, May %, 1920.
The funeral, which was con.
Quoted from st. Peters Catholic
Church, Sunday afternoon, was at
tended by q large coDcourse OF
Borrowing relatives and friends OF
the beresved parents.
I'VE loved you, yes we loved you.
But Jesus loved you more;
And he has gently called you
To yonder shining shore.
The Golden gates were opened.
A loving voice said "Come";
And with farewells scarce spoken,
Yox calmly entered home".

CONGRATULATIONS.

Prof. Yves Aranandez and Mr.. AL
bert Dieudonne, local composers and
musicians, have recently placed or
the market two pretty ballads bearing
their signatures. The lyrics being
written by Dieudonne and the music
by our we'll known musician and com.
poser, Arnandez-
Many songs of much inferior grade
have been sold by the thousands Of
copies. and as these two have much
real merit they ought to be big sell
lers.
We understand that these local
composers have several other equally
attractive numbers ready for publica-
ton which will be realeasd from time
to time. They deserve much credit
for their efforts thus far.

The Soldiers
Memorial Campaign.

Soldiers Memorial Headquarters,
2O5 Roumain building, Baton
Rouge, that it may be placed in
the Memorial Hall of the building
that will be erected on the State
University campus in honor or
Louisiana men who fell.
This request comes from the
executive committee OF the
Soldiers Memorial campaign,
who announce that in all prOba0i-
lity actual work on the building
will be begun in the fall.
"The Memorial Hall will OF
course be the principal and most
beautiful feature of the building"
states Raymond Parker, chairman.
"In it we expect to have dags,
portraits, the names of all Louisi-
ana men who served in the war as
we'll as those who lost their lives.
records of Lonislana's part in the
war, and as many and various
relics and souvenirs as We can
obtain.
"If this Memorial Hall is to
give a complete representation OF
our part IN the war, the people OF
Louisiana must lend their coOpera.
ton and contribute the souvenirs
brought back by Louisiana soldiers.
In no other way can it be 8
representative collection of war
relics, nor can we start too soon to
gather up these relics 80 that they
can be placed in the Memorial
Hall as soon as the building ls
completed. Every souvenir re-
ceived will be csrfully preserved,
and tagged with the name and
address of the owner"
Due to the fact that the cam
psign for $500, 900 memorial
building is still going on in some
parts of the state and headquarters
do not know the exact total raised
architects plans have not yet been
definitely made. The other floors
of the building will be used fol
educational purposes, tho to wha,
college or department of the
University they will be assigned
is not known at this time.
A number of parishes have
either subscribed or Oversu bscribed
their quotas, but in others the
campaign was delayed in starting
and only incomplete reports have
been received. That the tOta
sum of $500, 900 will be subscribed
by the first week in June, is the
opinion of headquarters in Baton
Rouge. AS soon as all the parishes
| in the state have made their fna
reports, the amount each has
contributed will be published.
| Immediately after all reports
are in the plans of the proposed
memorial building will be drawn

just some of the things We must
remedy.
Good roads, too, is another
essential TO our prosperity. With
out them the farmer cannot come
to town either to buy or sell. He,
too, needs good roads as we'll as
We. That's just another item that
should not be overlooked 10 the
rush of things. A to why man
who lives 10 and off OF the City or
Parish should contribute to keep
this body active and permit it to
function properly, the reasons are
SO numerous that they would take
up a whole page of this newspaper,
but nobody who makes his living
in community should refuse to
do a little bit for the City which
supports him and bis, yet there
are some people IN New Iberia
who have never contributed to the
civic, and commercial develop
ment of the community, and,
unfortunately, many of them can
afford it. The worst feature Of
this is that they are proiting of
the money, time and work expended
by loyal citizens here and are
resping rewards not justly theirs.
Fortunately New Iberia has but q
few of this class of undesirables,
but we should have none.
There is . certain GLASS Of people
who do not know or appreciate
what the New Iberia Chamber OF
Commerce is doing. Some d0n't
care. We have lots 1T members
who Daver come tO meeting
We have q number of men now on
committees who do not function
and several of these are NOT
EVEN MEMBERS.
There il Q class Of citlzenship ia
New Iberia which does not realize
that it is up to them to become
members and do not realize that q
member gets out Of 1t all that he
puts in-regardless Of the cum
and that they are invited to attend
the open meetings and voice
Opinions Of their own which might
better the City and Parish.
The scope Of the New Iberia
Chamber Of Commerce, II my
humble opinion, should be broad
ened, and made such that Southern
Louisiana might reap all the
benefits rightfully it's property.
Some one recently told me that
what California has done towards
advertising it's possibilities could
not be done here-Because. That's
wonderful reason, I sm sure.
Wonderful in that it ls nonsensical
Southern Louisiana can, and
should, be made the equal to
California in every way. 1t has
agricultural possibilities that would
put California to shame; scenery
that is the equal to that 0i
California; climate that IL just az
gond. We have the potential
possibilitlss-its just up to you
aud me 10 take advantage of them
Will you help when the Mem
bership Committee calls on you oI

days at the court of Morocco. Then 1t

smelt him before he saw him. No
dog ever gave its master happier
welcome. The man went into the cage,
and the lion fawned on him, and licked
his feet. After his departure, the lion
refused food for four days. A some

Oldest Law School.

England today has no law school In
existence. Harvard's Law school Is
not only the oldest existing law school
In the United States, but 1t is the old
est existing academic law school in the
English-speaking world. They have a
professor Of law at Cambridge, and a
professor of law at oxford, in England,
but they do not teach law In the man
ner of professional school. They
simply lecture upon law, or endeavor
to give scientific preparation for the
profession OF law. but do not give a
scientific, professional training. And,
more and more the tendency is to rec
ognlze that that Is the ideal, along
with other features of instruction at
Harvard, TO keep up with In American
law schools.

Industrial Italy Awakening.

One great stride toward freeing In
dustrial Italy from its dependence up
on its supplies Of iron ore and steel
is announced. This consists In the
acquisition Of the rights OF big Aus
trian mining company hitherto known
as the Alpine Montan Geselischaft.
These rights comprise control Of one
of the largest steel-producing districts
In Europe From its foundries at Err
berg in Syria alone the annual pre-
war output exceeded 100000 tons Of
finest quality steel. Experts estimate
that the mine there can be worked ad-
vantageously for at least 200 years to
