 "He has a large fund of self re- liance, and if defeated in his efforts or disappointed in his hopes today, he expects to succeed tomorrow.
 "Being to some extent educated and a reader, he has an opinion, and generally not entirely erroneous one, on most subjects of importance.
 "IIe will be sorry if any one is hungry or ill clad, or for any reason unhappy, and when he has preached a little sermon on the mans weak ness or folly he will give him bread as well as good advice, and tell him to go and make a. man of himself.
 "The average American respects and honors his wife. He is proud of his children and ambitious for them.
 "In expressing himself he goes straight to the point, speaks with emphasis, even with exaggeration. He, however, does mean exactly what he says when he talks business. It is by character more than by intellect ual endowments that he measures men; and it is by the qualities of character which they would promote and stamp upon the history of the nation that he estimates, approves or repudiates the policies which states men have to propose"
 The destinies of the country are safe in his hands, and it will add to his happiness to know that others, too. are blessed with the same peace and prosperity

 YOUNG SINGER MAKING RETURN TRIP TO IRELAND
Refused Admittance Here Because He Could Not
 Show Birth Certificate.

New Y Orlx, June 10.---FranciS O'Brien,
 a young strip1ing famous on Ellis Is-
 land as stOwaway and as a tenor Of
 promise, who is on the high seas to-
 day on his return voyage to Ireland,
 is a living proof that a birth certifi- cate may som etimes prove an essen
 tia1 document in the pursuit of a ca
 reer as a singer.
 Were it not for his lack of such
 document as proof of his contention
 that he was born in Philadelphia and
 that his parents took him to Ireland
 when he was four years old, young OBrien might now be winning the hearts of American music lovers, as did John Mccormack, the emulation
 himself on an Americanlbound vessel scn1e three weeks ago. Instead, immigration officials, who have only cold legal instructions to guide then in making decisions, saw
 fit to place him on an outgoing ship l and let him try to establish the essen tiaI facts concerning his birth after his
 return. O'Brien, however, despaired | of being able to prove much about his origin, because his father and mother are both dead and he has no relatives 1 in Ireland.
 ] The young tenor's fame as a singer probably would never have started to spread had it not been for a slight ill., ness contracted on Ellis Island, caus- | ing him to be placed in the hospital for treatment. The nurses there De- came enchanted with his singing, and before he was deported he was giving concerts for the other inmates of the hospital as well as for the inhabitants
 of the island generally. As a result O'Brien's name today is on the lips or all Ellis Island. The hospital attend
 ants were calling his name with ten
 der eulogy and expressing extreme sorrow that he had to go back.
 O'Brien is only one of hundreds or
 such cases that gre sent back to their original place -lSation every month There are 50 stowaways on the island now awaiting orders to go back, never having seen more of New York than it's enchan+r~ c'7--'|" a. Every incoming ship from no matter what port, according to immigration 1 officials, brings f-~-- two to ten stow | aways. and almost all of them have a fruitless voyage to this country.

THE CANNING FACTORY.

The attention of our readers is
called to the act Of incorporation
of the New Iberia Canning Co.
which appears in another column
of this journal. This firm in
charge of Mr.. A. E. Prick who IS
practical and experienced
canning factory expert are already
getting the material together to
begin the erection of an in
dustry that will, in a very few
years mean real diversified farm
ing near this community. 1t is
the intention also to operate a
syrup mill in connection with the
canning Of okra, tomatoes and
other vegetables. Besides the
syrup plant they will erect three
buildings and q large warehouse.
One of the structurse will be COX
100 feet in dimension; another
40x80; another 23x80 which will
give them ample floor space for a
number of years. From what we
learn, Mr.. Dunbar says the okra
raised in this section has superior
flavor Of any grown in other parts
Of the United States. A factory
such as this firm intends to ope-
rate will do more to develop this
Parish than any industry that
could be planted in this vicinity. |
that there will be plenty
of work here for the young wo-
men and children that they dol
not now enjoy. With the acquis;-
ton If this factory to our other
in a few years even the !
population of New Iberia should
be materially increased. i

hearsal Next Monday Night,

merce next Monday night, Feb.
18th at Z 80 O'Clock.
Mr.. Frank Noel, Manager-Sec-
rotary Of the New Iberia Chamber
Of Commerce, sent out a call for
musicians last week and the brass
band enthusiasts answered the cad
with vigor that was most sur
prising. The need of an efficient
brass band in New Iberia has been
known for some time and from
the outlook New iberia will be OF
the musical map in big colors.
1t is the intention of the or
eanization to make ready for the
first public appearance at the
opening game Of the New iberia
base ball team in the Louisiana
State League on the home
grounds.
The band will comprise fifteen
of the leading musicians. This
was deemed an excellent number
because of the necessity of full at
tendance at rehearsals and the
short time intervenants before the
bands first public appearance.
Mr.. Noel addressed the merl-
bers of the value Of organization
and the necessity Of much train
ing prior to the bands appear
ance in concerts.
Mr.. J. G.. Martin was selected |
as temporary leader and Mr.. Yves
Arnandez will be engaged to in |

hearsal of the band permanent

KEEP AN EYE ON IBERIA.
Saws the Lafayette Gazette:

There is no jealousy involved
in the injunction to Keep an eye
On New IBERIA for Lafayette
and New Iberia have many inter
erests in common. Rather the
warning is by appreciation of the
awakened esprit Of Iberia" that
is doing things calculated to bring
that little city into favorable no.
tice and make her somewhat dan
gerous as a rival in the new pep
that Frank Noel has injected into
Iberian affairs since he took the
helm at the Chamber Of Commerce
there six weeks ago. The injunc-
ton above is inspired by the dem
onstration which the editor wit
messed Sunday in the quiet. de-
termined way in which lberians
are going about the duty of. lend
ing cooperation to their new lead
err. During the baseball confer
ence someone suggested the idea
that it might be well for, New
Iberia and Jeanerette to join IN
supporting club between them
and split the schedule between the
two cities. 1t was immediately
voted as a reflection upon New
Iberia S ability to travel in COM
pany with Lafayette, Alexandria,
Rayne, Opelousas and Oakdale.
The sentiment was expressed that
New iberia in 1920 is standing on
her own feet and amply able To
keep pace with any of her rival
cities. It was a manifestation Of
a splendid spirit. Another evil
dence was that presented in the
attendance at the conference when
a dozen representative business
men responded to Mr.. Noel's cal
for the meeting and the under
lying enthusiasm with which they
supported suggestion Of club iii
the league for publicity purposes,
as a civic auxiliary, not as an
investment. Over there they
are taking pride in the vast
amount of improvements going
ON, and they hasten. to ex-I
plain that Main Street, once a bog,
is soon to become a handsome
thoroughfare through paving.
They want you to note evidences
Of progress and this is born Of
civic pride that testifies to the
depth of their enthusiasm over
New Iberia. Whenever civic pride
is aroused it is the most valuable
asset any city can boast for It'll
knows no limit to what it can ac-
complish. SO we say again,
Keep an eye on Iberia. (" She
is far more dangerous than Lake
Charles as a rival of Lafayette.
