men council.
Mrs. C. w. Cultivate reported
on the sanitary conditions in New
Iberia and said that DR.. W. +.
Carstens. DR.. Bowling and Mayor
Sealy had each stated they would
cooperate with the Women S
Council in this affair to the best
of their ability.
Manager Frank Noel of the
Chamber Of Commerce then
spoke to the ladies with regard to
having four high class musical
artists show in New Iberia next
fall and stated that the booking
was now under way. After some
discussion, five ladies said thew
could sell their allotment of 800
tickets.
New Tberia is not quite ready
to accept and properly patronize
high class talent at this time. in
the opinion of the majority Of the
ladies present. As it is necessary
to have some club. musical, civic
Or otherwise to sponsor such big
movements, which would need fl
nancial backing and the fact that
the Women Council has approx
imatelv but one hundred dollars
in the treasury it was thought
best to Let the matter drop.
Mrs. J. W. K. Shaw presided at
the meeting and. taken as a whole,
the conference last Tuesday was
probably the most satisfactory
held by the local women's insti-
tuition. Among the new members
enrolled were: Mrs. George J.

Martin Hebert, Mrs. G.. A. Barnes,

SOBER JUDGMENT SHOULD
PREVAIL.

In our endeavors to restore
normal conditions in this land of
chaos sane and sober judgment
should prevail.
We have agitators in our midst
whose sole apparent aim is to
destroy our established system
of government.
We have Others who are con-
sumed with unrest. are out of har-
mony with prevailing methods,
and yet are true and loyal at
heart.
We must learn to differentiat:
between the two. i
The one must be curbed OF
destroyed. while the other should
be conserved and nurtured bacs
to healthy state Of mind.
There is much to perplex and
exasperate us all, but nothing tc
cause a palsy Of alarm.
It has taken years of work and
wisdom to create the greatest ma
ton of earth. 1t will not h
wrecked in a day.
Energy, perseverance and sober
Judgment will in time restore
conditions to some more satisfac
tory basis, but only time and pa
thence can bring about this result

W0MEN's COUNCIL ENDORSES PLAN
TO MAKE new IBERIA BEAUTIFUL.
Solution of Rest Room Problem Seems Solved.

The Women's Council at a
brisk meeting in the Chamber Of
Commerce office last Tuesday aft
ernoon endorsed the civic move
ment to make New Iberia the City
Beautiful in fact, instead of,
lust literature, and to this end
the body voted in favor of re-
questing a conference with the
property owners of West End to
meet with Honorable II. S. Sealy,
Mayor. and the civic committee Of
the Women's Council for the pur-
pose of planting real evergreen
trees along the neutral ground
from Railroad Avenue to the end
of Main Street within the corpo-
rate City limits.
According to information gath
cred by Miss Pearl Davis, a num-
Der of property owners have al
ready signifed their intention Of
planning China berry and several
ether trees on the neutral ground
which are not evergreens and
which destroy the beauty of the
City.
Miss Louise Taylor suggested
that oleanders. dwarf camphor
trees, and crepe myrtle be plan
ted instead of the unsightly trees
now being suggested by several
owners. Inasmuch as New Iberia
now has the reputation of being
the City Beautiful it was thought
that something definite in this di-
rection should be done and that
the CITY really live up to its APP
pelation.
A committee was appointed to
confer with Mayor Sealy in this
regard, Mrs. Dimitry seconding
the motion made by Miss Davis
and it was carried.
A Women Rest Room was dis
cussed and Mrs. E. L. Grant
again suggested Tag Day to
maintain it. Miss Louise Taylor
made the happy suggestion that
some department store down town
might easily furnish the needed
room, which would alleviate the
necessity Of paying monthly rent.
Miss Taylor suggested that a
committee call on Mr.. A. Elias of
Elias and Sons store on Main
and Bridge Streets and request
room to establish a permanent
Rest Room. AS Elias s+Nre is
centrally located it rvould seon
that the logical solution of this
one need could easily be acquired.
After the meeting Mr.. Elias was
interviewed relative to this mat
ter and he said that as a member
of the Chamber Of Commerce he
would be only too glad to CO.
operate with the ladies of the Wo-

So Buster Bear splashed along the
edge of the pond of Paddy the Beaver
to the upper end. There he found Il

all over his head and shoulders. Then
he laid down in it and rolled until

Buster turned and headed straight for
his favorite bed under a great pile of
fallen trees. There he wuold rest and
keep out of sight until he felt better.
Then he would go back to the pond
of Paddy the Beaver, take a bath, and
after that no one would laugh at him.
Poor Buster Bear! As he lay there
in his bed trying to forget his trou-
bles by taking nap, he felt that he
was the most abused person in all the
Great World. And down in his heart
he laid all his troubles to Farmer
Browns boy, quite forgetting that if
he hadn't been SO curious about Farm
err Browns boy and what he was do
ing. he never would have found those
Bee-trees and SO wouldn't have been
caught up in one of them by Farmer
Browns boy. No, Buster didn't See
that he was to blame at all. 1t was
all the fault of Farmer Browns boy.
And SO instead of taking that nap he
lay awake trying to think how he
could get even with Farmer Browns
boy.
