other hotel had anything like it, and
she was given the Job.
She decorated the walls with gro
tesque animals that looked as II they
had crawld out OF the pages OF Alice
in Wonderland" She. with her own
hands in the beginning. fashioned odd
little chairs and hobby horses and
tables and settees, every one painted
in harmony with the walls. There
was carpet with border Of kittens,
and when few toys had been added,
and the doors were opened to the
guests the place was pronounced an
immediate and unique success.
Her fame spread She has decor
ated play rooms in hotels. in depart
ment stores. in public Fairgrounds,
etc, from coast to coast, and is now
adding the more lucrative task Of
furnishing play rooms and nurseries
for the spoiled darlings Of million

homes where there are children, the
opportunities in a barn loft. or the
top floor OF the garage-au these are
told in the work she is doing She
recently furnished nurseries in Spain

THE campaign OF DR.. Antoni, a
European surgeon, for fewer
clothes for the human race.
strikes me as sensible. with the mod
flied views OF the surgeon said Ed
ward L Greer. THE man does not
advocate. as does an English society,
the gradual abolition Of clothing, but
rather the wearing Of as little as is
consistent with modesty. he states
that sunlight and fresh air viii rid
the human race OF half its ills, or
more. and says that sunlight, If taken
as a treatment early enough, is a Ger
tain cure for tuberculosis IN all its
phases. Only clothing for the trunk
OF the body should be used. to get
best results, the physician says. and
this should be as light as consistent
with modesty. Incidentally, this
practice. II universal, would render
fathers bills far smaller and the
same money could find more useful
channels II the human race today
would cut down the amount Of
clothes worn TO minimum, and still
maintain modesty anC comfort,
health and finances would show a
decided increase. The idea might

IBERIA BOYS TO MAKE FARM
BOYS TOUR.

The nineteen dav tour to Chi.
cago, stopping at all of the lead
ing farm colleges in the middle
West will leave Baton Rouge on
August I'd. Through the gen.
crosby of the iberia Parish School
Board and Police Jury of this Par
ish, Messrs. Whitney Broussard
and Albert Decuir, both young
men who are interested in agricul-
ture have been selected through
the drawings Of the Police Jury
and School Board. The drawings
were conducted under the super
vision of Mr.. Harry Hall, vice
president of the School Board, as
sisted bv Superintendent Porter
and Secretary Paul Bassin of the
Police jury with the above result.
Every Parish in the State has del
egated two Young men go with
the party in charge of State Super
intendent Of Education Harris and
much valuable information will be
derived from the tour by the boys
from this State. The excursion
lists will travel in comfort and at
different points they will have
pointed out to them everything Of
at the agricultural schools
in the middle West. The invest
ment on the part of these two
bodies we believe to be good one |
and the two young gentlemen
should derive much benefit from
this sightseeing tour.

OIL DEVELOPMENT ASSURED.

We had the pleasure yesterday
morning to meet Mr.. G. J. Beck
Of New York City. He was in
company with Mr.. Skully, we'll
known to our people as an old pro-
moter. Mr.. Beck came to New
Iberia to start the work of de-
veloping for oil for his Company,
known as the Louisiana Central
Petroleum, domiciled in New
York. This concern financed by
the Creiger Bros. Of New York
have several thousands acres of
land between the Little Bayou
Oil Field and the town Of LOreau-
vile and they have been diligent-
ly at work for several months ar
ranging to finance the proposition
so that once the drilling is com
menced there will be nothing to in
terfere with its progress. Within
a few weeks there will be a great
deal of activity in oil circles
again and the land owners and
other citizens in this section are
more than anxious to see the de-
velopment begin. We all know
the oil field at Little Bayou is a |
proven one. IT only remains for
some company to put down sue
cessful well and a gusher is al
most assured. Several thousand
barrels of the fluid has already
been extracted from the mother
earth at that point, but notwith-
standing that, the field was
abandoned by the larger corpora
lions who removed their drilling
outfits to points in Texas. We
feel certain when the La. Petrol
cum Co. start their first well the
same concerns that operated here ,
will return again to look after
heir interests. :
