The facilities now used by you were paid for

Can you ask or expect them to furnish more
money for your use in Louisiana under pres-

If the people of Louisiana will not supply
the money needed to serve themselves they
must induce strangers to furnish it.
This can be done by allowing the stranger to
earn fair and just profit upon his money

upon all additional money required to furnish
you service.
This can be done in but one way: by paying
fair and just rates.

The best eulogy that could have
been pronounced upon him was
the simple but impressive obse-
quies which were said by the
members of our lodge.
1t is chiefly as friend and in
the closer relations of his family
that his loss will be lastingly
felt. No man could meet him
day by day and not enjoy his
bright and keen comment on
everything that was taking
place and not appreciate his
many acts of courtesy and kind
ness.
1t is with feelings peculiarily
tender that we offer this last
tribute to the memory of our
late friend and brother. And
now, that we have come to pay
this feeble tribute to hissmemory,
he is gone. The places that
knew him here in the lodge,

A Memorial Adopted by X. of T.
Lodge

live for those who love me,
For those who know me true;
For the God who made me
And the good that may DO.
These lines were written years
ago, and in their sentiment may
be found an accurate understand
ing of the motives of John Allen
Harris. They afford an explana-
ton Of the motives and purposes
of his life. The handspring of
his conduct was reflected in
these lines. Through them
there shines a light that brings
into bold relief the influences
which mark and emphasize
his life.
Just a few weeks ago it was
pathetic to observe him amid the
scenes that surround US to-day
passing to and fro from his du-
ties. moving carefully and eau
tiously as if his powers were
failing and he were then totter-
ing slowly down to life's last
resting place.
We feel that one of the best
of us has responded to Stern
Ruins call. And when we con-
sidered this, our brothers
merits, his courtesy and kind
ness, his nobility Of character
his love and gentle sympathy
we could not help but pronounce
and record our brief tribute o
adaptation and respect for th'
character and career Of our de
parted and lamented brother.
Out of his heart at all times
there flowed stream Of atfec
ton and unceasing love for hi
wife and little son. he wa

he was not only willing to sacff
