COOPERATION

II Is we'll for us as a people tina
we are getting gradually converted t
the great importance and value o
cooperation and are applying 1t more
and more. as time passes on, so al
. to check the business extortion tina
mas become so common and burden
some. especially so, since the cessa.
ton of the horrid world war.
Instead OF that fearful holocaust
having had the effect Of softening and
modifying the baser propensities Of
the human heart, and making people
feel more like friends and common
brothers. 1t seems rather to have had
the contrary effect, making them more
selfish and Indifferent to each others
interest than ever before-a very wide
divergence. indeed, from the true spir-
It and teachings OF Christianity. as ex-
planned so clearly to us In Holy
Writ" which says. unless you are
one. we are none Of mine"
This properly interpreted must
mean that IL we ever expect to enter
the pearly gates Of heaven we must
learn to become one in thought and
deed, as are those who dwell in the
glorious mansions above.
The intimacy and intercourse OF
nations. since distance has almost
become annihilated by modrn inven-
lions. renders II more necessary than
ever before that cooperation should
be both national and international,
enlisting as II would the peoples
sympathies and interests Into one
grand, common whole. With this
mighty object achieved. We can easily
comprehend what nameless bless
ing 1t would prove to the world at
large and to mankind In general
We talk and sometimes boast OF
our individual independence when,
practically there is no such thing
possible. In spite OF all our precon-
ceived notions and self conceit, we
are indissolubly linked together with
the chain OF mutual interest. each Of
us being link or factor thereof, con-
tributing our part to give 1t strength
sufficient to subjugate or bind the
communicating forces Of evil. This
we have the power TO do II we have
the will. When we get to fully
realize the importance Of this fact
and function accordingly we shall
have filled our allotted part In life

NJ O. EDITOR VISITS NEW IBERIA

That New Iberia's re-awakening is
being noticed, and the importance OF
this parish and it's people is being
realized in the Metropolis of Louisi-
ana, is attested by the fact that the

Robertson, to this city this week tc
get in touch with things.
Mr.. Robertson, who was publicity
manager for Governor Parker's cam
paign, came out Tuesday morning
and was an early caller at the Ibe-
rian office On learning of the Char
les Boldt Paper Mill activities here
and the reopening Of the old paper
mill by the United Fibre Company
he became much interested and went
out to get information for an article
in the Picayune.
He also informed us that he will
write up these two New IBERIA in
dustries for the Manufacturers Re
cord, for which he is also a special
representative.
The iberia Canning Factory was
also inspected by this gentleman
who commented most highly on this
plant.
Mr. Robertson also, was getting
ideas for story on the coming Con
stitutional Convention. and while here
interviewed Senator Broussard, State
Senator v. j. Smith, and our two
Convention delegates, Hons. Walter
j. Burke and Edward L. Estorge
