ANON Y M Gus
LETTERS FAIL
TO ALARM

Several anonymous letters have
been written this week containing
threats Of violence. One to man
of high character and standing, sign
ed tx. K. K" and one to a teacher
in the colored school not signed at
all, but having skull and cross bones,
a red label taken from a bottle OF
poison. being pasted on the bottom.
Both letters threaten death or bodily
violence. These letters have been
turned over to proper government
officials and search will be made
for the writer. The penalty is quite
severe. It could not be thought for
a minute that anything of that kind
would be permitted to go unpunished.
While one Of the letters is signed
X. K. K" it is readily understood
that such crude and bungling+ work
could not be attributed to that order.
1t is thought the author of these let
ters will soon be in hand.

which always has been and we hope
always will be, was the school pa
rade. It was even better than last
year. Abita won the cup for the
best appearance of any visiting
school, and the third grade (Mrs. V.
". Young, Covington, teacher) won
the cup for the best grade work.
While st. Scholastica was not COM
peting, it was given special mention
for fine appearance. Chinchuba, as
usual, helped to brighten the parade.
The parade this year marched
around the athletic field at the fa'r
grounds and was dismissed by grade

pretty picture and an orderly dis
missal

w. 49,
at the fair. The others have no1
yet been completed and will be puo-
.Iished next week. s-. .-..
In many respects the fair was bet
ter than last year There was more
system. there were no disturbances
Of any kind, and while there was
some disappointment in not having
the bal oon and aeroplane stunts, ii
was unavoidable and in no way at
tributable to the fair management.
The midway still offered opportunity
for a lively time.
Mrs. C. S. Engle refused to take
any commission for her work and
besides gave each Of the deaf mutes
noticed that the boys were just as
anxious to get the dolls as the girls
were and had a good time with them.
There were SIS dolls. Mr. Gibbs
gave each of the mutes three free
rides and Mr.. Troy gave each toy
balloon.
The dismal disappointment was
the stock department. Had 1T not
been for few kind folks who want
ed to help things along, there would
have been nothing, and these exhib-
TORS are deserving of the hearty
thanks Of all. Ticks are given the
blame for this failure. Cattle o.
value could not be safey brought into
a tick infested district.
The poultry show was a credit
and would have been to any fair in
the state. 1t was the finest poultry
show we have ever had. We have
published pictures of some OF the
winners, whose names will be found
in the list of awards Others that
we tried to get failed because OF the
darkness in the interior and the fact
that chickens could not be kept still
long enough for the exposures.
We also give a view OF Mr.. Fried
landers display of oranges suited 70
the climate of and grown in st. Tam
many parish. Mr.. Friedlander is
doing wonderful work in this indus
try. 1t is said that he can hardly
supply the trees in demand.
The agricultural display was good
in quality, but was not as large as
last year. This is said to be due to
not having a farm agent to get out
among the farmers and encouragt.
them to grow for exhibition.
Both President Warner and Secre-
tary Minckler worked hard for sue
cess, and at least financially put
things through. With proper Co
operation, the fair would have been
the biggest on record in every way.
The educational department and
the womens department, as vel as
the women who fed the hungry, arr
deserving Of credit.
The band was fine and the dane
ing was greatly enjoyed.
Mr.. Beavers had some beautiful
Studebaker Skis on exhibition the
second day. They did not reach here
for the opening and we're therefore
not mentioned last week.
Mr. Beavers won two of the auto
races and Mr.. Henry Levy two. Tt
for tat.
The grandest thing OF the fair,

A. LILY.

Mr.. A. lily died at his home in
Covington, Saturday, October 18th,
1921, following a stroke of apoplexy
several days previous. He was 62
years, II months, % days Of age.
Mr.. lily was q, native Of New Orleans.
He was buried in the Covington
Cemetery, Rev. Father John Burger
Of ST. Peters Catholic Church Off
ciating.
Mr. lily was well known and high
1y respected He came to Coving-
con in January, 1900, where he rep
resented the New Orleans Great
Northern Railroad Company as sta
ton agent from that time until he
retired in March, 1919.
Mr.. lily was fond Of his home and
found much pleasure and needed ex-
ercise in his garden, which he tended
carefully. He was also fond Of
motoring, and he and Mrs. lily were
frequently seen in their car, especial
ly after the gravel roads made driy-
ing pleasant.
After Mr.. lily became troubled
with high blood pressure, he still
continued To WUIh III uiS SdlA
although he was advised that the
weakened condition of his heart
made such work risky. He said he
experienced no inconvenience or
trouble from it. Mr.. lily probably
did not realize his weakness until
stricken.
Mr.. Illy's death<was a shock to his
many friends, who found it hard t.
realize the great change that may
come in few days.
Mr. lilly is survived by his widow;
his mother, Mrs. Caroline lily; two
sisters, Mrs. J. Snyder, of New Or
leans, and Mrs. Francis Durham, OF
Amite City, La.

School Parade and Poultry
Show Win High Com

FRIEDLANDER !.
ORANGE EXHIBIT
Many Departments Exceed
Last Year, But Stock
Show Fails
The School Exhibit.

The school exhibit at the Parish
other exhibits OF past years. There
was very lively interest displayed
in all competitive work, and most OF
the teachers were on hand when the
judges were looking over the work.
The booths were beautifully and
artisticahy arranged, and the entire
liali had a festive appearance.
Visitors swarmed into the build
ing the four days OF the fair and fav-
orable comments were heard on all
sides.
The Coyington High School cap
tured the cup for the most artistic
.yootn; Madisonville a cup for the
best school with over four teachers;
ralisheek cup for the three-rooEl
schools; Abita Springs for the best
visiting school in the parade. Gov
ington High also won the athletic
cup, and Mrs. V. q. Young's room
won the cup given by School League
for best appearance in parade. Gov
ing.on High and Slidell High carried
almost equal honors in ribbons, the
d,rst named being a little in the lead.
S!andeyille had a splendid exhibit,
but worked at rather a disadvantage,
having to put in as Junior and High
School. Madisonville, Folsom, Cen
1ral, Pearl River, Audubon and Sun
all made a splendid showing and
shared in the ribbons. 49,"
1t is to be regretted that no one
room or two-room schools exhibited,
as we had a lovely silver cup for each
in the competitive work.
ST. Scholastica' S, St. Catharine, OF
jacksonville, Our Lady of the Lake,
Vaudeville, all had booths with their
usual excellent work and captured
silver cups and ribbons.
We want to thank all teachers and
pupils and supporters and helpers il
the work on School Day. To say
that it was a success, is speaking
mildly, and it is all due to the Won
derful spirit shown.
