hazard depends upon the attention
that is given to the details.
What makes up a city from the
material point Of view? The streets
sidewalks, stores and Offices, the hou-
ses. fences, lawns and trees, the pub
lie buildings, and parks. Each one OF
these things are detail of the town.
If the lawns are poorly kept. no mat
ter how perfect the rest of the town
NAV be, that one bad detail spoils it.
If papers are allowed to blow about
the main streets and sidewalks are
not swept in front Of the stores, it
looks like a poor town for business.
IF two or three houses have sagglng
porches or untidy door yard, it makes
a bad blot on the beauty of the city.
Thanks to the Women's Council
who have been preaching and teach
ing Clean Up" and who have done
much to get each individual home
owner to beautify his own yard, and
thanks to the city administration who
are trying to keep our streets clean

which was a most enjoyable affair

The Cake Hunt proved most inter

WHOSE HOUSE ARE
YOU PAYING FOR?

Do you realize that when you have
paid rent for number of years
vou'ye paid for a house for somebody
else?
Why not pay for your own home
and at the end of few years own 1t
clear-instead Of having only bun
die of rent receipts?
Think this over seriously. You
certainly do not wish to pay rent all
your life.

Everybody Help.

Women's Council and the Mayor is
being made more difficult each time
any one of us drops a piece of paper
on the street, and each time some
one of our merchants violates the
Ordinance against lacking sign cards
on the light or telephone poles. This
ordinance was passed almost year
ago at the request of the Chamber Of
Commerce. Many merchants have
obeyed the law, and the streets look
much better for it.
But others have not obeyed the
law, and so far, none of these have
been hailed before the City Court. If
it is a good law it should be enforc-
ed by the city police. If it is not a
good law it should be repealed.
Keeping city clean is matter
almost entirely of cooperation. If
each resident of New iberia drops
just one scrap of paper on the street
each day, the Mayor and hundred
men cannot keep it looking right.
The best of it is, that it costs so
little money to keep all the little de-
tails in first class shape. A little
care on the part of every citizen ev-
cry day and we will have model
city.
Is it too much for New Iberia to
ask of each of us?

AMERICANISM.

A fourteen-year-old girl, who came
to this country from Poland two
years years ago, won a prize in
Chicago school for the best essay on
"Americanism."
Remarkable, do you say? Not at
all.
One .born in this country takes its
institutions and blessings for grant
ed, and in this way we fail to give
proper thought to our system Of gov
eminent and fail to appreciate it as
we should.
1t takes one who has lived and suf-
fered under old-world government,
and old-world social castles, properly
to understand America and all that
it stands for.

Convicts Show Higher Intelligence Than
 General Population

CLEVELAND, O., July 14.-Con- victs in penitentiaries show higher average ,of intelligence than the general population, pr. Herman Ad- Ter, of the Cleveland Foundation $ i justice survey, told members of the Cleveland Academy of Medicine at a recent meeting.
 Repeaters, men returned to the penitentiary time after time, show a higher average intelligence than
 those who learn their lessons the first time, Dr. Adler said. Criminals who are caught and
 convicted are not necessarily those least intelligent, but those with an
 antagonizing personality, Dr. Adler explained A nengaging personality is the most frequent cause of mis-
 carriages of justice, he added Ten million people in the United States are classed as feeble minded
 that is, they would be confined if
 brought into court or mental
 clinic, he said.
 These conclusions were derived
 from tabulation of mental tests Of
 t.700,000 men in the draft army,
 and 1000 convicts in the Illinois state penitentiary. The tests in
 turn were confirmed by examinations of selected groups picked according
 to military qualifications before the tests were made.

 One relief project being considered for submission to the city council provides for the appropriation of S1000,000 yearly for number of years to construct four-room homes for the poorer people at d cost of about $3,000 each.
 By selling these homes on a par. tial payment plan it is declared that the proceeds. turned into the con structiOn of more homes, would soon solve the housing problem, and, in cidentally, eliminate the rent prof teer.
