i In this Parish the work has beel
placed in the hands of Hon. julie
Dreyfus, and this seems to assure
success locally of this excellent pro
ject.

fus outlines the work:
Mr.. Jules Dreyfus,
New Iberia, Louisiana.
Dear Mr.. Dreyfus:-
We have been advised that Mr.
Herbert Hoover, Chairman of the
European Relief Council with head
quarters in New York, has appointed
you Chairman of your Parish Com
mittee to conduct the collection OF
funds that will be expended to re-
lieve the suffering among three mil
lion children in Eastern and Cen
trail Europe. We respectfully urge
you to accept the appointment and SO
notify US by wire or return special
delivery. State headquarters have
been opened in the Association of
Commerce Building from which point
we will give you all assistance neces-
sary to successfully conduct the soli-
citation of funds over your Parish
On this letter head you will please

The heads and working forces of

possible to help you organize your

required detail work. In addition,
the force at headquarters is now

The need of the starving children
in Central and Eastern Europe is
most urgent. 1t is a life-a nd-death
situation in Europe, where orphaned,
destitute, famished children, pitiful
consequences of the World War, must
die unless aid is sent. America is
called upon to tide these innocent
little ones over to the next harvest.
Mr.. Hoover estimates that $4,000,
300 is necessary. Louisiana is ex-
pected to give literally. We have
accepted no quota, leaving the sum

NEW IBERIAN WINS $500 IVORY
SUITE.

Laurent Dauterive and his brother,
Frank, who make up the Dauterive
Furniture company of Lafayette, New
Iberia and London, created more ex-
citement than a presidential election
when they closed their thirty-day
furniture sale of New Years Eve
with $500 New Years gift for one
Of their thousands of customers. The
closing day Of the sale was featured
with the award of $500 Ivory Bed
room Suite to one Of the customers
participating in that sale, and as
there were hundreds of them, all hold
ing tickets that made them eligible to
fine New Years gift, the entire
street in the vicinity Of their Jeffer-
son street store was jammed for half
a block in either direction. The
crowds came early and stayed late,
for 1t took some little time to make
the decision as to who should get the
pretty outfit. Finally, all elimina-
tons finished, No. 1886 remained as
first choice and No. 2671 as second
choice, the latter being no good UNI
less the first failed to show up in |
thirty days.
Nobody presented that number I'M
i'll Monday morning, when E. M.
Boutte of New iberia went into the
New Iberia branch Of this syndicate
and laid the lucky number on Mr..
Frank Dauterive's desk with the re-
luest that the bedroom suite be hand-l
d over. The Lafayette Office was
lotified by phone and the news given
'ut. The suite will be delivered in
he company's auto truck just as soon
s the roads get in shape for traffic,

OF F. 7. MOUTON.

ture and a resume of his life, en-
titled:

Loyal Friend and Master Sales

Romance is always young" said
Whittier. at is the truth of imagi-
nation and boyhood," said Wilmott
at is the parent of golden dreams, y
said Byron. And F. T. Mouton says
that each one of these famous writ
ers are quite right, for Mouton knows
because he is romantic and admits it.
Was he not born on the famous Bay
GU Teche immortalized by Longfel-
low in Evangeline? The very name
Mouton savors of romance. Incl
dentally few Northerners pronouce
it correctly. 1t is not Newton or
Mow-ton, but Mouton, just like that.

is, therefore, as near as we can ex
press it in the limitations of TWEEN

with the accent decidedly on the first
syllable and with nasal touch to
the second.
F. T. Mouton was born in 1881.
His first job was selling papers-ro-
mantle papers they were and are
The Saturday Evening Blade and
The Chicago Ledger. When the time
came for him to pick out career
it was the druggy atmosphere that
appealed. He served his apprentice
ship under the direction of an old
French chemist by the name of Gard
ebleu, at Lafayette, La. After what
he considered sufficient experience in
a practical way, he matriculated at
the New Orleans College of Pharma-
~. In due time he was presented
with a piece of paper with his name
n gold, followed by the coveted let
,ers Phi. G., signifying that he had
got what he went after and was at
liberty to go out and try his luck.
AS prescription clerk he worked
sixteen hours a day, with the remain
ng time at his disposal to do as he
pleased, provided there were no
light calls. 1t occurred to him that
lie was in excellent training for
raveler's job. Lilly's he recogniz-
d as house worthy of his best eff
orts, which he has given since his
in January, 1916. It
vas in 1916 also that he married, and
e is now the father of most re-
child of three-emphasis
n the remarkable.
AS a pastime, Mr.. Mouton enjoys
othing better than sitting on a log
empting the finny tribe to swallow
ait, hook, and line.
At vacation time Mr.. Mouton can
sually be found at home; or if not
,ere somewhere along the river arm
l with fishing pole and basket and
