Our Paper Mill is nearing
completion and we expect to gel
into operation about October
1st, and we will then be ready
to buy your accumplations OF
rice straw, but would like to
make a few suggestions to you
First, that you cut your straw
as close to the ground as pos
sible, thereby you will get sew
eral more tons per acre, which
will be quite a saving to you.
Second, that you have your
straw piled as close to the
Bayou Teche and main roads
as possible, thereby you will
save time and expense in bail
ing and hauling your straw to
the mill or box cars at your
nearest railroad station.
All the straw will be bought
F. O. B. our mill New Iberia, La.
ION the basis air drv weight and
| all straw that is shipped to us
wet, the weight of the water in
this straw will be deducted
from the air dry weight, accord
ing to the amount of water
shown in our laboratory test.
However, you can rest assured
that The Charles Boldt Paper
Mills Company, will give you a
square deal in all of our pur-
chases Of Straw from you and
| all we ask is your kind coop
Grafton in helping US to get our
supply of straw so we can keep
our mill running the full time
the year round.
Yours truly,
The Charles Boldt Paper Mills
Company.

would like to have the voice of the Board

general discussion of the matter, it was
moved that resolutions be adopted urg-
ing the Police Jury to continue the ad-
vertisements and sell the bonds for at

ALLIES RECOGNIZE U. S. RIGHT TO
HELP HANDLE WAR SPOILS.

| WASHINGTON, July 1s.-The first
big diplomatic victory for the Harding
administration has come with recoeni-
ton by the Allies of the right of the
United States to voice in the DISPOSE
ton OF the spoils of war, in this case
the mandates authorized by the Versailles
treaty.
Although acquiescence of the powers
in the position of this government that
its failure to sign the Versailles treaty.
had not in any way affected its right to
participation in a distribution of the
fruits Of the war had already been some
what discounted by the recent action of
the League Of Nations, the fact that the
principal Allied and associated powers
have actually begun negotiations regard
ing the mandate question with the United
States was first made known at the
State Department today.
This means that the powers have fin
ally recognized that the mandates awarded
by the League Of Nations have not been
and cannot be riRhtfully awarded until
the United States has given it, consent to
the form of the mandate and to the ma
tions which accept the mandate.
It means reconsideration, among other
things, of the award Of the Mesopota main
mandate to Great Bhitain and the Yap
mandate to Japan, the two principal man
dates to which the United States has
been objecting.
Incidentally, it is understood to mean
that all mandates, such as those for
former German colonies in Africa, for the
islands in tie North as we'll a. the South
Pacific and all other territory disposed Of
by the United States.
The fact that negotiations are going
on among the powers for adjustment Of
the mandate question was not denied by
the State Department today, Although
there was no clew whatsoever either a.
to the mode or possible time Of se.tie-
nent. The department would only say
that it could not discuss the nssotiations.

SCRIPTURE

John, 9th Chapter 4th to 14th Verse.
And the passover, feast Of the
Jews, was nigh.
When Jesus then lifted up his eyes,
and saw a good company come unto
him, he saith unto Philip, Whence
shall we buy bread, that these may
eat?
And he said this to prove him for
he himself knew what he would do.
Philip answered him Two hundred
pennyworth of bread, is not sufficient
for them, that every one of them
may take little.
One of his disciples, Andrew, ST.
mon Peters Brother, saith unto him.
There is lad here which hath
five barley loaves and two small
fishes: but what are they among so
many?
And Jesus said, Make the men sit
down. Now there was much grass IN
the place. So the men sat down, in
number about five thousand
And Jesus took the loaves; and
when he had given thanks. he dis
tributed to the disciples, and the dis
ciples to them that were sit down;
and likewise Of the fishes as much
as they would.
When they were filled. he said
unto his disciples, Gather up the
