Nature is closely associated,

though a man die, yet ,nr hi

understandable why the nso'1' ,n'
of the State of Arizona. tbmna, rr'rs
its legislature, decreed that t,s a.
Governor shall designate ~ !,

custom. ''
1t is the duty of the Governs
to make proclamation reon
mending that the Arbor Dar

planting of trees, shrubs ana
vines, in the promotion of forest
and orchard growth and cuhr
in the adornment of public ai
private grounds, places andV
and in such other efforts and
undertakings as shall be in bs
mony with the character Of tl
day so established.
There is special admontionh
the statutes that the Childrend
public schools shall assist, 70
the end that school grounds
shall be adorned with trees, this
to be an object lesson in The
benefits of the preservation and
perpetuation of the forests Il
is made the duty of the SchM
authorities to cause the children
to assemble and to hold eXa
cises to include the planting
protection and preservation Of
trees and shrubs.
In no other section Of On
Union is this day of such prime
importance as in Arizona. Here
a tree means the presence Of
water and it's shade is dOuOy
grateful to the wayfayer or
the homebuilder. The planting
of trees means Developments
the advance of civilization. VH
State is of such grand diner

necessary to provide two dates

information shows, numbered thirty
two vessels OF Sl1,050 tons, while the
United States possessed sixteen ves-
sells of 435.75 tons and Japan ten YES
sells OF 2SS,320 tons.
While capital ships under construc-
ton for the American navy, including
twelve dreadnaughts and six battle
cruisers, to be completed in 1928. will
virtually offset the British preponder-
ance in this class of vessels, the in
formation shows that the American
fleet still will be greatly inferior in
types OF vessels regarded by naval Of
ficers as of first importance In naval
strength.
These types include notably destroy
er leaders. cruisers and light cruisers
and cruising submarines.
Although with completion OF the au-
thorized building programs of the two
countries. the American navy will
have only six battle cruisers as COM
pared with twelve for that OF Japan.
It will more than maintain a 100 per
cent superiority by virtue OF Its great
er number OF battleships and supple
mental types OF war craft.

WAR FINANCE BOARD
READY. FOR BUSINESS

Notwithstanding war finance cor.
poration is open for business. accord.
ing to Secretary Houston. He said the
means to be adopted by the corpora
ton in making advances to exporters
would not be determined until It was
known what needs the corporation
would be called upon to meet. Funds
for making the loans must be borrow
ed by the corporation Of the treasury,
he said, but until II Is known how
much money will be required, 1t would
be poor policy to pay interest on the
loan fund
Secretary Houston said the fact that
the corporation cannot make advances
directly to producers, but must extend
its loans to exporters or instituted
financing exports, should not be lost
sight OF. Applications are required,
he said, to satisfy the corporation that
they cannot obtain the desired loan
elsewhere on reasonable terms; must
produce adequate security and the ex-
port proposition must meet approval
of the corporation. From this, IL would
appear, he added, that an exporter
must have his contract before loan
from Ole corporation can be obtained.

I Now that our Main Street
from the Post Office to the up
Iper limits of New Iberia is well
lighted up with a nice White
Way would it not be a good idea
for some public spirited East
Ender to circulate petition
asking the new City Administra-
ton to light up East End from
the Post Office to the end of the
City limits. No better invest
ment could be made by the
property holders than to have
that section of the City lighted
up in conformity with the other
section of Main Street. We feel
certain Mayor La Sale and the
other two commissioners would
readily give their consent and
furnish the current, if the
money is raised to purchase the
lights and erect them. Unless
the money is appropriated by
the property holders for an inn
provement of this nature, it is
impossible for the City Commits
sioners to finance 1t. The cost
erly prorated, and East End
is but little to each one, if prop
not only is entitled to be as we'll
lighted as the remainder of
Main Street, but the program
should be carried out and every
street in the City lighted in tho
same manner, if it is possible to
do so. We dare say there has
not been a single public i'm
provement, other than the paw
ing, that attracts the same at
tention as does our White Way.
People on passing trains arc
bound to notice it and it makes
a lasting impression on each Wis
itor. The first impression Is
one that is lasting and well
lighted and beautified commun-
ity with everything in keeping
speaks for itself. Let every
thing we do be just a little bit
better than the surrounding
towns and in that way New Ibe-
ria will soon be recognized bv
the outside world as the most
enterprising City in the State

F.; Seeing the urgent need for
ia free night school, for young
men over Is years of age, Mrs.
Chas. w. Cultivate who has
always manifested a great inter-
est in education and other mat
tiers of interest to the commun-
/ ty has interviewed twelve or fif-
teen gentlemen and all of them
expressed a desire to be en-
rolled in the classes. From
what we learn she is meeting
with a great deal of encourage
ment, several members of the
School Board have proffered
their support in measures to
maintaip school at some near
future time. A free night school
where the men who have been
deprived of school can attend
and secure this God-given priv
ilege of advancing themselves,
would be quite an acquisition to
New Iberia at this time. We
trust the members of the School
Board will make an appropria-
ton for a free night school as
soon as they feel that they can
do SO without in any way cur
failing the instructors of the
public schools of the Parish.
The citizens of New Iberia we
feel sure will extend to Mrs.
their moral as wei.
as their financial aid when she
is ready to launch this worthy
project.

farmers. They were the best

This has been q banner season
for the tomtao crop. Almost
daily we see them peddled
around and sold for almost
nothing. Even the cantaloup
crop was very bOuntiful this
year, but the market has kept
up and the truck growers are
enabled to realize what the crop
is worth, 50 great has been the
demand this season.

willie was the victim of an un-
fortunate accident last Friday
night, having had his skull
crushed and he has since been
in a precarious condition at the
home of MIR. Adonis Gonsoulin,
where he was taken for treat
ment. From the reports we
hear, he,. accompanied by Mr..
Paul BrOussard and Mr.. James
Dauterive were riding in a truck
on their way home from hunt
in Lake Dauterive and when
nearing the property of Mr..
Gonsoulin they plunged their
truck into a tractor that had
been left on the roadside with
out light. The truck that the
occupants were in was also
without a light at the time. The
collision was 50 violent that Mr..
Berard WIS thrown head first
against the tractor and suffered
such a conclusion of the skull
that it was thought he would
soon expire. DR.. Guy A. Shaw
and DIR. J. w. K. Shaw of this
City Immediately went to his
assistance and number of
homes were extracted from his
skull. The shock was so vio-
lent that he became completely
paralyzed. On Thursday even
ing we learned that he was
slightly better and hopes were
now entertained that he might
possibly recover. This shorld
be a lesson to those who persist
in travelling after dark without
any lights on their cars as there
's no telling when some obstruc-
ton is left on a public road and
those who travel without the |
proper headlight take a risk of |
heine killed or injured for life. |
From what we could ascertain |
he tractor which was left on
he road had gotten out Of order
and the owner could not 90 any
'urther with it, which accounts |
or it being on the roadside.

We had an appreciated cal
on Wednesday from Mr.. F. j
Feight of Jeanerette, manager
of the Teche Transfer Co. In
discussing the question of the
bus line from New Iberia to La
fayette. Mr.. Feight informed us
that while they had leased a
brick building here and taken
over all of the buses of the
Weeks Island Transfer Com
pany to begin operation of their
cars in the territory West of
New Iberia that after an inspec-
ton of the Burke highway he
deemed it unwise to run his
husses over the road until next
Fall. He said the Company
could not afford to trust its cars
over the road, unless a binder
was put on the ton of the high
way, and it would take several
months for the gravel to be suf-
ficiently packed down to insure
cafe travel. This is unfortunate
for the BUSINESS houses of New
iberia as a bus line operating in
the upper country means thou
sands of dollars worth of addi-
tional business to our merchants.
We trust, however, that the
gravel will be driven down in
the soil sufficiently, within the
next two months to permit the
extension of this connecting
link to the line operating be-
tween New Iberia and Morgan
City. Once this Company es-
tablishes here, making New
Iberia the hub of South Louisi-
ana we can then look forward
to a greater volume of trade dis
tributed among our business
houses.
