can help a city.

| organization can help a city.
Several days ago Mr.. Nat Daute
rive and Mr.. Charles Pickett were II
Lake Charles attending a state con
vention of The Louisiana Travellers
They thought they saw a chance fol
New Iberia to be selected as the con.
vention city for next year. They were
without authority to act, and imme.
diate action was necessary. They i'm
mediately wired Pres. Carver of the
local Chamber, asking his direction
in the matter. A hurried consulta-
ton was called among a few of the
Board, and the word went back to
Lake Charles that New Iberia wanted
the convention and that she would be
glad to elaborately entertain the de-
legates. The two gentlemen above
mentioned got busy, and thanks to
their efforts, backed up by Pres.
Carver's telegram, New Iberia will
have the honor of being host to a
few hundred members of the Louisi-
ana Travellers next May.
Without an organization prepared
to give quick action this would have
been impossible.
But proof of the necessity of a
Chamber of Commerce for a real,
live town is no longer required. Ev-
erybody seems to agree that we want
such an organization in this city. 1t
only remains now for each and every
one to come across with the little
subscription asked for by the Finance
Committee.
And be sure you don't forget the
big meeting next Wednesday even
ing. Come and see that good
Board of Directors is chosen to han
die the Chambers affairs for the
next year.

STATE BOARD WANTS
BIRTH NOTICES.
Recording OF Birth Very
Important To Child.

The State Board of Health IS max
in@ drive for complete and aecuf-
ate records Of all babies born ii 1927.
In joint letter from the hu.eau If
vital statistics and child hycjcae. we
are asked to request our readers to
send to us for publication the records
Of babies born in this vicinity.
There are local registrars Ia every
ward and in every community. hut
they are not always Informed Of the
birth of children. Sometimes the Ger
titicates ase delayed and many births
are never recorded.
The birth certificate is often need, d
to prove property rights, to obtain
employment, for entrance to school
and in some states to obtain a mar
riage license. 1t is not fair to the
child to neglect this important rec
ord.
Louisiana's death reports are ac-
cepted by the Z s. bureau of the
Census as sufficiently complete to en-
title the state to recognition in the
registration area. With a little help
from the citizens throughout the
state, the required number of birth
certificates can be obtained and the
state will then have equal statistical
rank with other states which have
been accepted by the government

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE WILL HOLD A BIG
MEETING WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
poord of Directors To Be Elected To Manage Organ
izations Affairs For Next IL Months

rrervbody who is interested in the
.ness of New Iberia during the
/ = twelve months, should make it
dir business to be at the New lbe-
ia Chamber Of Commerce headquart-
orc next Wednesday night, when that
lively organization will hold its annu-
:, olaction of a Board Of Directors.
The regular meeting night is Tues
dav but as there are some other
things already scheduled for Tuesday
.ho Chamber Of Commerce has post
noned it's big meeting until the fol-
Loving night, so that everybody can
be on hand.
The Budget Committee has been at
uyork this week, and has prepared a
66st Of expenses for which provision
must be made in the soliciting of
finds for the fiscal year commencing
J,,ly 1st. Based upon this budget of
nrobable expenses, the committee has
made list of the members and the
amount Of subscription that will be
ovnected from each. The rate has
been reduced considerably, as the
Chamber has been able to cut down
expenses very greatly since dispens-
inc with a high salaried manager like
they started out the year with. And
the money each citizen subscribes
now he may rest assured that the
city is going to get one hundred cents
worth Of value from each dollar.
II would be impossible to list here
even a small part of the benefits that
New Iberia has received from her
Chamber of Commerce during the
current year. And the work has
Just begun to get well started. Ev-
erybody who has been a member of
this organization during the past
twelve months will of course renew
his membership for the ensuing year.
Everyone who for one reason or an
other is not now a member should
lose no more time, but come in at
once and join with the bunch that is |
trying to boost the old town.
|, There are only few towns and
3cities around here that have ro
chamber Of Commerce, and they are
trying to organize, almost without
exception, Those that have none, and
those who have weak organizations,
ARE pointing to New Iberia as
worthy example.

Max Linder, which will appear at the
Circle Playhouse tonight. is what you
have wanted for many moons. Critics
who have seen this picture agree that
it is the cleanest big comedy ever
filmed. There are none of the slap

bring out the laughs. There is an
honest-to-goodness story running
through the picture which gives one
ridiculous situation after another.
Seven Years Bad Luck runs the
gamut of things which go 10 make

EDUCATIONAL SERMON
:. ;. AT. METHODIST. CHURCH

Rev. C. E. Peele, pastor Of the Abb
btville Methodist church, preached
yesterday morning a very forceful
sermon on Christian Education. He
cited during his sermon many facts
and figures Of modern life. He
stated that Harvard University was
started through the donation of $2,-
000. 1t had grown and increased in
value and today that one mans for
tune had been held intact through
all the years and he doubted if: any
other fortune Of that day had been
held in tack and increased at such a
rate. He then cited the instance Of
Woford college; where a. local
Methodist preacher had left his for
tune of 100000 for the establish
ment Of that institution which has
paid unaccountable dividends
through the past 70 years, been held
intact and wonderously increased
in value. There is, perhaps, no other
fortune in Spartanburg, of seventy
years ago that has been held togsth-
er as this and paid such dividends
and increased in value as has this
one mans fortune left to bless man
kind through all the ages.
