CENTER. ST. CITIZENS
FAVOR CONCRETE.
HELD BIG MEETING ON TUES
DAY NIGHT.

The meeting held last Tuesday
evening by the property owners on
Center Street, was largely attended
and much interest was aroused over
the question Of paving that thorough
fare.
The place Of meeting was m FIRE
Company No. z Hall, and thc meet
inp had been called hV Dr. M r..
Carstens. Mr.. julius Koch acted as
chairman of the meeting.
1t was practically decided that a
pavement of concrete should rs put
down, but the proposition n the eH-
act width Of the work. and whether
or not clrhing should be built on the
sides. was moot question.
The final result Of the discussion
was to request the City Board OF
Trustees to advertise for bids on a
SQUARE yard basis, for concrete work.
both with and without curbIng
When these bids are received y
will bc AZ easy matter " ascertain
lust how many feet wide the street
can be paved, and whether or not the
cnrbs can be financed The property
owners will then meet again and give
the Board of Trustees q final expires
sion of their wishes.
These details will necessarily take
a few weeks Of time, but II y lnstl-
fable delay. when such an amount Of
money is to be expended, as those
who are providing the funds are en-
titled To yet the most possible N re
turn for their outlay.
On whatever plans the paving Of
Center Street is finally worked out, It
il certain to be wen done. as when
the taxpayers show this much interest
only good can result.
st. Peter Street, Julia Street ana
East Main should be next N line.
They are sadly in need Of pavement,
and if the owners Of property along
these streets hope to maintain their
real estate values they must keep UP
with the pace set by the rest Of the
principal streets Of the city.

PASSAGE THIS SESSION.

One question that will no doubt
come before the state legislature dur
ing its present session is the passage
of Stock Law. state wide bill
providing that every keeper of live
stock must fence them IN. so that
those who do not keep live stock may
remove all fences from their proper
ties and be fully assured against dam

Several parishes of Louisiana now
have such parish ordinances. but the
present idea is to make il state

OUPER|eR AND CENTER
MADE RESIDENCE STS.
CITY COUNCIL BARS STORES
ON THESE STREETS.

A few weeks ago. when it became
known that a party had purchased 2
lot at the corner Of Duperer Avenue
and Marie Streets, opposite the Dau-
terive Sanitarium, and that gro
Gerry and fruit stand was to be erect
ed thereon, petition was signed by
most OF the property owners on that
street requesting the City Board of
Trustees to pass an ordinance making
Duperier Avenue Residential ST..
and prohibiting the building of any
stores Of whatever nature on It or
within three hundred feet Of it on
any side street.
This was done, and now that street
is protected from becoming com
mercialized.
On Monday evening Supt. Porter
appeared before the Board of Trus-
tees of the City with a request that
similar protection be provided for
Center Street. from Main back past
the site of the new High School build
ing.
This is precaution against the
number Of small stores that would
almost certainly spring up around
the new school as soon as it would
be completed This would greatly
diminish the value Of that street as
a residence street, and would also
lessen the attractiveness of the school
property.
The City Council acceeded to the
wishes of the school board and the
residents on Center Street, and the
necessary ordinance is now being
published as required by law, and
will no doubt be adopted when it
comes up for final action after two
publications.
