DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK?

That every town should grow. II
IL is to grow II will grow through in
dustrial development.
That when II ceases either to at
tract new industries. or to build its
present industries into bigger, or
more efficient industries, il must
cease growing. become stationary, or
go backward.
That the town with the most un-
stable industries is always the town
that must drink in the fullest meas
ure, the dregs of business depres-
sion, the hardships Of general unem-
ployment the heaviest losses
through business failures and the
greatest Generalization in its entire
economic and commercial structure
That the Industrial development of
many towns has been held back for
many years by lack of such effort to
point out their advantages to manu-
faeturers.
That factories are locating every
day in towns not nearly as favor
ably situated as yours.
That every citizen should have a
better knowledge of your town, its
advantages and its possibilities
That you should not be a drifter,
be builder. Do you strive to make
your town progressive business
town, a friendly town, a town with
vision. a town that will 90 ahead
and each year. through he co-opera-
ton of every citizen, become a big
ger. better, brighter and buster
town?

scene Of national convention deliber-
ations. The pier is located in the
downtown district, just two blocks
from Canal street.
On the river side the pier floor IS
two feet lower than on the opposite

which row upon row of chairs will be
placed will afford every person a di-
rect view Of the speakers rostrum.
New Orleans will be able to seat
IA 900 delegates and visitors in the
mammoth structure. One half Of the
vast floor space will be devoted to the
convention proper; the other half,

| DEPARTMENT will station a chemical
engine at each end of the pier and
will scatter scores Of fire eEtlngulsh-
crs throughout the assembly space.
The flooring is of wood block, set
| closely together, SO as to reduce the
danger from burning cigarette or cl-
gar stubs. Special fire insurance will
| be carried on the warehouse during
the convention.
The interior of the building will be
eEaborately decorated with the flags
Of all Allied powers and with Legion
emblems and banners. A touch OF
New Orleans atmosphere will be
brought to the delegates by the plac-
ing in convention hall of palm trees
and miniature live oaks, hung with
the moss which tiourishes only in
Louisiana.
Amplifiers and magma vox equip.
mcnt will be installed to guard
aguist any trouble with acoustics
The Legion committee will spenC
$1O,0 900 in preparing the pier for con
vention use.
Streets leading to convention hal
will be Illuminated by thousands OF
electric bulbs. The convention com
mittee estimates there will be space
for the parking of 5000 automobiles
at one time, near the building.

THE, OLD SPANISH TRAIL.
Work on Important Military Highway
to Be Rushed.

In letter written to ConressInan
James O'Connor of New Orleans, a
few days ago, Secretary of War
Weeks states that the views and rec
concentrations of the War Depart
ment as to the military Importance
of the Old Spanish Trail, will be
transmitted to- the Department of
Agriculture at an early date. The
department is charged with the de
velopmcnt of the federal road system.
Washington advices to the Times
Picayune recently to the effect that
the New Orleans-Pensacola section of
the Old Spanish Trail is considered
of prime Importance by the War De-
partment. 1t is believed this will be
the first section of national highway
recommended by the War Depart
ment for development for military
purposes.
Funds have been voted for those
sections of the highway between New
Orleans and tho Mississippi state line
not yet completed or under construc-
ton, but bridges are yet to be pro
vided over Chef Menteur and the
Rigolets. Much work also is needed
along the Mississippi coast. New Or
leans highway workers believe an en-
dorsement of the project by the Wan
Department will hasten the compile
ton Of the New Orleans-coast high
way.
