speak, was held in the Metho-
dist Auditorium, Tuesday even
ing, and was presided over by
Rev. D. B. Boddie, and consisted

tive Association, all and each of
US pledge ourselves that we will
not violate the law ourselves by
hunting and killing game out cf
season or killing in excess of the
bag limit as specified by law. Be
it further resolved that we and
each of US willsdo our best to soc
that the law is enforced and OBJ
served in South Rapides Parish,
and that if it is known by either
of US that any person or persons
are violating or have violated the
law by killing Quail or other
game out of season or have kill
ed in excess of the bag limit as
specified by law, that we will re.
port same to proper. authority, |
and that we will put forth our
utmost efforts to secure convic-
ton in such cases regardless of |
who the violator or violators are. |

cising the manner in which the Asso-
ciated Charities are raising funds to

the following. 1t does not seem sur

City connected with the United
States.
Representative Ernest Ackerman
OF New Jersey says the bridge
across the Hudson will be "the
most stupendous engineering work
yet undertaken, surprising in that
respect, and also in final cost, the
Panama Canal"
The actual bridge will cost at
least $lO0,0OO00O About $l15,000,.
900 additional will be required for
the terminal towers from which the
huge cables will be suspended.
These terminal towers will rise into
the air 6S5 feet. Very strong tow
erS required, to support 100000
tons, the weight of the steel in the
suspended section. More millions
required, for the approaches.
1t makes you wonder, is there
any limit to the engineering power
of man, second only to the ant Gin
proportion to size) as a builder?
This enormous expenditure Of
money, human labor and materials
is necessary because people persist
in flocking to join the swarm in
New York City, each year on a
larger scale,
1t is just beginning OF what
will be required in the future. All
this, the penalty OF flocking to an
island.
In the long run, it might be
cheaper to abandon New York City
proper and move the swarmers to
the mainland of the United States.
1t starts you wondering if, after
all, many of our vast engineering
feats" are not rather futile. The
high cost of swarming together,
like all Other costs, has a prohibi-
tive limit.

EDITORIAL
OF THE DAY
THE KAIsER's WEDDING

There is more than appears on the
surface in the wedding of the late kai-
ser. This is a conviction that is slowly
fastening itself upon observing people.
The conditions in German are rapid
ly leading TO an objective which an in
fluential part of the German people
have ever had in mind William Hohen-
zollern does not admit that the curtain
has finally rung down upon his act He
is not only waiting for an encore. but
is preparing for it and confidently eX-
pecting it.
Tine is the great healer. The passions
of three years ago have not altogether
disappeared, but they have become
somewhat mellowed. If the failure of
the socialist government in Germany
once become apparent, if the great mid.
die class of the German people once
lose faith in the existing political sys-
TEN, and at that moment the monarch
lists attempt their coup, it may be that
the world at large VIII not be nearly
so indignant as some folks believe.
Beyond question, plans are making
and have been making for months-for
the return Of William to the throne
OF his ancestors. Ire Ebert govern
ment has not made good-oither at
home or abroad. The German folk have
been too Ions accustomed to a strong
government 10 forever be content with
the vacilating evasiye structure thai
