A Splendid Idea

Below is given letter received
from Mr.. V. L. Roy which con-
tains a splendid suggestion for a
memorial to our martyred mayer.
This is one time when our en-
tire citizenship should get to.
gether and work together to carry
out the ideas and ideals of Mr..
Poleman. No more fitting tribute
or memorial could be erected to
his memory than the working out
in detail of plans he had made for
the beautifying and improving of
Natchltoches.
November 10Th, 1923.
Editor Natchitoches Enterprise:
The loss of so valuable a men,
Der of society as L. E. Poleman
will inspire many to give their
estimates of his many excellent
qualities. Permit me to empha-
size in few words one of the
hopes and aspirations of MIR. Pole
man which appears to me to have
been among the most commend
able undertakings Of his admins
tration as Mayor of Natchitoches.
I refer to his plans and purposes
regarding the city beautiful move
ment which has recently been
taking form in our community.
In my judgment, there is no
one in our town who appreciated
more keenly or felt greater inter
est in the beautifying of Natchi-
toches. l. was my good fortune
to discuss this matter with him
on many occasions, and always
admired the splendid vision that
he showed and the thoughtful
conclusions that he had arrived at
in this mxter.
l believe that no finer testi-
monial could be given bv this
community to the high esteem and
appreciation in which MIR. Pole
man was held by everyone than
10y carrying out his plans for Il
City Beautiful as he conceived it.
Our city is unanimous in the
opinion that Mr.. POLICEMAN, in
view of his excellent personal
attributes and his self sacrificing
devotion to public duty, merits Il
testimonial that will be enduring.
None, l am sure, would more
strongly appeal to him, If he
could this day send US message
from beyond the vale, than the
permanent beautifying of our
town in memory of his life and
work.
Accordingly, / venture to sug-
gest that our mayor and city CON-
uissioners appoint permanent
City Beautiful Commission to ex-
ecute this work.

Mayor T.. 2. Poleman was a
generous man. Never accumuiat-
ing, perhaps, great wealth, he,
nevertheless, was always able to
contribute admirably to those
whose needs were clearly greater
than his own. What is perhaps
the better test. be found time.
amid the conduct of his municipal
duties, which could pot be long
neglected, to give his personal
attention to several of our most
useful and worthy charities. Be
meath an exterior which revealed
but little emotion, and which at
times was even suggestive Of in
difference, beat q heart which was
capable of great pleasure or great
pain. In his death We have lost
one of our most progressive and
useful citizens.

The loss of our beloved mayor.
7. E. Poleman, is one of the
greatest losses that Natchitoches
has sustained.
If l were to select the most
comprehensive word with which
to characterize Mr.. POleman's life
and temperament it would be
Kindness" He exemplified that
character in o most charming
manner when he refused to pay
for the repairs on Cropper's we'll
and offered to contribute his per-
sonal fund, through charity, to
repair the we'll.
He was an exponent ofthe three
virtues as was once defined by an
Oxford student:
''Faith-the gift that saves
mankind;
Hope the gift that cheers
mankind;
''Charity-the gift that makes
men kind"
And long after his achievements
and civic eminence shall be only
pleasant memories, the large
heartedness, the willing service.
and the gifts Of kindness of T. E.
Poleman will keep his memory
beloved.

Natchitoches mourns for her
late mayor. L. E. Poleman. whose
life was given for his people.
Coming amongst our cItizenry
some fifteen years ago, he has
ever, as individual and then in his
capacity of mayor, assisted in the
upbuilding and Identification of
our town, stood for the right and
proper course at all times, .and
one whose big heart ever opened,
whose charity knev no bounds,
and whose love Tor his people and
their welfare was limitless.
Taken from US at the time of
his greatest usefulness, the City
and its people have indeed suffer-
ed great loss and it will be diff
cult to find another like unto him.
We should each and all strive
to perfect and curry out his plans
for Natchitoches as a testimonial
to his worthiness and as a monu
ment to his memory.

AS O tribute to our late lament.
ell mayor, Hon. T. E. Poleman,
would say that his untimely pass
ing is a great loss and heavy blow
to the community. Mr.. Poleman
was q man of education, refine.
ment and accomplishments, with
high ideals aud deep conception
Of civic duty; he had put upon
himself the task of making bis
adopted home ''the city clean and
beautiful" It is sad indeed that
he was not spared to accomplish
all he had planned and hoped to
do. During his short service as
mayor he had set . high standard
of devotion to public duty. The
greatest tribute that could be paid
his memory would be for the
united civic spirit of the commun-
ity to take up the work where he
was forced to leave it and carry it
to successful completion, particu
larly 80 with the Lake Front
which he planned and hoped to
make q beauty.spot-a playground
for the children and breathing
space for the community, with a
great bridge as a memorial to our
heroic soldiers. And it all might
be dedicated, jointly as monu-
ment to his sacrifice TO- duty and
service!
