trying to do something for the
town.
/ Perhaps. the outstanding char
acteristics Of Mr.. Policeman that
/ specially fitted hin tor pub ic
Office were his courtesy, his SIM
cerity, and his courage. One felt
that his courtliness of manner
came from an innate respect for
his fellow man, that he was entire
Iy free from prctense and never
played politics, aud that he had
the courage to carry out his con-
vIctions.
He was the soul of generosity
and gave himself, his time and
his means most freely for what he
considered the best interests of
the town.
He had the enthusiasm that
could catch vision and the energy
and patience that would carry it
out.
He possessed a rare sense of
civic cleanliness, order and beauty
that made him peculiarly suited
to the Office of mayor. He bad
his heart set upon a clean and
beautiful Natchitoches. As a con-
sequence we have had the cleanest
and healthiest town in the state
this summer, and if he could have
been spared to carry out his plans
we would have had in the future
a veritabIe city beautiful.
His passing is a serious loss to
the community and to every citi-
zen who has enjoyed the blessings
of the pure water, the clean
the untainted air, and the
cutters which his
vigilance provided.

A great business man recently
attributed his Success to the fact
that he was not leaner." He
thought for himself. This was
true of Mayor Poleman:
He was a man of convictions
He had high ideals of the pubIic's
good, and dared stand by them in
the face of tremendous opposition.
Many men would have weakened
and given in, where he dared TO
stand.
His life sounds out a call to
faithfulness to ones convictions;
and of him it may be said: ''hc
being dead yet speaketh." Speak
eth unto us living, demanding that
we do our duty as private citizens;
and as officials, that We regard "a
public Office as public trust.
May not every citizen Of Match.
itoches determine that the flame
which burned in Mr.. Poleman's
heart for the community's i'm
provement may light our own
hearts with such a zaai for orr
public good, that his bright hopes
shall be wrought into glorious
reaIities9

TRIBUTES
Continued from page q

Aside from the wonderful in
spiration, he was for co operation
in his desire and ambition to make
Natchitoches not one of. but the
most healthful and beautiful city
in the State, he was one of Da-
lures noblemen, courteous and
gentle to old and young alike,
thereby gaining for him the love
and esteem of all.
MRS. JOANNA PHILLIPS.

l know of no more fitting tribute
to our late Mayor POLICEMAN than
my remarks TO him just a few
days before his death. While
complimenting him upon his re-
cent financial success, Il told him
of a remark l had recently made
to the effect that were it possible
for scme phiianthropist or super
power to make it possible
for me 10 endow some Natchito-
ches citizen with vast fortune,
with the understanding that l give
it to the one that would do the
most good with it, that l would
immediately select him.
It can be truthfully said of him
that he possessed that rare and
quality, which offsets
all worldly vices. ''He Loved His
Fellow Man"
