THE tongues of international gossip
have been set wagging at great
rate by the sudden recall Of the
gay young Prince Mohammed Hassan
Mira. heir-presumptive TO the Persian
throne. from what was TO have been a
long Summer outing az Monte Carlo
surrounded by group of boon compan.
ions. he had been enjoying the season to
the full, when suddenly, in the midst OF
the gayety peemptory official telegram
arrived from the Shah, ordering him back
to his regiment at Teheran.
II was a mystery scandal that created a
lively interest, not only on the Riviera, but
in Paris and New York as well. tor the
young Persian Prince, on his former visits
10 the French capital, has been familiar

who are in touch with social and diplomatic
life on the Continent
Since my own recent arrival in New York

pered versions OF what went on behind
the scenes at Monte Carlo before the
young Prince was sent home like bad
boy--but the true story, / am sure. has
never been told until now.

! think you may agree with me, when
you have heard what the three episodes
were, that Prince Mrza's actions can best
be described with>such adjectives as eccen-

wicked

Death of Felix Garcie, Jr.

After a long illness, Felix Garcie,
Jr., son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Felix Gar
Gle, Sr., formerly of Port Barrow, but
now residents of New Orleans, died
at the home of his parents last Thurs
day afternoon at 2:50 o'clock, aged
16 years and months. The remains
were brought to Donaldsonville via
the Texas and Pacific railway, arriv-
ing here at 2 p. m. yesterday, and
the funeral took place upon the ar
rival of the train, with services at
the Catholic church and internment
in the family tomb in the Catholic
cemetery, and was largely attended
by sorrowing relatives and friends.
Felix Garcie, father of the deceased,
for many years was engaged in the
flatboat business on Bayou Lafourche.
He is now connected with the Brad

reavement.

Burning Sands" :"

This story of desert love, produced
on a lavish scale, has been justly
termed " mans answer to THE
Sheik.'" 1t tells a story of a pleas
ure loving young woman who feels
herself "emancipated" but who is
really slave to her whims and de-
sire, Wanda Hawley was never more
beautiful and fascinating as that girl,
Muriel. That man, Milton Sills, as
Lane who lives among the Arabs,
does the best work of his screen car
reer. The story rises to its climax
as Muriel in love with Lane and
baffled by his Indifference, determines
to break it down by flouting con-
vention and going to him at his oasis
in the desert. When she arrives there
and offers herself, Lane is put to
the supreme test. But he conquers
himself, and proves to Muriel that
there is no harem, no weakness in
his character-and no woman in his
life. An excellent cast supports Miss
Hawley and Mr.. Si.!s in Burning
Sands" including such well-known
players as Jacquelinc Logan, Robert
Cain, Winter Hall, Louise Dresser
and others. This high-class photo
play will be next Tuesdays offering
at the Grand Theatre.

High School Notes.

The Donaldsonville High School
girls basketball team played their
first game last Friday with the Brusly
club. The contest resulted in victory
for the BruSly girls by a score Of
Is to 5. Much school spirit was
manifested and the home girls kept
up their courage to the end.
"Coco' is quite familiar to the pu
pills Of the high school. 1t is the
name Of the short story, written by
Marjorie Crawford, which won first
prize at the South Louisiana fair. 1t
is going to be told by its author
at the meeting of the Alwes Literary
Society next Friday, and all persons
interested in the school are invited
10 attend the meeting. The seniors
are justly proud of their amateur
authoreSS and of the work the men,
bers of their class are doing and wish
to prove their worth to others.
In an effort to increase the read
ing Of current literature, history and
science, Miss Anderson has interest
ed the high school pupils in good mag
azines. Several prizes were won at
the South Louisiana fair on short
stories and on note books. The pu-
pills to whom these prizes were award
ed have donated the money to the
school and it is to be used for the
purpose of purchasing a few excel
lent magazines. A number of stu
dents have contributed dimes to this
fund and several magazines are being
donated. In short time the local
high school library will have on its
tables all of the best magazines pub
lished
The AIwes Literary Society held
it's second meeting last Friday after
noon. The following program was

American Legion, by Willie Brandt !;

Three Cheers For the Chief"

The Chief is in receipt of letter
from two former Donaldsonville boys,
who are now located in Brooklyn, and
who sign themselves, 1.-TWO Admir-
crs,'' which reads as follows: Here
IN the heart of little old New York
are two former Donaldsonville boys
who anxiusly await the arrival of
your nvwsy little Chief, and devour
the contents of its columns with the
eagerness O ia Shakespearean scholar
delving into the works of his master
And why such enthusiasm, Simply
because it keeps us in touch with
the doings Of the old home town.
''It certainly affords ample matter
for interesting conversations which
sometime develop into heated argu-
ments rivaled only by those in which
New York bleacherite fans '''e,ome
involved during the World Series.
"New York and its wonders may
charm one for while but horne news
always acts as soothing balm to any
ailments contracted in the great met
ropolis.

people visited Donaldsonville during
the eight days of the fair, and the
fact that not single accident, mis-
hap, robbery, fight or misunderstand
ing of any kind occurred in the town
or at the fair grounds during the en-
tire time, reflects credit upon the
excellent management of the fair as
we'll as of the city. Strangers came
here in vast numbers. They con-
Quoted themselves peacefully: they
weer royalty welcomed and hospit-
ably entertained; they enjoyed the
exhibits and the attractions, and left
! loud in the praise of the fair. of the
fair city and of its people.
The gate receipts on the closing
day amounted to $4,000, and it is
generally believed that the associa-
tion will clear between $4,000 and
$4,000 on this years exposition. This
will enable it to wipe; out at least
one-half Of it's outstanding indebted
ness and still have a surplus to apply

Trimming the Trees in the Streets

i
A force of men under the supervi-
sion of D. Ohlmeyer, commissioner
of streets and parks, and Chief of
Police, R. E. Dill, have been at work
this week cutting the branches and
trimming some of the large sycamore
trees in various streets of the city.
Two of the trees, almost directly in
front of the office Of the late Capt.
R. McCulloh, the roots of which had
undermined the sidewalk, were cut
down and removed and the roots
of two others, which were likewise
disturbing the sidewalk in the same
place but nearer Railroad avenue,
were cut and removed-and the stretch
of banquet rebuilt and made level
and smooth. This piece of sidewalk
had been in a bad condition for q
long time and grew worse as the un-
derming tree roots grew larger and
it's repair will be greatly appreciated
by a large number of people who
walk over it daily.
