Further search OF La Fourche lake,

includes exploration OF every lake in
Morehouse parish.
The investigation which resulted in
a decision by the state authorities to
search the lakes has been under way
nearly four months, it was said to-
day. Governor Parker and Attorney
General Coce are reported to have be-
gun their inquiry Immediately after
the kidnapping, but have declined to
divulge its results.
The investigators are said to have
obtained evidence that on the night
of the kidnapping all telephone wires
between Mer Rouge and Bastrop were
cut. The identity of the man who or
dered the cutting OF the wires, it was
stated, is known to the investigators.
A number of civilians who accompa-
MED the troops to Cooper lake re-
turned to Mer Rouge and reported
that no one had been found near the
points where the guards report having
seen number of men wading about.
The militia company was ordered to
camp at the lake.

The Demand for Poetry.

Foreigners, not always with compli-
mentary intent, used to say that
American was better at doing than
thinking and that this continents
particular contribution to civilization
was large scale productiin and great
engineering feats such as the Old
World never attempted. Recently some
outside observers have begun TO notice
what must have become very obvious
to our native critics, that there has
recently been an extraordinary demand
for poetry in this country. There are
ten or a dozen magazines devoted ex-
clusively TO poetry; the most widely
circulated daily newspapers and week
lies all print poems, many of them
of high order; there are many poetic
societies springing up all over the
country, and at least one large univer-
sity formally invited a poet, as poet,
to take his place on its faculty and do
in poetry among the students.
These newspapers and magazines of
large circulation would not continue TO
print poetry unless the managers and
editors who direct them were con-
WINGED that il was Of interest to their
readers. Poetry is not yet a best
seller, but IL is good seller. Lib
rarians report that poetry, both
classics and contemporary verse, is
much in demand, and not merely
among teachers and professional stu
dents. This tendency does not mean
that the United States is losing its
practical capacity and great engineer
ing skill and losing itself in poetic
dreams and visions. II does signify
that North America, which in this in
stance may include Canada, where
precisely the same tendencies may be
noted, is more and more advancing TO- !
ward literary independence and
seeking TO express In its own language
its reaction to it's environment. Be !
