JAMESTOWN

This name will PROBABLY bring to the
minds of a great many people, lit
tie flag station on the l.. & A. R. R.,
with no depot, a small rural school
and two small stores. But as that I'M
preston now is all together wrong
and out-of-date we wish to state a
few facts about the Jamestown OF to-
day, the inevitible little city OF to-
morrow.
Jamestown has one OF the best high
schools of the parish with an enroll
ment of us pupils, has one OF the
model roads our parish has recently
built. We have four mercantile estab-
lishments doing a combined business
of approximately $l5,0O00O per month.
Jamestown can also boast of one OF
the most up-to-date gin systems of
the parish, which is being patronized
for a radius of IS miles. We have
three cotton buyers, some OF which
paid as high as &c for middling cot
ton during part of the week ending
October 18th. We also have two
barbershops, one meat market and
restaurant. We have quite few new
homes with others under construction.
Also two churches now under con-
| struction. We have closed a deal by
which we are going to have a
100000 business and a bank in the
near future. In fact we have too
many good things to try to enumerate
them ALL The thing to do is to come
to jamestown and get the full value OF
your dollar, and feel good with us.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
PASTE
BY Howard b. CARTS


"Uncle Wiggily! Uncle Wiggily!
called Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy one
day, as the muskrat lady house
keeper was leaving the hollow
stump bungalow. I'm going,
Uncle Wiggily"
"Eh! Oh, what's that" asked
the bunny gentleman, suddenly,
awaking from his nap. He had
gone to sleep in the easy chair while
reading a book about icicles that
Mr.. Whitewash, the polar bear gen.
leman, had loaned him.
II said l was gong our-down to
the eight-and- inherent store to
buy a gold egg-beater," went on
Miss Fuzzy wuzz II see you have
fallen asleep over your book. l
didn't want to go out while you
were mapping, for If you awakened
you might wonder where l was"
Yes" agreed Uncle Wiggily, 81
might. But toddle on, Nurse Jane,
I'll be all right while you're gone,
though, of course, Ill miss you.
I'm not going out after adventures
today. j have a little cold. so I'll
stay in the bungalow. l must fin
ish this book"
Nurse Jane went out, md Uncle
Wiggily tried to read again. But
the book about icicles was rather
dry-not much of story in it-and
before the bunny knew he was
asleep again.
Uncle Wiggily began to dream
that he was being chased by the
