The Joint meeting Of parents arl

Auditorium last Monday afternoon,

the Importance of the organization
they hoped to form on that occasion.
However, there were enough en-

a Parent Teacher Association which

a meeting that is scheduled for next
Monday, November 27, at 4:05 P.

1t would be impossible to attach
too much Importance to this matter.
1t is hoped that each parent, and
friend of the school, will take this
invitation seriously and be on hand
to do a just share of the great work
in view.

Another name has been added to
the list of casualties from automo-
bile accidents near New Iberia.
Friday morning, at about o'clock,
a little girl about four years Of age,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Gabriel
Landry, was struck and almost in
stantly killed by passing car, in
front of the store at Bob Acres.
At this hour of going to press
few details Of the accident are av-
ailable.
According to information obtained
at the Sheriff's Office from Deputy
Bonin it is thought that the little
child had just left the store and was
coming out on the road when the
automobile hit her.
The car, a Ford, with all side cur
tains on, was passed near the place
of the accident by the driver Of the
Abbeville Transfer. A car of SINH
lar description had stopped for gas
oline at the Joe Davis garage at
about seven o'clock, and then head
ed on down Main Street. The occu-
pant was shoe drummer, the car
being driven by a light mulatto boy.
This is the only clue, and may not
lead to anything Of value in the So
luton of the question as to who was
the driver of the death car.
It is unthinkaAe that the driver
even saw the child or knows that he
hit her, for the car continued on its
way without hesitating. The car be-

SIDEWALK CASE is
FINALLY SETTLED.
Trustees Promise Early
Renewal of Work.

The famous sidewalk case has fin
ally been settled.
Honorable James A. Simon, Of the
District Court, handed down his de
'cision Monday forenoon, in favor Of
he defendant by sustaining the eX-
cepton Of their attorney, thus set
Ting the long agitated question and
leaving the way clear for unhamp-
cred construction Of the walks by
the Commission Council.
Everybody agrees that it has been
hard on the property holders along
the lines of the projected walks to
have to pay special assessments for
walks when no one knew when the
walks would be completed. The ty-
ing up of the matter in the courts
was an added burden and delay
1t seems that the sky has cleared
now, and that everything will be
"sittin' pretty" as far as our cement
walks are concerned
The Board of Commissioners have
started and ha7e we'll under way the
issuance of $50,000 in certificates to
pay for plant improvements and take
care of the sidewalk proposition.
The General Fund will return from
this $4,000 proceeds of these certi-
Gates the amount it borrowed from
the Special Side Walk Fund, and
work on the walks will be started
without further delay.
In a notice mailed to all taxpay-
ers with their bills for taxes, Com
missioner Broussard says:
"To those of you that are paying
for Sidewalk, | wish to call your at
tention to the last proceedings of
the Commission Council and you will
notice we are doing our best to give
you your Sidewalk, and it is only a
question of short time when work
will resume on same. But we ask
that you make the last payment, so
we can meet the last set Of bonds
that falls due January 1st, 1928"

VICTORY FOR PEOPLE
IN PHONE CASE,
Cumberland Plans More
Delay Proceedings.

The people of Louisiana won a
big victory over the Telephone Trust
this week when the Federal Courts
dissolved the injunction which was
granted by Judge Foster year OF
more ago.
1t will be remembered that right
/ after Francis Williams was elected
to fill the vacancy on the Public
Service Board that Board ordered q
reduction in all phone rates, putting
them back to the original basis pend
ing trial of the question on its
merits.
IAN injunction was then granted
the Cumberland Company that has
prevented the proposed reduction.
According to Mr.. Williams, the
order for a cut in rates will now be
put into effect and hold good until 3
final disposition of the matter is
made
May Get A Refund.
1t is also held by several authori-
ties that the excess charges collect
ed by the Cumberland Telephone
Company since the increase was sus-
tanned must now be returned to the
subscribers of the thousands of tele-
phones in use in Louisiana.
The Telephone Company officers,
however, are seeking to prevent this
by further resort to the courts. Just
what success they will meet with is
yet undecided.
The average telephone subscriber
has now paid approximately SIS to
500 in excess charges.
The Company wants to hold this
money until the case is settled, then
returning it if forced by the courts.
Who Loses The Interest?
This procedure looks innocent
enough at first glance, and on each
little $18.
But considering the total for fifty
thousand phones at that average
figure it will be seen that the Cum
berland is seeking to force a loan OF
around one million dollars from the
citizens of this State.
The interest on this amount totals
eighty thousand dollars a year.
If the case is decided against the
Company and orders a permanent
reduction in rates and a refund Of
the excess collected, will the tele-
phone company pay the individual
phone users this SS0,000 interest for
the use of their money? Or will
they use our own money to fight US
in the courts, making the public fur
nish, the money to pay their lawyers,
court fees and salary of expert wit
nesses?
In considering the refund of the
extra telephone rates the people have
been paying the courts may not, but
should, take this into consideration.

make the lamp stand on it: Take

on the long edge and place two
more dominoes over the top of the
others to cover them. Cut out a
colored stand spread of paper and
cut a slit in the center just large
enough for the base Of the lamp to
slip through, then slip it between
the two dominoes that cover the
standing ones. This works well.
