St. Patrick’s day was observed here only by the wearing of the green by the lovai sons of old Erin.

The tornado that was so distruc- trous at Provencal did a great dam- age at the l ’otts place just a few

I miles below town. The gin, stables,: and other out houses were blown, down, several cabins destroyed and some stock injured, the damages amount ing to tSCOO at least.

Foster, the weather forecast still in­sists thet we will have more dangerous storms before the month of March en­tirely wanes, due to the position of the great planet Jupiter and advises that no risk on weather events be taken with a few days of the 26th. He does not base his forecast on the equinoctial storm idea, though he say the equinoxes are favorable to severe storms particu­larly when the moon and planets ar e in positions favorable to severe weather

The very crowded condition of the historic old American graveyard is get­ting to be most distressing and a move­ment has been started to petition the city authorities not to grant any new burial permits to white or colored peo­ple, and only allow those famiiies who already have lots, to continue using them for this sacred puppose.

A beautiful lot has been .donated for a cemetery just back of the French cemetery and if fenced in would make an ideal place, as nature has done much to beautify it and with a little atten­tion it could be dedicated ’as an annex for both the American and French graveyards.

Lescbe had not only a very interest­ing meeting on Monday night but a great deal of important business was disposed of to the general satisfaction of the members in attendance. Mrs. Porter and Miss Newell were appointed delegates to the State Federation that will meet in Shreveport next month with Mmes. Phillips and Maccomb al­ternates.

The lesson was conducted by Miss Nelken most interestingly who told the story of tha play “The Joy of Living,” Hermann Suderman was the subject of a paper written by Mrs. d. J. Henry while Mrs. Porter compared the Char­acters of Beata and Magda and a gen­eral discussion was participated in by the members.
