Colliar&, Opelousas, La. dec 4 tf SUSIE TICKMIRE REPLIES Grand Coteau, La., Jan. 2, 1921. Dear Clarion: I have just read the attempt at criti- 1 cism and sarcasm in your paper by 'An Ingrate," and while I did not in tend to again impose on you, I feel t you will allow me just space enough 'to make things clear to my dear Cou lee Croche friend, and I would not so far fall in etiquette as not to answer when my friend asks, me to please - give some reply, 'tis always a pleas ure to me do so and especially when it is in self defence. *When I left home on that memor able 'Sunday afternoon with my "fliv ver," or "Tin Jimmy," as 'they choose to term my car, it was in first class running order. Now my dear ingrate, I flatter myself to say that my Eng lish is as good as yours and perhaps a little superior under test. I don't however, boast that my "parley vous" could compare with yours. I observe the learned Coulee Cro che correspondent if he or she will look over the "attempt," will find In grate has fallen down on and as well as composition, but this article is not written with the intention to belittle my friend for I know the attempt is an awful effort, having taken two: weeks to frame it and I presume most of that time was taken up in looking up the learned of Coulee Croche for such actions and assistance. My case may be one of mental itch, but, i thanks, not one of mental depression or of unsophisicated conceit or gall. I may have arrived at Coulee Croche on the rim, but my family heirloom was in good condition until I reached the Coulee Croche roads. I have this to say, I can distance any Creole pony Coulee 'Croche has, or ever did have, on any other roads but the Coulee Croche roads. If my good Coulee Creche friend can call this a want a lengthy ",mass of bad Eng lish worse diction or rhetorical as sinity in an iattempt to explain," how ever. Perhaps had I used stronger lan guage than "bad fix" it might have been more easily understood by my Sself-styled "learned friend." Mr. Savoy's was kind enough to bring us home and thereby relieve a weary embaressing situation, and I am sure if my mental pus cavity was tapped there would be found more solid grey matter than would be found present in that of ay much loved Co1 lee Crohe correspondent. I wonder if the "good people of Coulee Croche would" gasp with hor ror" at any. situation one would be found in? r leave the situation in which we were placed to any reason able person and if they will not agree that "Sorry but I can do nothing for you" said out in the cold and rain at 12 o'clock at night is not very dis-.1 couraging and especially- when v-'n have a right to expect more civil 2nd 1 friendly treatment. 1 Li We could not expect or hope for i reception by a bnass band, out ih 3 Coulee Croche. Had we been foolish enough to surmise or hope for any thnig like a musical reception we would have looked for an harmonica, Jews' Harp and accordeon band. We were not expecting any such welcome and much less did we expect the send. off we got after our efforts to' be pleasing and accomodating. Had an ounce of gray matter been added to my. thousand tongues. I guess I should never have gotten into the "bd fix" nor have had to suffer the waste of time which we did, for we would have kept away from there even if I am kind hearted and char itably inclined. Now, it is a shame for you, "In grate," to belittle my "tin flivver," for when we did se'k a.si-t-nce .4- vere more "flat tires" nd "a w.o outs" among the Coulee Troche w,. than I ever heard of or thought could exist in such a small community of good God loving people. No, "Ingrate," we will always be glad to help you out, but had rather do so by subscription than by per sonal attendance, unless ." ~ ant in an ox cart, for your roads $ie W hard on "flivvers." Now, "Ingrate," don't write any more for it brings back memories we don't like to have come-'t-his has been almost forgotten and this is my last. With best wishes and no per sonal hard feeling.
