Armistice Day
Everything is set for the big
Armistice Day celebration and
it now remains to be seen just
how successful the undertaking
will be. The American Legion
has requested us to announce
that the big parade will form in
front of the St. Peter's College
on lower Main Street at 2:30
P. M. sharp and will begin mov
ing at three o'clock. All own
ers of automobiles and trucks
are again cordially invited to
participate and are especially
urged to decorate. Immediately
after the Legion "Dutch Lunch"
and smoker. The dance will
be held in Elks Home at eight
o'clock. Any Legionnaire from
out of town who happens to be
in New Iberia on that night, is
cordially invited to attend this
snrofcer in the Armory.
The manager of the Elks
Theatre, Mr. Julius Scharff, has
been good enough to donate
the proceeds of the picture show
to the Legion on that day and
will present Tom Moore in
"Officer 666." This is an ex
ceptionally good picture and
one which will be sure to please.
Harold Lloyd will also appear in
one of his side splitting come
dies and will no doubt please
the movie fans. Candy and
cakes will be sold in the lobby
of the Theatre during the after
noon by the ladi< s of the Auxil
iary of The Legion.
As announced in a previous
issue, the celebration will be
ushered in by the whistles and
bells at 11 A. M., the actual time
>f the signing of the armistice.
The band concert and speak
ing is scheduled to take place on
the Court House square imme
diately after the parade. At 4
P. M. the N. H. S. foot-ball team
will meet the St. Martinville ag
gregation on the High School
field and this promises to be a
good game.

A PROVIDENCE OF NATURE
The cause we so loyally love
is a device of nature, A Provi
dence of Nature, A Natural Rev
enue, and is neither a tax nor is
it in the form of a tax, as is
shown by Eben Stillman
Doubleday in The Review of
Reviews for the months of July
and August. He thinks that
such a name as Single Tax has
much impeded our progress. He
well says that the misuse of
words and phrases befogs the
minds of men, and inevitably
leads to misconceptions Ih'at
make most of the troubles in
the world of mankind.
This Natural Revenue is not
acquired by criminal deeds, nor
by the methods of a criminal.
Right needs no hiding place.
Wrong is not the right name
Because of age and usage. If
the empty symbol has dis
placed the principle it is sup
posed to stand for—to abandon
the symbol and elevate the
principle—would be the right
course for us to pursue, would
it not? Tax and taxation are
the most justly d pisrd words
in our language, and the name
has been most unfortunate in
impeding the progress of our
great reform. No man i»
modern times has served our
cause as Henry George did, but
Father Nulty of Ireland who un
beknown to Henry George res
urected the same great econom
ical truths only two years later
gave his little book of 61 pages
a better and more fascinating
title, "Back To The Land." He
did not cover the ground so
thoroughly and well, nor warn
us as did Henry George of the
Impending Ruin that would re
sult in an endeavor to uphold
private property in land. You
see that conditions as depicted
by Henry George are daily
growing more exasperating the
selling of men into slavery as
was done in Boston a few days
since, and ten thousand othev
atroclties too numerous to men
tion are of daily occurrence. If
we want to enforce a protective
tariff we must soon as Henry
George suggests endeavor to
roof our country in.
