If a man has anything he is proud of, he gives it a name whether it be a baby or a pair of boots. And the more he is proud of it, the more he talks about it.

Nameless things are seldom good and never reliable. If you want to cut down your cost of living the very best way to do i t is to learn to ask only for standard articles.

When you know the name of a good maker of shirts or shoes, of furniture or pianos, of hardware or underwear, fix that name

to be appointed, they are subordi- nate in authority to the Police Jury,

A representative of the Review •iked a member of the St. Mary Road Commission for an expression of opinion as to this legislation and obtained the following:

The law originally permitted the Police Jury of each Parish on its own initiative or acting upon the petition of property holders to create or sub-divide the parish into road districts, of which the Police Jury was the governing body. The .object being to permit local taxation on the vote of local property holders but concentrating the expenditure of monies under the supervision of the Police Jury, to ensure uniform­ity of parochial work and concen-

t tration of purchasing power and economy in expenditure. This law worked very satisfactorily in most Perishes. In S t Mary a division of opinion arose as to the location of the model road in the 6th ward, and due to the demand of some of the citizens of that ward, the 1Ô16 Legislature, pasted a new road law which gave the right to local proper­ty holders to form themselves into road districts and substituted as ffceir governing authority local po- Jlet jurors, local members of the reboot board and one citizen ap­pointed by the Police Jury, making this Board independent after its or­ganisation of the Police Jury.

This law has not worked suffi­ciently satisfactory anywhere, to overcome serious financial objection which has arisen throughout the State. It wae repealed as a general necessity and not for any political or sectional reason.

The bonds of these boards, acting independently of the governing au­thority of the Police Jury, would not bring par in the bond markets of the U. 8.

St. Mary men are real men. The draft examination at Franklin Sat­urday found 107 men out of 134 who are physically fit for service. Of course, it may develop that they will be exempted for causes that have nothing to do with their physi­cal fitness bat the preliminary ex­amination has shown that the ability to fight is there and that if it is backed up by a willingness to fight St. Mary will have the honor of sending forth her full quota of fine fighting men and the first call will still be far from exhausted.

The sugar cane growers shook hands with themselves over the crops and prices of 1916. Now, it appears that 1917 is going to be better still in both crops and prices. One thing which local history bears out—if the sugar growers prosper, every one prospers. There may be a few ex­ceptions, but for the most part the planters of St. Mary are progressive and put their money into circulation as fast as they acquire it. This may be said for a certainty of the plant­ers in the west end of the parish.

Nervous ladies and children are assured that there will be no cause for hysteria if the streets of Morgan City soon become, the play­ground for apes and other jungle denizens. If certain bibulous gents may also see sights which incline them to sign the pledge, well and good. But the fact will remain that the Darwin’s evidence will be noth' ing more harmful than the charac­ters of the motion picture now be­ing produced here by the National Film Company, “Tarzan of the Apes.” *

Do not allow strange things to come into your home any more than you would allow strange people.

The brand and the trade-mark and the copyright are the let­ters of introduction from the maker to you. In this way he vouches for their respectability and guarantees their good be­havior in your home.

There is a name for every good product that is made. And most of these names atie known to every man and woman in America. Manufacturers have spent hundreds of millions of dol­lars to standardize these names in your mind. From the lining of a dress to a laundry soap ; from a cleanser to a baking powder ; from a suit of clothes to a kit of tools ; you could call every stand­ard article on the market by name if you would only remember to do so when you conie to buy.

It is through your carelessness that lies and adulterations creep in. The standard is set by good men, but the standard is only maintained by you.

It is time for you to forget the generic name of every article, and remember only the standard name of its quality.

In the advertising news of this paper today yon will find many of these standard names and brands of quality. This article is written for the sole purpose of remainding you to use those names. It is only fair that you should do as much for these good manufacturers as they are doing for you. It is only right that you should help in this great standardization of good products that is going on throughout America.

Begin now to ask by name for everything you buy. And you will find your satisfaction growing greater day by day and yonr optimism extending even down to your pocketbook.
