At this meeting tc day Trustee of Finance Girard states that a motion accepting Mr. Viller- min’s resignation as read in the min- utes of July 2fith was not made by him, that he never offered a motion to accept the said resignation and re- quests then and there the correction, f and the erasing of that said por- tion of these minutes before signing. On motion of Mr. Girard, seconded by Mr, Villermin, the minutes as cor- rected were ordered signed. Mr. E. Vuillemot. as attorney for Mr. John Angers appeared before the Board to ascertain whether or not the election called for Sept. 2nd to elect a Commissioner of Trustee of Public Property shall be held, and to ascertain «whether or not if the re- signation of Trustee Villermin had been accepted, and to ascertain the authority if the resignation of L. F. Villermin had been accepted has the said L. F. Villermin been acting as a Commissioner of Public Property. The following opinion by City At- torney L. O. Hacker was ordered spread on the minutes by Mr. Viller- min : To the Honorable the Mayor and Board of Trustees of the City of New Iberia, La. Gentlemen:— In reply to yours of the 17th in- stant soliciting an opinion on the legality of the proceedings had by your Board, concerning the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. L. F. Villermin, as Commissioner of Public Property, I beg leave to sub- mit to you the following opinion. The provisions of your Charter which is Act 187 of 1910, Article (48") provides that if a vacancy should occur in the office of any such Trustee, save by recall, , the Board shall appoint an eligible person to fill such vacancy pending an election to fill such vacancy for the unexpir- ed term. Said election shall be held in not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty days from the date of snid vacancy. A vacancy shall exist when an elected officer failed to qualify for thirty days after notice of his elec- tion dies, resigns, removes from the City, absents himself continuously therefrom for two months, is con- victed of a felony, judiciously de- clared a lunatic or fails to furnish bond as herein provided. Article 48 provides the manner of filling that vacancy, that is by ap- pointment of an eligible person to fill the office until an election might be held, and that said election cannot be held before the lapse of thirty days, and not later than sixty days from the date of said vacancy, in the present case the election is order- ed for Sept. 2nd, 1920, which would be less than the thirty clear days, and is therefore a nullity. Article 10 of your Charter, which controls all elections of members of this Board, prescribes the manner of holding said election and says: "The Board of Trustees shall Issue a call for election of said members, ami publish said call in the Official Jour- nal of the City fixing the date on which persons desiring to become candidates shall file their applications (which date herein shall not be less than thirty days prior nor more than forty days to the election) and the location of the polling places. I find that none of the provisions of this article have been complied with in your resolutions, and an election held under said call would be illegal, null and void. The delays prescribed In this Arti- cle and those in the previously quot- ed are positive and sacramental, it can be neither more nor less, it is not left to the discretion of the gov- erning authorities. Respectfully submitted, L. O. Hacker, City Attorney. On motion of Mr. Villermin, sec- onded by Mr. Girard, and adopted unanimously: Be it resolved, that Mayor H. S. Sealy be authorized to compel the connection of all premises to the Sewer System of the City in confor- mity with requirements of the Louis- iana State Board of Health, and to take the following streets first due to pavement and improvements, Main Street, Duperier Ave., Iberia Street, Center Street Railroad Ave., and St Peter St. Resolution No. 233. The following resolution was offer- ed by Mr. Girard, seconded by Mr. Villermin, and adopte«! unanimously: Be it resolved by the Board of Trustee« of the City of New Iberia, that a note be signed by Mayor Sea- ly to the New Iberia Foundry and Machine Shop in the amount of $316. 65 for a period of four months bear- ing interest at the rate of eight per spur or track at a point between th«* property of the Iberia Cypress Co., Ltd., and the property of the Chns. Bolt Paper Milling Co., with spur track as designated, more especially to serve an industry or in- dustries that might be located on con- tiguous property or properties. Section 2. Be it further ordained, that this ordinance take effect from the date of its passage, thirty days publication hereof having been given conformably to Section 10 of the Charter of the City of New Iberia, Thus, done passed and signed, with the seal of the City of New Iberia af- fixed thereto on this — day of Sept. 1920. Signed H. S. S«“aly, Mayor. On motion of Mr. Sealy, seconded by Mr. Girard, and adopted unani- mously, the sum of $5.00 was order- I refunded to Mr. Joe Gibson for Sewer connection from Main to Curb as the said connection was installed at his own expense. On motion of Mr. Sealy, seconded by Mr. Villermin, and adopted unani- mously, the six inch Water Main was ordered extended on East Main street from th«> present terminus to a point about 900 feet east thereof, placing a fire Hydrant at the end, and a six inch T. at the Chas. Bolt Paper Mill Co. site.

Mrs. Gab Landry. 9 25 On the badge of every member of the Junior Red Cross are the words “I Serve.’’ That tells the story of the school children’s branch of the Ameri- can Red Cross and Its efforts to bring hupplness to children throughout the world Realizing that the time never was so propitious as right now for tea«:h- Ing the highest Ideals of citizenship, the entire present program of the Jun lor Red Cross has been framed under the very Inclusive phrase, "Training for Citizenship Through Service’’ for others. Since the Junior Red Cross Is the agency through which the Amerl can Red Cross reaches the schoolboys and the schoolgirls, all Its activities are designed to come within the regu lar school program, and without creat- ing new courses or Increasing the num- ber of studies to lend Its aid In vttaliz Ing the work of the schools. "The thing that is needed," says Dr. Livingston Farrand, Chairman °f American Red Cross Central Commit- tee, “Is not a perpetuation of the Jun lor Red Cross, but the training and breeding of sound American citizenship Inspired by the true, fundamental Ideals of sound democracy. One of the great conceptions In making the Red Cross a contributor to better citizen ship In our American democracy is the realization that after all the sole hope of any nation Is with the children of the country.” The plan of organization of the Jon lor Red Cross makes the school—pub lie, parochial and private—the unit, not the Individual pupils. Mutual serv- ice, helpful community work such as clean-up campaigns, care of the sick, promotion of health regulations, par tlclpatlon In civic and patriotic move ment»—all these creative agencies de slgaed to translate Into life and action the regular school program are parts of the machinery which the Junior Red Cross places at the disposal of the school authorities. Graded study courses giving prac- tical methods of civic training, supple- mented by pamphlets and helpful sug gestions, are supplied to the local schools by the Junior Red Cross. An elaborate plan for promoting i - Inter change of correspondence between chll dren tn different sections of the United States as well as with «Children In for- eign lands Is being devised and will take a prominent place In the estab- lished classroom program. In promoting the general cause of child welfare, Red Cross courses In home hygiene and care of the sick, first aid, and dieting may be estab- lished in all Juulor Red Cross Aux- iliaries. The Ideals and the objective of the Junior Red Cross are embodied in the pledge of service which the pupil takes when he signs the membership roll and pins on bis coat the Junior’s badge The pledge which binds together serv ice and dtlxenshlp reads : “We will seek in all ways te Rye np to the Ideals of the Junior Red Cross and devote ourselves to Its service. "We will strive never to bring dis- credit to this, our country, by any un worthy act "We will revere and obey our cwun try’s laws and do our best to Inspire a tike reverence and obedience in those «beat us. “We will endeavor In all these ways, as good citizens, to transmit America greater, better and more beautiful than she was transmitted to us."

Interesting Experience of a Texas Lady Who Declares That if More Women Knew About Cardui They Would Be Spared Much Sickness and Worry. Navasota, Texas.—Mrs. W. M. 1’cden, of this place, relates the following interest- ing account of how she recovered her strength, having realized that she was actually losing her health: "Health is the greatest thing in the world, and when you feci that gradually slipping away from you, you certainly sit up and take notice. That is what I did some time ago when I found myself in a very nervous, run-down condition of health. I was so tired and felt so lifeless I could hardly go at all. "I was just no account for work. I would get a bucket of water and would feel so weak I would have to set it down before* I felt like I could lift it to the shelf. In this condition, of course, to do even my housework was a task almost im- possible to accomplish. "I was . . • nervous and easily upset. I couldn’t rest well at night and was . . , just lifeless. "I heard of Cardui and after reading I decided 1 had some female trouble that was pulling me down. I sent for Cardui and began it. . . "In a very short while after I began the Cardui Home Treatment I saw an im- provement and it wasn’t long until 1 was all right—good appetite, splendid rest, and much stronger so that I easily did my house work. "Later 1 took a bottle of Cardui as l tonic, lean recommend Cardui and glad- ly do so, for if more women knew, H would save a great deal of worry and sickness." The enthusiastic praise ot thousands o! other women who have found Cardui helpful should convince you that it il worth trying. All druggists sell it Is ™ TAKEN UP.
