The spread was served at the hospi
table Tobias home in Claiborne
street, and needless to add it was
a sumptuous one and was greatly en
joyed by all whose good fortune it
was to assemble around the festive
board. The continued health, happi
ness and prosperity of the popular
host of the occasion was repeatedly
pledged in befitting beverages, and
the exchange of felicitous expres
sions and good wishes between em
ployer and employees constituted a
particularly interesting and pleasant
feature of the delightful affair.
Drainage Systems to Combine.
The board of commissioners of the
Bayou Conway Drainage District held
a meeting Wednesday at Darrow,
the domicile of the organization, to
receive the final report of Engineer
C. S. `McFarland, embodying plans
for th dffrainage broject cdntemttis
ed in the district. Action on the
report was deferred, pending the
outcome of negotiations for a con
solidation of the Bayou Conway and
New River Drainage Districts in
the carrying on of a certain part of
the work proposed in the lower sec
tion of the former district, where it
adjoins the New River district. By
combining forces in dredging opera
tions at this point, a substantial fi
nancial saving can be effected, and
the drainage systems of both dis
tricts materially enhanced.
