LESSON OF THE CARNIVAL.
The Red Men's Midwinter Carnival
has passed Into history. The Carni-
val company have folded their tents
and gone on to Crowley, from thence
Eastward and eviSntually to Ihe'North-
ern States and Canada. The good
people of Orange are Interested In no
small measure In the future travels
of Messrs. Talbott and Whitney and
their aggregation of amusement fur-
niBhers
For years Orange has unjustly
labored'under the1® disadvantages of
behigKnown among the show people
as a "tough town." From things which
develop during the stay of the Tal-
foott-Whltney company here our neigh-
bor on the west has been particularly
energetic in fostering the belief among
show people and others that Orange
was a Rood town to stay away from.!

That life's grind
Without much thanks,
You'll alway find
s* Where there are cranks.
While in
week (Afferent members of the com-
pany were told by Beaumonters that
If they came to Orange they might, get
away from the town with their lives,
bat their tents would be cut and the
animals killed or stolen, their women
insulted and their men maltreated. It
is not har<' *o imagine what kind of
feelings were engendered in the hearts
of these people against Orange. They
«ame here confidently expecting to be
abused and robbed and were so pleas-
This is proof positive that your peopl
are amusement lovers and only need a
good theatre ancf a few tent shows
during the summer season, with a
good harvest carnival in the fall, to
hold every dollar which istould be
spent for amusements right in your
Sour Lake during Christmas 1 own town. Orange is a good town,
financially, and morally, and I shall
make it my business and deem It a
pleasure in the future to teli my
friends in the show business how high-
ly I appreciative many courtesies
and kindnesses heaped upon me and
my people during our Htay in your
midst. As to the town being tough,
that's utter rot. Why so far as I know
there has not ben a fight of even
small proportions during the week
and we have all been pleasantly dis-
antly surprised by their treatment at appointed by the utter absence of any
the hands of the people of Orange 1 shooting, which we were told we would
they will go to all parts of the .country
and tell all whom they meet that Or-
ange is a peaceable, law abiding town,
where the people patronize an amuse-
ment company liberally and treat the
stranger within the city's gates with
,a courtesy unknown in some of the
townB which traduce her.
Another lesson which the Carnival
has taught 1b: Orange money wllf be
just as cheerfully spent in Orange as
in Beaumont or any other town, pro-
the people at Orange are fur-
nished with amusements of the right
We can have Carnivals and
theatrical attractions at home and
save the city thousands of dollars an-
nually. Bo long as they are not held
In Orange her people *111 go away
from home to spend their money.
In speaking of hie engagement in
Orange Mr. Whitney said: "One thing
which Impressed me was the evidences
of wealth and refinement on all sides
to your beautiful little city. Another
thing was the eagerness with which
your people crowded to our different
tents for the first performance. This
thing seldom occurs, even where a
Carnival has been extensively adver-
tised. One waits for the other to go
and depends upon the verdict of the
first as to whether or not he shall
'attend. This was not the case in Or-
ange. The people flocked to our at-
BjPjtractlons for the opening shows and
to do so during the week.
be sure to hear and maybe feel."
But the great lesson w^feh the Car-
nival has taught Is that IOb Absolute-
ly essential that the petople—all the
people—need a season of play Jusi as
much as do the children. Such a sea-
son as last week's carnival, with Its
confetti battles, horn- blowing, shout-
ing. singing and general merriment,
relaxes the general tension of human-
ity's nerves, brings all the people to-
gether on one common level and works
to the general good of the community.
When prince and pauper, peer and
poet, millionaire and mondicant meet
together on Carnival occasions class
distinctions are forgotten and every-
one feels a kindly, genial glow about
their heart strings which can only
have a beneficial result. Play is the
natural recompense of work and to
play for a brief season Is both bene-
ficial and natural and "one touch of
nature makes the whole world akin."
Aside from the financial benefits
whfch the Carnival conferred upon the
Red Men and Ladles' Civic club it haa
impressed upon the minds of 140
traveling people the absolute fact that
Orange is a clean, moral and. well con-
ducted town and her people the peers
of any on earth. These
will scatter to the fou>' corders of the
country and each one avHI constitute
himself or herself a missionary to tell
good things about the fkte City of
Texas. The great good to come from
this source alone is Incalculable and
far reaching In It* effect upoo the fu-
ture of the town.
The Carnival is over. Now let us
all get down to the stern realities of
life and each resolve to put forth his
or her very best efforts during the com
lng year to make of Orange a brighter,
better, more prosperous and larger
town than ever before In her history.
The season of play has toned each of
us up and It behooves each citizen to
show the beneficial effects of the
tonic by renewed efforts toward the
betterment of the town which we all
fove and wish to make better.
