Acadians Arrive In Louisiana

NEW OHLEABB. La., April ‘id.- History repeated itseiftoday as some 200 Acadians from the Maritime. Provinces of Canada arrived in Lou- isiana to participate in the dedicat- ion of monument to Evangeline on the banks of Bayou Techs. Like moat historical repetitions. there were variations. Unlike their ancestors, who fled Grand Pro more than e hundred years ago in slow sailing boats to seek respite from British invasion as exiles in South Louis- iana, these modern day visitors came into the city on two special trains and transferred to motor buses for the visit to their kinsmen in the Teche country. The Kirtle, wide Bertha, and full skirts worn by the women furnished the only visible reminder of that other Audion pil-

ates are not large enough to coni- plcte this work this year-
