AS will be seen by reference
to the list printed elsewhere in
this paper only few teachers
from ST. Martin and Iberia have
taken advantage of the oppor-
tunity to. attend the summer
school being held here. AS the
schools in Vermilion close today
it is hoped that the representa-
tion from that parish will be in
creased. AS the authorities of
Iberia have not appropriated any
funds to defray the expenses of
teachers the small attendance
from the parish is readily under
stood, but in view of the fact
that the ST. Martin Board de-
cided to pay their expenses it is
surprising that so few teachers
from that parish dre attending
the school. By the earnest CO.
operation of the parishes com
posing the association these an
nual summer schools and chau-
tauquas would soon WELD
powerful influence in the i'm
prOvement of the educational
system of this section.

iards came to Mexico, an Indian of
that country foretold that bearded
men from the east would teach his
people the true religion under the
symbol of the cross. But why
would he have been likely to say
this, unless in preceding centuries
white men had actually crossed
the sea
When the natives of America be.
came known to the Europeans, they
were acquainted with the cross and
held to belief in Immortality.
May not this mysterious figure be
christian relic and not properly
an idol at all ? The animal held in
the arms could as well be intended
for a lamb as anything else.
For some years it has been ad
mitted that the Scandinavian sea
rovers visited the American coast
and even established temporary
town called Norumbaga near Bos-
ton. But Irish scholars claim that
missionaries from their Island Wis
tied America 1900 years ago. This
is not by any means an impossible
claim, and it would go far to ex-
plain those traces of christians
which were noticed by the late
voyagers.

SKUNKED.

Hereafter the persons OF skunks
in Ohio county shall be sacred as
cats in Egypt or dogs in Constant
nople. The county board of Com
missioners has so decreed it. Most
folks think that skunk is eminently
able to preserve itself from intru-
sion, but the State Legislature at the
last session enacted law to assist
the handsome animal with the en-
phatic odor. According to this law,
whenever the voters of county sign
petition to the number of 200,
and present it to the County Court,
that body shall enforce the law
which prohibits the killing of Mr..
Skunk alias Polecat. A petition
praying for the preservation of the
lives of skunks, signed by 26s free
born voters of Ohio county was pre-
sented to the commissioners who
were thereupon compelled to de-
clare the law effective. Hereafter
1t any person wants to go skunk
hunting he will have to seek the
game in Pennsylvania or Ohio. The
penalty for destroying skunks is S.
TO Sac, and no rebate allowed for
your clothes.
Farmers say the skunk is more
sinned against than SHINING, and
that so long as you leave him alone,
he is very useful animal. He eats
grubs and worms which destroy
crops and does little harm to poultry.
One good, able bodied skunk of
mature age and sound judgment, is
said to be of more value around a
farm than ton of insect destroyer.
There has been some talk of petit
tioning the County Court of Preston
county to pass an order making the
law effective in this county. AS it
only takes 400 votes on petition to
compel the Court to enforce the
law it would be easy enough to get
that many, if any friend of the Pole
cat would go after them.

LOOK our FOR Locusrs.

Prof. A. ID. Hopkins, the entom-
alogist at the West Virginia station
at Morgantown, has sent circulars
to the Eastern Panhandle warning
the fruit growers of this section OF
the 1909 swarm Of the periodical
cicada or seventeen year locust.
The circular says: The 1909
swarm of the periodical cIcada will
appear next spring during the lat.
ter part of May and the first of June
over all or the greater part of the
counties of Jefferson, Berkeley, Nor
gan, Hampshire and Mineral ;
the northern and eastern half OF
Hardy and northeastern end OF
Grant 1t may occur also in Pres
ton, Pendleton, Pocahontas. Green
brier, Monroe, and Mercer, espcc-
tally along the eastern border and
in Putnam, Mason, Cabell, Wayne
and Logan along the western and
southern borders. 1t may also &C.
cur in some other section of the
State.
The brood is of special impor
lance, from the fact that it covers
the greatest and most promising
fruit section of the State, and that
its swarms are said to be unusually
dense an destructive. Therefore il
is important for fruit growers to re-
member that all trees planted be-
tween September, 1900, and June,
1902 may be seriously damaged OF
destroyed, especially when planted
in fields that were in forests or or
chard in 1885. The fall of 1902
and the spring of 1903 will be the
time to make extensive paintings OF
fruit and other trees in all the area
occupied by the destructive brood.

CAUSES OF CANCER.

Don't eat too much salt or too
much meat. According to DR..
James Braithwaite, of London, an
emminent cancer specialist and au-
thority, these are among the princi-
pal causes of cancer. In a lecture
the other day he said !:
The excess of salt in the diet is
one of four factors which originate
the disease. This is the essential
factor, but it is imperative without
at least one, and probably two of
the others. Excess of salt NAV
arise from individual taste, or from
much salt meat, or from too much
ordinary meat, which, of course, in
wolves much salt. The other fac
tors are these
An over-nourished condition of
body from more food, and espec
ially more meat, than is required.
This condition is rarely met with
amoag out-of- door manual workers.
An impure condition of body ow
ing to non-use and non oxidation oil
the food which has been taken. The
amount may have been moderate,
or even small. The cells of the
body in this condition are loaded
with effete material. 1t obtains
in old age, in persons who lead
indolent, easy, and indoor lives
and locally in organs the active func.
tions of which have ceased.
A fourth factor is some local irri.
tant or stimulant, such as friction
from the stem of a pipe or irritation
from some micro organism
In other words unless you pursue
active outdoor life don't overfeed,
don't over dose with with salt the
food you do eat.

A German paper tells the story of
German officer no, in command
of some Beers, managed to surprise
British train at some small way
side station. There was some ex-
cellent whiskey on board, and the
Beers soon sampled it, with the re-
suit that the good British spirit did
Its duty by laying them out fast
asleep on the platform. Here they
we're found and captured by some
English troops, who, in their turn,
took little from the half empty
cask, with the result that acting on
half starved men, the whistey sent
them to sleep in their turn When
the Beers woke up they recsptured
their captors, and thus in a few
hours there was one British victory
and two Boer victories added TO the
record.
