and means of maintaining that
friendly and helpful relationship
between the home and the school

the mental and moral growth of
the child. and much good in the

edly result from her efforts in

SCOTT SCHOOL news.

Last Saturday afternoon there
was gathering of the patrons
of the Scott School to hear Miss
Agnes Morris, of the Depart
ment of Education, talk on the
subject Of cooperation between
parents and teachers.
In his introduction of Miss
Morris to the audience, Mr.. Leo
Judice spoke of the pride and in
terest of the people of Scott in
their public school, and he ven
tured the statement that it stood
second to no other school in the
parish in point of attendance and
efficiency.
Much interested was mani
tested in the recommendations of
Miss Morris for unity of purpos e
and action on the part of parents
and teachers for the up building
of their school. Miss Morris
spoke for nearly an hour in her
most entertaining style, and her
remarks met with the hearty ap
probation of Father Detchmendy
pastor Of the Catholic church at
Scot. who was an interested
listener.
Miss Morris was accom-
panied by Supt. Avery and DR..
Moss, president of the school
board. and their presence on
this occasion was appreciated by
the patrons of the school. Supt.
Avery invited all present
to attend the Teachers Institute
to be held in Lafayette Nov. 9 to
Is.
Scott has an efficient Improve.
ment League, organized about
one month ago. The officers of
the league are: Miss l.. Williams,
president; Mrs. Leo Judice, vice.

secretary; Miss Fannie Gramb-
ling, treasurer. The league in

INSTITUTE NOTES.
Basket Ball Game, Football Game
With st. MartinvilIe and
Avatar Society Program.

Last Thursday the Institute basket
ball players played a game on the
basket ball court before an interested
audience. The game was between two
teams, Reds and Blues, picked for the
occasion. The Reds won and the
proceeds were turned over to the foot
ball team.
Saturday the football team played
the st. Martinville High School. The
game was hard fought, for the swift
playing of st. Martinville made them
almost match for the Institute team
although it is a heavier team. For a
first game the Institute did very we'll,
indeed, and the close score of IL to 10
in its favor was not such as to make it
too over confident the next time.
Miss Agnes Morris, of the State De-
partment of Education, lectured at the
High School Friday afternoon and
the Institute was ably represented at
the lecture by DR.. E. L. Stephens. Mr..
and Mrs. Hulse, Misses Mulcahy and
Dana, and Prof. Swiggett.
The Avatar Society held their fort
night entertainment in the auditorium
Saturday night. The subject of the
usual debate was: Resolved, that
women be allowed to vote. The cake
was carried off by Mr.. Edward Put
nam who had the negative. The other
features were recitation, violin solo
and very fine drill. Great credit is
due the society for their very interest
ing program.

THE WILD WEST SHOW

Every department OF the l01 Ranch
Wild West Show which will be here
On Saturday, Nov. I, is under the di-
rect supervision of one or all of the
three Miller Brothers. The 1O1 brand
has always stood for superlative ex-
cellence and unblemished integrity,
and its owners are seeing to it that
the escutcheOn is not sullied in the
conduct of the big amusement organi-
cation which is touring the country.
The active responsibility of the
srenic performance is vested in Zack
(T. Miller. who is fitted by nature and
experience for the exacting require
ments of the position. Young Mr.
Miller is as picturesque a type of the
American cowboy as the west has
ever yielded. He is educated in the
books of the east, but stern and re.
lentless experience has schooled him
in the lessons of the prairie AT home
he has full charge of the live stock
feature of the ranch. Every horse and
every steer is in his charge. He buys
and sells and trades; but deals in car
loads and whole herds as the small
ranchman barters in single animals.
All the great southwest comedies that
Mr.. Miller has no rival as a quick
judge of the worth. age. condition,
weight or breed of a bovine or equine.
A small army of the crack cowboys
OF the country are enlisted on the
Miller Brothers list of employees, and
to attain and maintain their sure en-
during respect Mr.. Miller must needs
be their superior in all the spheres of
physical endeavor in their calling.
None is his equal with the rope, with
firearms or ahorse. Mr.. Miller will
subdue the most malevolent equine
outlaw whom others are afraid .even
to approach. No equine mood is say
age enough to daunt him, and once
lodged in saddle no twist or turn or
toppling of raging beast can unseat
him. His companions of the range and
roundup frequently stand awestruck
at his exploits of skill and daring.
He can toss the coil of his three strand
lariat with seemingly unerring and in
fallible accuracy. In gale, in rain or
in snow his moose falls swift and sure.
With rife, shotgun or pistol he is
among the famous shots of the
ranch, on galloping horse or un
Many trophies of his prowess adorn
the. 10l Ranch homes, for wild turkeys,
quail, wild ducks, Wild geese ara
wolves abound on the 100000 acres
which the Miller Brothers own. Sew
eral mounted deer heads testify to the
speedy fate which befell antlered ami
mails which crossed his path among
the grassy slopes and tree-clad hills.
MIR. Miller is conspicuous figure
in all the numbers OF the long and va
ried programme of the l0l Ranch, Wild
West Show performance and leads
the long line of mounted men and
women in the forenoon street parade.
The horse he rides is a full. blooded
Arabian steed, imported from the de-
sert straight to the l01 Ranch. It is
valued at $4,000.

ANOTHER GUSHER.

Friday the Lake Oil Co
brought in their sixth gusher al
Anse LaButte. The well is 10.
Gated near the line of the Beg
maud tract. It became neces-
sary to put on air pressure and
