Beer and hard booze flowed like

n few half sober men from being
killed.
The beer-sodden bunch got at the

ways played "Old Harry" with the

The Mer Rouge Democrat says
that'as a rule, it accepts what we
say as true, but balks at our
story that the wind, during the
storm of Sept. 20, blew an island
at Riddle 200 yards across a
large pond, without disOrderlng
the weeds which grew upon it.
We have not seen the phenome-
non, but our correspondent, in
whom we have confidence, again
writes: I'VE all admit it was a
wonder, and can no more explain
it than the doubling Thomas
Others have seen the island, be-

AVERY BLOUNr
PAYS PENALTY.

Avery Blount was hanged in
the Tangipahoa parish prison, by
Sheriff John Saal, shortly after
l o'clock, yesterday afternoon.
Blount was hanged for his par
ticipation in the murder of the
Breeland family in the Tickfaw
neighborhood, last spring.
BlOunt died protesting his in.
nocence and heaping maledictiOns
upon his enemies.
The execution of Blount is the
first legal hanging of a white man
ever taking place in Tangipahoa
parish, and marks a turning point
in the affairs of that parish. For
years Tangipahoa has been rife
with factional strife, and up to
very recently, midnight murders
and assaSSinatiOns were of fire.
quent occurrence. After a mum.
Der of these bloody deeds, the
law-abiding citizens of that parish
formed an organization for the
suppression of crime, and the
conviction and execution of Avery
Blount followed. This execution
will possibly be followed shortly
by others in that parish, as there
are no less than a dozen men un.
der arrest there charged with
capital offenses.
Every precaution was taken ia
guard BlOunt and he was kept in
the parish prison in New Orleans
from the time of his conviction up
to two days before the execution,
He was then taken to Amite City

In a recent speech Congress-

which is a fiat, low country, re-
claimed by drainage, and about a
century old, is now the best agri,
cultural portion of England
They have been confronted with
the same difficulty, their roads
becoming impossible every win
ter. A cheap, inexpensive plan
was pursued to maintain good
roads. Many trenches, three
and one-half to four feet deep,
were cut on either side of the
road, thing being too expensive;
brush was cut and sunk in these
trenches, and after being wei
mashed down, the brush was
covered up and dirt roads built
above it, just as we do now. II
that way the capillary action O

ONE REASON FOR BAD SPELL,
ING.

People and press alike deplore
the fact that spelling is not so
successfully taught as twenty
years ago. One reason IS that
the children are not taught to
pronounce their SyllableS, hence
their ear is not made familiar
with the component parts Of a
word, and the children lose the
help that knowing one word or
syllable gives in learning anOth-
er. Recognition by the eye is
depended on for spelling, The
ear suffers bOmbardment from a
word spelled in full, a shock to
the hearer and a strain on the
memory of the speller. Sup
pose some one fires a word at
you thus: c-O-n-s-t-i t.u-t-i.o-n-a-l-
ism. Would it not take close
attention to know what it was,
and accurate information on the
part of the speller to get all the
letters right: And yet every
day mothers and fathers have
words like that fired at them
with requests for proper pro.
nunciation of same, and the
chances are that the parent
says: Good heavens, no, spell it
again" And the child can, if he
looks on the book! In the good
old days, the child knew that
con spelled con, and was equal
ly familiar with the pronuncia-
ton of the other short syllables.
He was skilled in dividing words

uses as a clinching argument

good Democratic doctrine, but
that does not say that the MAORI

therefore was in a position to put
words together correctly. Now,
each new word must be learned
with no help from his previous
knowledge of other words.

CARELESS MAKING or APPRO-
PRTAYYONS BILL-OR WHAT?

The correspondence, publish
ed between President M. {.
Bridges of the East Fellciana
School Board and State Superin-
tendent of Education, T. H. Har-
ris. calls state wide attention to
the fact that though the Legisla-
ture of 1908 seemingly approprl-
ated 100000 to the public schools
of the state, the schools &C
tually received but little more
than the sum appropriated in
1906. which was $660,000. The
Legislature saved itself by this
expression, 100000 or any
part thereof as may be available
from the taxes collected" 1t
sounded we'll and satisfied the
clamor of the people for an in,
crease of appropriation for the
schools, and at the same time
left large loophole for the use
of the taxes for other purposes
That the clause was so employed
is now evident.
Unfortunately, the apparently
big figures misIed the East Fell
ciana Board and possibly many
other country boards, too honest
to be suspicious of clauses tack
ed on, inducing the making Of
large local expenditures, prem
ised on the funds expected from
the state.
For this reason, the East Fell
ciana Board is in debt. No
from any wilful fault of it's own
but from Over-cOntidence tina
the State would keep it's prom
ises, made through it's agents, t
the people.

tons in the late session Of thu
legislature knew what it was do
ing-in other words, acted in per
feet sincerity-when it named 81
large a sum as $9OO,OOQ for tn
schools. The clause wOul(
seem to indicate that the Com
mittee itself was doubtful of tn
receipt of sufficient taxes t
meet this demand. If the Com
mittee was honest in naming tn
sum as of practicable realization
then it becomes more pertinen
to inquire what has become Q

The Crowley Signal discussing
the vexed question of the new
textbooks suggests that perhaps
the change in grammars was due
to the necessity for introducing
the expression, ooh you kid,
which was not known two years
ago. AS we have before said, the
grammars in the lower grade
were not changed. The reason
was probably that none of the
pets had elected to write on that
subject. Had Mr.. AsWell, OF
any of the happy coterie written
a grammar, the book would have
been adopted, though yet in
