the pupil Is that much better equipped
for the battle Of life.
In the manual training room OF
Westminster High School is an exhib-
Il Of what the pupils accomplished
during the past term. There are
whisk-holders, boxes for stamps,
matches. gloves. handkerchiefs, &C. !;
music cabinet, desk with pigeon holes,
round tables and square tables. many
samples Of burnt wood. morris chair,
and a hundred other articles, all
showing cleverness OF design and
neatness in execution. Most Of
the articles are OF the mission style,
but there are other pieces which
show high degree of polish.
One Of the most elaborate pieces
shown is the State coat OF arms IN
wood. and close second is the miss
ion lamp OF wood, with green glass,
both OF which give evidence OF con-
siderable skill. The most fascinating
exhibit Is the mechanical drawing.
whose neatness and accuracy attracts
and holds the attention OF every yisi-
ton, who cannot help but feel admir-
alton for the wonderful patience and
exhaustive effort which its execution
must have called forth. There are
also samples OF free-hnnd drawing.
The work OF the girls In this depart
ment consisted chiefly in the making
OF baskets Of raffla and willow. and of
these there are some very pretty
specimens. Everett A. HIldey is the
instructor Ia this department
IN the commercial department. OF
which Earl Simpson Is instructor.
there were several specimens OF tab
ular and other work done on the tyne
writer. as well 40 other evidences Of
the progress made by the pupils in
this branch Of iearninR.
There we're also several neatly
prepared papers showing solntiona of
problems IN geometry and trlgonom-
etry.

Manual Training Department.

Not so very many years ago Il was
considered that the schools had per-
formed their whole duty when thew
graduated boys and girls with a fair
knowledge of the three fundamentals
reading, writing and arithmetic
The application of this knowledge was
LETT to the exercise of the student m
his future avocation. In the present
day education goes much further thar
this. It not only trains the mind. but
IL trains the hand. When a boy leaves
school today he Is equipped with 4
goodly amount of experience IN the
handling OF the tools used In the dif-
ferent trades. Thus the practical IA

ton will remain unchanged as
far as Angola, and will run on
about the same schedule as at
present. The only important
change is the putting on of a
through night train between New
Orleans and Shreveport. This
train is due to leave Shreveport
in the evening, arriving at Bayou
Sara at 4;0S a. m, and New Or
leans, $50. Leaving New Or.
leans at 6:2O p. m, the train will
reach Bayou Sara at 1890, and
Shreveport, early the next morn
ing. Train ) from Angola will
reach here at 4;25p p. m. and train
6 from New Orleans at II a. m,
these being the trains of greatest
interest and service as TO mails
along the route.
The schedule as now arranged
meets with the approval of all.
Thenew trains will allow a stay
of three or four hours longer in
the city, besides cutting down
the running time between New
Orleans and Bayou Sara.
When the night trains were
first announced the railroad com
pany gave out that the day trains
would be discontinued north of
Baton Rouge. This would have
caused untold Inconvenience be-
tween Baton Rouge and Angola
and the people promptly raised
a vigorous kick.
We are glad to see the l.. X. &

our people would have resented
their action in annulling the pres.
ent trains, and hardship and in
conveniences would have prOba.

before he left that he hoped that
sleep and quietness would enfOld
the ranch on his return as he
knew he would be tired and
sleepy. What does the modern
