Thinss to Remembsr.

This has been going the rounds for some
time, but it is good enough to repeat and
repeat again, until it has soaked into the
craniums of those to whom it refers:
Here are few things that the home
merchant should remember: Who stands
up for you through thick and thin? Who
makes it plain to the people that it is to
their interest to trade with the home
merchants? Is it Sparks & Sports Or is it
the home paper? When new enter
prise is to be put on foot, whom do you
ask to whoop it up? The Horsey Printing
Company or your home paper? When the
schools are to be praised; when good
streets are to be advocated; when the adj
vantages of the town are to be held up as
a market center and trading point; when
the fertility of the soil and the opportu-
mites offered by the town are to be ad-
vertised to the world, wh0EAexpected to
do it? Is it Beeline & Comp9ny or the
home paper? 1t is the home paper every
time, and remember that the home paper
is entitled to the patronage of the home
merchant over the outside printing firm.
just as the home merchant is entitled TO
the business over mail order houses. -

Alabama 5 Returning Sanity.

Alabamas primary has done more than
dive a setback to statewide prohibition.
1t has called halt on the anti-corpora-
ton agitation which has ragged there, as
well as in some CT the other southern
states and in few Of those Of the west
in recent years. The man who has car
ried the state for the Democratic nomina-
ton for governor, Emmett O'Neal, is a
local option advocate. He has overWhelm-
ingly beaten Mallory, the statewide
LIQUOR exclusionist. O'Neal stands also
for fair treatment for the railways and
the other corporations.
Nine states have statewide prohi6l-
ton. Three of these-Maine, Kansas and
North Dakota-are northern states. The
others-North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi, Tennessee and Oklahoma
are southern states. Alabama is one OF
the states which became dry on Janu-
ary 1, 1909. After an experience OF lit
tle over a year that state has turned
against the excluSlonlsts, ana lhteIidS u
let the counties and the big towns deal
with the liquor issue Independently. In
the coming election public sentiment is
expected to express itself concretely on
this question, with the result that the ole
sane method of home rule for the various
communities in the state will be adopted
anew. 1t is believed that Mississippi ane
North Carolina, both of which also begar
the, statewide experiment at the begin
ming of 1909, will return to local option a
an early day. In Tennessee, which shu
out the liquor traffic, in theory, on July l
1909, the experiment is likewise failure

Is the Comet Radiun1?


Ep1roR CHEF:
Astronomers differ 50 widely in their
opinions as to the effect of the earth's
passage throq gh the comets tail. that the
layrnan cannot be blamed for doing lit
tie theorizing and specuIating.
Camille FlammaFioa anticipates dire re-
suits from the cyanogen gas with which
the tail is supposed to beieharged
| A great American astronomer scientist
] pooh-pool1s the idea. and says that the
amount of cyanogsn, if any, is scarcely
appreciable.
10 certain quarters feazs Rassheen ex-
pressed that a collision between earth
and comet will occur, but Sir Robert Ball,
the English authority on heavenly bodies,
says that as charging Thinoceros does
not fear a cobweb. neither should the
earth fear collision with the comet" He
quotes Herschel as having said that the
comet could be compressed within a va
ise.
None of these brainy star gazers tell US
anything of the component parts of the
comet
A very ordinary fellow with the half
inch vision one who would shy at 8
telescope would like to give vent to ar
idea, formed while trying to figure out
what the learned ones are. trying to say
Let US suppose that tie tail Of tae comet
is composed of fine, inpalpable dust
thrown off from the nucleus or head
Now, we know that a body projected VIC
lentIy through the air throws off certain
particles in its fight If the head of the
coEet is radiMn (Which is INTENSITY
luminous), and if it travels very rapid!
through space, why should not very fine
particles of that radium dust be thrown
of and form the tail Of light through
which we must pass? Then, when VIZ
pass through the tail, some small portion
of radium dust will be deposited upon tht
earth. This has probably been done IL
the past, and may be lie source from
which earth derives its radium.
Comets and radium are Equally myste
rious bodies. and equally lard to analyze
Can there be any relation between tht

The Maine to be Raised.

At last the battered wreck OF the Oid
battleship Maine. which was sunk in
Havana harbor through an explosion just
prior to the war with Spain, is 20 be Te-
moved and the bodies of the unfortunate
sailors still believed to be entombed in
the hulk are to be buried if recovered in
Arlington National Cemetery and the
steel mast of the wrecked ship is to be
erected over their place of-;52ferment as
monument. Such are the provisions of a
bill which has now passed both houses of
congress. The work is to be done by the
army engineers under the direction of the
secretary of war.
Efforts have been made for many years
| to induce congress to provide for the rec
moval of the wreck, which has become an
unSightly obstruction to the harbor of a
| friendly state, but until now nothing has
been done There have been some peoo
pie who have believed that this unwilo
lingness to disturb the wreck was due to
fear that the raising of the sunken ship
might reveal that the disaster was due
not to an external explosion due to
treachery, but to the explosion of the
ships own magazine. 1t is not at all
likely that such motive had anything to
do with the matter
1t now makes little difference what
caused the explosion, as the war with
\ Spain which followed the catastrophe has
long passed into history. Soon after the
explosion occurred court of inquiry COM
posed of high ranking naval officers de-
cided that the explosion came fcom with
out While not. a few people have al
ways entertained some doubt as to the
accuracy of this finding, it must stand
; until some evidence to the contrary is
forthcoming. Should the raising of the
ship show thaBthe court of inquiry was
mistaken, no special harm will be done,
although such development might give
some satisfaction in Spain as generating
; the Spanish forces then in Havana from
all suspicion of treachery
Although the wreck will be removed
from Havana harbor, the event of the
wreck itself will always remain as most

Circular Letter TO Teachers.

Parish Superintendent j. L., Rusca has
issued the following circular letter to the
teachers of Ascension parish:
DEAR TEACHERS:
AT our teachers meetings you have
been presented with circulars of informa-
ton regarding the summer schools that
viii be held this year at the State Uni
versity, Tulane, the Normal School, and
the Lafayette and RusfsS Industrial In
stitutes.
While the board is not in a position
to offer any special inducement to teach
ers who attend one of these schools this
summer, it is expected that you, as a
progressive teacher, will avail yourself of
this opportunity for increasing your schol-
arship and advancing your professional
training
THE inexperienced, self-satisfed
teacher who is constantly hemmed in by
narrow horizon and who never sees
W 2erein she fails and another succeeds
corps of the state.
The schools of the state and of this
parish are rapidly undergoing a state o1
development and growth and people are
beginning to realize what it means tc
have competent. energetic teachers, who
can put their life and spirit into theil
work and who do things, not only for the
betterment of the pupils and the school
but for the entire community.
The board and win expect better re
suits in the schools of the parish during
the coming session. In order to attain
this end we must have in our schools
teachers who are willing to earn thei
salary, teachers who are willing to pu
forth their best effort, teachers who ar
not content with their meager store 0
knowledge and their short equipment, bu
/ who are Wlde-aWake at all times ant
i ever ready to drink at the fountain 0
knowledge; finally, teachers who are &C
tuated at least at times by a higher mo
tive than the mere acquisition of dollar
and cents. teachers who have a common
sympathy and love for humanity an
who are capable of deriving pleasur
from the consciousness of duty well an
nobly performed.
Il ask that you give this your earnes
consideration and | trust that you wi
realize what il means to you and to th
/. children of the state.
VERY respectfully yours,
