How to peveIon the Arms.

An exercise which develops all the
muscles from the shoulders to the fin
ger tips is the corkscrew movement.
Stretch one arm at time up over the
head and, beginning with the hand,
twist the muscles. starting at the
shoulder. This strengthens and devel-
ops all the muscles. 1t produces a sort
of corkscrew OF spiral curve that is
beautiful. This exercise makes the
arms graceful. A certain famous ac-
tress who has classically perfect arms
keeps them so by this method.

Lafourche crossed bats with
combination of the Labadie and
Napoleonville teams at Dautin's
Park last Sunday. 1t was at first
intended that the game was to
be between Thibodaux and Napo
leon, but due to the fact that se-
veral of the Napoleonville players
were initiated into the Knights of
Columbus the same day the CONS
bInation game was arranged. The
game was replete with good plays
ing, bat the locals were superior
in the game and got the better of
everything, in the pitching, in the
hitting and in the fielding. The
locals made record for the nun
Der of hits, the long distance hits,
as well as for the absence OF errors
as compared with last Sundays
game, only one error being made.

Braxton Bragg camp of Confede-
rate Veterans, 1876 held its annual
meeting at the Y. M. B. A. hall
last Sunday afternoon and was
largely attended. The meeting
was addressed by Major General
Thomas Shaffer of the Louisiana
Division and he gave very good adj
vice speaking in the most eloquent
terms. Besides electing officers
other matters were brought up,
among others it was decided to
bold the annual banquet in Thibo-
daux this year in the month of May,
the date was left to Commander
John Shaffer and the arrangement
was left in the hands of the officers.
A resolution was introduced to
build a monument and burial place
in Thibodaux and Houma' to bury
the veterans, objection was raised
due to the fact that the veterans be
ing of various religions it would be
impossible to build one in every
cemetery and the resolution was
accordingly defeated. Another re-
solution was offered that a monu-
ment or sAaft be erected in both
towns in some appropriate place
and a committee consisting of the
officers was appointed for that pur-
pose. The officers elected are as
follows John J. Shaffer, Comman
der; Ozeme Naquin. Lieut.. Com
mander; HI. N. Coulon, Adiutant;
DR.. H. Dansereau, Surgeon; C. A.
