MOUNT oliVET NOTES.

Although not largely attended, the
last meeting of the Woman's Guild
held a very interesting meeting at the
rectory last Tuesday night. The
Guild has on hand some nice articles
left over from the Gift Sale" of last
year which they offer at an extremely
low price, some of which are suitable
for Christmas presents, and all of
which are worth double the money.
The rector was absent last week in
Baton Rouge, where he had gone on
Wednesday to solemnize the marriage
of Mr.. John Herrop of Lake Charles
and Miss Mary Hester Chamberlain.
The latter was one of the first friends
he made when he was lay reading.
prior to taking orders, and was a guest
in his fathers house, and she was a
small child. While there he conduit
ed the funeral of the only son of an
old friend, Andrew David Lyle, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Howard Lyle, and the
funeral of Joshua Baker Hare, the
chief of police of Baton Rouge, who
wa skilled by drunken police office
whom he was trying to arrest. The
rector of st. James church, Baton
Rouge, was absent in attendance upon
the Missionary Council of the Sewa-
nee District, where he went as a dele
gate from this diocese.
Next Thursday is Thanksgiving day.
The service is fixed for 9 a. m. There
will be no other service that day. The
offering as set forth by Council on
that day will be for the widows and
orphans of the clergy.
There will be special meeting of
the teachers of the Sunday school on
next Monday night. All are expected
to be present as matters of import
ance will come up before them.

THE BEllEVIlLE SCHOOL.

The newly elected president of the
School Board, Hon. J. Watt Duffy, and
the superintendent, Mr.. J. VI. Gwinni
were escorted to our schools last
Thursday by our district director, Mr.
Frank Henning.
In a simple but kindly talk, Mr.. Hen
ming spoke of Mr.. Duffy, of his per
sonal appreciation of the help Mr..
Duffy had given him in securing things
needed by the Fifth District schools,
and of Mr. Duffy, personally. Mr.. Duff
fly expressed, in response, his appre-
citation of the compliment paid him
by his election, and his feeling, now,
that not only were the schools Of the
Fifth District his care, but that all
those of the city claimed his atten-
ton, and said that he intended to de-
vote himself so heartily TO them that
they should each feel and know ii.
Mr.. Gwinn cOmplimented the school
on its ability TO assemble so quickly
and to arrange its pupils SO effective
ly, every one being so placed that she
could see as well or hear what was
going on. He had seen nothing like
it in any other school he had visited so
far. He said he expected to make in
his report special mention of the
schools making the best attendance
record for the session, and he hoped
Belleville would be first.
The Third B Grade, under Miss EN-.
ma Rees, was specially commended
for its perfect October attendance, as
were children who had for last ses-
sion received perfect attendance"
cards last June, and those who had
not, this session, been absent or tar
dy. In leaving the school the classes
in gymnastics were observed. Out in
the sun light, with the pretty rose
vines and shrubs about, the bright,
happy faces formed a picture worth
long remembering.

In the Belleville School basket ball
teams We're formed last Friday. The
following named were elected: Cap
tain, Sidonia Sutherland, Clair Kee-
nan, 1nez Irving, Alva Salathe, Minette
Farlaris, Edna Guretts, Carrie Brown
and Irma Schroeder. Carrie Brown,
becoming unable TO serve, Carrie
Wagner was elected by members of
her team.
One hundred and one girls take part
in these games. The training the
games afford in qualities making to-
wards good citizenship is not the least
of their value. Elected by their
schoolmates, the captains acquire tact
in managing others, judgment in the
assignment of players, and independ-
ence and initiative. The members of
the team learn to render obedience to
their leader, the value of cooperation
to secure common end, and, on all,
is impressed the need of quick &C.
ton, punctuality and self-control OF
body and mind. On Thursday and
Fridays, of fair days, the games will
be played on the Belleville court, and
an interesting sight is the beautiful
order that prevails while so much life
and action is in progress. Parents
would enjoy it, and they are cordially
invited to be present, then or at any
time in the day, should they care to
observe the school at work.
The Belleville Alumnae will hold a
called meeting on Friday, November
20, 1911, at which time all members
who are interested in the work of the
Alumnae and in the Christmas cele-
bration are earnestly requested to at
tend.
The Belleville School has voted
enough money from it's fund to buy
the Christmas tree, dolls and candy.
and the Alumnae have volunteered to
dress the dolls and carry out the pro-
gram for the celebration.
1t is for the purpose of discussing
this subject that the meeting is called,
and a splendid attendance of earnest
members is expected.

SKIN FROM BOYS LEG
GRATED UPON HIS FOOT

Joseph Herbert, of 724 Pelican ave.
nue., who had a foot crushed some
weeks ago. was subjected to a skin
grating operation at the Charity Hos
pital yesterday. Skin was taken from
his leg and grated on the bottom of
the injured foot.
The operation is known to surgeons
as the Wolf Krause graft"
To accomplish the operation but one
layer of skin was taken from the leg,
and caused to adhere to the bottom of
the foot. That circulation of blood
might continue and assist in the graft.
ing, the foot was strapped tight to the
point on the leg at which the skin
had been removed. The operation was
not painful. In ten days the sole of
the injured foot will have a new
growth Of skin upon it, and soon after
the boy will be about again.

Longevity Favors Women.

yium the New YoSk Mail.
Consider the showing made by vital
statistics gathered in the new census.
For every five-year period from birth up
to the age OF seventy years the death
rate in the United States Is much higher
among men than among women. For
the years from seventy to eighty the
death rate is nearly the same for both
sexes, put from eighty to ninety there
are one hundred women living to every
severty-f1ve men, while the proportion
OF women among persons who pass the
age of ninety is still greater.
This showing in favor of women is
probably due TO the fact that they live
more orderly lives than men do. But
that does not fully account for 1t. 1t Is
the opinion of medical scientists that
making ample allowance for the losses
Of masculine life in war. In dangerous
occupations, and for deaths due to i'm
proper living. there are good reasons
Tor believing that nothing short Of con-
sdtutional difference can account for
the greater tenacity Of lie in women"

SENATOR PAGES HOBBY.
Peruscs Newspaper Columns Jus
Like an Exchange Editor.

From TIE New York Herald.
There have been trust" Senators,
tribunes Of the people like Senator "Jeff''
Davis, of Arkansas; Senators with hob
bies and without, and now there is a
newspaper reading Senator. He is Sena-
tor Carroll S. Page, of Vermont, and he
does his newspaper reading with system
and success.
When Senator Page approaches the
Senate chamber at the meeting hour he
brings with nim a great armful of news
papers. Sometimes a messenger carries
the overflow. After the musketry fire
of bills and petitions which make up the
morning hour is over. Senator Page
retires with his newspapers to a settee
placed across a far corner on the Repub-
lican side. He goes into his newspapers
like an exchange editor.
When Senator Page finds something
good on the editorial page he grasps 1t
at the top and tears straight down
through the page Things to be pre-
served are laid aside in a chair. News
papers when read go with a careless jerk
over the back of the Senate settee and
fill the corner.
