Favored by Parents.

Statements made today by principals of
the high schools and by several school
authorities indicate that the edict of the
board Of education asking that girls of
the graduating classes Of the normal and
high schools should dress simply" had
been generally received by parents, as
well as by many Of the girls themselves,
as good ruling.
Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey. a member
OF the board Of education. who Is one OF
the most ardent advocates of the 'simple
graduation exercises movement, said to-
day that though she had received many
words from parents, both spoken and
written, commencing the action of the
board. she had received not one word of
disapproval Principal Emory Wilson of
the Central High School also stated that
he received many messages commencing
the boards action, and no disappearing
one
The board of education does not wish
to prevent the girls from wearing pretty
things when they graduate. according to
Mrs. Mussey, but they do wish to bar
long trains, decolletes and elaborate
forms of dress that belong more properly
to social functions than to school eXer-
cises.
Mrs. Mussey said that several women in
the schools had been investigating the
cost of graduation in the high and nor
NAL schools for girls. and that they had
concluded that with all the accessories
which were necessary 1t would be prac-
tically impossible for a girl to spend less
than S25 for her graduation.

A meeting Of a committee of teachers

DECISION NO. 1874.
The Labelling of New Orleans
Molasses Required.

1t appears from an investigation
conducted by the Board Of Food and
Drug Inspection that there is wide
variety of opinions with respect tc
the meaning Of the term New Or.
leans Molasses..' The evidence al
hand shows that New Orleans" mo
lasses Is generally understood to be {
product of Louisiana. 1t is apparent
that the original significance Of the
term New Orleans" molasses as ap.
piled to open-kettle drippings OF
"bleedings" has disappeared.
The Food and Drugs Act requires
a label to be free from any state
ment which is false or misleading In
any particular. In view Of the gen
eral understanding of the term
New Orleans" molasses the board
is of the opinion that the term New
Orleans" should be restricted to mo-
lasses produced in Louisiana. In
addition, all molasses so labeled may
bear the further statement of its
quality or grade, namely. "open ket-
tie, first centrifugal" second
centrifugal" "olack strap" etc.
