The Barbecue.

The Fourth of July celebration
which was arranged by the
Boosters Club, resulted in the
largest outpouring of people that
has ever been known in Column
bia. 1t was an ideal summer day,
and every arrangement was so
perfect that not a single murmur
or Jar of dissatisfaction was
heard among all of the vast con-
course of people, numbering
more than two thousand.
Mr.. Atkinson of the State
Highway Commission was pres
ent, and by his very simple and
comprehensive talk, awakened a
lasting interest in the building OF
good roads, and as a result, two
applications for State aid in the
construction of model roads have
already been made.
Mr.. Richardson of the Agri-
cultural Department of the Louis
lana State University was pres
ent, and proved himsely a very
able and entertaining talker on
the subject embraced in the de-
partment with which he is con-
nected.
DR.. Irrelevant of the State
Board of Health was also pres
ent, and delivered a lecture on
general sanitation, that should
prove of untold value to the citi-
zenship of Caldwell parish if
they will but avail themselves of
and act upon the suggestions Of
ffered by DR.. Trezeyant.
The Boosters Club deserves to
be congratulated on the success
full effort which they have made
towards the upbuilding of the
commercial and agricultural in
terests of the town and parish.

how TO PRESENT
CHRISTMAS GIf1S

There are many ways in which
Christmas gifts may be distributed.
First Of all, Of course, the time hon
ored Christmas tree is most desirable
for a large family. Another break
fast or on Christmas eve some II
can play the piano while the others
trip in two by two to the tree, which
IS brilliantly. lighted and standing in
a darkened room. When a gift is too
cumbersome to lie under the tree an
amusing way of presenting it is to
write the name Of it on a. Christmas
card and slip the card in a good sized
box filled with excelsior and tied up
in paper and ribbons, with the receiv.
ers name on 1t. He solves the my
stery by reading the card. The time
h0nored Christmas stocking may be
used with the tree or without. When
the gifts proper are placed around the
tree the stockings may be stuffed with
fruits, sugar plums and tiny baubles,
which will while away the hours until
time for seeing the tree. Many a
merry stocking celebration may be
had, too, without stockings if a little
ingenuity is exerted. The Christmas
| stockings may be made of card, some
Of, them %grOtesque and some handsome
and dainty according to the p%ers0nali-
ty of those to whom they belong.
Each stocking should then be tabled
with the name of the person for whom
intended and fastened to the mantel-
| niece, inscribed with the James Of the
gifts awaiting him. Another pleas
ant way to d stribute the holiday
present is the Jack Horner pie. This
is merely an old fashioned wash tub,
filled with bran and packed with gifts,
to each of which is attached a long
ribbon streamer with a tag inscribed
with the proper name. The streamers
can be used most decoratively on the
top of the pie before it is opened, for,
of course. the important tub is orna.
mented beyond recognition. One. Of
the best ways of ornamenting it is
with greens, having all the 2streamers
of the red and tucking holly berries
here, there and everywhere. All ga
