DOMESTIC SCIENCE
is TO Be TAUGHT

County Superintendent Williams and
five township trustees completed ar
engagements this morning whereby do
mestic science shall be taught in the
schools of Fountain City, Greensboro
Williamsburg, Whitewater and Web
Ster.
Miss DAILY, of Lynn, Ind, will be ap-
pointed to do the teaching and will
spend one day each week in each of
the schools. This is the initial move
ment Of the trustees where the schools
are located to start the vocational
work which must necessarily be in
stituted in accordance with the voca-
tional law recently enacted.
The schools are all SO arranged that
no additions will have to be built. Prac-
tically all the work will be taught from
text books and there will be very little
the first year. The object of the Off
cials is to instruct the pupils of the
schools in as many of the vocational
and domestic science courses as pos
sihle without putting the townships
and the county to too great an ex-
pense.
Eventually the schools will be sup
piled with cooking and sewing depart
ments and provided with ground on
which experiments can be performed
along agricultural lines. 1t is believ-
ed that Miss Daily is the most practi-
cal teacher who could be retained for
the work. She has had considera BILE
experience as a teacher and is we'll
versed along lines pertaining to do
nestle science work.

Piano Used Consta ntly.

The Starr Plano company's rest
tent, which has been established near
the headquarters tent, is proving very
popular with the young people who
attend. The tent is equipped with a
piano and a number of comfortable
wicker chairs and at almost any time
in the day crowd of girls may be found
in the tent, grouped about the piano
and singing popular songs.
Well Organized Force.
The police force at the grounds are
preserving excellent order and report
the campers to be quiet and law abd-
ing. No report of refusal to obey an
officer has as yet been heard of.
Ate Ten Ears of Corn.
There is a story going the
rounds of the camp, circulated
mainly by the Palladium carriers,
that one boy at the Pal" camp
ate the whole sum total of nine
ears of corn yesterday evening
when the cook served roasting
ears" to the hungry boys. The
boys are trying to keep the news
from the cook at least until the
camp is over and they no longer
need his services in an official
capacity, for they fear that the
shock would be more than he could
sustain and they would have to
hunt a new cook.

preside on the platform. He doesn't

Crop Comment.

A cold spell that was unusually
protracted for this season OF the year
prevailed during the closing days OF
last week and for two or three days
at the outset Of the present period,
and the unreasonable temperatures
worked some damage to the young
crops. The mercury lowered in the
vicinity Of - 45-degree mark for
several days, ane early risers Sunday
claizeed to have observed light
frost, but there is no official record
OF such visitation. Since Wednes-
day the weather has been warming
up and for the latter half of the
week the climatic conditions were
such as to undo the harm caused by
he unWelcome cool snap and bring
the crops out OF the ground with
jump.
There has been a temporary lull
in field work, due to uneasiness over
the high water situation, and on
many places the reinforcement and
repair of back Ievees is the task on
which the gangs are now engaged.
This is true particularly OF those
plantations on the Wesa bank of Ba-
you Lafourche in Assumption parish,
many OF which sustained consider
able crop damage last year through
the inundation Of their rear lands by
water from the Torras creyasse. On
the Armelise and Westfield properties
in upper Assumption much work has
been done the past two weeks in
the way OF putting the protection
leyees in good shape, and with the
disastrous experience OF 1912 as a
reminder, every precaution has been
taken to avert an overflow should
another crevasse occur in the Atcha-
falaya district this year. The ex-
ample of these plantations IS being
generally emulated, and no such
widespread damage as was inflicted
on the cane and corn crops last year
could result from break Id the
levee line anywhere along the Mis-
sissippi river front in this section
during the approaching flood
