THE CHARM OF GOOD ROADS.

In the opening chapters of S. S. Nc.
Clure's autobiography, now running
in the magazine that bears his name,
the author tells the story of early pow
eTty in Ireland. He pictures the small,
but exquisitely clean house in which
the family lived, until one fairly sees
1t, but the greatest charm lies in the
description of his walk to school.
There were good paved roads and
walking was no hardship for there
were no wet, muddy feet. and he could
stop to pluck the flowers growing by
the roadside. His delight over these
simple experiences SO imbedded it.
self In his nature, that after all these
years, he can communicate his pleas.
ure in words to his readers.
And this was in Ireland, which is
commonly an object of pity. Yet few
country boys in America that walk to
school can do so as comfortably. The
tale, they must tell, to future genera
tons will not be one to kindle the i'm.
aginatlon, save with pity.

AS TO BANK DIRECTORS.

Joy, at this time, the article on bank
ing in the current issue of the Satur
day Evening Post, particularly the
passages having to do with bank di

serts that it is a disadvantage to q
man wishing to borrow to be bank
director, because he must not only in
measure pass on his loan, but in or
der to get that loan, he must make
concessions to other prospective Dor
rowers, all of which might not be fol-
the good of his bank. On the othe,
hand, less scrupulous director would
not hesitate to get loans both for him.

ORAL ENGLISH TO BE RESCUED

Says Superintendent Gwinn: "We
are going to pay special attention to
oral English In the schools from now
on. The influence of negro dialect
and foreign tongues is communicating
the speech of the pupils and a special
endeavor will be made this year to
correct the faults of pronunciation and
set up goal of pure English speech"
There is no branch more neglected
than oral English. When one hears
high school boys and girls say "You
was" and Between you and l." the
proof is at hand that to make the
study of English practical there must
be oral training. Of course, there are
teachers, here and there, who correct
pupils English while reciting, but
these are rare.

MAKING THE USUAL UNUSUAL

The domestic science class at the
high school in st. Francisville began
it's first lessons in cooking, lact Fri
day, and a pretty sight it was: the
tall, young teacher but little older
than her pupils but very dignified and
proper, the bevy of girls picturesque
in white aprons and caps. The first
essay was in cooking fruit. A banana
cooked in butter was, we believe, the
first lesson. Good old apple sauce
was the material proof of the next
My daughter came in, brightly smil-
ing. eve made apple sauce and it
was so good that we ate every bit,
and so was Fridays cooking"
Apple sauce! Fried banana! Can
one believe her ears? How often have
these dishes appeared on the home
table and passed On as 81 never did
like cooked fruit" Well, we'll, great
is the cooking school, if it makes ev-
cry day fare interesting and palatable.
And that is just what it will do Train
ed cooking will not only teach correct
methods in the preparation of food,
but it will do infinitely more. 1t will
dignity domestic labor and it will
raise simple foods in Importance.
Training in serving will do as much
for neatness and daintiness in all
handiwork.
Manual training, which in the no
menclature of the schools means car
|penter and homework, will also EN-
phasize the beauty and Importance of
other forms of labor even as the agri-
cultural schools are doing for other
branches, and all of these activities
will enable young people to "find
themselves" to discover their bent,
and if such runs to carpentering or
plain sewing, they will know that
there is no need to suppose that such
occupations are not as highly honor
able as the supposedly more learned
PROFESSIONALISM as nobly vocational
Making the usual, the common ev
cry day work of life, seem unusual is
to give it charm for the youi.g,
which they will find irresistible.

CLEANING IN BAYOU SARA.

Pressure of other matter prevented
our applauding in last issue the steps
taken by the Mayor of Bayou Sara to
clean up the town by removing gar
bage regularly and by clearing the
town of rubbish. 1t will make the
place look much better, even though
no substantial town improvements can
be made. Every good citizen should
work with will to assist Mayor Lo-
gan in his public-spirited efforts.
1t is we'll to remember that no citi-
zen can be really considered a good
one, however neatly he keeps his own
premises, If he takes no interest in
the public streets; If he carelessly
permits the throwing out of refuse
and makes no effort to have it remov-
ed to an inconspicuous place. Every
one knows the man, or more frequent
ly 1t is woman, who takes the great
est pride in house and yard, but will
deliberately deposit the weeds from
the one and the ashes from the other
in the street in front of the house.
Such one is needless of the fact that
the foreground Of any picture is first
observed, and thus, by this course the
beauty of this particular view is in
jured, if not destroyed. A pretty house
and grounds with street full of ash
dumps is like peacock with it's glo-
ries spread but its gnarled and ugly
feet unhidden.

MAKE A FIRE.

The monthly bulletin of the Louisi'
ana State Board of Health makes a
suggestion, which we publish In all.
other place, to make fire these cool
mornings and evenings, instead OF
shutting doors and windows. 1t would
seem unnecessary to suggest anything
so obvious, were it not so common to
do exactly the reverse. Particularly
the oVer.neat h0usekeeper is l0ath to
begin early to make fire as the tenn
perature drops ever so slightly. She
breads the nuisance and soil of coal
or wood and the inevitable ashes. The
CRATES are not put in yet, or have not
been freshly BACKED for the opening
of the cold season. Any Of these is the
reason for the absence of genial fire,
which would draw things together and
make the house more attractive.
Who does not recall visit made, all
in the chilly weather, to house where
no fires are built til late fall? Is
it not an unpleasant experience stand
ing out in your memory, when you
had shiVers or nearshiyers, and didn't
know exactly when the next one would
come on? The hostess will mean
while sweetly remark, 1--WE have
not put in our CRATES yet. l dread the
mess 80" She evidently does not
dread the colds, the house-clamminess,
the general uncomfortableness
The best rule is never to take out
all Of the CRATES Of house or shut up
all of the fire-places, but leave at
least one open, not only for the first
breath of autumn, but for the chill
that comes after a thunderstorm in
midsummer, or the dampness Of the
house after long, wet spell. Make
fire and dry out the house, as we'll
as open the windows and let in the
sunshine.
