Good Roads Congress in Chicago.

Chicago, Dec. Is. = Mayors.
highway officials, engineers and
road experts from all over the
United States and from sections
of Canada are gathered in Chica-
go for the Fifth American Good
Roads Congress.
A program of speech-making
on all phases of road building
has been arranged, and to illus
trate the modern methods, a spe-
cial boulevard twenty feet wide,
composed of all known varieties
of street paving, has been con-
structed around the amphi-thea-
ter at the Union stock yards,
where the convention will hold
forth.
Important among the problems
under consideration is the ques-
ton of national participation in
road building, for half a dozen
factions will try to secure the
adoption of different programs
for federal aid in one form or
another. Of these perhaps the
most important is a plan by
which a system of national roads
may be constructed, most of the
work to be done during periods
of Industrial depression. 1t is
maintained tn at the country
would materially benefit by the
construction of roadways at times
when the work is most needed
by workmen and when materials
can be purchased at a minimum
cost.
A contest is expected between
the advocates of national high
ways, such as the Lincoln high
way. and those who favor nation
al aid for local state roads. A
strong demand for national aid
is heard in some States, but in

Any article of food meeting
the requirements of the United
States amendment of March,
1913. to the Food and Drugs Act,
No. 154. regarding statements of
weight. measure or count, will
also meet the requirements of
the Louisiana law.
Packages containing less than
two avoirdupois ounces, or less
than one fluid ounce. or fewer
than six units of food, shall be
exempt from marking.
The State Board of Health has
been charged with the enforce
ment of the act.
The law if strictly enforced
will put a stop to under weight
or under measure selling of food.
1t will be of especial benefit to
the consumer, and on that ac-
count he should give his encour-
agement to its strict enforce
ment.
1t requires not only the mark
ing of sealed package goods, but
all food sold across the counter.
In the latter instance, conspicu-
Gus marking in pencil will let the
customer know just the quantity
bought. 1t should encourage
buying in weight and measure,
and also encourage the use of
scales and measures in the home.
It's to be hoped that the man.
ufacturer, jobber and retailer
will make immediate effort to
come within the law.
Further information as to the
qlirements of the new act can be
obtained from the State Board
of Health.

Deer Season Extended to Jan. 2, 1915.
New Orleans, Dec. IL. The
Conservation Commission of LOU
isiana at its meeting on Thurs
day, Dec. 10, passed a resolution
extending the season for the kill
ing of deer until Jan. 2. 1915.
In taking this action the Con-
servation Commission desires to
call attention to the fact that the
open season for the killing of
deer will be re-adjusted before
the beginning of another hunting
season. The Commission had
concluded that the present date
as fixed by the Commission is un-
satisfactory. in so far as the sea-
son opens too soon to give proper
protection to the young fawns
and doe, allowing them to be
caught before they are sufficient
ly able to protect themselves. In
extending the present season to
January 2 the Commission asks
the cooperation of the sportmen
in bringing about a stricter OBJ
servance of the laws for the pro-
lection of deer and their cooper
alton in bringing the season to a
close at the date now fixed.
The Commission is determined
to give a greater protection to

L. Guilbeau, Supervisor of Agri-
cultural Departments.

/
cultural Departments.
Mr.. Guilbeau departed from
his subject to give vigorous
rap to the principals for what he
took to be an attempt by some of
the principals to depreciate the
efforts being made by the agri-
cultural high schools. He re-
minded them that the farmer
had put up the money that had
made our excellent literary
schools possible, and that now
there seemed to be a disposition
to belittle, if not to actually OPP
pose, his getting something for
himself and his boys. Am to
understand" said Mr.. Guilbeau,
that it is all right for the farm
err to educate doctors, lawyers
and bankers. but wrong for him
to build schools for his own
boys? Give us the magnificent
equipment that you have for
your literary schools and we will
m Ike you ashamed of your
selves" He attributed the in
different success of the agaicul-
tural schools to three causes,
namely: lack of proper equip
ment, the inefficiency or actual
laziness of the agriculturist in
charge. or the principal is out of
sympathy with the a gricultural
department, and therefore fails
to give it his support and coop
Grafton.
Mr.. Guilteau ended by stating
the supreme Importance of the
agriculturalSm ovement and urged
all the principals. whether they
were the heads of agricultural
high schools or not, to give the
their earnest support.
The hearty applause that fol-
lowed this earnest and stirring
speech showed that the cause of
agriculture had only friends in
that convention of school princi-
pals. The speakers. whose re-
marks had called forth this tell
ing speech, fastened to assure
Mr.. Guilbeau that their remarks
were directed against some of
the methods and not against the
agricultural movement.
A general discussion of the
high schools in relation to the
elementary schools of the parish"
was had, the object of which
was to find some way to make
the high schools more useful to
the parish generally.
Committees were appointed to
tabulate thu recommendations
made by the principals and to
gather information from other
the full report to be SUBJ
mitted to the teachers at the
next State teachers convention.

Cutting the Dead Timber Out of the
Course of Study.
On Thursday of last week the
principals of the State high
schools met in Baton Rouge for
a two days conference, pursuant
to call issued by State High
School Inspector c. A. Ives.
Since the public has a primary
interest in these meetings, as
their sole aim is to make our
public schools more efficient, a
short report of the conference
may not be out of order.
Thursday morning 10 o'clock.
Introductory remarks by c. A.
Ives, State High School Inspec-
tor.
Mr.. Ives said that 10 the main
the high schools of the State
were doing good work, but that
the work could be improved. To
this end he urged the high school
principals to give more time and
attention to the elementary de-
partments. He pointed out that
the greater loss of time and eff
fort is in the elementary depart
ment, between the primary and
the high school. That to get the
best results in these grades, the
forth to the seventh, both inclu-
sive, it was necessary to so ar
range the programs as to avoid
the duplication and repetition
generally prevalent in thes e
grades. To do this a careful re-
view of the texts in the hands
of the teachers and pupils is
necessary, emitting such material
as may be eliminated without
loss to the student. What elm
nation are to be made it is the
of this conference to
determine.
Continuing Mr.. Ives said that
usually the principal was one
best qualified to outline this work,
owing to his superior qualifca-
ton, greater experience and
longer tenure of office; the work
to be done, of course. in commune
ton with the teacher in charge.
That the principals time is now
fully consumed is well known to
this department, but this work
must be done-the welfare of the
children demands it, the public
is insistant, the grade teacher
cannot be expected to do it un-
aided. You. the principals, must
this work in your sew
eral schools, the State has no
other agency to do it. After the
of Mr.. Ives introduce
tory remarks the regular pro-
gram as previously published by
the department was taken up.
DR.. Faut, High School 1nspec-
tor of Mississippi, delivered an
address in which he felicitated
the principals and State Depart
ment on the phenomenal growth
and success of the high schools
of Louisiana. But he warned
the schoolmen against taking too
much of the credit to themselves,
for, he said, your State legis-
lature in response to the demands
of your people has given you a
body of school laws as a basis
for your work that is excelled
by no State in the Uuion. We
have worked as hard in our State
mississippi as you, but without
obtaining the same results, be-
cause we have had no such legis-
lation as has made your success
possible.
