In a very interesting account OF
school conditions in De Soto par.
ish in the last issue of the Mans.
field Enterprise almost all of one
page is devoted to the Carme
School and the following fine tribute
is paid to one of our Natchitoche>
girls that will be read with inter
est by her friends:
Miss Clarisse Fontenot, of Nat
chitoches, a graduate of the State
Normal School, and splendid
teacher, was placed in charge of
the same. The result was that
she soon had enrolled II pupils,
and although this was entirely too
many for one teacher. however
proficient, yet all of them made
splendid progress, and under her
splendid management the school
now easily ranks as one of the
very best in the parish.
If you will notice the illustra-
ton. you will observe that the
boys are using the split-log road
drag, and the result is that the
roads in the immediate vicinity of
the school house are kept in apple
pie order, strictly in accordance
with the conditions that surround
the entire school. The idea of
having two split-log drag teams in
the school was a good one, as the
surplus energies of the boys must
have an outlet, and if it is not
turned to athletics, or some other
harmless or useful exercise, they
are sure to get into mischief. 1t
is astonishing to see what interest
the youthful road makers soon
took in the. matter. and to hear
them discuss just how spIit-log
drag should be. made, how it
should be operated, and tell Just
what can be done with it. They
soon began TO talk about grades,
levels, drainage, ETC., and it was
soon ma lie evident that they knew
more about what constitutes a
good road, how to make one, and
how to keep it up, than their
daddies ever did know. When
these boys grow up, something
will surely be doing in this res
pect, as they will appreciate the |
value of good roads.
Miss Fontenot will be given an
assistant next term, and we pre-
dict that the Carmel school will be
in the front row on all occasions
from this time on.

Marble Windows.

Remarkably beautiful effects are Sc
cured by the use of marble as q
means Of transmitting light instead of
glass. This has been accomplished
by a new process which has been de-
vised by an engineer of Hamburg, w.
Engle. He has succeeded in making
plates of marble no more than three
millimeters in thickness and for the
use designated it is available up to
20 millimeters thick. The suitability
Of marble for this purpose was real
lied some time ago, but the difficulty
encountered was that Of securing the
marble in slabs of sufficient thinness
These plates permit of the passage of
a greater amount of light than frosted
glass does, and at the same time i'm
parts to the rays a much pleasanter
color. Most opal glass imparts to the
light an undesirable greenish tinge,
while the light which passes through
the marble has reddish violet which
is much pleasanter. After the marble
has been ground down to the desired
thickness it is subjected to an INNER
sion in oil under high pressure, and
the effects secured In this manner are
said the superior to those of stained
glass.

story:
Once upon a time, began. little
hole was born; and it looked around
to see where it should take up its
abode
1T first decided on a window, but a
man came straightway and put in a
new pane. 1t next choose a chair seat,
but the housewife sent for a Gamer,
and in a jiffy new seat was put in
the chair. The hole now selected a
baby's rattle, and the baby was SO
pleased that it began to tear the rat
tie to pieces, and the poor hole, half
crazed with fright, had just time to
escape. 1t threw itself, more dead
than alive, into the first thing that
came to hand, which happened to be
the sock of a suffragists husband.
There, at least, the hole seems to
have found a real home. Its peace
has not been troubled from the be-

RASH ON FACE SPREAD

Granton, Wis.-"My sister had q

the side OF her face and it ran up to
her ear. 1t commenced with a small
blotch Of pimples which turned into
kind OF rash and spread rapidly. 1t
itched and looked red and sore for
some time and slightly swelled. A
thin fluid dripped and ran from the
sores which looked like water. Then
the swelling would go down and it
would keep on spreading. 1t bothered
her during sleep and she would be
restless. 1t was kind of eczema.
She treated for some time and 1t
did not help her. 1t kept spreading

GET WIRELESS BY BEDsPRING
Eastern Amateur Experiments With a
Novel Form Of Antennae and
ls Successful.

Cyrus II. FlandreauX OF Peekskill,
N. Y, gives the following interesting
account of his experiments with a
novel form of antennae for wireless
telegraphy:
There are many things used as an
tennae to catch the mysterious cleo
tric wives which carry our wireless
messages through space, and l find
that the springs of my bed serve as
very efficient antennae. My room is
on the second story of my house, and
by using these springs as antennae l
can easily read the signals sent out
every night by the wireless station at
Sayville, l.. l., although they are not
by any means so loud as when | use
my outdoor antennae, which are 40
feet above ground. Go feet long and
consists of four wires on spreaders,
! the wires being two feet apart.
y THE bedspring antennae are best
for use with nearby high power sta
tions. Sayville, L. l., is about fifty
miles from Peekskill. With my out
door antennae l continually hear the
Arlington (Va.) naval station when it
sends out the correct time signals at
1850 a. m and at 9:55 p. m.; also
the weather reports. Brooklyn navy
