SCOUTS AT WORK.

The New Iberia Boy Scouts
who are anxious to pass theil
/ tests have been meeting on Friday
nights to build camp fire, roast
their potatoes, cook their meat
and to use knife and hatche1
properly. At the last meeting
while the Scoutmaster was guard
ing the fire and the Scouts We're
gathering the wood there ap-
peared upon the scene a citizen
who took the Scoutmaster for a
hobo who was cooking his sup
per-" He asked many questions
and the right answer was given
so as to completely play out the
part. Finally there was the kind
offer made to come to the house
and cook your meal. "No! Thank
you! Scouts cook their meals al
ways in the open. "Upon the re-
turn of the Scouts to the camp
fire. hugh laugh was enjoyed
at the expense Of the kind heart
ed gentleman.
Later quite a number Of visi-
tors came to the campfire think
ing here they would find Gvpsie
Camp but to their utter disap-
pointment there was no one to
tell a fortune. Scouts do not deal
in Futures" and if they ever get
"love sick" thew usually drop
out of the movement. One who
has this fatal malady will not
last long on anv hike but will be
constantly longing to get back
to mediate on the one of whom
it is said:
"Her brow is like the snow-drift,
Her throat is like the swan,
Her face it is the fairest
That e'er the SUN shone on"
The Scoutmaster is urging ev-
cry Scout to complete the tests
for a second class Scout as he
wants each one to measure up to
these requirements. This can be
done by hard work and strong
will power.
When you're working wear
smile.
Getting "blue" is not worth
while,
Each command with promptness
heed.
Daily do kindly deed, J.
Always helping those in need.
Keep a heart of hope and cheer,
phil. downhill, persevere,
10 your best, do your best,
tbs of scouts the daily test,
Fill YOU reach the campfire s

The Beckham & O'Rear move
ment has fizzled out in Kentucky
and we hear nothing more of their
grent statewide campaign. From
what the Gazette has learned from
men who attended the speaking in
Western Kentucky. the campaign
was the biggest frost ever accorded
a speaking tour of any character.
Whatever the object of the combina-
tion it is evident that the scheme
failed of fulfllment. And right now
we predict that when the Democratic
statewide candidates read their
votes after the August primary
there will be some more astonish-
ment expressed among their ranks.
Whatever the status of the liquor
question, it is certainly not a politi-

REST THEATRE.

Today-"Captain Courtesy" starr ing Dustin Farnum in the title role
 is a stirring drama of the early days of California under Mexican misrule
 when the missions played such an important part and the padres were the teachers and leaders of the peo- ple. I.eonadro, q youth made an orphan by the Mexicans murdering his parents, makes VOW that he will avenge their death. To carry cut this thret he rides all over the country as an outlaw, robbing trav- elers and killing them when neces- sary, and committing such depreda- tions upon the Mexicans that they fear him as an, evil spirit. This messenger of death is so courteous 10 wc'Ien and children, the poor and the. helpless, that he wins the title of Captain Courtesy" This is an ouc- door picture played with the vigor and energy of great outdoor ac,ors.

Mauneaia In Sea SheIIs.

Chemical analysis of starfishes, sea urchins and crinoids, collected from all parts of the world, show that the skeletons of these animals contain much magnesia. The amount present Is found to vary with the temperature of the water, in which the creatures lived. The percentage of magEesia IS highest in those specimens that lived In tropical waters and lowest in forms from the icy seas af Greenland and the Antarctic, with regular grada- tion between which even shows the local effect of cold ocean currents upon lhe at the sea bottom. The !n> vestigations suggest that the skeie- tons of these animals have the compo- sition of the manganese limestone, or dolomite, and it is possible that they furnish clues not only as to the climatic conditions under which limestones are now formed, but also as to the temperatures of the oceans in different regions of the earth where. during different periods of geologic history, great deposits of magnetism limestone were formed.

Sea Mosa.

This term is popularly applied to any of the Polyzoa, which are com pound marine animals. several of which share a common horny skele'
 ton, or polyzoary, which is plant-like in form. According to the bureau of fisheries, several hundred thousand pounds of these skeletons have been imported annually from Europe, chief ly from France and Germany, for dec orative and millinery purposes, and the supply has now been practically cut off by the war. It therefore seems opportune to develop domestic in- dustry, as sea mosses. probably equal in quality to those heretofore import ed are said to be abundant .on OUT coasts, especially in New England. Those with large bushy fronds are the most valuable.
