An Address to
Her Classmates
BY MATTE CORRODI.

At the conclusion Of her address to
the audience Miss Corrodi turned T.
her classmates and addressed them as
follows:
Friends, one and all: We have fin
ished the course that has been given US,
and are now ready for a step forward
along the pathway of life. So far we
have come together, hand in hand, and
we have been looking forward to this
time as glad enc, forgetting that it
was going TO mean a time of parting.
Now we are suddenly forced to re.
member this feature, and in spite Of
our triumph, il makes us sad So
IN not going TO linger over the partin5
words.
TO the Superintendent and Board OF
Education, as well as TO our parents
and friends: | want 20 extend the
thanks Of the class for the privilege
we nave enjoyed here. We naturally
feel very grateful to those who have
made it possible for us TO come to this
particular school
To our principal and teachers, we
have much We would like to saw, but
that curious lump comes into cur
threats and we can are choked with un
spoken thoughts that keep back the
words However, you must all know
how deeply we appreciate the .ntercs-
taken in US, and can realize now much
.ve mean by the only words we can
find to say-God bless you!
Classmates, there is only one WORD
more, and the last one must be TO you
We shared our pleasures, our triumph
end cur few disappointments for So
long that we shall miss the ola compaE
ianship more than we now realize, when
We are too far apart to. enjoy il any
longer. Some of US may work together
in the future but for the most Of US I
s,ol IL in indeed the parting.
Let US as we part pledge ourselves
= remember al the true AID lofty aims
that have been born in Us in our work
together here, and make cur lives such
as pride shall bring to our school and
cause our instructors, everyone of them
to be justly proud to remember that
they had the task Of teaching Us at
least TO begin TO live.

most competent men available be placed
in charge of this work. During a part
of the year the roads are impossible due
to the lack of drainage If good roads
are to be maintained proper drainage is
absolutely necessary. Besides there are
many acres known as marsh land that
could be converted into fertile fields, if
properly drained.
Our parish is blessed with the most
fertile land in the world and our climate
is unsurpassed. When our public schools
shall be raised to a standard of excel.
lence equal to the best, when our parish
can be traversed from end to end on
good roads, properly drained, when more
conditions of farm life shall
be maintained, then, indeed, will our
parish become what nature intended il
% be, the GARDEN SPOT OF THE
EARTH.

BEANS MAY BE
DRIED FOR FOOD

Beans growers who plant bush beans
for shipment as Snaps" to. the north.
ern markets are urged to save the top
crop OF pods for dry beans in the event
shat the prices for the "snaps" fall
below a paving basis. Enough of the
dry beans should be put aside for plata,
ing during the early part Of August in
order TO produce d fall crop of seed for
use the following spring. This will
mean a saving in the cost Of the spring
seed,which are usually purchased from
dealers, and the production of clean
seed that will give crop free of the
pod spot disease. The remainder of
the beans may be dried in the sun,
treated okill the weevil, and scored
for winter consumption.
BY carrying ont these suggestions
bean growers will save cash, avoid the
pod spot disease and provide a highly
nutritious food.-G. L. Ticbout, Horti.

THE GREATEST NEEDS
OF VERMILION PARISH
BY HILDA HEBERT.

The needs of Vermilion Parish are as
numerous as the sands of the sea, but
lack of time will permit the discussion
Of only a few of the most important
which tend to promote the progress and
advancement of this parish. These
main needs are more education, better
methods of farming and good roads and
drainage.
Vermilion has always been pointed
out as the most illiterate parish in the
state. There are thousands of children
passing into manhood and womanhood,
who cannot read and write; children
who are growing up in absolute litter
acv. Every illiterate man is a living
record Of wasted capabilities, walking
disgrace, and a possible menace to the
parish that has failed to provide for mis-
mental development. Every child that
grows into manhood less thoroughly
.rained than the mass of his fellows, is
hGr1cned with handicap which only
the strongest and best are able to shake
Of.
The great mess Of children who are
opt out Of scohol, who attend only fits
1od starts, who have chance TO go to
school only four or five months out of
the year, will live and die, if not illit-
crate, at least, poorly trained men and
women. We are wasting the most prec-
lous material on earth-the life and
51rce Of human beings-when we fail
~ give the children fair start in life
There are numerous defects in the
present school system due largely 70
lack of school funds. First the children
ere entitled to fair chance in life and
until they are given school terms Of
sufficient length, Vermilicn is not giving
them this Seven months is not a rea.
sonable length for any child, especially
IL this parish where the majority Of the
children are French and must he taught
20 speak English before other results
can be accomplished, again more teach.
ers are needed for the schools of Yer
million, especially, since the compulsory
o7ucation law has been passed. Chill
Zen are now crowding the school rooms
erd are being taught BIZ the same mum
Der of teachers as heretofore. Wha,
-esults can be expected It is an inius-
ice to the children ard such conditions
should be remedied.
Every farmer should be interested IN
the education Of his children. Thev
should work together and help 10 i'm
prove the citizenship Of Vermilion, not
by beginning state wide campaigns for
louge. terms, or compulsory attendance,
~ better courses Of study, but he should
get busy and see that his own schools
run q reasonable length Of time, that
sll the children Of the district 90 10
school. and that they ere taught by
good teachers who have the interes: o.
the community at heart.
The second need is better methods Of
farming aad higher standards Of farm
life. That the farm is the cornerstone
of all prosperity is q tgits but trps say

Sour Stomach.

This is a mild form of indigestion. II
is usually brought on by eating too rap
idly or too much, or of food not suited
to your digestive organs. If you will
eat slowly, masticatc your food thor
oughly, eat but little meat and none at
all for supper, you will more than likely
avoid the sour stomach without taking
any medicine whatever. When you have
sour stomach take one of Chamberlain s
Tablets to aid digestion. Obtainable
