Dear Mrs. Thompson: l have been
married seventeen years. My hus-
band and.I have ben separated three
years. He drank great deal and
was not good to me. l left him but
we have correspondent Of late. He
wants me to come and live with him
again. but can't make up my mind
to 60 although l still love him. What
must do, go to him or stay where
am and sue for a divorce, as l have
been thinking Of doing for some time?
Please tell me what would be the
best BLUES.
Do not go back to your husband
unless you are very sure that he has
stopped drinking. Write a letter to
the company he works for and see
what they have to say about his con-
duct. To go back to him now might
make 1t impossible for you to get a
divorce for some time in case you
wish 1t. After separation of three
years you would have no trouble get
ting one. Since you love your hus-
band divorce would be unwise. Be-
lieve in him and consent to return
when he can prove that he has not
touched liquor for year.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: am young
girl OF eighteen and I have been going
with boy two years my senior.
love this boy very much and he loves
me. but he gets very mad at me II
] talk to anyone else except him. as
he is a very jealous boy. He got
angry at me some time ago because
didn't 60 home with him. did not
tell him that was going home alone
or with some one for don't think
he has to know everything l do.
Now he won't speak to me when
we meet each other. love this boy
very much and want him to come
back to me, but will not speak first.
What shall do?
YOURS TRULY.
You cannot expect him to come back
II you do not speak to him. It is
your place to speak first. OF course
he should look pleasant enough so
that you would feel encouraged to
speak. 1t was not necessary to give
him a reason why you could not let
him take you home. But naturally
he drew the conclusion that some one
else did. An extremely jealous per-
son is never very satisfactory friend.

STATE COUNCIL OF
DEFENSE.

Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Octo
Der 23.-There seems to be some
confusion in the mind of the gen
eral public regarding the recent
ruling of the War Industries
Board, Washington, as to non war
construction, of which the State
Council of Defense has direct su
pervislon throughout Louisiana.
No new building of any kind, no
matter what the cost, can be
erected within the State until per
mission has been secured from the
PriOrities Division of the War In
dustries Board, Washington. In
order to secure this permission ap
pliCatiOn must first be filed with
the Council of Defense of the par
ish III which the proposed building
Is to be erected. After the Parish
Council passes upon the applica
ton it is sent to the State Council
and finally to the War Industries
Board. However, no actual con
struction can be started until a
permit is issued by the War In
dustries Board.
Repairs to existing buildings
where the aggregate cost does not
exceed $4,000, may be made with
out a permit, and farm buildings,
where the aggregate cost does not
exceed $1,000 and where such
buildings are actually needed for
agricultural purposes, may also be
erected without permit. How
ever, these are the only two excep
tions to this rule.
The main business of the United
States at the present time is the
winning of the war Any person
who proposes TO erect building
should ask himself whether or not
this building will aid directly in
winning the war and whether or
not it IS possible to postpone the
erection of the building until after
the war is over. Unless you can
show the Louisiana State Council
of Defense the necessity for your
building on these grounds, it Will
be impossible for you to secure a
permit until after the war is won.

SONG FOR ALL ABLETO HEAR
Trouble is That All People Have
Not Properly Attuned Them
selves TO Listen TO 1t.

"There is ever song some
where, my dear sings the poet.
Let us go little further and say
that there is ever song every
where-if we have the ear attuDed
to it.
The cultured musicians will tell
you that what the masters sing n
their strange and complex studies
Is the highest music to those who
are trained to catch it. But The
simple heart finds the harmony in
the simple, l0wley melodies.
What to the one class is purest
music is to the other meaningless
noise. If we just knew how to
listen We could love the soSgs Of
each. To some the jingle of mon
ey is the only music IN the world.
1t deafeDs them to all other sounds.
TO some the melody of their own
names spoken in praise is the only
music worth hearing. The words
of these seem to open inward.
The greedy and the vain shrink
their whole world to their own
size.
But those who can hear it there
is song in every phase of life.
Fortunate il he who can hear
more than very few-Exchange.

The idea that certain practical
work done. by boys and girls on
the farm should count as credits
IN the agricultural courses of the
rural elementary and high schools
is growing rapidly IN popularity
among educators. The basis for
this idea is the belief that the
farm may and should become the
logical laboratory for testing out
and putting into practice much
that is taught III the schools, and
that the schools by giving credit
for home work can and should en-
courage boys and girls to make
profits for themselves or to become
more directly helpful to their fami
lies.-Weekly News Letter.

recently been published For

used, and with good success.
they must be well dralned and
must be insulated so that the TEN
perature within the hives does not
fall below so degrees +. A side
hill is a good location for a special
bee cellar. 1t should be entirely
underground and the top covered
with a good insulating material
such as sawdust. The sides and
floor may be of concrete, or the
floor may be Of earth and the sides
of boards. A good height is 81
feet IN the clear, high enough to
allow the operator to work cOmfor

piled four deep. The cellar should
be kept dark. Remove the hives
to their summer stands in time for

The small toy and girl will meander
to school as usual on Monday next and
upon all the following Mondays of the
nine 'heatless" Mondays, unless the
Fuel Administrator again changes his
mind and issues another order to the
contrary.
On Friday last, cause unknown, an

libraries, ETC., and that all former or
ders to the contrary were annulled.
Following this order the Board of Ed

TIE DEATH RECORD.
ELISHA HARVEY.

ELISHA MANY r. l.
Elisha Harvey was born Nov. %
184l; diedJan 26, 1918, aged Is years, ,
months and days.
Mr.. Harvey SOphronia Thomp-
son il 1868 and they lived together mar
monously for about q half centdry,
when he was called to depart this life.
He was a veteran Of the Civil War
having joined the Federal army in 1861.
He brayely served his country for 3
years and 6 months.
AS a man in the community he will
be missed, as layman in the church,
faithful to his duty; and as a neigh
Dor to his friends Of great worth. He
y as posse. sad of many excellent quail
ties which we all would do well to emu
late. His personality was kindly dis
rosad to everybody that made his ac-
quaiutance. HIS straightforward
honesty in his business and daily lie
made him honored and esteemed where
ever he was known.
Mr.. Harvey was toSmodest TO seek
MS own welfare or ask for his own right
but was thoroughly capable in iudg-
ment in representing his district in
most any capacity.
He was a man that lived for the
better things Of life and to be ready for
the final call.
HIS kind, humorous and sunny dispo-
sition made him loved by old and young.
The young folks of his community
loved to sit and listen to him tell war
and hunting stories Of the pioneer days
and his adventures in the wilderness.
To the church he was loyal and con
tributed literally Of his substances, and
especially of late years supported its
claims with increased devotion.
He tried to do the right because it
only was honorable, and to do other
wise would be yielding to the baser
elements of man. He for one tried to
keep the golden rule and to receive wis
dom from the wise, and we believe if
he could speak to US would say that
the chief end of man Is to fear God and
keep his commandments.
Mr.. Harvey is survived by a wife and
seven children; four girls and three
boys, to mourn their loss.
