Class and School Notes

lt
Well, here we are at school again.
We thought we would be glad to get
back, but my, the lecture course that
preceded our lessons put us in mind
Of some unpleasant things, but we
shall do our best.
Many improvements have been made
in and around our school buildings.
The Domestic Science room boasts a
new sink, and in front of the school
building there is new walk and other
improvements such as paint will make.
That means, be more careful of the
furniture in the future.
Parents, please do not blame the
teachers when your children come
home with their grade cards marked
"Whispered too much" The teach
ers can't stand over your boy or gir
and see that they behave as they
should.
Didn't you enjoy the first number
of the lecture course? We did, but
never mind, there will be five numbers
anyway, the first one to be next Tues

OF Interest to Girls and
Women.


Alexandria, La. June | 1918.
To the Edit or:
May we ask you to publish the
following letter in the interest OF the
girls and women and the great cause
in which we are all concerned
Your favor will be greatly appre-
ciated.
As representative OF the War De-
partment Commission on War Camp
Community Work and Girls Work
we wish to call the atte ntion of the
people of your city to the grave
dangers facing women and girls who
come here. As is always the case
with cantonment towns, there has
been large number of girls and
women coming to Alexandria with
out vifible means of support, and
who are compelled to meet situa-
ations which are entirely new to
them. We should like to remind
your readers of these four things:
/. The housing situation in this
city is a very congested one. The
cost of rooms is very high as is also
the price of food.
2. There are practically no OPP
portunities for legitimate employ
ment.
3. Girls and women who are here
without any visible means of sup
port are arrested on a vagrancy
charge and sentenced to from Is to
80 days in the city Jail.
A. Under Ordinance 204 suspi-
cious women are confined for 30
days in the city Jail.
A large number of foolish and
vicious women have come to Alex
andria from the various towns in
your state and doubtless frem your
own town. We wish to warn moth.
ers of the improperly and danger
of permitting young girls to travel
alone to a cantonment city. May
we not emphasize to the parents
that even though they have every
confidence in their daughters, they
should not allow them to be ex.
posed to the pitfalls and tempta.
tions with which they are sure to
come in contact when they visit
Alexandria without a chaperon.
We should like to remind your
readers that we stand ready to co.
operate with them in any way and
if any of them come to Alexandris
to visit their boys, we hope they
will apply to the Information Blu
reau of the War Camp Community
Service Board, located in the City
Hall, where every assistance will bt
rendered them. Sincerely,
Leonard Parr, Rep. War Dept. Com
on Training Camp Activities.
Irene Shields, Director Girls Pro

From A Soldier Boy

Camp Beauregard, La, June -, is
From lonely soldier to the dear
people and relatives of Tishomingo
county. Dear friends. As | am very
lonely since | returned to camp and
found so many of my friends and
"buddies" gone | hardly know
what to do to pass away my time,
so | decided to drop you all few
lines to let you know ! am all o. k.
and arrived in camp on due time
and am not in the guard house, |
enjoyed my trip home very much.
Would have been delighted to have
met all you good people but as
only had a short time to spend
spent the most of it at home, as
you all know there is no place like
home. | don't think you will feel
offended because | didn't call to see
you for / would have enjoyed meet
ing with you all. Well, as | am a
new beginner | hardly know how to
start off my letter, but if it was a
command to squad right or for
ward march, / would know just
how to start. | had letter from
my friend John A. Williams yes
terday, He was alright and hav-
ing a jolly time He said he guess
ed we were having hard time
back here, and believe me he is a
good guesser. We 60 on guard ev-
cry other night and | won't begin
70 mention what we do when off
guard as | would never get it told.
Well boys, you that have to answer
your call soon, you had better be-
gin to learn to be fond of hard
ships for you will be very much
surprised and disappointed when
you get in camp, although we
have some enjoyment. We enjoy
hearing the bugle when it is twelve
o'clock for we know that the spuds.
beans and bull neck are waiting for
us, and believe me we enjoy get
ting to the mess hall for we know if
we are late we will be S. O. L.
which is soldier out of luck. My
friend Clayton A Grouse is S. O. l..
or was last night when the cork
flew out of a gas bottle and he got
his eyes full of gas. He was sent to
the hospital at once but think it
doubtful whether he will ever see
again as he is likely to
lose both eyes. He told me he was
afraid he would never see certain
girl around Iuka any more. Well,
| guess some of you would be glad
to know how Mrs. George Gilchrist
made her trip to camp. She mad e
it just fine but | advise any of you
to not put up at the central hotel in
Winfield, La. If you ever start out
here for ] have sores on me yet
from bed bug bites the night /
spent there. Before l close | want
to ask the prayers of all you good
people. 1t is very much like lit
tie song we boys sing. I'VE are
away down here by ourselves and
can't hear nobody pray" Remem-
Der us all in your prayers. l would
be glad to receive letters from any
of you people back there as it af-
fords us much plearure to receive
a few lines from old Mississippi.

If KIDNEYS And
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys
and Neutralize Irritating
Acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and ass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek. relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse: again, there is
difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really n of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa.
ter before breakfast, continue this for
two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine SO it no
longer is a source Of irritation to tho
bladder and urinary organs which
then act normally again.
a Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lthia.
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts II
splendid for kidneys and CAUSES -
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efer-
vescent lithia-water drink, which
quickly relieves bladder trouble.

Dakota, advises the dealers to substi-

objection is frequently made that
the stove n egg sizes of anthracite
are unsuited for consumption in base
burners" says Captain Baker. "Those
sizes of anthracite can be readily
broken with a hammer or other con-
ventent tool and made available for
use in such stoves. Under present con-
ditions, with the movement of anthra-
cite. eastern bituminous and North
Dakota Ignite far behind schedule
because Of labor conditions and the
influenza epidemic, everything posi-
BILE must be done to hurry shipments
OF anthracite into the state. Many
communities in the western part OF
the state have required unusual ton
nages Of eastern coal because Of the
inability of small neighboring wagon
mines to provide the usual supplies of
Ignite.
IF any retail coal dealer who has
outstanding untitled orders for nut
anthracite, immediate notice to that
effect should be given this Office and

JUSTICE BRUCE
HAS LEFT STATE
One of Best Liked Public
Officials Goes to
Minneapolis.

Bismarck, N. D., Dec. 3.-North Da-
kota, statesmen generally agree, has
seldom witnessed the departure of q
citizen with more regret than was ex-
perienced when Chief Justice Andrew
A. Bruce finally babe his associates of
many years farewell Saturday evening
and departed for Minneapolis to

Of none who have lived better nor
who have left a more definite impress
upon the life of the state,' declared a
member of the Burleigh county bar
in commenting upon Judge Bruce's
leaving.
In evidence of the esteem in which
the learned North Dakota jurist was
held legally "a number Of lawyers Of
Bismarck rendered Judge Bruce an
informal dinner at, a local hotel prior
to his departure. Among those pres
ent were Judge A. M. Christianson.
who has succeeded Judge Bruce as
chief justice of the North Dakota SUI
preme court, and Hon. w. l.. Nuessle,
judge of the Sixth district court.
Everyone who attended spoke feel
ingly of their personal friendship and
regard for the guest of honor and
express regret at his departure.
Judge Bruce was born in India. He
came to America a poor boy. In a
recent address before the American
Bar association at Syracuse, N. Y,
commenting upon the duty which
foster sons Of America w their
adopted mother, he referred to him
self as having come to this country a
pauper and as owing everything to
the, land of his adoption.
Judge Bruce's first profession was
that Of farm hand in Minnesota.
Through his mental labor he worked
his way through college and law
school, and he became prominent as a
practicing attorney in Illinois, where
he occupied important positions IN
der the state administration, prior to
being called to the University Of
North Dakota as dean of the law de-
partment. From this post he went to

he became recognized as an able
jurist and a legal authority
