/" SCHOOL NEWS 4

The Bogalusa city schools reopened
on Monday, November 10, with a
record-breaking attendance. The High
School is at work in full force. Only
a few names were marked from the
class rolls, a circumstance which is
very gratifying to the faculty because
it realizes that during these days of
high salaries it must be that the boys
and girls are convinced that they
cannot hope to be the greatest citi-
.zens of America if they do not seize
every educational opportunity. Sew
eral new pupils were enrolled and
the greatest question which confronts
the teachers now is not how they
shall be kept interested, but how they
can be comfortably seated. If our
number increases more and our seat
ing capacity remains the same, it
seems the only course left to us will
be to adopt the Chinese method of
teaching.
The old proverb: "Tis an i'll wind
that blows nobody good" has been
proved, indeed, in the recent cpl
demie, for it seems as if nothing
could have awakened the children so
effectively to the fact that the path
of knowledge has some roses scat
tered among its thorns. Children
who at the time of suspension, about
six weeks ago, looked on school as a
veritable bugaboo have come back
with renewed zeal and have set them
selves eagerly to work. One young
ster voiced the feeling of the High
School that some sort of manifesto
ton of joy was in order when he ex-
claimed: ''Hurrah for Wilson" He
evidently thought that our President
was responsible for the raising of
the quarantine.
Fortunately, we reassembled in
time to put a plum into the War
Work pie. TIE school children and
teachers of E,galusa were asked to
raise $500 in this campaign, and
there is no doubt but what we shall
go gloriously over the top with the
other forces of this city in spite of
the fact that some of the teachers
had subscribed through other agents,
and several of the girls and boys
through the Camp Fire Girls and Boy
Scout organizations.
We are striving to make this red
letter year in the history of the b.
galusa schools. In the High School
such equipment has been added to
every department as to place your
boy and girl in a school which ranks
among the foremost of the state. Let
US make it better every day through
the hearty cooperation of the town
and parents IN all that we are trying
to do. aEhE

Washington, June 19.-Mr. Colby
said he appeared at the request oi
Chairman Hurlay as a representative
of the shipping board. OF the pending
Jones prohibition amendment to the
emergency agriculture bill he said (:
I'VE believe that the effect of legis

Concluding arguments in favor of
prohibition were made by William J.
Bryan, who, replying to Mr.. Colby, de.
clared history showed labor is more
efficient without liquor than with it.
He quoted Premier Lloyd George as
saying that England was fighting Ger.
many, Austria and drink, with drink
as the greatest enemy.
While favoring total prohibition Mr..
Bryan said he believed a reasonable
time should be given for putting into
effect the amendment. In line with
that opinion he said he would recon.

HOSPITAL

Washington, June 19.-Sacking OF
the American hospital at Tabriz, Per
sia and seizure of the American and
British consulates there by invading
Turkish troops was reported to the
state department today by the Ameri'
can minister at Teheran.
II the report as it reached the min
lister is officially confirmed, the out.
RACES may be considered an act OF
war and settle the long pending ques.
tion of whether the Ottoman allies OF
Germany should be formally listed
among Americas enemies.
According to today's dispatch the
Turks sacked the hospital over the
protest of the Spanish consul in
charge as representative OF American
interests and in defiance of the Span
ish flag flying over the building.
The hospital at Tabriz is a Presby-
terian missionary institution establish
ed several years ago. For several
months the situation has been so SER
ious that the force has been greatly
reduced and a few days ago 1t was
reported to the state department that
the last American had gone. :,
There have been vigorous demands
in congress for declarations of state
Of war between the United States and
Turkey and Bulgaria. President VIII
son and the state department. how.

necessary or desirable, since these al
lies of Germany so far have not been
