DANCING.

What is the "Shimmie?' You can
attend any dance and you'll see ten
or twenty different styles Of dane
ing. Stop any of the couples and
ask them what they are dancing and
the answer in each case will be the
same, yet the style of dancing will be
entirely different. Dancingq is one
of the most healthful recreations
known and goes back to the be-
ginning Of Greek civilization. Vul-
gar dancing should and must be cut
out, painful as may be the cutting
to some. But let not the prude take
JUNCTION to his soul at this outcry
against dancing. Even the old two
step can be made into a vulgar
dance.
"Shimmie'' is SYNONYMOUS of every
thing suggestive of vulgarity and a
travesty upon the terpsichorian pleas
ures. It strikes me that this style
of dancing so much enjoyed by our
boys and girls, and passively
acquiesced in by parents, is a new
form Of Bolshevism peculiarly OF
American origin. How far this social
evil will 60 I am not prepared to say.
But there is no gainsaying the fact,
the moral strength of the people
must b awakened to the danger OF
it's onward march. There are two
new dances out, which, we under
stand, are not vulgar, and it has de-
veloped into a case Of Good Bye
Shimmie, Hello French Frog" and
"Aeroplane Glide" II the Tickle
Toe" is danced properly it is not
vulgar. Any dance can b made vul-
gar-it all depends on the individu-
ais participating.
The waltz is one of the most grace
full of all dances and should be at the
head of the program in all social
functions in the future. The people
of this community and vicinity stand
for the infinite beauties and ryth-
mic step of the young and beautiful.

MARKET OUTLOOK GOOD FOR
SWEET POTATOES.

The recent meeting in New Orleans
of twenty-five sweet potato Gamers,
from eight Southern States, to formu-
late plans for an increased produc-
ton of sweet potatoes should be
highly encouraging to all growers Of
this valuable crop. According to the
canner,l i the gorWer is assured a good
price for all the sweet potatoes he
can pr rbduce. They say that the de-
mand for the product will not be
supplied. Culls can be used but such
potatoes should be shipped to the
factories as soon as possible after
digging.
''The sweet potato is one of Lou
isianas best money crops and its
production could be doubled, or even
trebled, without depressing the
market says M. Hull, assistant hor-
ticulturist, extension division, Lou
isiana State University, who is in
charge of the sweet potato work in
the state. "In fact, such increased
production would be a means Of en-
larging the markets. Although each
year witnesses an increased demand
for Southern sweet potatoes in the
markets of the North, East and West
the Gamers are planning an exten-
sive advertising campaign in those
sections. A method Of advertising
that has been followed with much
success by several Gamers is that of
placing booklets of receipts in all
shipments. This should be good
tip to the storage-house man."

Popular And Educational
Movement Supported by
Public Sentiment.
WANT ONE MILLION
ASSOCIATE MEMBERS
Boy Scouts of Baton Rouge
Give Demonstration In
Covington Monday.

Monday night the Boy Scouts Of
Baton Rouge will give a demonstra-
tiQn of Scout work, in Coy1ngton,
under the auspices Of the Association
of Commerce, endorsed by the
Knights of Columbus. The event
will attract unusual attention be-
cause of the fact that the associate
membership campaign Of the Scouts,
which has been so highly endorsed
and urged by President Wilson will
commence on that day. A member
ship will cost one dollar or more ac-
cording to the generosity of the con-
tributor. While the quota here will
be small and will no doubt be largely
the Scout movement
appeals SO strongly to America and
is of such national Importance in the
building of good citizenship that the
movement assumes the form of an
educational campaign that will aWak-
en- interest to an unusual degree.
Also there will he strong local in
LGI6SI, 1IOH lIlG aldCl IHdt lu0 oCOulS
wish to build a log ca bin home here,
for which funds must be raised. Part
of the funds will go toward the sup
port of the National Council and part
will go to the local organization.
The campaign is to secure one
million associate members for the
National Council of Boy Scouts of
America, thereby Strengthening the
organization and affording oppor-
tunity for greater supervisory
strength and giving more prominent
standing and effectiveness to local
organizations. New members are
wanted and boys over II years of
age are eligible. -s....
Committees will be appointed and
the campaign will be Systematically
carried out. Don't fail to help the
cause. The community benefit will
be great.
The Boy Scouts camped at Lewis
burg, week before last, and had a
splendid time.

MIR. AND MRS. e. r. MOSES CELE-
BRATE SILVER ANNIVERSARY.

The celebration Of the twenty-ffth
wedding anniversary of Mr.. and Mrs
Edward r. Moses, on June 9Th, was
of more than local interest and was
marked by full appreciation of the
sterling qualities of this popular
couple. For reason of mourning
nothing more than home celebra-
tion had been anticipated, but the re-
membranes of friends made the oc-
casion full of incidents that will bring
happy memories.
The local chapter of the Order of
the Eastern Star planned surprise
party and called to convey their con-
gratulations and presented Mr.. and
Mrs. Moses with a handsome gift of
silver. This was but one of the many
remembrances, which included pro-
fusion of flowers from other organi-
cations and friends.
On the occasion Of the marriage
Of Mr.. and MRS. Moses, the Syna-
gogue at St. Francisville, La, in
which they were wed, was decorated
with elder flowers, and with unusual
thoughtfulness many friends who
were cognizant of this fact sent bou-
quets of elder flowers to them on
their silver wedding anniversary.
The community extends its con-
gratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Moses
and wishes them many more years
of happy married life.
