Miss Whitaker wishes us to an
nounce that the Boys and Girls
Short Course will be held in Bator
Rouge August 1917 inclusive. This
course Is open only to those children
who have won scholarships on club
work, in parishes where there are
Farm and Home Demonstration
agents. These restrictions are made
in order that only those may attend
who are best qualified to benefit by
the course.
On request Of our local Home Dem
onstration agent, the School Board
awarded two scholarships on the work
in 1918, and these have been awarded
again for the present year. Miss Nal
lie Jordon won the scholarship in
canning and Master James Meginn.

poultry work the past year.
In the early history of the work.
this course was held in the early part
of the year Immediately following the
winning of the scholarships by the
club members. But the work has
grown so that it is necessary to wait
till the entire University campus can
be requisitioned for the accomoda-
ton Of these enthusiastic and de-
serving members.

17T1HE much discussed visit of the
Prince of Wales is now an accom-
& plished fact And democratic
though we are as nation, we still feel
quite a bit of, thrill and awe of royalty
a combination, perhaps, that is really
curiosity, says a writer in the Houston
Post: At any rate. TO be real honest,
all of us would like TO be of the favored
few who will have the privilege of meet
ing the prince. For he is said to be
most likable young man, and not at all
stiff and prim. He likes the American
dances-lets hope he hasn't seen all we
have-and he loves a jazz band. The
entertainment committees. of course,
have all such things in charge, but we
hope they will give him at least one
jazz party.
Apropos of his visit, there is delight
full little anecdote of the other Prince
of Wales visit, told recently at dinner
bv a we'll known Houston woman whose
husband was a student at Harvard at
that time and was one of the participants
in the frolic
A rood many years ago the Prince OF
wales the late King Eowar-, VINO was
the grandfather of the present prince,
paid visit to this country. This prince
was very elegant, very c.ourtly, and, on,
quite royali He was lavishly entertainer
and many are the stories told of his visit
In those DAYS we were not quite so dem
ocratic. and everything was done in
grand manner BETTING the station of the
distinguished guest. Among other func-
tions'' was a very stately anG proper re
ception at Harvard. The students were
requested to wear Prince Albert coats
which. by the way. took their name from
Albert Edward, Prince of Wales-and SILK
hats. All did SO and the reception
passed off beautifully When the royal
guest had gone and the coast was clear,
the boys had huge game OF tootoah
with the hats.
