WHO EXCHANGED HATS
WITH THE PASTOR?

At the First Baptist church last
Sunday night someone, through, mis-
take, took Rev. JordaR's straw hat,
leaving theirs in its stead. The Rev.
would like very much to have his hat,
because his plans had included the
wearing of it next season. Rev. Jor-
dams hat had the name Saks-Birm-
ingham, stamped in it, while the hat
left in it's place bore a st. Louis
stamp and is asize too large for the
pastor.

PARISH SCHOOLS WILL
OPEN MONDAY MORNING.
Quota of Teachers Complete. Diff.
Guilty in Securing Board by Teach
ers May Delay Opening of Some.

Supt. w. P Annette, of the parish
schools was in Welsh Wednesday en-
route to Mayyille, where he went to
inspect some improvements made on
the school building there
In discussing the prospects for the
coming term of school Mr. Annette
called attention to circumstance that
may seriously hinder some of the
schools of the parish. That is the
difficulty teachers are experiencing in
securing board. He says that in sew
eTal instances where families have
promised him to board the teachers
when the teacher has written for con-
firmation and prices, they have been
met with either fiat refusal or
price so high s!that the teacher could
not afford to pay it.
AS Prof. Annette says: Somebody
has got to board the teacher or there
won't be any school," This is &C.
casion for mature reflection on the
part of residents of the school centers.
Somebody's got to feed the school
marin and sleep her too, and at
price that will leave at least part
of her meagre salary for clothes, bon
bons, etc.
The spirit behind education as evil
denced by the support lent to the
three tax elections within the parish
on September End lends an air of en-
thusiasm to the opening of school this
term. There is apparent great desire
among all classes>for higher education,
a hearty cooperation among patrons,
and teachers, that will work wonders
in the coming years.
Especially in Welsh will there be
great harmony in the schools con-
duct, because parents, teachers and
pupils all look forward to the big new
school which W illbe erected before
| the next year rolls around. They
will make the last days of the old
wood school house memorable, by dill.
gent work and hearty cooperation.
All Of the schools in the parish are
scheduled to open Monday morning,
September Sth.

Should Wifey Tell All?

SHOULD a woman tell her husband
everything?" asks a New Fork news
paper. No-hold on-let's not get in
to an argument over his thing-when
did an argument convince anybody
of anything of Importance? Let's
just reflect that If a woman fails to
tell her husband everything he is likely
to miss a lot of news hat never gets
into the newspapers. And if men
should fail to tell their wives pretty
much everything they dare tell, the
wives would miss a lot of gossip-ma-
terial. And if both adopt a policy Of
reserve domestic conversation may lag
a lot unless one or the other thinks
Of the happy expedient Of using topics
Of personal Importance for conversa-
tional purposes. Yes-this is a big
subject. Go ahead-talk about it for
q week if you like.

Mark TWain's Imagination.

Mark Twain had such a vivid inn
aginatiOn, such a brain for embroid-
cry, that it was a difficult task for him
to tell a straight story just as it hap
pened-he could make up one that
was so much better. We all know
that Albert Bigelow Paine, working on
the Mark Twain Life" found it
necessary to discard much of the au-
photographic material that Mark
Twain had written. Investigation,
talks with men still living who knew
the facts, simply proved that the tales
were not so. And Mark Twain was
no liar. He had a glorious, an almost
superhuman. imagination. AS he APP
preached threescore and ten he said,
as quoted in the Life" "When l was
younger I could remember anything,
whether it happened or not; but l
am getting old, and soon I shall re-
member only the latter"

A mind is disciplined, not by rea-

it has been using them right along,
and which are in the available kit Of
tools just as the carpenters saw and
chisel lie in his chest sharp and ready
for the grip of his hand Mental dis

DEAcoNs HAD LAST LAUGH
Good Story Of How Boston Merchant
Furnished New Haven Church
With eaptismal Service.

In one Of the older churches OF New
Haven there is a very quaint and beau
tiful baptismal service set Of silver
and no less quaint is the tale of how
b old church came by the same.
1t was during the year that York
town fell that the trustees OF he
church decided that the frame build
ing must have repairs and sent to Bos-
ton for six kegs Of nails. In course Of
time the kegs arrived on one of the
huge and slow-moving freight wagons
of the day and were duly delivered to
the carpenters.
Nails in those days were scarce and,
expensive, each n being the hand.
work of a blacksmith, and. as q n
quence of the methods followed il.
their manufacture, the smiths usually
turning out 100 or so on days when
they had nothing else in particular to
engage their attention, they were apt
to be very irregular in size and de-
gree of perfection. The delight of the
chief carpenter was, therefore. great
when, knocking in the head of one
keg, he found the nails of remarkably
uniform size and indicating the best
workmanship and material.
"Ye were in luck, deacon" he re-
marked to one of the trustees who had
been present to receipt for the six
kegs. for these be Spanish nails, made
at Toledo. Belize they were taken
from some Spanish ship by a sea
rover" He began to beat. in the head
of another keg and uttered an excla-
nation of establishment.
'"These bent nails, deacon!" he
gasped, his Eyes staring.
They We're not. The key was full to
the brim of Spanish silver dollars.
$50 I see, Master Thomas" the
deacon remarked quietly. Suppose
you head up that keg again, and | will
call a meeting of the trustees to dis.
cuSs this matter. We must write tC
the merchant of Boston concerning it.
The meeting of the trustees was
duly held that very day, and long and
earnest were the arguments h a took
place. What wos the proper course
for them to follow7 Should they sim
ply write the Boston merchant that

full of silver dollars? The church was
poor and the deacons were Connect
cut Yankees to the bone. 1t was most
obvious that the Boston merchant haC
obtained h key in some unusual man
ner and it was a logical assumption
that he had paid for it on a nail-value
basis, as he had sold it.
Then uprose one who might have
lone mighty things in finance had hi
lived a century and a half later.
Let us write" he said, ito this mer
chant of Boston town simply the fact.
that there was an error in shipment
And so they did.
In time came the merchants reply
He had bought the kegs from a pri
vateersman; that they were sold a!
bought and that no mistakes could b,
rectified."
And there is no doubt that the dea
cons chuckled somewhat dryly as the,
ordered the silver dollars of Spain
melted down and cast into that service
which can today be pointed out to tn
youth of New Haven as an example O
of. well, something.

J. r. Rogers has it, 81 guess
She raked to get a Yaka-Hula
dress"
