Arcadia High School Notes
(By Miss Helen Key

(By Miss Helen Key
Last Friday the Domestic Science
classes of the 10th and 18th grades
under the competent direction of Miss
Alys Bond served delightful lunch
con in most gracious manner. Miss
Eula Maude Capers of the 18th grade
was hostess to Mr.. Wagner, and Misses
Baker and Key the honored guests.
On New Years eve the Stag Club"
of the 18th grade entertained their
classmates and a few other friends to-
gether with Mr.. and Mrs. Wagner and
Miss Key. The out-of-town guests
were Miss Hargrove, of Tennessee, and
Miss Drew holland, of Shreveport. The
entertaining features of the evening
were a splendid movie" and delight
| full refreshments. As the last minutes
of the old year passed, the crowd en-
Ijoyed short interesting talks and music
|by many Of those present. The evening
Twas enjoyed and appreciated by every
one. We wish to take this occasion to
make mention Of the high esteem held
by all for the Honorable Stag Club. "
The entire student body is saddened
by the death of our eminent tOwnsman
Mr.. Albert Crowson. The faculty and
students wish to extend our sincerest
land most heart felt sympathy to the
family and to those members OF the
family, who are our fellow students,
namely; Hugh, of the llthgrade, Stella,
of the Sth grade and A. l.. Of the 9th
grade.
On Tuesday JAN, 6, the Domestic
Science classes of the 10th and 18th
grades, served luncheon to the entire
Parish School Board Supt. E. H. Fish
er, Hon. w. D. Golf, G. l.. Wren and
Mr.. j. P. Wagner. Miss Bond is
surely putting into actual practice the
idea of the school being a social cen,
lter We are quite sure that all the
quests at the two luncheons recently
served will speak loudly the praises
of the Domestic Science Department OF
the Arcadia High School under the
able direction of Miss Alys Bond.

LESS THAN 10000 BALES
GINNED IN PARISH FOR YEAR

There were S.603 bales Of cotton,
counting round as half bales, ginned
in Rieuville Parish from the crop OF
1919 prior to Dec Is, 1919 as compared
with 14.74O bales ginned to Dec. Is,
1918. Thus it will be seen that the
1919crop was little more than half the
crop of 1913. OF the total number OF
bales ginned, 3,G62 were marketed al
Arcadia. according to Horace Johnson
manager of the Arcadia Warehouse Co
and weigher. This speaks pretty wei
for Arcadia as a market.

HONORED CITIZEN PASSES
AWAY IN SANITARIUM
(By Mrs. ID. f. BROWN


A feeling of universal sorrow was
manifested by this community on
learning Of the death Of one of our

fully, leaving his friends and loved
ones hopeful of rapid recovery, when
sudden Developments for the worse
took place and death quickly followed
Mr.. Crowson possessed one Of
those strong personalities that we can
not connect with death and it is in
deed hard to realize that he has passed
away. Just in the prime of life, with
a large and interesting family around
him, the love and esteem of his friends
life offered much but we are again re,
minded that "In the midst of life, we
are in death"
Mr.. CrOwS0n, during his terms OF
office as Clerk of Court Of Bienvillt

this Office, he has held various position
of responsibility and has reflected
credit to every position. His life ha
been marked by spirit of progress
love for humanity, and a broad in

an honored member of the local schOO
board, Mason of the 32nd degree;
member since childhood Of the NJ. I

The self feeder will not save all the

INSULT ADDED

GERMANS, CLAIM
Apology y to France for

Salute Was Not in Best

BY PARKE BROWN
Cable to Great Falls Daily Tribune
and Chicago Tribune.

Berlin, July 24-Germany's "apol
ogy" to France in front Of the French
embassy, Berlin, was more than an apol-
ogy and it was defiance The enforced
salute BY one company of the reiehswehr
to the French flag over the embassy had
in it nothing of sorrow or regret for the
Insult of July IA, when a German stole
the tri color from the embassy.
The apology only added to the pre-
vious insult. Officially the German
troops in full dress uniform were sup
posed to march to the front of the
French embassy and present arms while
their company commander saluted. The
company appeared in fatigue uniforms
bearing the stains of work.
The salute was not in the best Prus-
sian manner. but was perfunctory. and
then the company marched down Inter

The song was taken up By great
crowds of Germans held back behind the

Cnter den Linden, from the Branden-

flanked by small squads of German po

points of vantage, not used since the last

yond the Brandenburg gate on one side
and beyond Wilhelmstrasse on the other.
No civilians were allowed in the space
over the French embassy was bare. At
l o'clock a dirty looking company OF
reichswehr in column of squads swung
into Inter den Linden from Wilhelm
strasse, marching silently past the
French embassy toward the Branden-
burg gate behind which German crowds
hooted and hissed.
Apology Was "UnofficiaI.'
Germans In the crowd pointed to the
soiled uniforms and work caps Of the
soldiers and said the apology was ''un-
official because the regulations for such
cases demanded patent leather spiked
helmets and full dress uniforms.

sitors during the last hard winter spent
their weeks within the Ring district and
saw only the former.
Summer, of course, has taken the
depth out of some of Yienna"s horrors.
But poverty, sickness and starvation re-
main. The four most impressive sights
of the winter were:
The march of the 10000 into the
Wiener Wald to cut wood for heating
their homes.
The departure Of thousands of child
rem for foreign countries where they
would' be fed for few months
Prof. Pirquet's children's clinic.
The American food distribution and
welfare work.

Vienna's famous forest was perhaps
the saddest sight Of modern time, bat

the blind in the rain and the cold" could
be seen in the open The departure of
the children to foreign lands is some
thing American mothers can best apA
preciate.

should be made with the foreknowIedge
that Vienna has hospital Accommodations

children in the city, the worst cases only
being treated there. the other two
thirds remaining in their squalid homes
