One Hundred and Twenty Pupils En-
roll First Day and More *
pected Shortly

The Morrow station junior high
school opened Monday Of last week,
September 19, with an initial enroll
ment of one hundred and twenty pu-
pills and this number will be added
to very shortly, at least thirty more
children being expected to sign the
rolls of that educational institution
within a few weeks.
The school is now domiciled in
magnificent six-room brick building,
recently erected. The taxpayers of
the Morrow school district voted TO
tax themselves for the purpose of
raising the funds needed to erect the
new building. It is a credit to the
community and will be ample for the
needs Of Morrow and neighborhood
for some years. Five teachers were
on hand at the opening of the school
and another was expected to report
this past Monday. and this teaching
force will handle the large enrolment
for the current session.

The harness races on the Wallior

ed but the contests went against the

the fact that the previous Sunday the
local horses clesnsd up things at Able
Vile. The visitors came here and
won both races and the two fat pur-
ges offered. There wasn't much bett-
ing though it is stated the Abbeville
folks could have won lot Of money
but they we're leery about betting on
their horses because they had been
beaten the Sunday before. The wea-
ther was propitious for the sport and
refreshing breezes started in the
early afternoon which made the tenn
Derature more comfortable. The vet
eran driver, o. Jeter Stokes. once a
resident of this city, drove the Alb

been made to accommodate the two
animals without discomfort or posi-

.SCHELL ROAD MAP
PUBLISHED SUNDAY
NEW ORLEANS TlMEs-PicAYUNE
PRINTS LARGE FAC-SIMILE OF
sT. LANDRIAN's PLAN

The New Orleans Times-Picayune
OF last Sunday printed a large sige
map of the state road system pro-
posed by the plan of Representative
n Franklin schen of st. Landry par
ish. This map, or counterpart Of it,
was exhibited by Mr.. schen at the big
east-and-west highwas leeting held
in this city faw weeks ago.
The plan connects up every court
house town in the state with a mod
ern hard-surfaced road and the entire
state fairly gridironed by a network
of roadways, showing that much
thought and foresight as to future
needs was used in figuring out the
places that woud demand more high
wavs than would other communities
where the population is not so dense.
AS the south half of the state is more
densely populated than the north
half. naturally there are more high
ways and connecting links, though the
north half shows up splendidly, too.
Several main highway travers that
section. a few OF which run south
into this section while others run
east and west and do not touch any
part Of the south half.
OpeIousas is a center Of highways
according to the Schell map, there
being the Pershing running north
and south, the east-and-west, one run
ming southeast to Church Point and
Crowley. to be known as the Missis'
sfppi Scenic highway, and one north
west to Vile Platte, Chicot, Pine
Prairie. Oakdae and to DeRidder.
The schell plan is comprehensive
and Judging from recent reports from
Baton Rouge is being very favorably
received by large element Of sena
tors and representatives in the state
legislature.

CAMPAIGN ON FOR

BOYS-GIRLS CLUBS
Last Week Was Poultry cuIIins Week
and Demonstration Agent Assisted
by, Expert

During last week Miss Ida Dowell,
home demonstration agent for st.
Landry parish, assisted by an expert
from the extension. division Of the
Louisiana State University, visited
several points in the parish and gave
demonstrations in the art of culling
flocks Of poultry, showing the necces-
,sity OF such work if poultry raisers
are to establish such flOcks as will
be great egg-producers and return a
fair profit to their owners above the
cost of feed. Much benefit is expected
to arise from the demonstrations and
quite a number Of poultry raisers OF
the parish caught the idea and will
follow the instructions given them.
This week the campaign to increase
the membership of the boys and girls
Agricultural clubs throughout the
state is under way, and the St. Ian
dry agent is busy on the Job and viii
endeavor by all means to arouse fur
ther interest in the work which IS
carried on through the public schools
Miss Dowel accompanied a delega
ton OF club members to the recent
short course held at the state univer
sity at Baton Rouge, and having
aroused considerable interest
among the boys and girls in the
schools she fully expects that the can
paign now under way will add materi

Complete Their Share IN
Record Time

They are making the dirt fly" on
the Pershing highway. Wtmberly &
Mcbride of Church Point, successful
bidders, started operations last week
on their end of the road, from Gar
land station south to Washington, and
already have sixteen teams and men
at work on the big job and hope to
establish a record as to time in which
the work will be completed They
will not only put in the grade but will
also construct the concrete bridges

I entire eight or nine miles, the balance
of the contract having been sub-let

ma Construction Works Of Opelousas
handling the middle stretch, from Gar
land north, and a third contractor hav
ing taken the north end, from the
parish line south.
The contractor who has the north
end also started in at Gold Dust and
is working to meet the Louisiana
Construction Works crew which start
ed ND its end this week, having sent
its tractor and grading machine to the
scene some days ago.
No better time of the year could
have been selected for the start OF
this big Job. The hot weather Of the
summer is about over and the cool,
dry days OF the fall will permit OF
putting in full time without suffering
inconvenience to man and team.
Along the entire route the nature
of the soil is varied. There are spots
where sand predominates and in
these spots work will be comparative
