place him on the level with the dealer
SO far as knowledge Of prices Is con-
cerned, but unless the farmer has a
set Of scales available he cannot use
this knowledge.
An accurate set of small platform
scales should be a part of the farm
equipment, and every farm sale should
be referred to them. If mounted upon
rollers they can be moved from place
to place as their services are required.
If without rollers, they can be moved
In a wheelbarrow. They should be
kept In a building that Is as free from
dust and moisture as possible, and
should be tested with standard
weights at least once a year. In
some states the tests are made by
law by an official who makes the ad-
justment necessary to restore the scale
to balance, or, II this cannot be done,
condemns the apparatus and seals It
SO that 1t cannot be used again until
repaired.
Answers Most Purposes.
Such equipment will answer most
farm purposes. but larger set Of
scales is occasionally required to
weigh cattle, hogs, hay, or other ma.
terials too heavy or bulky to lift upon
the small platform. Very often a
merchant whose place Of business is
centrally located, or a farmer who
lives on a main road leading into town
finds It profitable investment to put
in q set Of pit scales for the use Of
farmers and others who are bringing
bulky material to market. When a
farmer knows that he can drive his
cattle or his loaded wagon upon the
platform of pit scales without going
out of his way, he will be less inclined
to lump of harmful Of hay or sell
his stock by the head. The owner Of
the scales receives a small fee for his
services and the farmer a signed
statement Of weight which is the basis
Of payment when he delivers his load
at the market or shipping yard.

ton perfected and a set Of rules put
into effect, the Constitutional COnven.
ton has cleared its decks for the Sc
rious business for which 1t is called
into existence-that Of writing a new
fundamental law for Louisiana.
Some Of the big issues that con-
front the delegates have begun to
show themselves. One Of these is
parish government reform. Two ordi.
nances on that SUBJECT were introduc.
ed recently, one by Mr.. Clinton OF
Tensas and one by Mr.. Hardtner of
LaSalle. Both ordinances provide for
commission government for parishes
and abolish police juries and school
boards. Mr.. Clinton's ordinance fol.
lows:
"All Of the business affairs of the
seven parishes, including public
schools, shall be governed by com.
mission composed Of three commits.
sioners, who shall be elected by the
duly qualified electors Of the parish.
"The commissioners shall be known
as the commissioner of finance, the
commissioner Of public work and prop.
erty, andthe commissioner OF educa'
ton.
"Thay shall hold office for a term
btpf four years and shall receive for
Sheir services such salary as may be
fixed by the General Assembly which
salary shall not be increased or dimin'
ished during their term of office.
"The General Assembly shall, by ap'
propriate legislation fix the qualifica'
tons, duties and compensation Of the
commissioners. which compensation
may be graded as between the various
parishes, and shall apportion the cost
Of maintaining the commission be-
tween the parish and school board"
Mr.. Hardtner's ordinance provides:
"T'hat the management and conduct
OF all parish affairs snail be delegated
70 three commissioners, elected at
large from each parish, such as par
ish, taxation, schools, roads, bridges,
drainage and assessments"
Introduction Of these two ordi'
nances has precipitated a fight at the
threshold Of the convention. Mr.,
Clinton and Mr.. Hardtner have re-
ceived assurances Of strong support
among the delegates and are fortying
themselves for the attack.
Prominent citizens Of the country
were invited to address the Constitu'
tional Convention in resolutions intro

GodolDsky Landed
BY Hoffman

At meeting Of the Music Study
club on Friday evening, at the White
Pelican hotel, so much enthusiasm
was manifested by the ladies present
in regard to bringing the world re-
nowned pianist, Leopold Godowsky,
that contract was signed with Miss
Alma Voedisch, representative Of the
International Concert bureau which
is managing Mr.. Godowsky's tours
and he will appear in concert in Kla-
math Falls. on Thursday evening
January 27th.
The ladies of the Music Study
club, wishing to make It possible for
everybody to avail themselves OF the
opportunity to hear this great artist,
have placed the price of tickets at
$3.50, throughout the house.
Mr.. Godowsky is n warm personal
friend of the other pianistic giant
Josef Hoffman,. In a recent issue OF
Vanity Fair, Josef Hoffman, writes
eleQuently about his friend and col
league. "A few days ago was asked,
why is II that everybody loves Co.
dowsky" and I answered. Because
his character is as true as gold, and
his art as pure as crystal-little Won
der that everyone who knows him
and his art. loves him"
With this happy combination Of
high personal and artistic qualities
Godowsky exerts a strong influence
upon his fellow-artistis.
4 doubt II there are many plan
lists today who have not learned
something from him; know that I
did, and I am thankful for It." II
Chopin is regarded as the spirit Of
piano composition, Godowsky repre-
sents the spirit Of pianistic express
sion, although his art aims still high
er, since he Is not only a reproduc-
tive artist, but creative one as well.
Hoffman, further says, mot only the
popular but sometimes even banal
melodies and musical thoughts turn
into poems Of bewitching beauty
when touched by his beautifying art
When we hear Godowsky play
we cannot help wondering whether
the composer himself ever dreamed
OF such beauties OF harmony and ex-
preston. as Godowsky imparts to
them. Though a small man in sta
ture, Godowsky Is a mnster in his
art"

THE STAR

Annabel was the T. N. T. daughter
Of a double-barrelled day dreamer
named Jim Cotton. Old Cotton had
bug that he could reform the
world. He couldn't even make his
daughter Annabel stop wearing one
piece bathing suits and doing real
one-man stunts. The old Tabbies of
her Dads Purity league were shock
ed at her. While they were holding
meeting to make the art societies
put b. V. DIS on the statues in the
parks, Annabel slipped away to the
old swimming pool. In her bathing
suit that left nothing to the imagina-
tion, she began some submarine
stunts that would make the German
navy turn green with envy. A lone
fisherman with plenty of bait-both
in can and bottle-was trying to get
up a Irritation with a suspicious bass.
Annabel, beneath the water, saw the
hook. and what she did to that lone
fisherman was plenty. The stunts
this human mermaid did made the
fish so jealous they left the stream.
