HUNDREDS OF WILD GEESE
INVADE CITY SUNDAY NIGHT

Hundreds of wild geese were ii
Bogalusa Sunday night and are re-
ported in every section of the city.
it is stated by those in position to
know about the presence of the geese
that in their pilgrimage to the South
they arrived here after dark and
were blinded by the electric lights
and remained until daylight flying in
a circle. Several persons who en-
10Y hunting the geese could hardly
resist the temptation to try and kill
few, but no one is reported to
have shot at them.

Clothing

All clothes should be taken care of
as Systematically as possible, as their
period of usefulness depends entirely
on the way they arc treated.
Lingerie and washable waists and
dresses should be mended before they
go to the laundry a small hole will
become a large one in washing, and
not only is the work of mending
doubled but the injury to the garment
is frequently irreparable.
Woolen Clothes II Dresses, Suits,
coats, skirts, etc, should be brushed
regularly and watched closely for
such small matters as loose buttons,
frayed skirt braids, missing hooks and
eyes and soiled chemisettes or yokes.
Coats should never be left lying care
lessly over chairs, and should never
be hung up by the collar or armhole.
They should be kept on hangers when
they are not in use so that their neck
and shoulders will not lose their
shape.
Dresses and waists should also be
kept on hangers, and if they are made
of light perishable materials they
should tie slipped into great bags of
silkoline to keep them from the dust.
The bag should be as long as the
waist or dress
If one has plenty of closet room, it
is much better TO keep ones evening
dresses hanging up in bags than to lay
them in chests or drawers, where they
cannot fail to become badly wrinkled.
Skirts should not be kept on wood
en- hangers, as they are likely to be-
come stretched at the hips. Small
strips of braid or ribbon should he
sewed inside the waistband of each
skirt, one on each side, and an equal
distance apart. The skirt should be
hung by these hangers on two hooks
placed just far enough apart to keep
the belt taut
To Clean Woolen Goods The
simplest method is washing in warm
water and soap bark Get ten cents
worth of soap bark and pour over it
two quarts of boiling water. Let it

F. H. N. SOCIAL CENTER

The Woman's Building of the Hays
Normal is the largest of its kind in
the United States, to be devoted sole
ly to the social and home use of the
girls of a college. This building has
recreation room, which with its bal
comics is large enough to be the cen
ter of all school affairs of a social
nature. The recreation room is
equipped with davenports, sofas, large
easy chairs and tables; a piano, a
Nictrola and a rack of magazines af-
ford pleasant means of entertain
ment for the girls. In addition to
this main room there is a room equip
ped with a sewing machine and a
dress form, ironing boards, an electric
iron and running water; this room is
in almost constant use by girls max
ing new garments, repairing or re-
modelling articles of apparel, or wash
ing out and pressing pieces.
There is a kitchen supplied with an
electric stove, sinks, dishes and cook
ing utensils. Upstairs, there is a
pleasant little room where the girl
who feels i'll, or wishes to be alone,
may rest or read.
The Dean of Women has her Office
on the ground floor, and she may be
found there at any time from eight
until six, except during the noon hour.
She is the faculty supervisor of any
school activities which take place in
the building. In addition, she has as
her duties the overseeing of the phys
ical and moral welfare OF the girls of
the school; she sees that the students
are properly fed through the medium
of the school cafeteria; she finds work
for the girl who needs it, or girl for
the work which needs her; she calls
on girls who are Ill, and sees that they
are well cared for; she grants permits.
and excuses; IN short, she makes it
her business to see that the social and
home life of the girls of the college
shall be kept on that plane which will
tend to develop them into the highest,
purest type of American womanhood,
and fit them to serve the people OF the
communities into which they go.

Raven a Solitary Bird

Like most Of his tribe, the raven
Is omnivorous; his dietary ranges
from "a worm to a whale" When-his
nest Is built beneath some OYerhang-
Ing rock you can often discover Its
position by the remains Of rabbit neat
ly laid in the short grass at the top
OF the cliff. In districts where food
is scarce the raven will attack with
out scruple a newly born lamb. The
raven has a passion for solitude He
will tolerate in the neighborhoOd Of
his nest not even his own offspring.
He drives them ruthlessly away as
soon as they are able TO shift for
themselves.

Hope springs;
Tho ills betide,

And the blithesOme birds wake sylvan lays.
And the winding winds bear mystic praise.
And the laughing leaves kiss finger tips.
And the blushing blooms lift ruby lips
Tho greed may sneer;
Love gives:
Tho doubt may jeer.
God lives.
Should dark be night.
Day Soon;
Should earth be white,
Comes June;
And the regnant rays shall rule the land
And the romping rills give mirth command.
Andsthe wooing woods know bliss supreme
And the winning world make lfea dream;
Should Storm be loud.
Love riffs:
Should heart be bowed.
