TO OUR SUPERINTENDENT.

We, the class of 1921, In publishing
che Senior edition of the Jellico School
Eagle, dedicate this issue to our be-
loved Superintendent, T. A. Judd
Born and reared in the Blue Grass
State, we can say that in him the Old
State upholds it's reputation for the
production of thorough breds. He is
proud of the fact that he graduated
from Georgetown College and with all
of his loyalty spreads the fame of that
grand old institution of learning
Before coming to Jellico he was af-
filiated with some of the best schools
of this State. He also Taught two
years in Louisiana, where. to the sor.
row of Tennessee girls, he met lisa
belle"
After being discharged from the ar
my December, 1918 Professor Judd
came to Jellico. Through many vicis-
STUDIES and changes he alone has. re-
NAMED with us. We regret that he
is leaving US next year and we realize
that the profession is losing one of its
strongest men.
It would be impossible to give any
detailed account of his work and
achievements in this volume. The
most that we can say is that we appre
ciate to che fullest extent his con,
scientious effort, his true interest and
his Christian example We wish him
JOY in his new home and his new work,
and we pray that there may ever be
satisfaction in thought that in the
"Gem City of the Mountains" he has
sown seed that shall grow as the grain
of mustard of old.
Prof and Mrs. Judd leave Jellico
Saturday for Manghan, La, where
they will make their home Prof.
Judd has served JelIico we'll. He is a
clean, Christian gentleman and the
entire town regrets to see him co.

The Ball Games.

Two very interesting baseball games
were played on the Lindsey Wilson
hill last week, Tuesday and Thursday
afternoons
The first contest was Lebanon
against Columbia, all the players
being in trim, but the Lebanon boys
got ratified as the game progressed and
when it ended the home team had Is
scores to'its credit and Lebanon
Will Young pitched this game with
the exception of the first two innings
He was in fine trim and he famed out
the opponents as fast as they came to
the bat. The catching Of Alvin Lewis
and batting and field playing by the
entire home team were all that mana
ger Taylor could ask.
On Thursday afternoon the home
team went up against the "crack"
nine Of st Marys. This game drew
an immense crowd, and at o'clock
the batting starred. ST. Marys took
the lead, and up to the seventh inning
she had scores to her credit and Co.
lumbia 2. The remainder of the game
was Of special interest, as the home
team held down the visitors, and
when the contest closed the score
stood, St. Marys 5; Columbia, 4.
Simon Finn pitched this game and
Lewis caught. There was no change
made in the felders.
The st. Marys team is game, made
up Of splendid young men, who made
inviable regulations here.
There were many old ball players
present, and they say that it was the
most interesting game ever played on
the Lindsey. Wilson hill.

Bossier Glover Attracts Attention.

Mr.. e. s. Burt, Farm Demonstration
Agent for Bossier Parish, received
some time ago a letter of interest from
A. A. Ormsby, State Superintendent of
Agricultural Exhibits. The letter was
written while Mr.. Ormsby was in Mil
waukee. Wis, in attendance at an agri-
cultural show, and where there were
exhibits from many states. A brief
extract from the letter reads
8 Received your letter, and the clover
and other splendid material you sent
ME has surely been an attraction both
in Illinoise and Wisconsin. plan to
save all Of it here and send it to
Chicago, to he held there for display

1t should be of interest to all resi-
dents of the parish to know that the
exhibit sent in by MFR. Burt has
attracted SO much attention. But it
should, for Red River soil will produce
many products that excel. The clover
sent in was, by the way. from Mr.. A.
Curtis Plantation, in Ward One, and
from two plantations near Benton, the
Stnson place and Willow Bend.
