cast and the students, and many
of the teachers themselves, soon
fall into the stride of just having
good time. The foundation for
an education in the high school is
much more important and serious
than that.
When we were at War every
body worked in a spirit of cooper
alton and concentration toward
winning the war. We regarded
that as the one big thing to work
for, and talk for and fight for.
It's the only way. During school
term every ybody ought to keep in
mind the best interest of the stu
dents. To give them the proper
atmosphere for careful study,
and to aid them in thorough
work should be the aim of the
community. When a child or a
student fails the teachers are
blamed. When a high school
graduate takes the teachers ex.
animation and secures a third
grade or fails, We say the school
work was not thorough. But why
was it not thorough Nine cases
out of ten it's the community's
fault.
Whenever you present to the
minds of boys and girls Saturday
evening ''parties" on top of the
English and Mathematics of the
week, whenever you close the
days work on Chemistry and
philosophy with an automobile
excursion, whenever you offer
the rudiments and principals of
education as set forth in the text
books and as expounded by the
classroom teacher to the mind of
the student and then permit the
enchanting whisperings of the
"sweetheart" to the ear of that
student, it is needless to prophesy
what will become Of the English,
Chemistry and the education. 1t
won't mix.
Let's all get behind the school
at Franklinton, quit our "foolish.
ness" and try to help the student
body get down to work. There
will be ample time during holidays
for sports, frolics and sociables.

FrOlics Versus School Work

Will sociables, entertainments
and frolics in the community aid
or hinder effective and thorough
work in the schools of that com.
munity? This is a question that
should address itself to this and
any other community that is en-.
deavoring to maintain a good
school. Some may get the idea
that if the high school student
reaches his classes on time and
devotes an hour or two at night
toward the preparation of his les.

along from Monday till Friday, it
matters little what that student
does or how the time is employed
fro Friday till Monday. There
never was a more fatal error.
You may employ the best train.
ed teachers in the country, you
may have the most competent and
hard working principal in the
State, but unless the community
lends cooperation the money spent
to run the school had just about

the high school is concerned. If

LOUISIANA NATIONAL
GUARD.

Alexandria, La, Sept. T.
When the Louisiana National
Guard arrived at Camp Beaure-
gard the first of this week for
their annual encampment, they
found the Y. M. c. A. already
on the job with a building fitted
up for the comfort and conven-
fence of the members of the
Guard. Some weeks ago, after
announcement had been made of
the encampment, State Secre-
tary George D. Booth offered the
services of the Y to Colonel l..
A. Toombs, State Adjutant
General and Commander of the
camp, and the offer was readily
accepted, and Colonel Toombs
assigned an unused mess-hall to
the organization. This build
ing has been equipped in, a way
SIMILAR to that adopted for the
sY" huts during the war. There
is a piano. a photograph, plenty
Of free stationery with the name
of the camp and the familiar
red triangle. There is also a
full equipment Of indoor games.
The ~" program Of acticities
will be fully carried out during
the period of the camp. There
will be requent motion picture
shows together with entertain
ments provided by the talent
from among the men and from
Alexandria, SO that there need
be no fear Of dull evenings on
the part Of the men. There are,
of course, ample facilities for
letter writing and other pur-
poses.
One Of the most important
features Of the work will be the
attention given to recreation,
particularly in the form of
athletics. Mr.. A. X. Jones of
Baton Rouge, q member of the
Y staff who has had wide ex-
Derience in work of this sort, is
in charge of his feature and is
organizing base ball, basket ball
and other leagues as well as pro-
noting mass play of every con-
sort, the purpose being
10 give the men opportunity for
relaxation from the duties Of
instruction and drill, and at tlc |
same time to provide a type II
recreation that will be whole

HOW TO BAKE A FRUIT PIE.

Juicy fruit pies present unex-
pected difficulties to the home
cook owing to their tendency
to become s0ggy. Specialists
in the experimental kitchen of
the United States Department
of Agriculture have found, in
the course of participating cx.
periments, that if the UNDER
crust is pre-baked until slightly
brown, the pie will be much bet
ter. Another point brought out
in connection with pastry ma-
ing. especially in warm weather,
is that. speed in handling is an
important factor if the house.
