AUGUSTA LOCALS


When Christ came down from Galilee,
The flowers in His path, it's said,
Bowed each it's eager lovely head.
From the field and garden leaned to
see,
When Christ came down from Galilee.
And little pagan winds that pass
In joyous commerce with the grass,
That day bore incense unto Him
From every radiant, reverent rim
OF petalled beauty to the brirn.
White roses looked on Him and knew
Divine the sacrament of dew,
And as He passed. the passion-hower
Mourned for that far-off Purple Hour
When it should bloom on Calvary,
The symbol of His Agony.
And all the lwistful, wondrous while,
His Fathers flowers that know no
guile
Gave back to Him the Fathers smile,
And sweetly comforted was He
AS He came down from Galliee.

experience in a woman's life.
But let's not live in the dusty pages
of the past, neither in the sealed and
mystic leaves of the future, but in
the TODAY of our children.
| Almost every mother with her first
baby tells you confidentially that she
e is not going to permit her child to
attend public school on account of the
bad associations, etc. She has list
of objections at her tongues end.
She is planning either to teach her
child herself or have Miss SO-and-So
come in every day. But, usually, by
the time the firstbOrn is old enough
for school mother has lost her en-
! thusiasm washing diapers and making
aprons or the other little ones who
have appeared upon the scene. So.
i with a half regretful sigh, she takes
Johnnie to school and introduces him
to his teacher. Now about six years
have elapsed since she was so CONVEX
SAINT with the disadvantages of at
tending public school. Let's paint the
other picture. Just think what that
one interested parent nigh have &C.
complished in six years had she been
a member of the Parent Teachers'
Association; for there is no work so
spontaneous and effective as that
which is actuated by the heart. If
every mother in this district becomes
: a working member of the association
there will be no goal set by our lead
er that we will not be able to accom-
plish.
l believe our first effort is to be
for playground. It has been proven
that the products of well-planned,
well-supervised playground are fair
play, clean sport, holding fast to
the rules, teamwork and community
spirit. Nothing unwholesome can
flourish in such a democratic, ethical
atmosphere, so the bugbear of evil
communication vanishes with the
well-equipped playground.
Now, ladies, why shouldn't this as
ISOLATION be the strongest and most
useful one in Bogalusa? We have
the greatest incentive in the world,
for you know way down in your
hearts that our own children are the
most promising Of all and then, look
at US! Where would you find a more
brilliant, handsome, earnest, hard
working group of teachers or a stur-
der set of parents than we are. And
l take pleasure in adding that those
of you who have not been blessed
with children are the greatest Ieaven
of the association; as your opinions
are not biased by Jimmie and Sallie,
and your motives are the purest of
all, for they are dominated entirely
by unselfishness.
l close with the wish that by the
first of January every mother in this
district will have become a member
of the Parent Teachers Association.
/ thank you.
