snail and it was not until the after
noon of the second day we arrived
at Mississippi City and in the mean
time we had nothing to satisfy the
craving for hunger. We had prepared
rations before leaving Camp Moore
consisting of hard tack and boiled
bacon, both contained in open barrels
and set on the forward deck but the
downpour Of rain lasting several hours
made l0blolly of the bread and made
the bacon appear as if soaked in the
lake week or more, and the boys
would not eat the watersoaked stuff.
Surely we were getting a fore taste
of what was to come. We we're learn
ing that a soldiers life was not alto
gether a matter of dress parade, re-
views, blaring bands and waving flags.
About noon old Sol broke out in
all its refulgent splendor and after
a trip of "a hours the wharf at Mis-
sissippi City was reached to the dele
gate of the water-soaked soldiers.
Wet, hungry and weary by being pen
ned up on an overcrowded boat, the
boys nevertheless with slight COM
plant assisted the boats crew in
landing our camp equipage and were
then marched to the place selected
for the encampment, leaving me to
superintend the laoding of wagons
employed for the purpose.
Noticing on the wharf a fishing line
and lot of shrimp some one had left,
perhaps guest at the hotel, started
in to catch my supper while awaiting
the return of the wagons. Fish were
biting eagerly and rapidly, so by the
time the last load was starting camp
ward, had a long string of sea trout
with which l intended to treat two or
three of our Kid Soldiers. Reaching
camp, l found the tents pitched and
fires burning. and calling to the
youngsters "Here, Charley, Marty,
Tim, come clean these fish while !
rend out some pork and III give you
treat" This they refused to do
declaring they would rather 60 hungry
than clean fish. "Well, 60 hungry,
you lazy little DEVILS" said I, and per-
forming the work myself, it was not
long until l had large dish Of fried
fish, all to myself.

RECIPES.
Canapes.


A canape is something you not only
can ape, but want to-. Originally a
canape was a couch with a mosquito
curtain or canopy. Foodwise speak
ing, it is a piece of bread, either
toasted or fried, upon which may be
disposed any number Of various
spreads. The word is pronounced
can-a-pay, accent on the last syllable.
Your toast, freshly made or warmed
up, is to be served hot and we'll but
tered. The canape may be made from
round leaves or cut round with the
biscuit cutter, but will taste as good
whatever the shape. 1t is dainty laid
on a crisp lettuce leaf or with water
| cress. Some cooks chop very fine,
! white onion and lay a dab Of it be-
side the canape.
As to what goes on the prepared
| toast. it's name is legion-anythlng
taste DEGREES or fancy devises. The
first cat,apes were made with anchov-
les, or what we, in this democratic
country, would call ",sh gravy" high
ly seasoned.
To white, brown or tomato sauce,
as a foundation, add minced salmon,
tuna, cod, herring, sardines, or any
other kind of fish; or chopped ham or
, other meat; or beans, peas, or spin
ach: or dip the toast in grated cheese
and brown in the oven; or use mince-
meat, jam, apple-butter or any pie
filling.
The trend of canapes is to decora-
ton. Chopped olives, pickles, beets,
hard boiled eggs (yolk and white kept
separately are frequently used to make
fancy designs: stripes, circles, or
borders. A line of egg yolk alternat-
ing with a line Of egg white is an ODD
favorite. Red pepper or paprike may
be added.
Canapes are an excellent supper or
luncheon dish.

PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM
CRITICISED
Communicated


Criticism Of our high school grad
yates is heard from various quarters.
Poor children. they are not at fault.
The greatest wonder is that they have
imbibed any learning at all! They
have been kept So busy rushing their
books, that they have not bad time
to get an education. Going thru high
school, now, is like taking in worlds
fair in limited time--butterfly style,
with a scatterbrain result.
Young children have seven or eight
studies, and long lessons, in order to
go thru a certain unmber Of boo;;s,
during the year. They must take
hygelne, clvlcs, etc, in addition to
the essentials, Notwithstanding the
fact that they can neither pronounce
nor comprehend the meaning of the
words. Their parents have to read
and explain their lessons to them.
The text books are so complicated that
students are unable to make any
steps without assistance. The speller
, in the grammer schools is humbug.
There are no guide to pronunciation,
at all. Diacritic markings and syla-
bic divisions should be taught from
the very beginning, as is required in
the Phonic System and Word Method.
A grammar school pupil and high
school senior, both, spelled "assassi-
nate,' "ass-ass-i-nate," which sounds
rather asinine.
The poor children have to dabble
in music and drawing, regardless of
stone-deafness or color blindness.
They make a unit, or fraction of one,
and kill lot of time, anyway, so why
should anyone object?
They are criticised for their Door
penmanship. They spend a lot Of
money on Palmer pens, Palmer paper
and Palmer ink, and buy, on the aver
age, three tablets and pencils each
week. 1t does seem that anyone could
learn to write, after so much expense,
and with so much up-to-date para
Iphernalia, does it not? But, sad to
say, they can only scrawl; again they
are not to blame. Nearly all of their
studies are written, out of school and
in school, and they have seven or
eight studies, remember. Once a
month, there are tests in each from
two to five per day, all written, and
in limited time. So much writing
would put a crimp in anyone's pen
manship. Not only that, it is likely
to cause writer's cramp or rheuma-
tism, and, is detrimental to the eyes
and lungs. Really, the amount of
writing required is positively criminal!
Oh! yes, l know, conservation makes
a ready man, reading, full man, and
writing a concise and accurate one I?
but there are limits.
| Something is radically wrong with
the modern high school system. The
graduates are not working good, so
they say, and the children are nervous
and hysterical. During the past two
years l have observed the school boys
and girls closely, and their fingers
are rarely quiet, and so many eat their
nails, or bite them. It is not due to
movies nor jazz in our part of the
country, because we have no movies,
and very little jazz.
! Is this American Kultur?

1t seems when the company arrived
at the grounds they found rations pre-
pared in advance of their arrival and
hunger was fully appeased. Never
theless, when l began my feast the
youngsters sat around my fire gazing
loengfully while | feasted.
Say, Sergeant" said one, "you
can't eat all those fish, give US some'
What l can't eat, I'll throw away
you triAing scamps,' | replied.
"Oh, give me fish, Sergeant was
urged by one and all.
| intended all the time to share with
them and did so after a while,
much to their gustatory satisfaction.
The day after our arrival, small
cabin was constructed in which to
store medical supplies, the custodian
ship of which was in the hands OF
DR.. Marshal Pope, and it had scarcely
heen finished when three or four men
of the National Guards Of Baton
Rouge, Company A of the Fourth
Regiment, appeared in camp fighting
and bowling drunk. To confine them
in tents would be useless as the could
not be held there so the surgeons
shack was converted into prison and
that. too, without removing the medi-
cal stores.
Among the several boxes and pack
ages of DR.. Pope's hospital supplies
was case of cognac brandy which
the prisoners discovered while throw
ing and breaking and tearing open
the goods and of this brandy, the
rockies not only drank in surprisingly
large quantity, but showed several
bottles through an opening between
the roof and top plate to comrades
on the outside causing more drunken
ness and more prisoners.
The result Of this spree was that
orders were issued that the men OF
the four companies in that encamp.
ment were confined to quarters with
passes suspended. Of course, discon'
tent became general as innocent par.
ties could not understand why they
should be punished for the misdeeds
of others.
1t was not for punishment, how.
ever, that we were kept close in hand
but from the fact that the Massachu
setts, Federal War Ship, lay of
Ship Island, the boats of from which
often appeared out in the bay as il
about to raid somewhere along the
coast and it was to prevent landing
we were kept near our rifles.
To compensate in a measure for oul
close confnefent the Deltas were re-
cipients of many social favors extend
ed by Louisjanians summering along
the coast and quite often the compan!
as body, armed and equipped, headed
by our captain was marched to one Of
the homes where we were royalty en-
tertained, social recognition tending
to excite jealousy on the part of the
soldiers of other companies not Sc
favored.
