EvANGELINE

THE very essence of poetry is cap
= tured and held imprisoned In the
name Evangeline. The legend of that
beautiful and unhappy maiden whose
fateful wanderings were fmmortalized
by Longfellow surrounds the name
with romance and charm beyond all
other feminine names.
Evangeline is derived from the
Greek and signifies angel-lil1e 1t also
has the translation happy messen-
GER since 1t comes from the Greek
word meaning well. happy, combined
with another word meaning moving I;
the whole forming Evangelus, bearer
Of good tidings. The term applied
originally to shepherd who brought
to Ephesus the tidings OF quarry Of
beautiful marble for the building OF
the temple that was the glory OF the
city and OF Asia. Adorned with heroic
honors as he was, the title must have
seemed to the Ephesian Christians to
fit those spiritual shepherds who
brought the best Of tidings and Evan
gelista became the term for preachers.
Evangelista was an old Italian name
and Longfellow seemed to have Dor
rowed 1t and invented his Evangeline
purely for use in his poem. 1t Is from
his adoption that all the American
Evangelines are derived, so 1t may
perhaps be called the purest American
feminine name which we have. Ger
tainly Longfellow has described an
ideal American girl
Fair was she to behold that maiden Of
seventeen summers.
Black We're her eyes az the berry that
grows on the thorn by the wayside,
Black, yet how softly they CLEANED be-
meath the wn-shade OF her tresses
Sweet was her breath as the breath OF the
kline that feed In the meadows
When In the harvest heat she bore to
the reapers at noon-tide.
F7agons OF home-brewed ale. All, fair In
sooth was the maiden.
When she had passed 1t seemed like the
ceasing of exquisite music"
Evangeline's talismanic gem is the
ruby, that warm pulsing stone which Is
said to be an elixir Of great potency
for the wearer. It's medicinal quail
ties were held in great esteem by the
ancients and from it the potion known
as ruby elixir" is said to have arisen.
To dream of a ruby signifies unex-
pected guests. The lily, denoting pur-
ity, is Evangeline's flower. Tuesday
is her lucky day and three her tails

in the exterior view of the building
A hall pen and calf pen adjoin the
rows " stalls, while In the end Is
space for loose cattle, removable par
titions being shown on the plan.
In either wall of the barn are fresh
air inlets. These inlets are SO con
structed that the fresh air is taken
into the stable above the heads of the
cows. In the ceiling are the foul-air
outlets. These outlets are connected
with fiues that lead to the suction
ventilators on the roof of the barn.
The system of sucking the foul air out,
draws the fresh air in without Great
ing draft. thus providing healthful
air for the animals.
The concrete floor, sanitary stall
partitions and concrete managers also
prevent disease germs from becoming
active. The litter is dropped into
the cutters at the back of the stalls,
and is taken out daily. Drains are
provided so that the stable may be
hosed out.
Such barn as this provides safe,
economical place to house the dairy
herd. The animals will be healthy
and kept at maximum production
The work is doEe with less men and
the jobs are less arduous and more
pleasant.

Origin of the "Stouie.D

1t is said that the long cheroots de
rived their names from the town Of
Conestoga. Pa; that an immigrant
train Of wagons was finding it's way
across the state, and a supply of to-
bacco was found at Conestoga. The
emigrants got a LOT of it., but failed
to get any pipes, and SO could not
smoke. One of the men rolled a leaf
of the tobacco in his hand and
wrapped it with another leaf. That
was the first stogie. Others followed
his example, and they all called the
article that they made ''stoga." in
honor Of the town at which the to-
bacco was secured.-Boston Herald.

SCHOOL NEWS

This is the time of year when we
begin to get inquiries about exam
nations, and such inquiries contin.
ne coming until after the examina
tons are held. We are going to give
the needed information below for the
benefit of the school people Of the
county and any others who may be
interested we assume all the teach
ers of the county read their county
papers. We just as well explain
right here that we always send our
letters to all the papers Of the county
but one paper in the county seldom
publishes anything we send it unless
it is pay advertisement. We may
add that he has lost few subscrib-
ers on the account of this attitude
why be so narrow? We are trying
to serve the whole people. We feel
that it is useless to send this paper
any further articles when they are
not deemed of sufficient Importance
to appear in print. Since every one
has his limit--here we quit.
The examination dates for teach
ers certificates: First examination
April 1927; second, June 14-15.
Examination for high school credits
June /, one day only Examination
on reading circle books for profess
ional credit, coupons Of credit and re-
newal Of certificates June 2, one day
only. Examination for the free
school diploma win be given April
90 at the places throughout the
county where usually held, few If
any changes will be made in places.
Only one examination for the free
school diploma will be given, and
only eighth grade pupils should be
allowed to apply, and only those who
have diploma. Often times those
who have the diploma enter the ex-
animation "'just for the fun Of it,,
they say. We should bear In mind
that it requires time and money to
grade manuscripts. When we are
confronted with more than 1000
manuscripts to grade and Of which
careful records must be made, we do
not consider it any play job neither
do the graders.
A word concerning the qualifica-
tons for the elementary teachers
certificate: In short the qualifications
remain the same this year as was
required last year applicants for
first grade must have credit for four
units Of high school work and one
unit in professional work.
Those who desire to renew their
first grade the second time may
elect one Of the following ways: "a
Six weeks attendance in an accredit-
ed school; six hours Of credit earned
in extension work during the life OF
the certificate; (3) passing an exam
nation on two Of this years reading
circle books with grade Of $50, as
minimum. 1t is also required that
the applicant will have taught at
least three years during the life Of
the certificate which de desires to
renew.
At the present time first grade
temporary certificates are issued to
high school graduates "a years work.
who do nine weeks credit work in a
normal school. Those who hold such
certificates may have them renew
ed this year on the above condition.
Those who are interested should
place the above rulings and an
nouncements in their hats for re-
ference-we shall not give them a.
gain-and be able to tell those who
not read the county papers.

SERIOUS DISASTER
THREATENED

South Georgia is threatened

of the sharp falling off of hog
production. Last year hog pro-
duction fell of 25 per cent. This
year indicates further decline
of 35 per cent. In Southern Ala
bama the decline was even great
er, Do farmers realize that the
principal reason why they are
up against it this year" is that
too much dependence is still be-
ing placed in cotton and too lit
tie i'm other crops. The bankers
know it. And if the farmer does
not know it by now he is pitiful-
ly blind TO facts and conditions.
He sends millions Of dollars an
nually to the West for cured
pork. We come no where near
producing the bacon and ham we
consume, Is it any wonder the
South stays poor? Here we have
as fine hog country rs there IS
in the wO-..1. They can be rails
ed more cheaply than in any east
ern state, vet we continue to
grease our skillets with Western
lard and pay fancy prices for
Western ham. We should have
twice as many hogs to sell this
fall and winter as were sold in
1920. Instead Of that, we have
less than half as many.-Butler
