VI("T)I'Y ('ELEIRIATION.
At a minstrel show in 'Mississippi
the other night an old darky got so
tickled at some of the antics of the
performers that he rolled from his
seat onto the ground and still rolled
and laughed.
At the Woodmen Victory Celebra
tion, which has been postponed from I
the 11th to Monday the 20th, there I
will be a Plantation Minstrel. but
the laughing darkey in the audience
will probably not be so conspicuous
as was the above mentioned.
All the shows aid rides will be in
running order by 7:30 on the 20th. and
it has been promised that a welcoming I
address will be made from the plat
form of one of the attractions at about
this time.
Mrs. Jim Eylward, who is directing
the Victory Celebration for the House
Committee of the Woodmen, has been 4
assured that ample street car service i
will be arranged to take care of thel
crowds from Gretna and all parts of
A!giers.
Mrs rLylward also states that there
.ill be a concert on the grounds of
the Victory Celebrat:on every evening 1
-nd Saturday and Sunday afternoon.
Among the interesting features will
be the Monteaque family of midgets.
They were born. It is said, in the,
Southern part of France, and have
circled the globe three times-exhib
Iting in Japan. China and India as
well as other parts of the civilized
world.
The ladies of the Orange Circle No.
9 have made preparations to serve
refreshments-hot chocolate, hot cof
fee and other good things.
Mrs. Smith retu iied home from a
busy trip up State. especially to be
on hand for the 11th. as scheduled.
but was pleased on learning of the.
postponement, for it gives all more
time for greater preparation, as she
said.

SCHOOL BANK.
In the amounts deposited in the
School Banks for the month of De
cember, McDonogh No. 4 occupied
second place in all the New Orleans
schools, with $233.02 to its credit,
while Belleville was sixth with $112.93
to its credit.
In January McDonogh No. 4 was
fifth, depositing $35.94 and Belleville
was twelfth, depositing $11.29.
The different schools are working
hard in this contest. The school that
is instrumental in the opening up of
the largest number of new savings ac
counts between January first and the
end of the school year in June will be
presented with a silver loving cup.
New Christmas saving clubs accounts
will give the sdhool credit. So if
you have an account to open give it
to one of the pupils who will deposit
the folder in the school bank, and it
will in turn be deposited in any bank
whose name appears on the folder.
Every boy or girl who now has, or who
will open a savings account with any
of the banks whose names appear on
the folder can become a member of
the Public School Savings Club. There
are no dues or fees.
Each week a bulletin shows the
amount deposited by the different
schools, the leader being credited with
a red star. The school having the
largest number of red star credits at
the end of the June season will re
ceive the loving cup.
McDONOGH No. 5.
McDonogh No. 5 is still without
a principal, waiting the action of
the New Orleans School Board. The
routine of the school, however, has
not been disturbed and the children
and faculty are waiting daily for the
new principal, who is to take the
place, which was made vacant when
Miss Megget was promoted.
A letter was mailed to little Roger
Deverre. our noble little French
brother, and the little ones are
eagerly awaiting an answer from
overseas. Pennies for our adopted
brother are coming in with continu
ed interest, which shows the Joy
that this work brings to our little
Americans in McDonogh No. 5.
McDONOGH No. 4 NOTES.
Work in Ateletics is progressing
favorably, two regular teams, prac
ticing every evening. Entries of
teams will be made Jan. 16th. The
boys have all been officially meas
ured and their testis organized, and
the most important thing to be done
is for the different players to prac
tice their special line of work so
that some games may be won in the
coming series.
Mr. ,Mervin Umbach has kindly
volunteered to coach the boys after
school, as he has had fine experi
ence in this popular sport. We cer
tainly appreciate his efforts to help
our boys and hope they will en
deavor to do their best under his
guidance. We are also indebted to
Master IBehrman French for coming
to the.school grounds every evening
to give our players pointers about
the gama.and. to plai. with them.
We hope he will continue to come
and help Mr. Umbach.
5Ir. and Mrs. C. L. Stumpf have
kindly offered us two fine lots on
Homer St., to be used as a school
garden and work will be begun in
the near future. It will be a little
inconvenient for us to get to this
section of Algiers, but we appreciate
the fact that we secured them and
they were so willIgly offered us.
and we thank Mr. and Mrs. Stumpt
and hope they wl ~e rewrarded by
eeing the results obtained by the
boys in this Woitk.

Seventh Grade are making the medi
cine cabinet, under the direction of
aMr. Ortland, our Manual Training I
teacher.
The Club decided to go on record,
as favoring the closing of schools at
3 p. m. Telephone service will hbe
installed, and a Victrola will be I
purchased at an early date.
A set of Holmes" Travelogues,
consisting of thirteen volumes, lea
ther-bound, finely illustrated and ex- I
cellently printed, was purchased for (
the school library. They cozt eighty 4
dollars. but these works are well
worth the money, and will serve as c
a great source of help to both teach- v
:rs and pupils.
It was decided to have social meet
ings at regular Intervals and` our
next regular meeting will be one of
that kind. We hope. to have a very r
large attendance of both fathers and
mothers on that occasion, as we
know everyone will have a pleasant
time and friendlier relations will be
established between the members.
Mr. F. Henning addressed the
meeting and in the course of his re
marks, he deplored the fact that
very few fathers are interested
enough in the welfare of their sons
to attend meetings. He said that
the work of the Public Schools was J,
for the welfare of the nation and cl
that it was the foundation of every- s4
thing that means the uplifting of de
this great democracy. He said that
he always believed in co-operating
with the women-teachers of boys, be- F
cause they have difficult and im
portant work to do, and they should
be helped -by all parents, because si
they work for the betterment of L
mankind. rHe expressed a desire a
for a larger attendance of fathers at ri
future meetings. C
Mr. E. W. Hynes, assistant super- i
intendent of Public Schools, visited
our school last week and said he al
was very pleased and satisfied with g
the work done in the several grades ri
he visited and the progress made U
by the school. o0
