folks-few of them out of their
teens, gave a dance at Falk's hall
last Saturday. 1t was a most joyous
affair. How could it be otherwise7
Such gathering of handsome lads
and pretty lasses bent On pleasure
and not get it would be something
unheard of. They had gone there
with the prime object to have some
fun and secondarily to learn how to
dance. The first part of the pro-
gram was carried out to perfection
while the dancing was at times SO
delightfully."- enhancing as to chal-
lenge the admiration of Terpsicore

Mount Carmel Convent.

While Lafayette may not be as
fortunate as some of her sisters in
the possession of many things ne
believe that in educational facilities
she is in no sense of the word lag
gard in the race. With two good
public schools, several private ones,
and the grand institution whose
name is at the head of this article,
our little city is certainly entitled to
be placed among the first of the list
of Louisiana towns. Not only at
home are the splendid advantages
of the Mount Carmel Convent ap-
preciated, but miles away, in dis
tant parishes, the people have learnt
to know its worth as school for
girls, as is evidenced by the fact that
among the boarders are young
ladies from different parts of the
State. Under the motherly care of
the good sisters the girls are af-
forded unexcelled opportunities to
store their minds with knowledge,
for the teachers are able, painstak-
ing and experienced, and the curri-
culum is complete. The convent
building is handsome and COM
modious structure, the class rooms
are well-furnished and very airy,
and the grounds broad and shady.
In fact there is everything calcu-
lated to please the student and to
enhance the appearance of the sur
roundings.
A few days ago the sisters began
to train the girls for the entertain
ment which took place at their hall
last Wednesday night. 1t was a
laborious undertaking, but with
their well-known energy and tact,
they worked early and late until the
smallest detail of the program was
properly arranged. The entertain
naent was a most creditable affair,
and though the program was quite
lengthy, the large audience listened
attentively to its entire rendition,
despite the intense heat. The
songs, sketches, drilling, ETC., were
all well rendered.
Thursday morning the distribu-
ton of premiums took place. A
number of beautiful gold and silver
medals were. awarded to the de-
serving ones. a hundred or more
books were also gwen away as
