hope of ever having the use of my limbs

In a certain play it was the duty of
the hero to leap out of the window Of
his oom and to enter from a door on the
opposite side Of the stage clad in differ
ent clothes, though otherwise the same.
This, however, was juggling pure
aud simple. The actor dropped into his
second dress in much the same way as
All American fireman is reputed to
jump into his uniform. The costume
consisted of but one piece with a patent
fastening down the back, and as he
leaped through the window frame he
leaped into his clothes, which, so to
speak. shut behind him and left him re.
habilitated.
Neither is the part of the understudy

Parish Teachers Institute.

Last Saturday the st. Landry teachers
held another successful institute. The
teachers came from all over this large
parish through rain and over muddy
roads to do their duty to themselves,
and, consequently, To the you'll, of this
community.
Miss Virginia Dornan. a normal grad
nate now located lit Eunice, iectured on
"Aritl.metic." Her methods were heart
lily endorsed by all tho teachers. Prof.
Il. II. Harris opened discussion on many
important subjects in. arithmetic. 1t
was interesting to see original ideas eX-
pressed by acme teachers, and to see
some puzzled on simple questions.
Supt. FraZce displayed IL lively inter
est throughout tie meeting, taking part
in all discussions. This is the second
institute held this year, aud it can bo
safely predicted tilat if Mr.. Frazee at
tends those which arg to follow none
will be IL failure, for he not only takes
part il. discussions, as was sand above.
bat he encourages and stimulates the
teachers by pointing out the rich harv-
est that is to he reapeh as Ii compensa-
ton for their untiring efforts IN eGucat-
ing the children OF the present century.
Too mncl, credit cannot he given Prof.
Harris, also, for conducting these insti-
tutes as he does. lie is the visible head
of these meetings and proves himself to
be the right MAJ in the right place.
On April 5 the teachers meet again.
Prof. 4 W. Riitlc, OF Washington, will
lecture on Writing aud Spelling" All
teachers are required to be present. VS.
itols are cordially invited.

How Can You Help the School?

We have often heard the story of the
old man illustrating the strength. in the
principle Of union. bat it is alWas good
when repeated. Tho old MAJ was rich
and had seven sons whose jealousy was
finally aroused to the highest pitch be-
cause each thought that the other would
become heir to the fathers wealth. The
Old man Saw this aud calie,! Ills sons,
making them form Il cItcln around him.
He had seven hickory sticks tied III u
bundle, and promised to give any n
of them his whole fortune il he would
break them will, his hands. Each tried,
but ii, vain. They all were disap-
pointed and said it could not be done.
The old man said it could he done, and
proved it. He took the bundle OF sticks.
united them and broke each stick sep
a~rateIy. The sons made AT! sorts of
grimaces, and said that il WAS an unfair
trick. The old man spo e to his sons
as follows: "My sons, I've You seven
sticks i~hsen'ins you "~Aknit. You
have notirN their strength N1R united
and their w,Hituass when diHaeR. Our
gland renuhliNwas founded on the prin-
cipIe. 'United~ stand1 divided we
fall" am geErmnkRfld shall leave
my fortune To you all. Ii yon wish to
keep it stay together, wolk together and
tDfc ctttii tthtt. II Sou htS 5h tIIS
manner it will be hard for injury to
other, but help each other if you wish
to remain standing as our glorious union
does"
The principle illustrated above la ap-
plicable not only to the stability Of the
United States nor to the sever sons
alone, but to every movement or nndeG-
taking which, depends on two or more
people for It's existence and support.
The high school Of 0~pelousas is sadly
in need of IL union Of all those upon
whom it depends for it's support. The
teachers, school board, patrons, aud the
people in general, each has its special
duty to perform. But we are not com
planning now of any of those classes eX-
cept the patrons. They are not per
forming their duty IN that they cause
irregular Attendance. We admit there
was an unusual amount of sickness last
month, but We know at instances where
the older pupils we,e~ permitted by tiiei.
parents to miss IA day III halliday Oh ac-
count of il ball. Others We're absent for
no cause whatever. Patrons have been
very care'ess in regard to- hardness, hnt
by constantly worrying them for ex-
custs the traclleIs have succeeded III
getting u little more ;~inctua!ity.
In the IeX lsStte we shall deal with
the evil effects OF irregular habits on the
growing character, and also the great
Injustice done to ntilr. pupils by having
to tolerate the irregularities of their
classmates. Patrons, unite with the
teachers and raise your schcn, u point
higher. You have Il school building and
teachers. The teaviiers want you to
join them, and do your duty.
