work which assures an early com.
pletion. A large and commodious
grand stand, dancing pavilion and
several other buildings are to be
erected, also a bridge, which will
span the bayou at point near Della.

The kindergarten.

The good and benefit to be derived
from kindergarten in community is
never fully realized until you have had
one established. Franklin last year had
one with an attendance of eighty schol.
ars, and 1t becomes necessity which
cannot be very well done away without
lnJuring the town. We are in need of
such an institution Of learning, and
While we must sustain it this year by
private subscriptions, we see no good
reason why Franklin should not bridge
the gap. A meeting of the Mothers
Club of the Franklin kindergarten, and
all others interested in the kindergarten
movement are requested by the Parish
superintendent to meet at the Kinder.
garten building on Tuesday, Aug 18th,
at $50 O'Clock p. M, for the purpose of
taking immediate steps towards raising
the necessary amount to maintain the
kindergarten for next year. Every
member of the Mothers Club should n
fail to attend this meeting, and if they
do, we feel satisfied we can raise the
amount necessary to continue the Kim
dergarten. The sum of $4,000 is a
small amount when we take into consid.
Grafton the education and bringing up of
our children Sc as to fit them to take up
the struggles of life. The only way to
raise the money is for every citizen to
come up with their subscription accord
ing to their means. We believe the citi-
zens of Franklin are too enlightened to
begrudge their children an early educa-
tional training just for the sake of few
dollars. Let every one come up and do
their duty.
