THE SCOTT SCHOOL.
Closing Exercises Held May 30

On the both of May the Scott
public school held it's closing eN-
ercises. Under the able direc
tion of Miss Edith Mayer, this
school has had a most successful
term. The exercises consisted
of recitatiOns, dialogues and
class songs. The children
played their parts in a manner
which showed results of
careful training and intelligent
instruction. Miss Mayer re-
warded the little folks with ice
cream and cake.
The Gazette is pleased to note
the interest which the teachers
throughout the parish are show
ing in their work. Without the
active cooperation of the pri-
mary schools located in the diff
ferent wards the movement in
this parish for improved educa-
tiOnal facilities could be only
meaSurably successful. They
are the pillars of the educational
structure. Though the results
of their labor are not wired to
the metropolitan papers and
they have no graduates with
classical gowns and caps to test
the skill of the engravers and to
ornament the front page of the
! large daily, quietly and without
! OStentatiOn they are doing a
great work in the crusade
against ignorance. Their posi-
ton in the educational system is
similar to that of the old pioneers
who cleared the forests and
paved the way for higher civ
ilizatiOn. Their mission is /,
most important one and there is
not a class of workers who
should receive more encourage
ment from the friends of popular
education.

Pilette school We're held last !
Friday in Pilette Hall. Mr.. Ale ,
man and Mr. J. O. RrousSard +!
delivered short talks in French
to the people assembled. Mr..
Alleman dwelt upon the absolute
necessity for Il longer term. He
said that a term of seven or eight
months. giving the children of
the parish 40 to I6O days of ac-
tual school work was not Sutfi-
cient when We took into cOnSl-
deratiOn the fact that there ar"
800 days in the year. He made
Il plea for at least 200 days of
school OF a term of ten scholastic
months and said that the people
should not rest satisfied with
less. and that it was in the power
of the people alone to secure the
longer term. He said the Police
Jury. who werc the direct repre-
SentativeS of the people. had
done their duty last year and
that he had full confidence in the
men composing the body and
that they could be counted ON to
do their duty again. The school
revenues were derived from
three sources. the State. the
parish and the rent of school
lands The parish schools could
be run ten months for $4,000.
Next year tn" Stat" appOrtlon-
ment would probably amount to
$1,000 the revenue from school
lands. S2OOO:with an appropriation
of $4,000 from the Police jury and
some aid from the Town Council
the Schnul Board could run the
schools ten months. To reach
that goal he asked the assistance
of every citizen of the parish.
Mr.. J. @. BrOuSSard then fol
lowed with short practical talk
on the, necessity for education.
He said in part:
I am delighted to see this

duty Of those entrusted with the

Christian people to pour baptiS-
NAL waters on infants to cleanse
them from the stain of sin. In
like manner education should be
poured on our children to cleanse
them from the blight of iGnn-
rance.
All migrants who com" to
this parish arc educated. and un-
less We educate our children,
these more intelligent strangers
will push US aside and become
Ilit owners Oh tilt' idlltl dlltt 'lN'
rulers of the country. On the
other hand. if W" give our
children Il fair chance. if we
build up our public school SNS-
tenn to that standard of efficiency
enjoyed by the NOR" progressive
communities of the State. our
children will be able to hold their
own under any circumstance and
at any time. Conditions are
changing from year to year.
Conditions have materially v
changed within the past twenty
tive years. The demand of tie
hour is education and we must
furnish it to our children at
whatever cost.
The exercises of the school
consisted of recitationS in
English and in French. the sing
