COMMENCEMENT.

In June, lovely June, all the schools
close with a commencement, one way
of making both ends meet, Mount Car
mel Convent selected the 22d inst, for
their always interesting program.
Just before the hour appointed thund-
er rolled, lightning flashed and rain
fell at first in showers. the sun play
ing bopeep with the clouds. The
friends of the sweet sisters who con-
duct their school are numerous and
faithful, as one could see by the way
they crowded through the rain trying
to ignore it, fearing to raise an UNI
brella, lest it would give some careful
individual the impression that thewea-
Their was not as dry as one could desire
for All evening on the lawn. The la
dies had their tables for refresllment
two story, all cakes and articles that
would not be improved by gentle
shower were on the first floor. When
the rain descended so steadily and
briskly that new hats were endangered
it was pathetic to see the expression
on SO many faces as the umbrellas
were raised. To speaker "sea of
upturned faces is an inspiration but
what comical appearance from the
platform must have been presented by
a hundred or two umbrellas all bob
bling and twisting according to the
movements of the various PERSONAL
ties sheltered beneath. But weather
or not the crowd continued to come
until the ample Accommodations on the
lawn were taxed to the full. The
program was unusually interesting,
long enough for two charming even
ings. These wise sisters believe that
young eyes keep their brightness best
by closing early. All the year around |

THE ONLY QUESTION BEFORE
THE PEOPLE.

The school question, question tina,
should be paramount iii every house.
hold, at every hearthstone, in every
tent from whose flagstaff civilization
floats, has about simmered down and
is being consigned to oblivion. The
sign of Indifference and public cal
lousness is ominous because it portends
degeneration and helplessness No
community can with impunity ignore
the vital spark Of human nature and
the electric current of the soul that
generates energy and activity. HUI
man intelligence as well as the human
mind must be nourished at the table
Of intellect and it's thirst slackened at
the spring Of flowing, bubbling,
advancing civilization.
These two most important factors in
our constitution and make up cannot
be fed and satiated by shams and n.y.
pocricy, nor kept in health and vigor
by simnlatioDs and kindred attitudes.
Brains must be watered by the wisdom
OF the sage and bathed in the spirit Of
the age, but it cannot improve under
an imposing weight and form Of head
gear rejecting vanity, wind and vapor.
New Iberia has nothing to boast Of
education and to loose in its store of
intellience. Illiteracy las almost
reached the high water mark. Con-
ceit, sufticiency and supercilious
air Of completeness pervade the tone of
our municipal life. Everything and
everybody basks in the sunshine Of his
own swell head and gyrates in the or
bit 'of his stellar illumination. Each
and every one is a separate particle Of
q whole tornado ard a distinct culver
ing atom of 1istless zephyr. MOI
honOgeneity of sentiment, no common
desire and run of thought dare raise
its head against this background. The
shadows and darkness Of the panorama
stifie the freshness and green hope Of |
future improvement. A population
Of 5000 souls moved and touched by
such dismal forces is sad spectacle
OF humanity. Less than $50 people |
OF this moving mass read the news
papers or keep posted as to the current |
daily affairs of the world. OF these
l50 with starred breasts, less than 80
understand thoroughly what they read
Of the contents Of printed newspapers
Of other literature and Of these & less
than 90 there are about bakers doz-
en- or 20 who represent the sun, the
hope, the ambition Of the paraded re-
ineanent and culture Of the town.
And from that rare selected bunch Of /
giants, New Iberia will draw its fu-
Eure heroes and geniuses The munich
pal appetite for literature and culturel
