The Easter holidays have come
and gone and the pupils have
| readily resumed their school
work. These holidays which
were so graciOusly given by our
President were pleasantly spent
by every pupil of the school and
our only regret is that they do
not come more often.
Gov. Heard, with number of
the foremost educational men of
our State, honored Lafayette and
other towns of the parish with a
visit on April II. These gentle
men inspected our Institute and
expressed themselves well
pleased with the result. On
that day they visited Carencro
and speeches were made by diff
ferent members of the party.
