Dedication OF the BrousSardv;Ile
School House To IorrOw

O-morrOw, Sunday, March
8, at 3 p. m, the handsome
BrOuSsardville schOOl-hOuSc Will
be dedicated with appropriate
exercises by the children of the
school, with music by the Sontag
Military Band, and with an adj
dress by Prof. Alcea FOrtier Of
Tulane University. Prof. For
tier is ono of LOuisiana's sons
who have Won distinction in
the field of letters and is one of
the greatest living authorities on
the history of Louisiana. He is
at present engaged in writing a
history of his native state. He
has always shown great interest
in the cause of education and
has made several addresses in
behalf Of universal education in
Lafayette parish. Professor
FOrtier has lectured at the prin-
cipal universities of the country
and at the celebrated Chautau
qua in New York State.
The Gazette hopes that /, large
delegation from Lafayette will
attend the exercises and thus
avail them solves OF the OppOrt-
unity Of hearing the address OF
the distinguished French scholar
and Of helping good cause.
Lafayette parish is rich enough
to give its children the best Sys-
tenn Of schools that money can
obtain and its leading citizens in
all parts of the parish are direct
ing their energy to this end
which means that the thing Will
be accomplished.
What a beautiful com men taly
on the public schools Of a state
whom they are patrunized by the
children OF the president of this
country Yet this is as it should
be because the public school
Systc is the most important
depart OF the government
and will soon be given the place
Of honor which it deserves in
the cabinet Of the President Of
the United States
The fact that education, for
the first time in the history OF
the world, will be given the place
Of honor at the Louisiana Pur
chase Exposition to be held in
ST. Louis next year, is signit-
cant of the revolution of public
sentiment in favor Of universal
education that has swept over
the country in the past few
years. No where has more acti-
witty been displayed than in the
South. and we are proud Of the
fact that. Lafayette parish is
determined not to march at the
tail-end OF the procession.
The largest gathering ever
assembled in the history of the
parish is expected tomorrow.
The fifth ward is Fortunate in
being the first in the parish to
take up the question Of better
facilities for schools.
