GENERAL EDUCATION BOARD
One Thous-
and Dollars for Lafay-
cite Parish.

Last week DR.. Wallace But
trick, secretary and executive
officer of the General Education
Board, autographed Supt. Ale
man to meet him in New Or
leans. Mr. Alleman went and
the result of the interview was
an appropriation of one Thousand
dollars for the public schools of
Lafayette parish.
Readers of The Gazette will
remember the visit of Prof.
David E. Cloyd, the field agent
Of the Board, last October. Mr..
Cloyd visited several of the
schools of the parish, and met
in conference with members of
the School Board and other
friends of education to whom he
explained the object of the or
SANITATION of his patriotic Board.
Prof. Cloyd was favorably i'm
pressed with the progressive
spirit of the educational move
merit in the parish and was es-
pecially pleased to report to his
Board that the leading citizens
of the town and parish regard
less of religious or political aft
liations, were of one mind on the
great question of universal edu
cation. 1t was the report of
such condition that claimed
recognition of our merits and
when it is remembered that the
General Education Board does
not give away one cent, the peo-
pie of the parish have reason to
be proud of the compliment paid
them by the Board which is COM
posed of the best business brains
of the country, North and South.
The appropriation of one thous
and dollars to Lafayette means
that the people are helping
themselves and that our claim,
so to speak, was recognized
among thousands of others.
Hence it is that The Gazette
thinks the action of the Board a
compliment to the parish.
DR.. Buttrick is very we'll
pleased with the promising con-
dition of the public school sys-
TEN of the parish and it is his
confidence in the ultimate result
here that has prompted him to
lend a hand at this time when it
is most needed.
The Gazette has always main
tanned and still maintains that
Lafayette parish is rich enough
to maintain a frst-claSs system
of school throughout the parish,
but the fact remains that the
parish has never done it, and
until we have established such a
system we need feel no hest
fancy in accepting aid from
such public spirited and patrio-
tic citizens as compose the Gen
eral Education Board.
The supreme object in the or
ganization Of the General Educa-
ton Board is to assist struggling
! com munities to establish good
rural schools. The Board recog-
nizes the fact that the cross
road schoolhOuse with one
teacher and forty children in
four or five grades has proved a
failure; that it is an absolute i'm
possibility for one teacher to
cope with such a school. The
General Education Board be-
lieves in the consolidation OF
, country schools and in trans
! portation of the child rem to
5 these schools at public expense.
' Such system does not cost
l more and the results are in
:. creased about three-fOld. 1t is
r. better to go four miles to a good
i strong school than to attend 8
j.. third rate school at your door

Worms have neither eyes nor ears ana
yet are sensitive to light md music
(vide-Darwfn's "Earthworms"). A
bluebottle, In spite Of not having =

easily enough. In short, many Of the
lower animals contrive to see. hear.

pose, and often in a high degree, with
out being able to point to any special
organs Of these senses in their bodies.
and to suppose they are devoid OF q
sense because we are unable to dis

ignorance.
