earned holiday.
We are glad to have Albert Russell
with US during the past month, he is a
good student and an acceptable ad-
dition to our classes.
The High School room and room

this afternoon. Rooms l and , are
going for picnic out to Mr.. Reeves

the afternoon at the park.
We have no graduates this year
but we have the material that will
make some excellent specimens of that
delightful product in the near future.
Now boys and girls who we're not in
school this year. make up your minds
now that when school opens this fall
you will be there for work. And
while we do not offer you a college
education, we do say that the schools
of Welsh can give you thorough
High School Education, there will Re
time enough then to consider the
College Education.
Parents we trust, that if YOUR bow
or girl has failed to make his or her
grade in this terms work, you will
not conclude that the teacher has q
special spite against them, but rather
that by months of work and care it is
seen that their best interests demand
review of the work, rather than al.
vancement into new and harder fields.

Mothers will you kindly see that

NOTES

Our eight month term of school
closes today, June 9th. AS we look
back over our years work there are
many things which we view with pleas,
ure, while the kindly hand of time is
already remouing the sting from the
unpleasant things. We are glad to
note that there has been steady in
crease in our enrolment from the first
until the last, there being five enroll
ed during the present month. We are
glad to note that interest has been
kept up in the various grades TO such
an extent that our enrolment even at
this late closing is about one hundred
and fifty pupils. We rejoice that there
has been a steady growth in interest
among our pupils, and an increasing
desire to secure as much as possible
OF the golden fruits of knowledge. 1t
is also with unfeigned JOY that we view
the moral tone of our school. On all
the wall surface of our building and
Outbuildings one will find no carve d
Or written words such as usually de-
face public property. To my mind
this speaks much for the purity of our
boys, for, From the fullnesS of the
heart the mouth speaketh.
In conclusion We desire to thank the
patrons and parents of Welsh and
vicinity for your kindly interest in
and loyal support of the schools this
year. No one is more cOgnizant of
their own fallibility than we, yet we
trust you will credit US with having
but one motive in our work as teachers.
namely: The making of better citizens
of the boys and girls of Welsh. and
without your support we, nor any
other teachers, can accomplish much
OF lasting good. D. r. READ.

SOsthen "uidry Near Lake Arthur.
Onezime Trahan stabbed and killed
his brother-in-law, Sosthen Guidry,
at a dance about three miles north of
Lake Arthur Saturday night.
Reports are to the effect that the two
men were at dance and Trahan was
trying to raise a row. Guidry tried
to stop him. They got into an argu-
ment and Guidry hit Trahan with his
fists. Trahan then pulled out a pocket
knife and cut Guidry on the arm. He
made another stab and cut him in the
jugular vein. Guidry walked about 40
yards and dropped dead.
A warrant was sworn out against
TrBhan before Justice Hempstead by
Lake Arthur parties and Constable
Nahatfey was sent to Lake Arthur but
it seems that the Lake Arthur MAYOR
had taken things in charge and turned
Trahan over to Deputy sheriff who
took him to Lake Charles.
