DOCTOR THE PENDUL UNI.

We regret that our local teach
ers feel somewhat sore over last
weeks editorial ITO Be Learn
ed" While not proposing to re-
tract a sentence of our criticism
on certain fooleries in modern
methods, we can assure our
teachers, whose earnestness and
sincerity we honor as highly as
we believe firmly in our own,
that our animadversions we're in
no wise personal, though locally
applicable, but related to the
system. This system shows a
reaction from the old methods
which made school intensely
dull, except to the more studious
minded. The pendulum is swing.
ing too far the other way now,
The master hand should regulate
the pendulum so that it's arc
Is should neither include the
bounds of old fogyism nor the
extreme of absurd new tangled
ums.
Most parents want their child
rem taught everything THAI tends
to produce a Well-rOunded char
acter, but primarily schools are
for teaching how to read, write
calculate; to spell and speak cor
rectly. Failing these thin gs
nothing can be counted gainful
| And we claim, that the text book!
now in use mot the teachers
bless them, who use as best the,
can the ones they have) are no
producing good spoilers or read
ers or arithmeticians, and tn
time taken up in a dozen fad
leaves too little time for practice
along these lines. The average
pupil is a practical exposition O
this in spite of the ipse dixit o
modern pedagogy, or the fats o
all the normal schools.

WHY QUACKS FLOURISH.

Too much cannot be said in|
praise of the New Orleans
Worlds war on quacks. Where
people spend a few dollars for
patent medicines, these quacks
mulct their victims of hundreds
of dollars, by the very magnitude
of their pretensions. Their
principal graft is demanding
payment in advance for costly
medicines, some of which the
state chemist has analysed and
found to be the most ordinary
medicines, that any drug store
keeps in stock. All reputable
physicians should give their
moral support to the efforts
made to root out these death
dealing parasites on a noble pro-
fession. But in one sense, the
better class of physicians are
responsible for the rich harvest
the quacks reap. The former,
owing to medical ethics, do not
advertise; the latter, restrained
by no such foolery, do. The TN
cultured man Or woman, ailing,
puzzled, troubled, by some disease
| he does not understand, reads
these pretentious advertis e.
ments, spread out in the daily
papers, believes them, tries them,
is duped and robbed. Suppose
those advertisements had been
alongside DR.. Blanks stating
that he had been trained in the
great medical schools and hos
pitfalls. Aren't the chances good
that the patient would seek the
better doctor every time? But
cloaked in ethical q reserve, he
} remains incognito to many, while
the ignorant, snowy faker makes
a pretense of healing, and at
tracts the ignorant sufferer, Of
ten to his undoing.

TheneWspapers contain report.
ed interviews of leading South
ern statesmen like John Sharp
Williams, Senator Foster, JEFF
Davis and others, on the negro
phile episode in New York the
other day. All of these distin-
pushed Southerners character
ize the incident as disgraceful,
and utterly impossible in the
South; all emphasizing their hor-
ror of white acomen in such a
situation. That goes without
saying, but we should regard
stheirutterances as more weighty
if: they had denounced any and
all mixture of white and black.
The kernel of the matter is in
convincing white men, that to be
worthy of association with white
women, that they must keep
themselves separate from the
lower race; that in fact, it is On
them the preservation of race
purity lies.

AN ENCOURAGING PROSPECT

Notwithstanding the fact that
the country failed to poll it's full
strength at the recent election,
the vote was sufficient to save
the amendment reducing the
number of tax collectors in New
Orleans. And this despite the
contrary incontrovertible fact
that the ward bosses to a man
were actively against it, polling
every possible vote, and in par
ishes contiguous to New Orleans
enjoying support from voters
there.
This should be an encouraging
odject lesson to the country vot
ers. 1t shows them that it rests
with them, whether they shall bt
dictated to, over-ridden and OPP
pressed by the ward bosses
Whether they. shall take what
ever the heelers give them anc
say thank you" to boot rests
entirely with their suffrages.
The country voters need only
stand together to get anything
they want at the polls. They
usually want what is best for thu
entire state. Let them see to il
that they get it.

FATHER HOLTGREEE SUP
PORTED.

Father Holtgreve is the de-
voted Roman Catholic priest at
Plaquemine, whose stand in the
late campaign for higher morals
brought him into a prominence
made unpleasant by the unde-
served trouncing he received at
the hands of the fractional city
pressand the discipline of his
religious superior, Archbishop
Blenk. He was the uncanonized
martyr of the campaign. Al
ways working for better condi-
tions, MS paper, the Iberville
Sentinel, has been publishing
some communications relative to
abuses in school matters in that
parish. One of his c0rrespon-
dents mentioned G. K. SchWing,
as head and front of the offend
ing. SchWing resented it, and,
according to Father Holtgreve's
report of the affair, which is
without doubt correct, Schwing
sent two gentlemen to demand
of the editor-priest who was the
author of the alleged defamatory
paragraph. Father Holtgreve
communicated with the author,
who said he was willing to make
his identity known if Schwing
would meet him in the Sentinel
office. This SchWing did not do.
A delegation went instead to the
Archbishop, probably hoping and
expecting that the latter would
again humiliate and discipline
Father Holtgreye. This, the
Archbishop has not done; a
course which will be approved
by all who believe in liberty of
the press and of the individual,
and who consider it unjust to
saddle upon the priest what
some unknown person has done,
without giving the unknown the
opportunity to bear his own bur-
dens. To know Father Holt
greye is to be assured that he is
acting from the highest motives
of right.

MISREPRESENTATION Ia ".

In the movement for a rigid
miscegenation law, proceeding
from Shreveport, it should not
be forgotten that the initial step
in this direction was taken by
ST. Francisville, greatly to its
credit. Nor should our represen-
tatives in the Legislature allow
the matter to lag when the time
comes for action. We believe,
even without asking, that all the
representatives from the Felici-
anas will act and vote for race
purity.
1t is a crying need of the
South. It is our only salvation.
With the daily press of Tuesday
reporting white men and women
eating and drinking with ne
groes at a public banquet and
so prominent a man as the edi-
tor of the New York Indepen-
dent advocating intermarriage
as the solution of the race prob.
lem, the gradual bleaching of
the black race, a new slogan is
sounded for the Southern peo-
| ple to battle for the preserving
IIof the purity of Southern blood.
The full text of this piece OF
news is revolving and it's sug-
gestions disgusting in the ex,
IRENE. But it is only holding
the mirror up to nature of con-
ditions existing among us in the
South, race decentralization with
out the sanction of marriage,
gross animalism and hbertinism
polluting white youth and man
hood and rendering abortive all
efforts made to raise the stan,
dard of virtue among the ne.
groes. That the suggestions of
the Northern picture can still
shock us is the great sign of
hope in the situation. It.should
shock us into action. Crime
against race should be made a
felony. We hope to see the
Louisiana Legislature make
this announcement. It will
protect the purity of white blood.
1t will tend to higher morals by
the restraint it will place upon
men who are now in the face of
constant temptation.

To Teachers and Those Desiring to Teach

Summer schools for the pro-
fessional training of teachers
and prospective teachers will be
opened by the State Board of
Institute Managers on June 1st
in the following places: Martha,
vile, Bunkie, Alexandria, Lake
Charles, Franklinton, Gibsland,
Farmerville, Winfield. For
First Grade teachers a school
will be opened in Baton Rouge
on June 1st, and one in New Or
leans on June 22nd. It is my
earnest desire that every teach
er in the parish attend one of
these schools or take a full term s
work at the State Normal School
at Natchitoches. I am glad to
note that several have already
decided to dose.
The reports of the State Sup
erintendent show that only one
teacher from this parish attend
ed a summer school last year,
but three or four of the present
number of teachers attended and
we're engaged for work in this
parish afterwards. I ask every
one teaching in this parish, or
who will be engaged to teach
here, to register in the summer
schools from this parish, no mat
ter where their homes may be,
SO that this parish may receive
due credit for the professional
spirit and progress manifested
by it's teachers.
Superintendent Aswell writes;
There will be the usual short,
age of teachers this year and !
hope you will send a large mum.
Der of worthy young people who
desire to become teachers to the
summer schools. There is room
for all of them. The summer
schools this year offer to teach,
ers advantages that have not
been offered before. [ hope all
your teachers will attend"
[ shall recommend to the
School Board for employment
in the schools next session only
strong teachers and shall endeay.
Or to secure the very strongest
corps possible.
Very sincerely,
A. M. HENDoN,
Parish Supt.
