A PRACTICAL TEST OF
YOUTHFUL ORAToRY
The Opera House is a Center Of
Spirited Debate and Some
excellent Defamation.

Last Friday night the pupils OF
the High School entertained a
great audience at the Opera House
with debate, defamation and ora
tory of more than ordinary
excellence. The object of this
literary exhibition was to select
the best representatives of the
High School who excelled in
these lines to represent this
institution in a North Louisiana
meet of several institutions, which
will be held sometime in May,
during the present year.
The judges selected to pass on
the merits of the several contes-
tants, were Hon. j. j. Nixon,
school Superintendent, Senator
X. w. Oglesby and Hon. II. r.
Gamble. The exercises were
presided over by George Bozeman
who announced the programme,
perfacing his duty with some well
timed and appropriate remarks.
The programme was opened
with an excellent piano rendition
by Miss Ruby Moss, that received
hearty appeause. The Debate
followed on "Resolved, that VIM.
J. Bryan is a greater American
than Danial Webster" Affirm
alive: Harley B. Bozman. John
Peters, Jr. Negative, Ayerett
Watts, Huey p. Long, Jr. The
debate exhibited q thorough
knowledge of the lives and
characters of these distinguished
statesman, and was interspersed
with flights of eloquence and
chaste language, showing both
study of the subject and careful
preparation. Each speaker was
heartily applauded by the In
terested audience.
A musical number was given by
E. Flick on the violin, with Miss
Ida Wallace, Pianist and Miss
Eva Sewers. The performance
received an encore. The
tleclamatory contest followed on
the subjects: "The Plumed
Knight" Ed McMiun; 1.-The
periis of the Nation" Everett
S. Flick, and "The Liberty
Speech" Webster Godfrey.
This contest elected the closest
attention. The CONTESTANTS ex-
hibited ability of more than
ordinary excellence and creditably
acquitted themselves.
Next followed a piano duet by
Misses Ida Wallace and Ethel
Allen that was harmonious
musical rendition that elected
the hearty approval of the
audience followed by orstions by
Geo. E. Bozeman on "Redeeming
the Time," and Sam S. Godfrey
on "American Greatness" which
were q credit to the youthful
orators. A piano duet by|
Misses Elva and Mae Crawford
was q fitting Unable to the

ions of judges. He explained the
difficulties under which the judges
labored. but announced that they
had agreed that Harley Bozeman
of the affirmative, stood first in
excellence in debate and inform
alton of the question and Huey
P. Long, Jr., CT the negative,
second yet in point of argument
the negative had the best of the
contest. In defamation the
honor was awarded to Everett s.
Flick.
ThIs concluded the first literary
exhibition of the proficiency of
the High School scholars in debate
and defamation, with admirable
musical numbers to add pleasure
to the entertainment. Those who
cared to listen, or were able to do
so amid the noise occasioned by
boisterous boys, were thoroughly
entertained, and really enjoyed
the program rendered.
