4 Public Necessity
Let's Have 1t.

Great progress has been
made ia the public school sys-
tenn Of the State. Schools are
now found in every nook and
corner and the benefit Of free
education is seen everywhere.
The result is a better grade
Of citizens. more enlighten-
ment, greater civilization.
Law and order have taken
the place Of chaos and lawless
pess. Virtue has displaced
vice and is now on the ascen-
dancy. A new era seems to
have daWned upon the coun-
try an era Of peace and good
will, Of social reforms aud pu
bile order, Of thrift and enter
prise. The education of the
people is the cause of this
great change; it is the secret
of that new and permanent
prosperity which now blesses
us and promises to bring hap
piness and contantment to all
our pc 1ple. travelling through
the State one notices the ma
ny improvements which have
been made Of recent years
and sees the great change
which has taken place in the
condition Of the people. Won
derful is the advance made in
every persuit Of industrial life
and many are the enterprises
which have sprung up, attest
ing plainly that the day Of |
"elbow grease alone at the
bellows" is Of the past. Sci
ence is invoked and it is mar
velons to note the effect. A
mid such scenes of goaheada |
tiyeness and prOgressiveness
shall Thibodaux remain salts
fied---content to let mattersl
remain as they are. No, a
thousands times. no! 1t must
not be said that any section /
of the state is ahead Of us.
We also must build, like
the other towns, m0numents
to education that future gene
rations to come in seeing the
BENEFICIAL eject may praise
in the shape Of
buildings. We must
provide for the wants of the
and thereby fulfill a
luty which W. owe to oursel- /
rs, our neighbor and our
oHntry' 5lhibodaux must
Tote the tax.

FAIRVIEW HAS GAINED FIVE FEET
Big Stream Flowing in From Meadow Brook Where Much Water is Ponded-Situation Greatly lm- pxoved But Sufficient Supply Has Not Been Ob- tained

Rain for two days and three nights. together with the two previous rain storms has put five feet of water in Fairview reservoir, and the probabil- ity is that it will continue to show an increase for several days. in spite of the consumption. During Tuesday morning there was but little rain, the measurement in the morning showing .33 of an inch since the measurement at l o'clock Monday afternoon, but the measurement at Fairview on Tues- day showed a further gain of eight inches, or total at that time of 59 inches, the water being 297 inches be- low high water mark. From all sources water is running in good sized streams into Fairview, and the "A inch pipe from Meadow brook is belching forth full stream. There is much water bonded at Meadow brook, where the water on Tuesday was 16 inches over the "A inch intake pipe. During Tuesday afternoon and evening thero was considerable rain fell, much more so than in the morning, so that there ought to be as large an addition to the reservoir today as on Tuesday, al- though as the reservoir fills it takes more water to cause it to rise an inch than when it was at it's lowest.
 Supt. Corkery estimates that about a million and half gallons of water are being used daily now and that Fairview and Mohegan lake are fur niShing about an equal amount. At F'airview, however the water has not risen to a height sufficient for the wa ter to enter the pipes through the large strainers, and the superintendent figures that the condition a to the supply is about the same as at the last of October, although the drouth has been broken and more rain may be looked for However, the situation is not such that we have any water to spare or that the supply can be count ed on as sufficient. The rain has help ed us wonderfully, but even with the water we now have on hand, it only goes to show how much worse off we have been, though it is bad enough now. Last year on January the reservoir was down 209 inches, while today. it is down 297 inches, or 85 and necessary to depend upon an aux Hilary supply for half of the amount consumed daily, even under curtaii- ment. The pumping is still going on at Mohegan lake, and will have to for some time yet. The pond is holding it's own well, the rain being of much value there, as like at the other ponds, good sized brook is pouring in there to help.
 While the work on the filling of the trench has had to be stopped because of the rain. yet the rain is settling the dirt and packing it about the pipe line much better than it could other wise be done.
 Can Start When Wanted.
