ton and with a probable extension Of it down
into the Grand Prairie country ii the residents
there should feel disposed to desire such an ex-
tension, there will probably be every opportun-
ity to consolidate our schools into first class es-
adjustments and to provide higher ranges of
education than we are now doing.
There is hardly a county town in Ohio, or
Indiana, or Illinois wherein there is not special
provision made for the higher education for all
Of those earnest pupils who desire to 60 beyond
the ordinary grammar school education and to
train themselves as well as they can for such
higher education as will enable them readily to
enter readily into the study of the professions
OF medicine, law, architecture, civil engineer
ing or any of the v~ocations that call out and, in
fact, peremptorily demand this higher educa-
ton. Wherever these high schools are erected
the same buildings could be made to take care
OF our early high school venture and at the same
time to permit the consolidation Of three or
four grammar schools in the one building. The
shell road with c~arryalls running over it being
utilized to gather up the pupils, could thus come
from considerable distances with facility and go

back again with equal readiness.
We must keep in mind always the fact that
in this parish we have a coast line of a hum
dred miles on each side of the river and our
IL, GOO people are thus divided into two parts
and must necessarily be educated in two parts,
as the river is such a great one that 1t is scarce
ly practicable to have pupils cross it to go to
school. There is not another parish in the state
that has the long coast line that we have and
our population is scattered throughout the en-
tire country.
The fact that our people want education and
want it badly was demonstrated by an incident
recently related to us concerning one OF the
schools in the second ward. A little Italian boy
who aided his father in truck gardening, was
permitted to go to school last year and is row
attending school. He was an earnest student
and soon learned to read and write. tie ap-
piled fer permission this year to f,ing his little
sister 70 school. He was told that he might do
this, but that she would necessarily have to en-
tey st 2 lever grade than he was in. His re-
Spouse was that his little sister knew as much
as he did and on inquiry the fact was revealed
that the boy had taught his little sister each
evening what he had learned during the day,
so that she successfully kept pace with him in
acquiring the education that he is pursuing with
such earnestness. This led to further inquiry
and it was found that the boy had also taught
his own father to read and write apparently do
ing that successfully also. This is the true
spirit and children that grow up with these
ideas ind ambitions vii! make the Parish Of
Plaquemines a greater cover in the develop
n1ent Of this state in the future than it has been
in the past. We therefore earnestly wish that
this dream Of a high school on each side Of the
river in the Parish of Plaquemines will be early
realized.
