St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1914-10-03
ENTHUSIASTIC START
MADE BY LOCAL HIGH
Rousing Meeting Held at
St. Landry High School
Monday Morning.

The Opelousas High School,
| headed by Professor Prescott
and Miss Belle Dupre, made a
very enthusiastic start in the
Clarion's big popularity school
contest, when on Monday morn
ing about four hundred pupils
and all of the teachers of the
school gathered in the auditori-
UNI to talk over plans to be pur-
sued by the local school in the
popularity contest.
On account of the Opelousas
school being unable to open at
| the same time with the other
schools throughout the parish it
was thought that Professor Pres
colts workers would be at a dis
advantage in starting after the
others in the contest. But Mr..
Prescott alert to the situation
and realizing that Opelousas had
to show its real progressive spir-
it decided TO gather his pupils at
the school house to discuss this
important matter.
When the seats in the audito-
rum were all filled Mr.. Prescott
addressed the pupils. telling
them that the Opelousas school
was in dire need of a new instru-
ment and that the pupils had a
splendid opportunity, through
the Clarion popularity school
contest, to win for their school
an excellent Kingsbury piano.
He urged them not to be afraid
of the other schools and to show
that this city is really the most
progressive in the parish by WIN
ming the first prize in the school
contest.
Miss Dupre, who has taken a
great deal Of interest in the con-
test, also addressed the pupils,
assuring them that if the co
operated with her Opelousas
would be found on top when the
contest would close.
Within twenty minutes after
the meeting held at the school
house the pupils of the loca
school could be seen in various
sections of the city besiegine
