DEATH OF A NOTED EDUCATOR

Prof. Joseph V. Calhoun, scholar and
educator and twice State Superintendent
of Education, died last Saturday in New
Orleans. While Superintendent of Educa-
tion Mr.. Calhoun periodically and almost
exclusively devoted his time to the upbuild-
ing of the public schools of the State. He
was a broad minded, publc-spirited man,
who scorned to make political machine of
his office. In short, he was friend of the
people, and conscientiously served the
people during the eight years the State was
blessed with his ripe scholarly administra
ton, during which time the three prosper
Gus high schools in this parish were estab-
lished, which stand as monuments to his
educational zeal and ability. Well may
the New Orleans Times-Picayune say:
"A man of ripe scholarship, of keen in
sight into human nature and human frail-
ties, with rare facility of imparting the
knowledge which he had garnered in life
long study, Prof. Calhoun was peculiarly
adapted to be an instructor of youth.
Public education has lost in him one of its
strongest pillars, and society in general a
genial and accomplished gentleman, of
magnanimous mind, of humanitarian i'm
pulses and of breadth of view not often
found in the man who has devoted his life
to scholarly attachments"
