Vast Human Changes.

Vast Human Changes.
What changes "on the map" the
war will make still await the great
peace conference to be told; but
already human society has been al
tered with SUCH swiftness as can
scarcely be parallel even in that Of
the French Revolution.
Russia has changed from. the
greatest example Of an absolute
and burdensome autocracy to the
world IS freest and most liberal de-
mocracy with itsreyeszset on ideals
as high as the stars.
The people rule in Russia after
centuries Of oppression, and in
many other nations the bonds
forged by birth and privilege are
giving way.
Germany has its first Imperial
Chancellor with a "von" to his
.name-a small, uncertain step to;
ward democracy, yet a ray of hope
The Junkers and the militarists are
still in the saddle, but their lati-
tude carefully nouNished slaves for
the first time have them worried:
In every country the Importance
Of government has increased. The
central authority has had to take
over powers it never possessed or
wished before. The people are
thinking more about their govern
ment, selfish thoughts perhaps, for
their leaders mean more to them
than formerly.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

The Chief is not responsible for
views expressed by correspondents.
AS to High School Needs.
Editor Chief
The dilapidated appearance of the
High School, taken in connection with
window shades in the Donaldsonville
the report of the grand jury pointing
| out this and other needs of the school,
has led to some mild criticism of my
action in erecting a flag pole and in
curing other expenses IN improving
the school grounds before attending
to these first needs.
For the information of any one
who holds these views | wish to state
that conservatively estimated it would
entail an expenditure of about $3.50
to provide new shades for all the win
dows of the high school, and much
more than that amount to install new
drinking fountains and repair the
ceilings of the various rooms. To do
either ofathese things would require
very much more than the means we
have available. The incidental fund
which is collected from the pupils
each year at most barely suffices for
the purchase Of fuel, chalk, erasers
and to meet other contingent eX-
penses of the school Some years,
this for example, there is even de-
felt. AS to the miscellaneous fund
which is raised through various school
entertainments and benefts-nota
bly, the school benefit nights gener-
ously accorded us by the Grand Thea
tre-there are many urgent needs to
which this, or at least part of it, has
to be applied.
One of my predecessors purchased
piano for the school at a cost of
1915, and of this amount my admins
tration inherited an Indebtedness of
$3.50. This has been gradually re-
duced each subsequent year. Last
session we foored and made otherwise
fit for the use of the domestic econ
omy department two of the large
basement rooms at cost of SOS,
three-fourths of which was paid last
year and the remainder this year. AS
this fund, out of which must come all
such expenses, is in no way sufficient
to Justify us in undertaking to meet
the larger needs of the school men
toned in the beginning, we have ap-
piled it to demands within our power
to meet.
Furthermore, we are bending our
efforts this year toward beautifying
and improving the school grounds and
in addition to what has already been
done we intend, before the end of this
session, to install several kinds of
gymnastic apparatus Ole play
grounds of the girls as @Vell as that
of the boys. These nteds, in my
opinion, are just as realNand import
ant as the ones mentioned by the
grand jury, and furthermore, they
are within our reach.
To make necessary repairs on the
school building, which, by the way,
has been neglected in this respect
since it's construction in 1906, and
provide it with the sanitary arrange
ments suggested, will cost from $500
to $1,000. The duty of providing this
money devolves either on the parish
or the city, or both. The expense Of
maintenance and repair, it seems to
me, should logically come from the
same source as the original building
fund.

ASSESSOR TO TOUR PARISH.
Taxpayers Requested to Fix Own Val
uation Of Property.

Assessor A. S. St. Amant has ad-
dressed the following circular letter
to the taxpayers of the sixth, seventh
and eighth wards:
Dear Sir:
''Under the terms of Act No. lao
Of 1916, creating what is known as
the Board of State Affairs, it is pro
vided, in order to equalize the value
of all property for the purpose of col
Letting state taxes, that the same shall
be assessed at its actual value; leav-
ing to the authorities of each parish
the right of levying, assessing and
collecting taxes and fixing the valua-
ton at a lesser amount for local pur-
poses,
sit is my purpose to endeavor to
reach personally all of the taxpayers
throughout the parish in order to en-
able them to fix for me the amount
which they consider to be the actual
value of their property. On account
of the short space of time before the
completion of the assessment rolls of
the parish | will be unable to visit
each taxpayer personally, SO I have
concluded to designate places where I
will request, for this year, all of the
taxpayers to meet me, and fill out and
sign the necessary documents estab-
fishing valuation Of their property.

and places to meet the taxpayers re-
siding at or near the places desig-
mated:

10 give me your estimate of actual
