jefferson Parish Fair.

"Seuth Louisiana Fair Day"
at the Jefferson Parish Fair,
to be held at Shrewsbury
from November Il to Is, will
be one of the biggest days
the program should attract
crowds from the parishes
making up the great South
Louisiana Fair Association.
Sunday, the closing day OF
the Jefferson enterprise, has
been dedicated to the South
Louisiana interests and Leo
A..Marrero, president of the
local fair body, with his asso-
ciates of the board of direc-
tors, will welcome with open
arms tie visitors that day.
Excursions will be run on
the different railroads.
Those who visited Jeffer-
sons first parish fair held
last year at Gretna, were en-
thused over the magnitude of
the ) undertaking and the
splendid results of the efforts
Of Mr.. 1Iarrero and his CO.
workers in attaining their
goal. The fair was declared
to have been one of the most.
complete in the entire state.
These local officials are
shooting higher this year and
they are confident of again
being successful.
While the program has not
been completed, it is certain
that Mr.. r. S. Vickers, Secre-
tary of the South Louisiana
FairAssociation, will be one
of the speakers. Other lea.
ders of that enterprise are exI
pected and Hon. w. W!
Lemann, mayor of Donald
sonville, will most likely
make an address also.
Illustrated lectures, music,
dancing and a round of other
pleasures have been arranged
and will provide ample amuse
men. for the visitors while
not viewing the interesting
exhibits. :,
AS the Jefferson fair will
be the last TO be held in the

one can picture the quality OF

Hylan Will Drop
Disloyal Teachers
Decides at Meeting With
New Estimate Board to
Eliminate Gary Plan

Judge John +. Hylan. Mayor-elect,
made it plain yesterday that all dis
loyal teachers in New York will have
TO go. He reached this decision fol-
lowing a conference on the Gary sys-
TEN held by members Of the Tammany
Board of Estimate that takes Office
January ! and three associate city su-
perintendents of schools.
At this conference it was decided
that the Gary plan would be eliminated
as soon as the new administration
comes into Office. When it was finished
Judge Hylan dictated the following
statement:
"Any person having charge Of the
moulding Of the mind of the youth OF
our country who is not in sympathy
with this government and its purposes
ought not to have that place
After the meeting Sheriff Alfred f..
Smith, member of the new board as
President of the Board of Aldermen,
told in three minutes what it had APP
parently taken the Mayor-elect and his
cabinet three hours TO discuss.
Present at the conference besides the
Mayor-elect and the Estimate Board
were three assistant city superinten-
dentr OF public schools, William L. Et-
finger, in charge of vocational activ-
tiles; Charles f. Melleny in control
OF evening schools, and Edward B.
Shallow, and Peter j. Brady, of the
Allied Printing Trades Council.
The principal subject of discussion.
said the Sheriff. was the retention OF
the Gary system or acceptance of an
adequate substitute. The Mayor elect
and the Board of Estimate asked the
school superintendent to outline their
ideas, so that they might have full
understanding Of the problem from the
mer who had active experience with IL.
ave discussed the different school
plans in operation" said Sheriff Smith.
"We heard from the three assistant
superintendent, who gave us detailed
descriptions of the systems as they are
now used They are the old straight
educational course, the Ettinger dual
school plan, the part time plan and,
/ last. the Gary system.
Mayor Hylan convinced the super
/ intendents that it will be his policy to
appoint to the new Board of Education
members who will work in harmony
with the professional educators. The
assistant superintendent are TO con-
fer with the rest of the members oil
their board, and will make a report
to Judge Hylan in two weeks"

"One of US stayed with the baby WINE,
the other went TO the door and talked

concluded:

Teachers Ask Wilson to
Frame Loyalty Pledge

The Teachers Union. which has en-
ployed legal cid to defend public
school teachers who are charged with
disloyalty, yesterday sent letter to
President Wilson asserting that the
teachers are now being coerced to sign
unfair" loyalty pledges and asking
him to frame pledge that will be ac-
ceptable to them.
The letter was signed by Henry r.
Liuville. president of the union. and
says:
now struggling to make the schools
safe for democracy by eliminating au-
tocracy. The forces OF reaction are
trying TO divide the forces Of democ-
racy by introducing the question OF
loyalty. Various kinds of unfair 10y
atty pledges are being forced upon the
teachers who, fearing to refuse TO sign
these, do so unwllingly and become
lukewarm in their allegiance to democ-
racy.
AT time when their enthusiastic
allegiance is imperative, will you not,
Mr.. President, as the leader OF the
world forces of democracy, frame q
loyalty pledge that all true lovers OF
democracy may take without violating
their conscience?
"You. sir. must be conscious Of the
critical dilemma in which we educators
find ourselves in war times. May we
call upon you, as great educator, to
enunciate an attitude toward the
crucial problems Of freedom of
thought, freedom of expression, the
function of criticism, the duties Of the
classroom teachers, with special refer
ence to margins-of freedom and Of toll
erance in war time?
knowing the burdens you are bear
ing, we are loath to appeal to you. but
the cause of democracy urges US on"
