FRIENDS OF EDUCATION.

In another column of this issue of
the Journal appears the announce
ment of the opening exercises of the
school which will be held on call of
the principal, Prof. VIM. A. McGuff
at the auditorium next Monday morn
ing at 10 o'clock.
1t is a time worn custom to hold
closing exercises at the end of each
school year. These school exercises
are intended to display publicly what
has been accomplished in learning by
the teachers and the principal dur
ing the year, and more often than
not the pupils are the goat. The I'M
dertaking of show of accomplish
ment is overdrawn and the parents
find to their own chagrin that their
children have not been trained as it
was thought they were being train
ed. Pride, however compels them to
maintain silence on the subject and
it is partly forgotten before the next
year rolls around and the perform
ance is repeated.
The idea of holding opening ex-
crcises will appeal to great many
patrons of the school, especially if
they stop to reflect seriously, as we
urge that they do. To illustrate our
meaning we will take the garden for
soil and fertilize it and pulverize it
an example. You may spade up the
ever so well but if you plant no
seeds your cultivation will bring no |
results and the beds will eventually |
grow up to weeds. You may furnish
the best of school houses, we'll equip
ped with good teachers, but if there is
lack of full cooperation between
the teachers, the parents and the pu-

pills, results will be very poor indeed.
And here it is that the opening
exercises offer an opportunity for
the friends of education" to get to-
gether and plan for the accomplish
ment of the best possible results.
We urge that every person in the
community who is in any way inter
ested in education, whether a patron
of the school or not attend the open
ing exercises of the Welsh High
school at the auditorium next Mon
day morning at 10 O'Clock.

HOW WILL Mr.. HALL
EXPLAIN THIS ONE
He Failed Democracy, Will Democra-
cy Reward Him Now?

The following from the St. Fran
cisville True Democrat has not been
contradicted as yet by the New Or.
leans Item, so it may be assumed that
the charges are true:
"Those who stood by their Democ.
racy in the 1915 campaign who held
lnviolate their primary pledges in
the face of all temptations and
against every force to set those
pledges aside surely cannot look with
complacency upon candidate, who
failed to vote in the Democratic pri-
mary, and who again failed to vote
in the general election although the
fate of a Democratic candidate for
governor was at stake. Nor was he
who thus failed to stand by Democ-
racy in its time of stress private
individual, whose course might be
hidden in his own obscurity, but it
was the then governor of Louisiana,
whose position alone made the
strongest urge that he should rec
ognize and fulfill the obligations to
his party. Other governors and
public men make it point Of hon.
or to go home to vote, but Luther E.
Hall ignored such precedents and
voted in neither primary nor gen.
eral election although his course laid
him open to the charge Of party in
personal feeling and O.
nally lack of loyalty to his party.
His reasons for such action have
never been satisfactorily explained
TO this day, those given being utterly
and entir ly futile and absurd.
Recalling this circumstance alone.
it is inconceivable that any among
lis of those, who fought the good
'lShC-dhd Won-alOng the lines OF
fidelity to party and the inviolacy to
support the present candidacy of
Luther E. Hall, the man whose sig
nal delinquencies in this respect are
matters of record. 1t will be a bit
ter pill even to meet him in a pri-
nary, which perhaps may bind one
20 his support ultimately, because
IT party principle which he him
self did not respect when such OBJ
'ervance would have displayed true |
moral greatness. 1t is to be hoped |
hat majority of the voters in the |
Democratic primary will not put this |
est upon those who have faithfully (
'orne such tests in the past"
