Open Training Schoolfor Colored Teachers

There is being operated in Opelou-sas a summer training school for col-ored teachers. This school is operatedunder the department of education.The state authorities, working in har-mony with the several school boardsthroughout the state, are conductingthirty-three such schools for the pur-pose of recruiting teachers.

There is quite a shortage of quail-fled teachers among the negroes, andthe object of these schools is to in-crease the teaching force by 1000.Prof. Leo M. Favrot, supervisor of ru-ral schools for negroes, first conceivedthe idea. He has been successful insecuring the co-operation of all con-cerned. Prof. Prescott and the schoolboard of St. Landry, realizing the ne-cessity of such a movement, at oncelent their aid and influence to thismost worthy cause.

Prof. W. B. Prescott, superintnedentof schools, visited the school on Mon-day and addressed the teachers andprospective teachers. His address wasindeed, helpful. During his address

Supt. Prescott emphasized, not onlythe getting of a certificate, and aschool; but the teacher is to stressin his field of labor, "responsibility,"[

"moral elevation" and those thingswhich make for true citizenship."Honesty," said fe, "must be thewatchword of the teacher of tomor-row." He further had the teachers tounderstand that the teaching of the

three "R's" was only a small part ofhis work. His going into the commu-nity should mean the uplift of thatcommunity. His life should .be ofsuch as would command the respect

Df all the people. This school is torun a session of twelve weeks. Thesession began June 9, and will con-tinue until August 29. All young col

red persons who are able to qualifyshould enroll in this school. Some-

dme during the first week of Augustthere will be a "Farmers' Day," whenavery farmer of this and the surround-ng territory, will turn out. Therewill be exercises both day and night.It is hoped that every progressive far-

ner will come and bring his neighborwith him.
