Tamnmany Teacher. Editor St. Tammany FARMER: as a teacher, and friend of you and Supt. Evans, feel possessed of a inclination to say a few words in behalf of our honorable friend and Superintendent, Mr. W.

G. Evans, First, I must say, that as a Superintendent of Education he has done more for the Parish of St. Tammany than many give him credit for. He most assuredly manol feste deeper interest in the teachers and school work than many of us do. He strives diligently to assist us to becoming better teachers ev.

ery year. He is pleasant of manner and ever ready aiAd fully competent tc give as light upon any subject we may approach to him. Mr. Evans is a man who is work, Ing for his country's welfare; eves ready to help in a good cause. Some people delight in finding fault; but fault finders seldom dc much for themselves nor anyone else.

The "Perfect Man" has never ap. peared on the scene; at least, ev erybpdy's "Perfect Man." There is no editor, no doctor, no preacher, no lawyer in fact, no professional man; and last, but not least, nc teacher, who is the "perfect" one to everybody; and while many eriticisei Mr. Evans, wish to say that he is not the "Perfect Man," buat he is St. Tammany Parih's inter. ested and fully competent Superintendent of Education.

He is up it 'iOtir'masn 'nights when the majority of St. Tammany's people are enjoying sweet repose Working; for whom? Why, every living soul in St. Tammany! It cannot be for himself No, Indeed. 1He has his education, and could fill any other good position; and one more pleasant, no doubt, than his present one. However, since he hbs chosen 'this.

responsible vocation, let us help him more in 1907 than we ever have heretofore. Thanking kind Editor, for the space I have occupied, and wishing our Superintendent success and the good, will of mhny (can't be all he isn't the "Perfect I bid you aurevoir, but not good bye. Hope to meet you all again soon. PEARLINE.
