An Interesting meeting of parents and teacher was held at Kstacada Kuturduy, County Superintendent Gary presiding. Miss Hewitt, tbe teacher of the primary grades In the KxLacada school, gave an Instructive demonstration of methods In reading, and her pupils gave a dramutl.utlon. Professor Howsrd James, principal of tbe Kstacada school, presented "Faults and Excellencies of the Ore gon School 'System." He commend ed the supervision of rural schools, pointing out tnat the supervisor has a large nem ror nis work in oversee ing the school and especially In Im proving tne equipment and sanitary conditions. The new certification law, be said, may make it too easy for poor teachers to remain In the profession of teaching. The method of special taxation needs revising, he declared. Mr. Devore, a teacher In tbe Es- tscada High School, opened the sub ject, "Peculiar Natural conditions which Affect Oregon Schools." It might lie better to have the school In session to November, she said, thus escaping tbe very bad traveling and dark, stormy weather of mid-winter. This plan would also enable tbe teacher to Instruct objectively In ag riculture. High schools should be within travelling distance of all stu dents who are ready for the work, that Is, blgh schools should be very numerous In Oregon, she declared. A quartet of High School girls of Estacada sang very sweetly, "Hark to tbe Mandolin." The quartet con sisted of Rachel Reed, Myrtle Woodle, Nina Taylor and Una Harkenrider. Mrs. Devore accompanied tbe quartet and followed them with a beautiful solo, "Where the Pour-leaf Clovers Grow." She wa accompanied by Rachel Reed. Mr. Devore re sponded to tbe encore with "If Had tbe Key where tbe Smile are Kept." Miss Reed rend ered a piano solo, "Tbe Hunting Song," In a pleasing way. Mrs. Tate, president of tbe Oregon Parent-Teacher Aaoclatlon, address ed the Institute upon the value of tbe organization which she represents. She pointed out tbe need of a mutual understanding between parents and teachers, and of co-operation In tbe very Important work of training and Instructing children. Mothers and father and teacher ought to "get to gether,'' and a good way In which to do this Is through organization, she declared. County Superintendent Gary ex pressed the opinion that the time is now ready for the organization of Parent-Teachers' Club. Commissioner Mattoon spoke In structively upon tbe help that the parent might render the teacher and thus tho child. He Indicated that tbe parent may give tbe child Intelligent Instruction upon the code of the school, thus helping both the child and the teacher. Professor James spoke of the error that some parents made In being prej udiced against tbe teacher by tbe re ports brought by tbe child. A bet ter way would be to confer with tbe teacher quietly In order to understand hi policy. A neutral attitude Is best until tbe parents fully understand the case. Mr. Gary said that teachers and principals should always be Invited to attend the meetings of the School Board. This enables tbe teacher to report the condition of the school and to make requests for supplies and Improvements. Parents should bring complaints to the board meetings, in stead of publishing the complaints abroad. A. A. Baldwin, principal of the schools in West Oregon City, spoke upon "Professional Ethics." He spoke of the relation of the teacher to bis pupils, declaring the teacher owes his best to the pupils. Honesty I both right and politics, be said. Mr. Gary expressed high apprecia tion of the fine work the boys and girls of the Estacada High School did In serving lunch. Professor James read a paper upon "Health In Education." Often the rural school breathes overheated im pure air and sits in badly-arranged seats. Careful attention should be given to physical conditions, he said, in order to have "sound minds In sound bodies." LUDWIO SCHWABACHER, CROWN COMPANY'S FIRST MANAGER, STRICKEN.

Carter and William Ham mond, who were appointed some time ago to draw up a constitution for the club, reported that they had made progress. Tbe common opinion of all present seemed to be that the club should do all In Its power to assist the Council In the early completion of the water system and the improvement of tbe principal streets. Charles Hageman praised the Council for the business like way In which It Is taking up these matters. He said: "I believe the Council Is right In as suming that It Is not a question for tbem to decide whether or not Glad stone shall have a water system. That question has been decided twice by the vote of tbe people. The only ques tion for tbem Is, how soon, consistent with good business Judgment, can the plant bo put In operation?" Several speakers Insisted that the work on tbe streets be pushed aa rap- Idly as possible. There is considerable speculation as to who will be elected president of tbe club. At the meeting the follow ing name were suggested: Harry Williams, Charles Hageman, C. W. Parrish, T. E. Gault, Hugh Hall, R. Freytag and T. C. Howell.

FEVER IMMUNITY IS OPEN TO ALL HAWLEY INVITES CITIZENS TO TRY VACCINATION AGAINST TYPHOID. MILL WORKERS BEING INNOCIMD President Taft Describes How 8erum . Has Virtually Eradicated Disease From Army. Convinced that vaccination against typhoid fever is a preventative W. P Haw ley, president of the Hawley Pulp & Paper Company, who is having tbe employes of the company Innoculat ed with tbe serum, bas issued an in vitation to all residents of the city to be vaccinated. Those taking advant age of the generous offer will be ex pected to pay for the serum, but Mr. Hawley will provide the services of the physician. While a thorough In vestigation bas revealed that there are few cases of typhoid In the city in fact fewer cases than usual In the winter there is every reason to be lieve that tbe generous offer of Mr. Hawley will be taken advantage of by a large number of citizens. Dr. M. C. Strickland, who is innc culating the workers is progressing rapidly with the work, and will soon give several of the employes a second treatment There is little pain con nected with the vaccination, and, un like that for the prevention of small pox there are no after-effects. Regarding the efficacy of the ty phoid vaccinations President Taft, in speaking of mobilization of troops on the Texas border, in an address before the Medical Club of Philadelphia, said: "The percentage of typhoid cases in the Spanish-American war was so blgh that it Is bard to believe of 120,000 men, there were 20,000 cases, with a case mortality of 7 per cent. Of the volunteer regiments mobilized during the Spanish-Ameri can war 90 per cent became Infected with typhoid fever within eight weeks from the date of mobilization. With the modern health regulations and by tbe use of vaccination against ty phoid, not one case of typhoid fever appeared In tbe entire force in Texas, except that oi one teamster who was not vaccinated. It is hard to credit the accuracy of such a record, but, as I have it definitely from the war or flee, I can assert it as one more in stance of the marvelous efficacy of recent medical discoveries and prac tice." PROBE OF LIVE WIRES SETS AT REST REPORTS OF EPIDEMIC. DR. WHITE MAKES INVESTIGATION Postmastsr Randall Rtport That Thers Is Little Hop For Federal Building Ap propriation Now. There is no longer any fear that there will be a typhoid fever epldemlo in Oregon City. A thorough investi gation by a committee of tbe Live Wires of which P. J. Tooze 1 chair man, has revealed that there are only six or seven cases In the city, and every precaution Is being taken to prevent a spread of the diseases. In fact it is all but certain that the vic tims contracted the disease outside of tbe city. Mr. Tooze reported that Dr. Calvin S. White, president of the State Board of Health, wa In the city Monday and conferred with Dr. J. W. Norrls, city health officer. Ac companied by Dr. Norrls, Dr. White visited the patients, and it was found that none of them was in a serloua condition. Dr. White will make a re port of conditions here in a few day. Mr. Tooze said that samples from the intake and other sections had been sumbltted to chemists in Port land for analysis, and that the city would continue tbe investigation. He- said that only three school children bad the disease. Dr. White made an examination of a sample of the water sent him sometime ago by Dr. Norrls and found no typhoid germs. Chief of Police Shaw, working In connection with the health and police committee of the City Council, has ordered a thorough cleaning of the city. Railroad street was cleaned last week and other sections will be given attention this week. The Live Wires decided to hold one evening session monthly hereafter. This means there will be only three luncheons monthly. The organization has matters before It which cannot be given proper consideration during tbe luncheon hour and these subjects will be taken up at the evening ses sions. Dinner will be served at 6 o'clock at tbe evening sessions and after that business will be considered. T. P. Randall, postmaster, reported that blue prints of tbe interior and exterior of the postoffice had been sent to the representatives in Con gress and the United tSates Senate from this State, and all the necessary data, showing tbe Inadequacy of the present building and the need of a Federal building.
