With a McmtM'rsliip r Seventy lieconntieml John Ponovuu as Fire Cliief. IWS OF "HE COLLEGE CUlAm-ATES ARE FREE TO TEACH Salem, Ore. After considering the questions entering into the standardi sing of the colleges of the state, the board appointed for that purpose at yesterday's meeting decided that the only equitable manner In which to deal with the subject was to pass a resolution temporarily standardizing all colleges in the state, so that all the graduates of this year might be bene fited by the law nn 1 leave the per manent work for the benefit of the students to the United States Bureau of Education. The law was passed by the legisla- ture, and provided that the work of standardizing the colleges should de volve upon the United States Bureau of Education, but provided that in the event the latter should refuse to act, a board appointed by the State Super intended of Public Instruction might act instead. 'While the bureau has not refused to act, it was realized that before it can do so the graduating period of most of the colleges will be over, and the students being graduated will receive no benefit, and it was with a vew of avoiding this that yester day s action was had. Under the law a graduate of such listed college la entitled to teach in any high school of a four-year course without the necessity of taking a state examina tion. (Special Correspondence.)

I told him I would k"ep it up until I found a man with a tem P'nment to match my own who could love mo as never woman was love. before."

FISHERMEN ORJECT TO COLUMBIA RIVER MIXES Salem, Or.

Merchant is based upon CIRCULATION The strength or tlie weakness of n publication is in the circulation. As one publisher truthfully says, "nothing succeeds like circulation." Clever advertising managers may prevail upon an advertiser to give his publication a trial, lid no argument he could devise could make him 8tich unless he secures results. We can remember an in stance where a publisher who realized the importance of circulation as the basis of success not taking any advertis ing for the first two years bis paper was published. What he first wanted was a large circulation. He was aware that without it those who might be induced to use space would not receive fair returns, and they as permanent ad vertisers might be spoiled. When he did take advertising it proved profitable. He also found that the cost of get ting business was much less, as one advertiser was quick to tell another of his success.
