A GOOD MOVE Another step in the right direction, was when the board adopted a resolution ad vancing the scale of wages paid the teachers. This movement sir uld draw a high class of teachers, the first necess ity of a good school. The resolution was introduced by F. S. Ivanhoe, which originally read that appli cants a teachers in La Grande schools must have had five years experience. An ammendment to this clause was adopted, which made it read three years. The resolution was adopted as follows: RESOLUTION Be it resolved, that the present school wages of the high school and the graded teachers in the public scnools of La Crande Oregon, shall be increased as fol lows: One high school teacher, from $65 to THE BOOK THAT DID IT Pendleton book stores report increased sales of "The Jurgle," by Upton Sinclair, the book which caused the packing house investigation. "The Jungle" deals with the packing house industry and ccntains bold state' ments which actuated the president to start the packing house delving. Results have justified everything said in novel. But the investigation has convinced the president that Sinclair did not tell it all in "The Jungle." The public may thank Sinclair for the shaking up. Pendleton E. 0.

The annual report of the State labor Commissioner, places Union Count third in the slate, in the cmploment of labor It requires 194 solid trains of fourtv cars each to carr the produce of our c ount to the market, more than a trai r ever other da throughout the ear. "An admirable climate." The past winter only for a few hours did the mercury reach zero. No excessive heat in the summer and our cool refreshing nights cannot be appreciated by the residents of the east until they are permitted to enjoy them Our soil is rich and productive. Were we to mention yields they would not "be believed. The only way to become acquainted with this "Garden of Eden" is to personl visit this land of diversity, as when you see the crops growing and harvested they speak for themselves. Our forrests will require many many decades of the present activity before they begin to yield and we now have thirty or more saw mills which give employment the year round in the mills and logging camps J The only sugar beet factory in the state is located at La Grande, the County Seat of Union Countv Wh'8he!rnrlf.0nHf 6;000' Pro$resWV? awake people who extend the glad hand I to 2 II Th". i the commercial, educational and social center of the county. . .
