KJLPATRICK AT SPRINGFIELD HELD ACTIXG SLTERINTEXDEXCY ur lOUSTY HIGH. Former La Grand Youth Inaugurates a ew System at Springfield. University of Oregon, Eugene, Ore pv. l.-MSpecial) Earl Kllpatrick, formerly a La Grande boy, and mem ber of the class of 1909 of the Uni versity of Oregon Is principal of the Springfield high school. Since recelv ln this position, a month ago. Mr, Kllpatrick has adopted the plan of allowing students in pedagogy at the university, which Is only two miles away, to practice teaching in his school. The same plan has been In practice in the Eugene high school for several years and the adoption of the policy by Principal Kllpatrick makes it possible for all of the seniors in the department of education to get' ft touch of practical experience before accepting positions in high , schools of thte state. , Both in college and out of It, Mr. Kllpatrick has made a noteworthy rec ord. , While in the university he wan champion debater and orator and was editor of the college newspaper. For two years Immediately following his graduation he was principal of the high school at Oakland, Oregon. His work here was creditable as was shown by the high standard tb which h raised the school. Leaving this position this fall he became acting superintendent of ' the Lane county schools, which Is a highly important position, as Lane county is the larg est In the state and boasts of fine schools. After mature deliberation, and the, playing of some politics, the county court on the ground of the ex treme youth of Mr. Kllpatrick , gavj the permanent position to an older man. . - Kllpatrick, upon hie merits, was Im mediately offered the prlnclpalshlp of the Springfield schools and without hardly a break in his winter's work he went from the county superln tendency to his present position. Mr, of that which he received during the month he was county superintendent Is pretty good for a 22-year-old boy Just two years out of college. There is a great demand on the un iversity for its graduates to act as teachers and principals in the high schools of the state, ; A job is assured every graduate ln.th-a educational de partment who has made -a creditable record, as the demand for first cla teachers Is greater than the supply. Thirty-two members " of last year's graduating class are now" teaching at salaries ranging around $100 a' month. To Whom It May Concrnt : (Kiegardine the La Granda Manufac turing company which Is now makln? the automatic threshers at the Walla Walla plant, being interested in that line of machinery, I have Just return ed from a trip of Investigation from Walla Walla. 1 find that on looking over the machine which has teem in use the past season, that It Is going to be of great Interest to tlw farme In the way of saving grain. Bavins; straw and a great reduction of hired libor. separator, feeder, hoist and derrick mounted on one truck, doiL away with the hoe down men arid denick teams. The machinery will save one half of the labor and more jrairi by having a steady feed that can le regu lated while the machine Is in motion. The machine will be built in sizes -.o suit the purchasers. I met tho mana ger, Mr. John Shanks and. I find him to be a very conservative and reliable man. The statement of his plans ars as follows: ; , .

The beardted .lady lifts the thousand pound dumbbell from tlu chest of the strong man; he Jumps fori her. takes. hereto his arms, whiskers and all. ' ' '.' . Thef. Wrong Patient Dr. Goodwin, veterinary surgeon; is In love with Cissy- Morgan. Her father, a rheuma tic, objects to the doctor's attentions to his daughter. ' Mr. Morgan's horse la taken sick and Dr. Goodwin prescribes for the much valued animal. About the same time Mr- Morgan's attendant sends for an M. D. 'to visit his master, and pre scribe for his ailments. The young veterinary hands the prescription for the horse to the ser vant with; instructions to take him out in the open air, trot him about briskly, and rub him with Nag's lini ment, glvo him a cold bath with the' hese. wrap him with a blanket and al low him to rest.' .The servant, sup posing that the prescription Is for his Mt.On.

There 'is no doub tin. my mind that the machine is what the farmer Is looking for. GEORGE MILLER, Covo. Fan at the Isls.
