Edward Webster of Darlington, Wis., had her hair cut short recently, and now she is cutting a third set of teeth. i The success of the Normal School and T. B. Hospital bills fs striking evidence of the fairness with which' voters of Western Oregon, can be credited in any case of outstanding merit in which Eastern Oregon is primarily concerned. The people of this section are grateful they told their story ade quately and it received an intelligent hearing. All of La Grande regrets that the Grande Ronde Lum ber company's mill at Perry must be moved to Medical Springs. For more than a generation its operation hns been a large contributing factor to the progressive prosperity ot this community, and its organization has provided us with many active, intelligent, loyal citizens. Fortunately, the change of site will not cause a loss of all these advantages. La Grande will still be the headquarters of the company and the -center of its activities in many ways. If we can secure the completion of the county road into the new site from Telocaset, the old business contacts can be profitably main Uiined. This will be done eventually, we are sure', and the new residents of Medical Springs will , thus remain La Granders in spirit and in purpose though removed in location i-.'S,l!

Sunday; Library Plans Completed SUPERIOR CHILDREN. People are beginning to take an interest in the problem of the superior child. They are discovering, what educators have known for 30 years, that most schools are not fair to the bright child. Many of these people ar6 heading for the same mistake made by parents and educators when they . first began to observe that some children could learn more ! rapidly than others. They want to push .these children I faster along the road than the children of slower minds. That ; is not the solution of this problem. :The cliildren who were allowed to rush through their ; courses,, who reached high school' at eleven- aiid college at fourteen or fifteen where are they now? There was quite ' a large group of them in the public eye, or at least in the edu cational eye, for several years. These children are in their twenties now. And most of them are duds. They have failed signally to fulfill the promise of the early years. There are two main objections to the plan of letting chil dren hurry. One is that their social contacts are set askew. They are too young to play the games and enjoy the society of the others in their classes. They are not welcomed as playmates by those of their own age. The other objection is that they lack maturity of, experience to deal with courses planned for older children. Brightness is one thing, maturity quite another. They may recite glibly and yet not under stand. ,. The present plan now being tiied out in the best schools is the separation into sections of the slow, the average and the quick children. Each section covers the same minimum course of study. The slow minds can take time to Ik thor ough; the average work more adequately than when they were hampered by the presence children too slow and too fast for them; the quick children get an enriched course. While the slow child is getting one incident in history, the average child is getting it with sidelights. The hright child is get ting it in several books, making pictures, singing songs, per haps acting plays based on that incident. He is deepening and broadening his experience, without the nervous strain of trying to get hold of something too old for his years. "Nu one In Ii Grande wimld uitunlly permit another to ko cold uid ImiiKry if lie knew about it.
