was given by :he High School Library
Society, which has chosen to call them­
selves the Yellow Jacket Society. The
program had in it all the zip and go,
that the insect, after which the society
is named, is capable of imparting.
The debate was carried out in a way
that would have done credit to debat­
ers of much wider experience.
The “society paper” was newsy,
spicy and clever. There is talk of pub­
lishing parts of these papers.
A song by the ladies chorus was ren­
dered in a very pleasing way. We find
that we have considerable musical
talent in the high school.
A scene from Macbeth, given by
the Eleventh grade English class,
showed well for the work being done in
that grade.
Recitation and instrumental music
helped to make the program a decided
success. There will be more to follow.
If you enjoy things of this sort, drop
in, you are welcome.
The school year is half gone. We
are well under way now and we mean
to do a third more work the coming
semester than we did the last.
The High School enjoys Collier’s
Weekly that the board so kindly got
for us.
We are all very sorry to lose Miss
Wright, who was obliged to give up
her work because of the death of her
father. Our sincere sympathies go
with her. She returns to her home in
Ohio.
Mrs. Peter has taken up Miss
Wright’s work. She takes to the work
quite naturally.

High School Once More Victor.
Last Friday the Central Point high
school basket-ball teams were again
defeated by the local high school.
Three games were played. The girls
won easily by a score of 18 to 3. Ul­
rich alone threw six field baskets
which counted for two thirds of the
points. Hester was back in the game
and she sure did play some.
The boys had a harder fight, but
finished strong with a score of 18 to 14
in thirty minutes play. Coleman as
usual threw the majority of the
baskets.
The junior boys game was ours from
the start. Our boys excelling in both
team work and shooting baskets. Score
16 to 4.
The Central Point people are game.
They say, “We will settle with you
when we meet you on our home
grounds!!” A party of twenty-five
Central Pointers were at the game.
Basket Ball.
Next Tuesday evening the High
School Boys will try out with the Med­
ford High School Boys at basket-ball.
Medford has a strong team. Our boys
are playing good ball and all that can
be said is: It will be a good game.
The feature of the evening will be
the game in which our High Schoo)
Girls play the “Portland Negroes.”
We have been fortunate in scuring
this team for this date. This is the
only negro team on the coast. You
can’t afford to miss seeing them play.
Spelling Contests.
Superintendent of Schools, J. Percy
Wells, has mailed a letter of which the
following is a copy, together with cir­
culars giving the rules of the contests
to the teachers of Jackson county.
The dates for the contest as given in
the circulars are: Jan. 28. Feb. 25,
March 25, April 22, and May 20.
Although the inauguration of these
contests means much additional labor
in the Superintendent’s office the work
will be freely performed for the sake
of the benefits to the pupil» of the
county. The letter follows:
To the Teachers of
Jackson County, Oregon:
Acting in accordance with the decis­
ion of the County School Superintend­
ents’ Convention held at Salem last
summer, to make “better spelling”’
one of the objective aims of the pres­
ent school year, I have inaugurated a
series of spelling contests for the re­
mainder of the year, which is fully ex­
plained in the enclosed circulars.
It is earnestly hoped that all of the
teachers of the county will avail them­
selves of this opportunity to increase
the interest in spelling in their respect­
ive schools. The old time spelling
school was productive of much good,
and the schools of Jackson county will
receive much benefit from this series
of contests, if the teachers will take
hold of it in the right manner. The
spirit of contest is born in every nor­
mal child, and it is often by an appeal
to this desire to excel others that wi
get the best results in school work.
All cannot secure the prize offered,
but all can be benefitted for having
tried. Put your school in line, and if
you cannot head the list, be as near
the head as possible.
Yours truly,
J. P ercy W ells ,
County School Sup’t.
Cured of a Severe Attack of Bronchitis
by Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
“On October 18th, last, my little
three year old daughter contracted a
severe cold which resulted in a bad case
of bronchitis,” says Mrs. W. G. Gibson,
Lexington, Ky. “She lost the power
of speech completely and was a very
sick child. Fortunately we had a bot­
tle of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy in
the house and gave it according to the
printed directions. On the second day
she was a great deal better, and on the
fifth day, October 23rd, she was entire­
ly well of her cold and bronchitis, which
I attribute to this splendid medicine.
I recommend Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy unreservedly as I have found
it the surest, safest and quickest cure
for colds, both for chilbren and adults,
of any I have ever used.” For sale by
City Drug store.
