Mrs. Thompson said; " N e w is the
time when the full strength of tbe
school is needed us never before. In
New York city the schools are running
only half time on account of the
nhortage of teachers. In Oregon 230
school houses are locked up for lack

school* by the thousand* for more re
munerative positions. Normal school
attendance has fallen o ff 50 per cent
because young men and women do not
wish to prepare for a profession which
does not offer a living wage. The
money raised by the two mill tax will

Ralph H'xJjc, a live young student
from the University of Oregon, gave
an interesting talk following Mr«.
Thompson’s address, explaining the
aeeda of the college institutions of
Oregon and difficulties they are con

with tbe increased attendance of the

Oa*
In addition to ita many other re
source«, it may be found that Cottage
Grove is built above a gas and oil
field.
Heveral years ago a well was drilled
at the plant of the Cottage Grove
Fleetrie company. A fter the drill* had
gone down several hundred feet, gus
bubbles came to the surface. It was
then discovered that the water eon
tamed too much mineral to be of use
in the boilers and when the drills
gave back a hollow sound, work was
stopped for fear that a gas pocket
might be tapped that would endanger
the eity. Nothing further has ever
been dune to investigate the probabil
ity of such a supply but the gns bub
bles ever since have eontinned coming
to the top of tbe water, which is an
artesian supply. There are the tidal
indications usually found in an oil

were pulled out they were working in
sandstone of the nature in which oil
and gus are found.
