The Oak is published by the b(u 'ents of the Vasalia (Cal.) High Sch ool. It is gotten up in a neat and attractive, manner and contains twenty pages of inter esting maftr. Of the 13 columns of reading matter in the last issue of the W ashinglonian, about ten columns were copied from exchanges; nearly 'two columns of state and out-side news and slightly over one column devot ed to local n fws about the school. The advertising columns of The Cue speak well for its business management. The Cue is ably managed ' in every res pect. The Glee Club, of the Agricultural Col lege at Pullman, has just returned from a tour of the Sound." Fn speaking of the suc cess of the trip The Evergreen says, in part: "That the tour was a success is hard ly a fair statement. It was more than a success it was a brilliant triumph." We are sorry to see a bright little journal like The Native American so careless in its press work. They are making hay, already, at the Phenix (Ariz ) School.
