T SCHOOL,"NOTES ~1 J School opened Monday after having been closed for one month. The students and teach ers found the floors all newly oiled and also new window boords at all the windows. Basket hall practice is schedu led to betfin as soon as the lijihts come on. There are prospects of a very Rood team this year for many of the l»est players are still in school. A Rood many in teresting and exciting vrames are promised attain this season. During the time school was closed Mrs. Pearcy was with her folks in Oakland, Oregon. Miss Miller at her home in Portland. Miss Sehifferer with her folks in Turner, and Mrs. Humphreys with her parents near Mehama, Oregon. The rest of the facul ty members remained in Stav- ton. The high school received a very great shock on Thursday of last week when the news came that Mr. I). C. Davis, who for three years had charge of the commercial department and or chestra in the school here, had accidentally shot himself on No vember 12. at Prineville, Ore., where he had been teaching since Septemlter of this year. Mr. Davis in company with Prof Kvans of Prineville were duck hunting on a small lake nine miles from that town when the accident occurred. Mr. Da vis standing up in the l»oat from which they were hunting, shot at a flock of ducks. The dis charge of the gun caused him ta rock hack and forth and finally to pitch forward into the water. As he touched the water, there was the report of a gun w hich was later found to be his own and which exploded when he struck the water. After the shot, Mr. Davis got up and with the assistance of Prof. Evans got into the boat where he died in two or three minutes without uttering a word. Prof. Evans summoned help immediately and Mr. Davis was taken to Prine ville where two days later an open air funeral service was held. The body was then brought to Corvallis, where an other service was held Satur day, November 1»), at the Chas. Hout residence, after which the hurial took place in the Odd Fel lows Cemetery. As a token of their sympathy, the Stayton high school Student Body sent a beautiful broken wheel made of roses and lillies, the spokes be ing tiny pink flowers. The sym pathy of the entire school is ex tended to the bereaved relatives. Mr. Davis will never be forgot ten by his many friends here.
