I With five days remaininii before
Itlie registration books in the
countj' (derk's ollioe close for the

throughout the county who have

Kutcher still led the other pre

at least '250 will be registered in
the latter precinct when the books
close. l'rineville held second
place with 15, but this week the
registration here will out-distance
that of Kutcher. lUack Butle
took third place in tbe registra
tion figures with a total of Mi
voters.
The Republican majority con
tinves to increase, the summary
showing that out of the total of
1877 voters registered SOI belong
to that uartv. Of the balance 45li
are Democrats, giving the Repub
licans a majority of J545. Indica
tions point to an increase of the

By .Mr. O'Connor's invention
this figuring is all worked out
automatically. The instrument
resembles a caliper very closely,
and all that is required is to meas
ure the caption, as one would with
a caliper, and the starting point is
shown by an indicator. Its work
is .mathamatically correct.
This instrument can also be
used to great adautage by com-1
positers and stenographers in rail
toad ollices. It is stated that Mr.
O'Connor has a small fortune in
this little invention which will be
put on the market as soon as the
necessary arrangements can lie
ma'de.

PROSPEROUS YEAR
Club Pays Off $550 in Six Months
Plans Are Laid for Further
Improvements
Reports read at the annual
meeting of the Prineville Ama'telir
Athletic Association last Monday
evening show the institution to be
in a nourishing condition. The
critical period of the club has
been passed, and the prospects for
its future are all that could be
asked.
The filiating indebtedness, which
amounted to $550 last October,
has been paid up in full and there
remains a balance of $50 in the
treasury. The dues now are more
than sullicient to pay tbe running
expenses and each month the sur
plus from the different sources of
revenue will be laid aside in a
fund to apiilv on the bonded in-
(teiuedness winch amounts to
$2500. The club at present has
100 members in good standing.

At the conclusion of the busi
ness program, officers were elected
for the ensuing year as
V.. M. Klkins, president;
Stewart, secretary; Dr.
Rosenberg. T. M. Baldwin,
Wilson, board of directors.
Steps were taken at the annual
meeting of the Ladies' Annex,
which was held Tuesday afternoon,
towards beautifying the grounds
about the club house. Two com
mittees on Mowers and yard decora
tions were appointed and the
memhers ot thesu wsll make some
pleasing improvements to the
premises. I here is also gome talK
of tbe Annex building a
veranda along the north, side of
the building, but no definite action
has been taken as yet in this
matter.
The annual report of the finan
ces, read by the secretary, Mrs. C.
I. WitineK, showed the total re
ceipts for the year amounting to
$51().5H. and a total expenditure
of $otl2.!)!l, leaving a balance on
hand of $127.59. There are 5:
i l.i. i . -
memhers in goou sianuing, anu i;
regular and special meetings have
been held during the year. Offi
cers weae elected as follows: Mrs.
I. Michel, president; Mrs. 0. M.
Elkins, vice-president ; Mrs. ('has.
Lytic, seerelaiy; Mrs. V. V. Wil
son, treasurer.
The Annex lun provetl of mater
ial aid to the club (luring the year
just closing and has expended con
siderably over $.'i00 in furnishing i
the (dub hall and adding needed i
improvements. With t lie elect ion i
Crook county's growth is clearly
marked in the increase in the
school papulation and tne constant
demand for the creation- of new
school districts and more teachers.
Superintendent Dinwiddie says the
close of .the present year will see
over 60 districts in running order.
Speaking further of the schools
yesterday he said:
"The schools of the county are
progressing rapidly in number and
size as well as educationally. The
most marked advancement is along
the line of classification. True,
there are a few teachers who do
not do what they should in that
respect, who are content to go
along in tbe old ship shod way,
whose motto is anyway to draw
my salary with as little work as
possible. Rut such teachers are
few and getting fewer.
"With a High school to look
lor ward to whose tloors are open
free of tuition to all who present
an Nth grade diploma, patrons as
well as teachers are awakening to
tne fact that we must have more
system in our rtttl schools, and
the teacher who fails to bring her
school up to the standard will
soon find she will be o)it of a posi
tion and some more progressive
teacher will be tilling her place.
"Patrons are also realizing that
tbe "cheap" teacher is not the one
that will tench for the fewest dol
lar per month, and as a result a
better class of teachers are to be
found in tbe school rooms at more
nearly a living salary. There are
districts whose directors still
! measure the cheapness of a teacher
by the dollar standard, and the
children in such districts must
bear the consequences. Tbe c!,-so
of the present year will see orer '
HO districts in running order and
the majority of the rural schools
properly classified, a result of the
united effort oi patron and teacher.
We hope to have the good work go
on and the schools of Crook county
placed in the front ranks among
the best schools in the state."
Following is a list of the teach
ers of the county at the present
time: .
