PRINEVILLE SCHOOLS ARE OPENilp CKISCXXXJi. rxtri Fair Attendance in All Grades, Many Ncwj Teachers, School Building inadequate School opened here Monday with fairly good attendance find all teachers at their posts. In other parts of Crook county most of the pchools likewise began this week, though in rome districts school h is locn in progress from one to two weeks. The tkies were f railing al ipost as prtt ily as the children, the iir was just crisp enough to impart vim into the legions of education and after all pupils had been enrolled they felt able to cope successfully with another year of Btudy. Enrollment in the city school Monday, the first day, was 165, divided as follows: First grade 25, second 22, third 20, fourth 21, fifth 3, sixth 17, seventh 17, eighth 20. By Wednesday the enrollment had increased to 172. Others will come iu later. Enrollment in both schools the opening day is always small, and it takes nearly a month to see all pupils in their seats. A majority of the teachers are here the first time this year, though . several have taught at Madras, Dend and other county points in past years. Nearly all are experi enced teachers, and these without previous tutorship are eminently fitted for their duties as graduates of recognized seats of learning. Prof. E. L. Afhby, principal of the Prineville school and teacher of the eighth grade, is a graduate of Western Maryland college at Westminster, Md , and comes here from Oakland, Md., his home This is his first year in the chair, but he is well-fitted for the task and already has won the confidence and esteem of his score of pupils. Miss Elsie Osborn, teacher of the r c venth grade, is a graduate of the 'rook county high school. This is 1 ( r first year. Louis H. Arensmeier, sixth grade, I I has taught at Paulina and other county schools but makes his initial bow in Prineville this fall. Miss Jessie Hartley, fifth grade. comes here from Madras, where she formerly taught. Miss Elva J. Smith, fourth grade, is also from Madras, and this is her first year here. Miss Hazel Caldwell, third grade, come . here from her home at Bend. where shs used to teach. She is a graduate of Monmouth normal. Miss Alwildi Wilson, second grade, taught for six years at Al-j t bany and has been a teacher in the smaller towns of Crook county j jKS 1 Cko I,..! i J had large experience. Miss Cora Slreitel, first grade, taught the same class here last year and is no stranger to the local school. Very inadequate are the accom modations for the first and second grades, the pupils of which classes are housed in buildings on B street. In the old bank building, where the first grade is, there are no win dows on the east side; in the Odd Fellows building, where the second grade pupils are, the room is lighted by only three small win dows, poorly placed, though the room is fifty feet long. Such ac commodations are barnlike and woefully inadequate to the school needs of Prineville. The high school faculty is well known. Prof. M. B. Hockenberry needs no further commendation or introduction here. Miss Catherine Conway, teacher of Latin, was here last year. Prof. J. F. Blanchard, who last year was principal of the graded city schools, is instructor in science and mathematics. Miss Rose Parrott, from Rose burg, teaches English, American literature and history.

Union evangelistic services opened Wednesday evening with a very representative congregation of both men and women. The ser mon was preached by Rev. J. D. Lcwellen, new pastor of the M. E. Church. The evangelist, Rev. C. R. Haudenschield, is in the city, and will preach this evening, and Rev. Housel Preaches Farewell Sermon Sunday, September 20, was the last public appearance in the local Methodist pulpit of Rev. C. A. Housel as pastor and, as was an ticipated, the outgoing clergyman bade bis congregation farewell in a few well chosen words. Next Sun day the new pastor, Rev. J. D. Lewellen, who arrived this week from his late charge at Pendleton, will preach morning and evening at the usual hours. Although Mr. Housal confined his sermon principally to a Bibli cal text, he interspersed the few remarks which custom dictates to an outgoing minister. He said, first and foremost, that his people had his very best wishes, hopes and prayers for the well-being of the church and its work in the community. He then commended his successor as a very worthy and capable man, recommending the people of the Methodist church in particular and those of all local churches as a whole, to rally to his support, morally and financially. Mr. Housel then spoke for a few minutes on the conference at Wen atchee, Wash., saying it bad been ably and fraternally administered by the new moderator, Bishop Hughes. A number of local parishioners, as always, were hoping that Mr. Housel would be returned. He a?ked them to forget their disap pointment and unite in support of the incoming minister, Mr. Lew ellen. Mr. Housel will leave in a day or two for the scene of his new labors at Dayton, Wash. His de parture has been delayed some what by the health of Mrs. Housel, which is not of the best. 'V.
