PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Making Good.
FIRST-CLASS REPORTS MADE
The School Directors Congatu
late Prof. Myers on the
Efficiency Shown.
I, nut Friday afternoon the
Hoard of Directors of the I'rine

Principal Myers and liU corps of
ti'nrhers to d menus matters xr
(tilling to the good of the public
schoni.i.
TIh'ih meetings are drsignrd to
bring tli director and teachers in

mentod with much gtoJ practical
work from outsiJe sources.
The reports showed that the
Prinevillo teachers are pro;rei)sive
and rcnli.e thit it is important to
imbibe plenty of good, healthy
twentieth century ideas and inhale
plenty of the educational breeics
of 1910. They feel they cannof
do their bent work with tho present
equipment and are asking at each
meeting for supplementary readers,
additional material for handwork,
sand tublos, maps, globes, etc.
Several of the grades received ciu-h
prises on their handwork at the
recent Connly Fair and will uvo
this money for new material along
these line.
A widc-awako spirit pervades
tho work of our teachers and they
realize the necessity of being pro
gressive and of putting energy, en
thusiasm and originality into each
and every recitation. An educator
has said, "l!u progressive, if you
htve conducted a recitation with
out learning something new, with
out coming to entertain clearer
views of the subject in hand, or
without discovering sunn manner
in which you can improve upon
your present 'methods then I re
vorbrate in a highly pitched key,
that you ought to be luhrled ns an
excavation from the ruins of Pom
peii." Principal Myers 'has a well or
ganized plan of work throughout
tho grades and is this year having
each teacher put special drill upon
tho subjucts of penmanship and
phonics. Reports showed a mark
ed improvement in both of these
subjects. A sot of art books has
also boon purchased and each
toucher will teach the life and best
known productions of the artists
best suited to her grado.
. After the different reports had
been discussed, ''Principal Myers
was authorized to purchase set of
mpplciin nlary reader for three of
the griles, ordtir seat for tho first
grade and arrange, for a suitable
pinion tul for the BliakcMirriai) hunt
which was won by the public
school at the Ciook County Fair
(or the bent school exhibit. The
principal bus planned to make
this but mean something to the
pupils by having parts of the story
of Khakt'Spvaro's life told and suit-
a Mo quotations learned in an
grades above the second.
Our public schools made fine
showing at the fair in numbers,
t'xurcirc and rxhibits and every
parent and citizen owe Principal
Myers and his loyal body of teach-
er a vote of thanks for the excel
luut work they have dont and are
still doing In helping their boys
and girls develop into useful men
and women.
Several Cases of
Diptheria in. County
Crook county has several caes
of dyptheria. Two of the Bird-
Ming boys wiire quite sick the last
of the week, but both are almost
well at this time. The o'.dur boy
is considered out of all danger,
while his ten-year-old brother is
improving steadily.
The families of Homer Barney
and John Demnris were reported
exposed from the liirdsong esses,
but Drs. lielknsp & Edward who

have charge of the cases, say that
no new cases will develop.
The littlo son of W. T. K. Wil
son of Sisters, was suffering from a
mild form of dyptheria, but Dr.
Coo of liend, who hud charge of
the case, has been taking all possi
ble precautions, and it is likely
that there will be no spread of the
(lift-ass from that source.
' Five new cases of dyptheria
were reported in Madras on Sun
day and the schools have bein
cloted there to assist in stamping
out this disease which has caused
much trouble this fall in that part
of the county.
Dr. liolknap was called to La
monta this morning to attend the
sixteen-year-old daughter of T. M.
Smith who has dyptheria. An
older brother of this girl had dyp
theria in Shaniko some time ago
and it is presumed that he carried
the disease home. Several other
members of the family have been
exposed but no other cases have
yet developed.
Who Will Get the Piano?
We have been trying to get a line

FOOTBALL GAME
THANKSGIVING
Bend vs. Prineville on
Home Grounds.
ALSO TWO BASKETBALL GAMES
Both High Schools Working
Hard for the Contest
Hot Came.
Football in Prineville Thanks
giving. The liend High School
has eleven huskies that are
anxious to play Prineville and the
home learn is willing. This will
be the first game ever played in
the county and will draw a big
crowd.
Prof. Evans, who baa charge of
the Crook County High School
pquad, does not know his line-up
just yet, but will be able to an
nounre it next wsek. He will
have a heavy high school eleven
that would be bard to tieat under
the old rules, but under the new
regulations their more nimble ad
versaries may beat them.
Bend will also send over a boys'
and a girls' bnsket ball team. The
defeat of the girls' team last year

the di.Unc
by Prineville has spurred our
neighbor to renewed effort and a
hot contest msy be expected
Prmsvillo can be relied upon to
put up two good, strong teams and
liend will have to extend herself
to beat them.
The football game will be played
in the afternoon on the high school
grounds and the basketball games
will probably take place at the
Club ball. .
The Crook County High should
receive the generous support of our
citizens in this undertaking to fur
nish good, clean sport for our boys
and girls. Bend will send over at
least twenty-five young men and
women that will be the, guests of
their competitors heYe and Prine
ville docs not want to act the part
of a niggardly host. Our Bend
visitors may expect to receive the
best in the house.
Plenty of Water.
There is water and lots of it in
the northern part of Crook county
and all that is required to get it is
to sink a well deep enough.'
-Drilling in the big well at Cul
ver Junction stopped at midnight
Friday night, and Saturday morn
ing there was 35 feet of water in
the bottom of the well. ThiB
water was 6truck at a depth of 750
feet, and the drilling is going on
as before. It is the intention of
the Culver people to drill until a
large How of water is found.
At Metolis, the new town a few
miles soutn of Madras, an abund
ant flow of water has been found
at 1000 feet deep. This is a ten
inch well, cased to a depth of over
900 feet. Water now stands in
the well at the 400 foot mark. The
drilling has been stopped as it is
considered a sullicient flow by the
companies that twn it. Drilling
has begun on two other wells which
will be owned by the townsite
people

OFFICIAL VOTE
CROOK COUNTY
Does Not Materially
Change Totals.
COUNTY DIVISION DEFEATED
Or. Belknap Re-elected to the
Legislature 7 Referendum
Bills Carry.
History repeated itself in the con
test for sheriff in Crook county this
fall being the Bixth time in the
past twenty years that the contest
for this office was very close not
more than a score of votes deciding
the election.
Balfour is victorious this time
bv nine votes. The first report of
the official canvas gave him the
office by the fatal three votes, by
which number J. II. Gray was one
lime winner over M. A. Moore and
in two other cases, one of which W.
A. Booth was the winner and the
other John Combs wss victorious.
A later and more careful checking
of the totals, however, gave Balfour
nine vote3.
Frank Elkins was winner over
C. Sam Smith four and a half years
ago by seven votes. Balfuur was
winner over John Edwards in the
primary this year by four votes.
Regardless of the close contest
between the democratio and re
publican nominees for sheriff, the
socialist candidate, J. B. Nicholas
of Laidlaw tor sheriff, received 124
votes, which seems to ind'eate
about the strength of that party in
the county. Alex Loverem of Gist,
the socialist candidate for clerk, re

TAKING THE NORTHWEST
TO THE PEOPLE
t peopli
west is to take the Northwest to the
people." This is the firm belief of L. W.
Hill, President of the Great Northern
Ky., and that he has the courage of his
Boston Exlilbit; 10,000
convictions is demonstrated by the ag
gressive "homeseekers' campaign," the
opening guns of which were fired at
Pittsburg, Pa., during the Western
Pennsylvania Exposition.
The Great Northern secured space in
the main building and installed an ex
hibit of fruit, grains and grasses from
Montana, Oregon and Washington. Nearly
ceived 176 votes, as opposed to the
124 received by Nicholas.
C. W. Allen, the socialist candi
date for commissioner, received 509
votes, while commissioner Bailey
was reelected by a vote 1162.
Ralph Jordeh received 1444 votes
(or treasurer and F. A, Rice was re
elected surveyor by a vote of 1332
Dr. Hyde was elected coroner by a
vote of 1409.

716 for prohibition and 987 againBt
