Continued from first page.
have written that they will posi
tively be present. A number of
business houses of Portland will be
personally represented, but it is
too early to give a list of them.
Prineville will show its appreci
ation of the honor of being chosen
aa the first city in which the orga
nization shall hold its meeting by
cleaning up its streets, and putting
on a holiday appearance. The
stores and buildings will be beauti
fied with the decorations planned
Jforthe Fourth of July, and the
'streamers and bunting will remain
up until after the Fourth. Thus
Prineville will be in gala dress for
an entire week.
The meetings will be held at the
Commercial Club rooms, which
have been put in special readiness
for the occasion. The assembly
hall has been sealed and the down
stairs rooms made aa attractive as
possible for the visiters. The
opening meeting will be held Fri
day morning at 11 o'clock, and
sessions will be held on Friday
afternoon and evening, and !-atur-day
morning and afternoon.
To all of the meetings the resi
dents of Prineville and farmers of
the vicinity will be welcome, and a
special invitation is extended o
the farmers to come in and hear
President Ciray's address on the
possibilities of the development of
Central Oregon. The meeting
planned for Friday afternoon will
deal with subjects they are directly
interested. Good roads, dry farm
ing, the establishment of experi
mental farms and stations, and
the problems of irrigation will be
discussed by able speakers. At
all eessions the snbjects under con
sideration will be open for general
discussion.
The eessions will be presided
over by Mr. William Hanley of
Hums, vice president for Central
Oregon of the Oregon Development
League. He will be assisted in
guiding the work of the organiza
tion by Mr. C. C. Chapman, secre
tary of the Oregon Development
League and manager of the execu
tive committee of the Portland
Commercial club. Prior to the
meeting Mr. Chapman has been
visiting the commercial clubs of
Bend, LaPine, Crescent, Laidlaw,
Sisters, Redmond, Hillman, Me
lolius, Culver and Madras. He
will come to Prineville on Friday
morning with the delegation from
Madras.
The hospitality to be offered by
the Prineville Commercial Club
will consist of a luncheon and re
ception at the club rooms at noon
on Friday, tendered by the Ladies'
Auxiliary of the club, an auto ride
on Saturday evening, and a ban
quet at the Hotel Prineville on
Saturday night. Arrangements
for bousing the delegates are in the
hands of a committee of the club,
and the welfare of the guests of the
city will be looked after by the
social committee of the club, to
which a number of citizens have
been added.
Examinations En
tirely Too Long
The teachers' examinations are
over and the papers are in Salem,
but the majority of the teachers of
this connty are unanimous in their
decision that many of the lists of
questions were entirely too long to
be answered in the alotted time;
also that the arrangement of the
schedule was very poor.
The first day it waB necessary for
some to work from 8 a. ni. to 6:30
p. m., while on Thursday the ex
aminations were comparatively
short. Friday 'brought another
heavy day. Very few of the ap
plicants finished the United States
History questions in less than four
hours. This meant no lunch nor
rest before beginning the next
subject. In some instances the
questions were not clearly state'
and tow caused loss o time.
While these mistakes may ceem
of little importance to those who
make them out they mean much
to the applicant, for hie success or
failure may depend upon the cor
rect interpretation of such subject
One excellent change in the
subjects of reading, spelling and
writing was the methods work
asked for in teaching these sub
jects. This change will be mod
helpful in two ways, viz: It will
stimulate the teachers to a greater
interest in methods and it will
help the examiningboard to find out
bow teachers are preparing these
subject.
This is not a plea for Bhort, easy
examinations but for a good fair
test of the teachers' efliciency with
out subjecting them to three or
four days of hard nervous work
that in the end will leave him in
doubt as to the result.
