    High School Debate
Tomorrow Evening
Friday evening, January 23, The
Dalles High School will meet Crook
County High in debate on the ques
tion: Resolved, "That a majority of
all votes cast at the election should
be required to pass an amendment
to. the state constitution."
The affirmative team, composed
of Chas. Remington, Victoria Hus
ton and James Cram, will debate
The Dalles negative team at the
Methodist church here, and the C.
C. H. S. negative team, composed
of Orville Yancey, Frederick Rice
and Hobart Belknap, will meet The
Dalles affirmative team at The
Dalles.
Under the efficient direction of
Supt. H. C. Baughman the Crook
County High School teams have
been working hard for several
weeks and we feel that whatever
the decision of the judges may be,
we are going to be proud of our
debaters. What is needed now is
the loyal support of all who are in
terested in Crook county and its
chief educational institution. The
high school is under heavy expense
in bringing the judges here and in
sending a team to The Dalles, and
your presence will not only en
courage the home team but will
give Crook County High the finan
cial support it needs on this oc
cassion. Supt. Myers Puts in
a Word for County
County School Superintendent
Myers, in an interview with an Ore
gonian reporter last week had this
to say of Crook county:
"With the advent of the dairy
cow into the irrigated districts of
Central Oregon, the settlers are
more than ever encouraged with
their prospects, according to J. E.
Myers, superintendent of schools of
Crook county, who was registered
at the Imperial from Prineville
yesterday.
"With the cow as the farmer's
mainstay, and the hog as a by-pro
ducer, acreage that was a failure
under 'straight hay' methods now
yields an income that supports an
ordinary family in comfort," said
Mr. Myers, "so that at this time a
great many who were discontented
a few years ago are now content to
remain and help build up the coun
try." The question of better agricul
ture has been taken into the schools
of Crook county to some extent, as
it has in other Oregon counties, and
to encourage the boys and girls in
acquiring a knowledge of better
livestock the Crook County Fair
Association will offer what are
termed junior and senior prizes for
stock judging at the next county
fair at Prineville.
"To encourage a more active in
terest in farm life," said Mr.
Myers, "an opportunity will be
given to each child of the county to
select the line of farm work he or
she likes best. A report of their
selections will be made to Statei
Superintendent Churchill, and bul
letins pertaining to the branches
selected will be sent them from
time to time.
Mr. Myers says crop conditions
throughout Central Oregon are
promising."

Eighth Grade Exams
Names of the Winners
Supt. Myers has finished grading
all county papers that have been
received at his office and is pleased
with the results.
There were many more appli
cants this time than a year ago, due
to the rapid growth of the county.
There were thirty-four who finished
the eighth grade and diplomas have
been mailed to them. Thirteen
were conditioned. Most of these
conditions are in the subjects of
civil government, grammar and
arithmetic. These conditions may
be removed at the May examination.
Seven of those attempting the
eighth grade examinations failed
and will have to take all of the
subjects again. One hundred and
thirty-seven took the examination
in physiology . and geography.
Nearly all those taking the physiol
ogy passed. Those taking geog
raphy did not fare so well as a num
ber of failures were noted.
Nine outlying districts which
have poor mail service have not
been heard from yet.
Those making the highest average
grades in the county are:
Anna Butcher, 9-1.2, district 76,
Redmond.

the examination there were only
