THIS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGN ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES A RECORD A dozen years ago, the Crook County High School was an institu tion with a mere hamlfull of pupils, one which had just been es tahliscd. By many it was predict ed that the institution would fail, as had other efforts to establish schools above the grades. The iso lated location of Prineville at that time was to the disadvantage of the school, some said, and many reasons were cited why a successful school could not be located here. The answer is found in the debate of last Friday evening in which the Crook County high proved it self superior to all like schools in the entire vast territory east of the Cascades and which puts them within one contest, that with a Jefferson team, of the state cham pionship. This school, like most such insti tutions that have become really im portant, has been the outgrowth cf a need, the result of cooperative effort, able instructors at all times, and a good and loyal board. We predict a future that will make the C. C. H. S. famous throughout the West. . - IT'S HERE! Progress comes fast when it starts; very fast indeed. This has been demonstrated by the record made by Bend during the past year. Saw mills and various other de velopments have followed thick and fast, all of which Prineville is pleased to see. But Prineville is to have a burst of speed, an era of progress also, and it is now at hand. The trriga ti m district is progressing rapidly, the railroad matter is developing very satisfactorily and on the heels of this development will follow the Rogers mill. 'Other developments are sure, but we hesitate to boast. The only safe method is to watch Prineville. The Journal advised you to do this several months ago. It is good ad--.vice yet. Prineville was visited this week by J. W. McCulloch, who is one of the six candidates for the office of public service commissioner from Eastern Oregon. Mr. McCulloch is a clean man of mature years, a man who has re ceived tht endorsement of many prominent men where he is well known, who no doubt, has ample ability to conduct the office to which he aspires without question. He is a resident of Ontario, and has a record for the practice of law in that part of the state that is not .excelled anywhere. He is a very likable sort of an individual, one who will get votes wherever he goes. He has a wife and five child ren. Don't forget Chautauqua week. July 3 to 8 this year. Comes just at the regular time to celebrate, and will be a great event. The program offered here this year is the best ever given outside of the large cities. Come, sure! Then, there is the county fair this fall. Remember this when you plant your garden. One man took h.jme $43 in premiums last year, and all the prize winning products came off of less than an acre. And look at the advertising too. The city well is next, should be a gusher. Tib I NEWS FROM THE SCHOOLS C. C. II . S. NOTES. Sunt. Haughman is in receipt of a letter from the high school of Milton, Oregon, challenging our debating team to fa debate on the present question. Milton is not in the league but offers expenses and choice of side to see what they can do with the C. C. II. S. Mr. Baughman plans to accept and de bate thorn on the way to Eugene which will afford good practice as the affirmative side' is more diffi cult to present. The decision over Enterprise was a pleasant revenge, for last year the result was reversed leaving the local high school in third place. The senior address given in as sembly Wednesday was made by Clinton Huston. He explained the development of the moving picture fihv. along interesting and eduea tional lines which showed some study on the work. Clinton is operator at the Lyric.

The office of Circuit judge, for Crook and Jefferson Counties, was created in 1915,'and T. E. J. Duffy, was appointed by Governor Withy combe to fill the position. Although Judge Duffy register? as a demo crat it may be noted, that his ap pointment was made by a republi can governor, who among a great number of people regards such office as nonpartizan. Judge Duffy, en tered upon the discharge of the duties of such office, giving up his private practice of law, to devote all of his time to it, and it can be safely said that he has administered such office fairly, impartially and in a business like manner. It would therefore s eem no more than right, in view of his record, that he be nominated and elected to succeed himself for a further ttrm. Paid Advertisement. 'ft''"" .

Then on the other side find the stand thin, short, and over-ripe? f It's a pretty hard matter to set your binder so it will taka care of such conditions without los from shelliug or without cloegiug, isn't it? Here is where a McCormick binder proves its true worth. The McCormick has an Devator that Floats at Four Points This means that if the grain Is thick, tanglnd, and matted, the upper ' elevator will expand to allow the increased volume to pass through, and then drop back to its original position for short, thin grain. There are no changes' or adjustments to make the movement is entirely auto matic. Coma iu and see how simple this valuable feature ia. W. F. KING CO., Prineville, Oregon S ill m MILLS !
