DEAN ROMS TALKS
TO THE STUDENTS
Dean E. C. Rohhlns of the Unlvnr-jen
elty of Oregon school of commerce
spoke to tho school Tuesday aftor-
noon. Tho topic of his speech was,
"Changes In tho University." At
Mr. Rohhlns' Interest lies chiefly in
commerce he devoted his address to
the changes in tho commercial field.
He called attention to the fact that
while the University of Oregon de
voted courses to bookkeeping and
stenography, yet it did not empha
size these branches. The greater
part of Its commercial work was the
training of business executives; and
three things were' necessary to be
successful in this line, that Is, the
power to think, the power of Infor
mation and the power of analysis.
Mr. Robbing has been sent out by
the University, as others of the tea
ching staff of the U. of O., tor the
purpose of keeping before the minds
' of the High School graduates the
work that Is being done by that in
ttltutlon. "Mr. C. E. Arney, Western Immi
gration and Industrial Agent of the

FIRST PROGRAM
or MUSIC CLUB
The first musical given by the
Music Club ot the high school in
the Methodist Church wat consid
ered at a success. In spite of the
rain, a very good crowd was pres
ent, nearly filling the church.
As the last few weeks have been
very busy ones for tbe students and
teachers, not much time could be de
voted to practicing for this musical,
consequently nothiag elaborate was
prepared. Only a nominal admis
sion was charged, ar.4 the Club has
at le&Bt made a start for next year,
as there will be a small fund In tbe
treasury next year there will be an
incentive to work harder to put on
a better musical and more Interest
will be taken.
The success of the musical given
last Monday night wps due to a
great extent to the efforts of Miss
Cramer and Mr. Shippee of the fac
ulty, and especially to Mr. W. P.
Hershey who assisted In the vocal
work. Mr. Hershey also donated tbe
music that he furnished for this
night to the club as permanent
property. The program wat as fol

The manufacturers of Valvoline
oils have issued a letter to the auto
owners hereabouts notifying them of
the opportunity of having their
crank cases cleaned out and refilled
with their oil at no cost to them,
other than paying for the new oil
necessary to fill the crank case. This
offer of free service will undoubt
edly be taken advantage of by all
receiving the letter, as they not on
ly get good oil at tbe regular price
but have their motor drained and

ignated at the authorized concern

THE H. S. CONTEST
WELL ATTENDED
The Crook County High- School
Declamatory Contest which was held
in the Baptist Church, May 13, wat
a victory for the Alpha Literary So
ciety. -
This contest was also a try-out to
determine what students should rep
resent tbe high school at the field
meet at Redmond, May 14th. ' In
other years this try-out waa held a
month or so before the final event
took place, as a result, the students
who won out In the try-out, found It
necessary to continue a lengthy and ,
uninteresting training, with the dan
ger of becoming too mechanical in
their delivery.
Those taking first places are at
follows; Oratorical division, Fred
' Houston, Ochooonian, "The Great
est Battle Ever Won." Dramatic,
Mabel Polk, Alpha, "Mother Love."
Humorous, Marjorie Wilson, Alpha,
"Hey Rube." ;
A vocal Solo was given by Lulu
Allen and an instrumental duet by
Flora Edwards and Vera Dunham.
