The board of directors of the Oregon
City school district held a meeting last
Friday night. A lot of bills were aud
ited, and plans discussed for putting in
a new heating apparatus in the East-
ham building. Monday night an ad
journed meeting was held and the fol
lowing teachers elected for the ensuing
year : City superintendent, L. W. Mc
Adam ; principal of the Barclay tchool,
T. J. Gary ; grade teachers, Gertrude
Finley, Addie Clark, Laura Beatie,
Marjorie Caufleld, Hattie Cochrane,
Harriet Bray; principl Eastham Bchool,
Mrs, L. W. McAdam ; grade teachers,
Mrs. D. H. Glass, Gertrude Nefzger,
Erma Lawrence, Sade Chase, Mollie
Hankins. The rule was adopted at the
beginning of the election that no teacher
should be elected without receiving the
unanimus vote of the board. Several
candidates for positions received two
votes, but according to the rules this
did not elect. The city superintendent
will assign all teachers elected, to their
respective grades in both schools.
Prof. 0. W. Durette, formerly princi
pal of the West Oregon City school, has
been elected superintendent of the
Mount Tabor schools.
Miss Florence Patty has completed
ber school at Mulino, and returned to
her home at Gladstone. f
E. E. White, a prominent educator
and school author of Ohio, will give a
lecture before the Ohautauqa assembly.
Mrs. Alice Clara Whoeler, the noted
elocutionist of Oakland, Calif., has been
ecured for the Chautauqua assembly.
During Superintendent McAdam's six
years' connection with the Oregon City
Bchools, two years have been added to
the school course, one to the grammar
grades and one to the high school, and
now the school ranks as one of the best
in the state and its grading is taken by
the Portland schools when pupils from
this city enter there, and vice versa. In
stead of the fourth and fifth readers,
supplementary reading has been taken
up, and it gives satisfaction. There
are about 900 pupils enrolled in the Ore
gon City schools proper. The following
pupils graduated from eighth grade to
high school at the term just closed :
Barnice Adams Clinton Bock
Clarence Bruner

William S. Moore, an Oregon pioneer

his father's farm. In 1849 he crossed the
plains to Oregon, being in the party that
included Ahio Watt and the Catlins, and
spent the first winter at Rickreall. The
following spring he came to Oregon City

that place. In 1870 Mr. Moore was chos
