County O. S. T. A. Division;
Called To Action
Dear Fellow-Teacher:
We regret very much that a very(
small minority prevented the adop
tion of the proposed amendments, and
the nomination of state and county
officers at the meeting called Sept. 16.
It means delay, expense and much ex
tra work for the executive commit
tee. It was explained in the previous
letter that under the institute con
ditions of this year it would be neces
sary to make nominations before the
institute, in order to get the ballots
out in time to hold the election during
the institute. This of itself, it seems,
should be sufficient reason for sup
porting the proposed amendments.
It is also pointed out that this plan
will greatly expedite business matters
and prevent a jam and rush at the in
stitute. The executive committee is
thoroughly convinced that the best
interests of the association demands
its adoption, and has called a meeting
Saturday, Oct. 7, 1922, 10:00 to 12:00
a. m., in the parlor room of the Cham
ber of Commerce, Oregon City, to give
every teacher an opportunity to act
upon the amendments, and help nomi
nate state and county officers.
In order to further expedite busi
ness matters during the institute, Sec
retary E. D. Ressler suggests that we
begin our membership campaign be
fore the institute. - So you are urged
to come prepared to pay membership
dues at this meeting.

Good for Pessimist to Dwell on Dif
ference of Life Today and
v Three Centuries Ago.
Just to learn how far we have comt.
take a look at the present awl then
glance backward anywhere fmn: throe
centuries to times within the memory
of men who are yet scarcely gray
headed. Take a walk down Leyden
street and gaze on the model log
cabin of the type which was once one
of the best dwellings in the chief resi
dential section of the town (Plym
outh), back in.4.621 and 1622. Imagine
what fhe Interior would be lii: on x
winter day with only one fireplace
harnessed to a chimney which needed
a woodlot to feed It, but was a, fine
ventilator. Consider what the furnish
ings must have baen and having com
pleted this mental picture drop down
several generations to the time 01 your
great grandmother who used n smaller
fireplace to do her cocking, or else
had a brick oven instead of a Dutch
kitchen or bake kettle for her bread
and such, and the bathing ; facilities
were well, primitive to say the least.
Yes, and she used candles dipped at
home and made her soap in the back
yard, the sort which took off dirt all
right and seemed to carry along cuticle
with it. .
Later came wood-burning stoves and
still later some coal was used, but not
so very much, for wood by the cart
load was brought into town from the
back lots and sold daily in jtown square
not 50 years ago. Lumber was mi wed
by hand at times and the lumber mills
used the old slow single sash saw :
shingles were rived by hand and split
laths can be found in houses about
here even now, but they are old one-,.
Nails were made and window sasli
formed the winter job for the carpen
ter who was building a house. Plenty
more contrasts wiH occur if one srops
to think a moment and thinking
just what the really successful
preacher tries to get his audience to
do. The foregoing is only the outline
of the heads of the sermon about
houses and their contents and sur
roundings. Old Colony Memorial.
SEES LACK OF IMAGINATION
Cleveland Writer Thinks Blunders of
' School Children Are Less
Funny Than They Were.
"It doesn't seem, to me," says the
Cleveland observer, "tluit the blunders
school Children make nowadays are as
funny as they used to be. And this,
as the sociologist will tell you, argues
that the school children haven't the
Imagination they used to have. It
takes imagination to produce enter
taining blunders of this sort, as any
school teacher will tell you."
Here are two related by a Cleveland
teacher. To the question, "What do
you know about George Washington?"
a ten-year-old replied, "George hit the
tree with -his hatchet an' his father
sed,' who dun it, an' George sed, I
dun it, and his father sed, enny Amer
ican boy can get to be President, an'
he did."
The other question was, "Who was
Commodore Perry?" This was the
answer: "He was out on the lake
fighting an' he said, we have meet the
ennymy an' then they turned him into
stone.'r Cleveland Plain Dealer.
"Dead Nebulae."
There has been photographed a
most singular object in the constella
tion Taurus, the appearance of which
suggests the term "dead nebula." It
is a long, straggling mass, which
seems to shut ,out the stars behind it.
All round it the : stars are strewn
thickly, but within its boundaries
very few appear and it Is suggested
that these may lie on this side of it.
At' one point there is a small, bright
nebula, which gradually fades out.
The feebler portions of the nebula
would almost suggest that, a large
nebula exists here, but that the major
portion of It is dead or non-luminous.
In some places the dark object is
manifestly darker than the starless
parts of the sky around it. Washington-
Star. -
Motor-Car Boat
A vehicle which is either a .motor
car or motor-boat alternately has been
designed by a Philadelphia company,
the hybrid being known as an automo
bile boat. Possessing doors that are
absolufeiy watertight, the body of the
"auto-bUat" may be screwed up high
above the axles when required for use
In surf. Then, when deeper water
has been reached, the steering-wheel
which operates the front wheels while
on dry land may be used to work the
rudder which is in readiness astern.
Seated in such a vehicle, a motorist
need fear nothing In tie way of water,
though It be In the form of an inunda
tion. AH that seems needed now is an
adapted "auto-boat'i which is capable
of flying.
Portable- Playhouses.
Portable playhouses are a very
Interesting feature of the Hartford
(Conn.) playgrounds. They have red
canvas roofs and wire netting walls,
and each is furnished with a small
wooden table, four chairs and a set of
wooden blocks.'. So light are these
houses that they can be picked up
and carried about to different parts
of the parks and arranged in different
ways in a circle, in rows as if facing
fhe village street or as country places
with spacious yards. In these Lilli
putian villages children of the playing
