First Days of Vacation Send Many Youngsters to Splash In the River. The small boy came Into his own yester day. School -was out "Wednesday, and yes terday the free baths -were opened. The baths are not nearly large enough to ac commodate all the youngsters anxious to have their skins tanned, but they held all they could, and that, about 2 In the after noon, -was not a boy short of E00. They were so thick In the water that there was hardly room enough In the bath to dive. They plaed and splashed and got Into deep water and knocked out the blad der "wings" from under the arms of the novices, and playfully rescued them. They were orderly with their fun, too, and when the bell rang for them to get out to allow room for the men and women, they filed out, each turning in his trunks, which he had rented for 5 cents, or showing to the keeper at the door that he was carrying off his own. But where was the boy with the tan of last year thick on his body? There was not a one. Is the tank of the public baths too restricted a field for his prowess? He wiis nnt nresftnt. There were long, lean. dumpy and "sawed-off" boys, but none who had a tan on the shoulder. These were around on the rafts by the sawmills and diving off the docks. There was every variety of boy that the town affords. In wet tights and nothing else, their points were readily picked. There was the big fat boy whose father must have spent his life as doorkeeper in a gambling-house, he showed so little sign of exercise In himself or ancestry. He was afraid to dive, and, attempting it many times, stopped midway, in an em barrassed way, the butt of every one's jokes. He finally jumped forward des perately, and must have suffered Intense Internal pain, driving all the wind out of his stomach. Then there was the boy with the big lean shoulders, broad but not yet thick, and his complement, thick but tiot broad. The first was invariably blond tnd the latter dark. The ooy wun ine k cinowv iPirs that would hanir straight wn the sides of a horse stood reposeful ly, and the busy little chaps with thin faces and slim shoulders showed a "counter-jumper" agility. The boy with the long legs and thin hips ana tne quiet man ners, the descendant of the plainsman and the mountaineer, and not more than one generation city-bred, was the most at tractive of the lot. But they -were all together, and they had such a time as only comes on the first day of vacation. After that the thing gets to be common. But these little chaps looked as if their mothers would not allow them to go swimming except In the baths, and that Is why their freedom and joy began with the opening of this paradise for boys. The bathing schedule of the baths, which jre located at the foot of East Salmon street, follows: , Uooday 9 A. M. to 12 M.. boys free; 1:30 3-30 P. M.. bejs free; 3:20 to 6 P.

The first sailing vessels to reach Nusha gak River were the Berlin, of the Alaska Fishermen's Packing Company, of this city; the Indiana, of the Alaska Packers' Association, and the Big Bonanza, of the North Alaska Salmon Company.' These arrived May 12. The letter adds that June 5 all the Nushagak Blver vessels, excepting tho Uturpla, had arrived, but that is understood to mean all the Alaska Packers' Association's vessels bound for that port, as no mention Is made of the Ship C. F. Sargent from Portland or the bark Harry Morse from Astoria, and from other sources It is learned that tho Sargent was fast in the ice as late as June 9. At the time the letter was writ ten the Nushagak, Naknek and Kvlchak Rivers were open, but the Ugashlk and Egagik Rivers were still closed by the ice. Astoria Returns to South Bend.

Speakers Impress Upon Fellow In structors the Importance of Their Work. Elementary education, taken up by de partments, occupied the attention of the State Teachers' Convention a great part of yesterday's session, and a number of splendid papers were read. The depart ment of secondary and higher education also held a meeting, and several important subjects referring to college athletics were decided upon. A committee consisting of P. L. Campbell, E. D. Ressler, R. R. Steele, John O'Hara and Miss Gertrude Ewing, was appointed, to report on the advisability of organizing a senior and a junior intercollegiate athletic association in Oregon at this time. Among the regu lations reported by a previous conimlttee for the consideration of athletics in the higher institutions of learning was one providing that the football 'season is to close December 1, and games are to be scheduled with school teams only. The development of post-graduate work In Oregon wa3, discussed by P. L. Camp bell, who was of the opinion that some thing must soon be done in this line If Oregon expects to keep abreast of her sister states, but he does not deem it ad visable to attempt a four years' graduate, course now. "The Preparation of the High School Teacher" was ably discussed in a paper by Professor H. D. Sheldon, of Eu gene, who said that high school teachers should have four years' preparation be yond the subjects taught In high schools, and that the most Important phase of professional training Is mastery of the technique of teaching. A paper by Pro fessor George Coghlll on "Comparative Methods of Teaching Physiology" was read by Miss E. R. Walker in his ab sence. President J. B. Horner presided over this department meeting. In the first grade, Mrs. M. L. Fulker son's paper on "A Child's First Day In School" interested those in attendance. She said that the kindergarten teacher fixed the standard of color, form, art, dress, etc.. In the child's mind, through his imitative powers, and that at this stage who and what the teacher is is of more Importance than what she teaches. "Tho chief end of education is not prepar ing the child for a business or profession al life, but for Intellectual activity, moral activity, love of beauty, friendship, do mestic sympathy and loyalty." In the fifth-grade department, Scott Sea rltt, of North Yamhill, gave his Idea of a well-trained class. He said that a child taught too much along the line of rules and regulations will be like the god which had a golden head and clay feet. The child's head may be Instructed In the school work but when he enters tho edu cational world he Is lost. Mrs. Burnham, to illustrate the practicability of her talk on arithmetic, had pupils give a class drill. In the eight grade, John Blough's paper, "What Should Arithmetic Do for the Pu pil?" brought out the statement by Mr. French that the day of the teacher who follows the text-book closely Is passing away, and that now one teaches the child instead of teaching arithmetic. Mr. Mll ner, of Woodlawn, thought the vital point In teaching arithmetic was mental devel opment, which is derived from concrete work. The principals' department also met, with J. Burnham presiding. "The Emotional and Intellectual In Education" was pre sented by Principal C. L. Hoover. Principal B. E. Washburn took up the subject of "Character-Growing in School and Home." He was of the opinion that the teacher was of more Importance In the development of character in a child ' than the text-books. - He said that edu cation without character was a failure and that a strong character with less In tellectual education Is equivalent to suc cess. In the assembly hall President P. L. Campbell, in an address on "Some Eco nomic Values in Education," spoke of two great factors productive of wealth. a3 natural resources and men with their pos sibilities. In regard to education, the av erage citizen asks: "Will it pay? Does It pay? Is It a good investment?" The thought was brought out that on educa tion depends the safety of the Republic. The third of William Parsons' series of lectures was given, the subject being "Na ture of the Child's Organism as a Re sponsive, Reacting Agent, With Educa tional Implications." Mr. Parsons Is pre senting tho child-nature to the teachers In every possible light, and they are receiv ing untold good from his Instruction. Hon. Jefferson Myers, president of the State Commission of the Lewis and Clark Centennial, delivered the principal address of yesterday afternoon, on "Effect of the Teacher's Work on the Government."
