RECOMMENDS A
NEWHIGH SCHOOL
Board of Education
for Building to
Will Ask
Cost
About $300,000.
ENLARGE OTHER SCHOOLS
May Take Two Years Before Addi
tional Structure Will Be Built.
Bonds Will Be Voted for
the Improvement.
J
One new high ,chool and approximately
40 rooms for the extension of the gram
mar schools will be recommended by the
Board of Education for erection dur
ing next year. The total cost of this con
struction will be between J2SO.00O and
J30O.00O. It will probably require two years
to erect the new high school building
and bonds may be voted for that pur
pose, but It is the intention to have the
new rooms for grammar grade pupils In
readiness by the opening of the next
school year and the taxpayers will be
called on at the December election to
authorize a levy high enough to pro
vide $150,000 for this work.
At the meeting of the Board last night
there waa a general discussion of the
new buildings and additions that will
be required to meet the Increased needs
of the city next year. In spite of the
many school buildings that have been
erected the past two years, the growth
in population has kept pace with the In
crease In facilities and it is absolutely
necessary to enlarge several buildings
as soon as possible. The board has prac
tically decided where it will be neces
sary to build next year and although
the list that has been made out does not
Include all the extensions that have been
asked for, it is considered that It will
afford relief wherever there Is pressing
need.
Enst Side Is Favored.
Residents of the East Side interested
In having a new high school erected on
the three acres In the Patton tract,
owned by the city, were given to under
stand last night that the Board favors
this Improvement Chairman Wittenberg
announced that it is the unanimous opin
ion of the Board that the taxpayers be
asked to authorize this building at the
coming school election.
Architect Jones was instructed last
night to prepare plans for additions to
the Shaver and Arleta schools. Six
rooms will be added to the Shaver school
and eight to the one at Arleta, making
the former 17 rooms and the latter 18
rooms. The Board also plans to build
eight rooms at Sellwood, . four at Penin
suia and four at Richmond. Aside from
these a new eight-room building will
be constructed In northwest Irvington to
relieve the Highland and Irvington
schools.
Councilman Vaughn, representing the
North East Side Club, appeared before
the Board last night In regard to the
new high school that Is -io be erected on
the Patton tract. He declared that such
a building Is badly needed, as that part
of the city Is rapidly growing and is not
convenient to the other high schools. Ha
called attention to the fact that a large
area which was covered with brush a
few years ago, Is now thick with dwell
ings and Is growing more rapidly than
any other portion of the city.
To Build for the Future.
"We want a building that will last for
many years to come," said Mr. Vaughn.
"It would be worse than useless to erect
a frame building and the only materials
desirable are stone and reinforced con
crete. We believe that we are entitled
to as good a building as the present East
Side high school, and we estimate that
It would cost at least $150,000."
"The Board has had this matter under
consideration for soma time,1' replied Mr.
Wittenberg. "I think I can assure you
that wa shall ask the taxpayers in De
cember to authorize us to go ahead with
Its construction."
WILI; WORK FOR NEW LIBRARY
East Side High School Pupils to
Have a Branch Building.
Pupils of the East Side High School
will be used as the medium for spreading
Interest In the subscription of funds for
the erection of a branch library at East
Eleventh and East Alder streets, where
a site for the purpose has been donated.
O. M. Scott, chairman of a committee
from the East Side, went before the
Board of Education at Its meeting last
night and received permission to go be
fore the pupils and Interest them In the
work.
It was first intended to request the
pupils to solicit funds for the new
library, but permission for this was re
fused by the directors. The Board, how
ever, decided that everything possible
should be done to help out the project,
and granted Mr. Scott and representa
tives of the Portland Library Association
permission to go before the pupils and
ask them to Interest their parents in the
plan.
Boys of the East Side High School
were given permission to form a Y. M.
C. A. Bible class. The class must be un
der the control of the boys themselves
and subject to the supervision of Super
intendent Rlgler and Principal Herdman,
as there is a state law against organiza
tions within the public schools controlled
by any one except the pupils.
A contract for furnishing 1500 desks at
an advance of 25 cents a desk over the
scale that has been enforced was award
ed to ' the National School Furniture
Company. A contract for the cement
work, at the Highland School was award
ed toD. E. Steele for $1045.
No report on the petition of teachers
for an increase of salaries was made last
night. This matter. Is In charge of the
supply committee, consisting of I. N.
Flelschner and Mrs. U. W. Sltton. Mr.
Fleischner has been ill during the past
week, but a report was promised for the
next meeting.
RAILROADS STILL WAITING
Big Corporations Insist That Their
Assessments Are Too High.
A second application for reduction
of taxes was filed by the Northern Pa
ciflo' Terminal Company with the Coun
ty Board of Equalization yesterday. Its
1.22 miles of track in this county was
assessed at $44,000 a mile, or $53,680.
while the railroad corporation alleges
the road could be rebuilt for $10,000 a
mile, or $12,000.
The assessment asked for Is lower
than the valuation of any of the track
age of other railway companies, as
stated In petitions filed during the past
week, for the O. R. & N. Co. and the
Southern Pacific Company value their
trackage at $20,000 a mile, and the
Northern Pacific at $14,000 a mile.
Ths Oregon & Washington Lumber
Company made application yesterday to
have Its machinery, merchandise, notes
and accounts assessed at $35,000, in
stead of $50,000, and its improvements
at $4500. instead of $6500.
Whether six day or seven should
constitute a week was the question
which the Equalization Board faced,
and it was finally decided to keep the
rolls open yesterday, thup giving the
taxpayers a full seven days in which to
file petitions for reductions of assess
ments. When the board closed Its last
session at 4 o'clock yesterday after
noon 336 petitions had been filed, while
last year there were 629.
Many of the petitions this year were
from owners of property In Couch Ad
dition. Assessor Sigler explained last
night that the cause for complaint with
the assessments there this year was
probably because that part of the city
is beinb utilized more than ever as a
warehouse district, making the prop
erty more valuable. -'Couch Addition
has perhaps Increased more In value In
the last 12 months," said he, "than any
other part of the city."
It is thought that about a week will
be consumed by the Assessor's deputies
in Investigating each complaint indi
vidually, after which the board will
meet and act upon the reports, giving
a hearing to all taxpayers who wish It.

A CONDITION
THAT CALLS
FORA TONIC
When Run Down and Debilitated
Try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
a Tonic That Is Also a
Specific for Many Dis
orders of the Blood
and Nerves.
When the health" is ran down from
overwork, overs tudy, or from whatever
causa, a good tonio is needed.
But sometimes what is mistaken for
simple debility is a symptom of a more
serious disorder, ansemia perhaps, or a.
breaking down of the nervous system.
By taking a tonio that is also a speciflo
for many disorders of the blood and
serves the threatening disease may be
prevented. That is what was done in
the case of Mrs. Ora Ford of 1008 Wash
ington Boulevard, Chicago, HL, who
was undoubtedly in the early stages of
anaemia before Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
cured her. She says:
"I was completely run down in health
for about a year. My blood was thin
and poor and I had a great deal of
trouble with my stomach and kidneys.
My appetite was poor and I had no
desire for food. What I ate distressed
me. I had always been troubled with
sick headaches which came on as often
as three or four times a week. I also
had dizzy spells, my breath was short
and I frequently had pains in my side.
I had no ambition or desire to do any
thing. I became so pale and thin that
I looked terrible. My friends thought I
was going into consumption.
"After I had tried several kinds of
medicine that did me no good whatever
I read of Dr. Williams Pink Pills in a
newspaper and decided to give them a
trial. I began picking tip a little after
taking about two boxes of the pills and
notioed that I was getting an appetite.
I gradually got stronger, the dizzy spells
left and my color came back. The
headaches ceased to be so frequent or so
severe. I can recommend Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for troubles due to poor and
impure blood."
Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid,
on receipt of price, 60 cents per box ; six
boxes for $2.60, by the Dr. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.
Vancouver Island has undergone a decided

of 48 miles from the southeast was record
ed this afternoon. Rain was general over
ths entire district, ths recorded amounts
were usually small. A high area overlies

"WHY?"
Because
Good In gr Is the now town on ths main lln
of ths Oregon Short Llns Railway, 16 miles
west of Shoshone, Idaho. It has 6 passenger
trains through It each day.
Because
Gooding Is located' In the midst of several
thousand acres of fine land that has long
been cultivated and there are fine buildings,
shady groves, orchards and meadows now
there. It has good schools, a posiofftce,
store, hotel and many other things that
will add to your comfort.
Because
Tributary to Gooding are the 70.000 acres
of the Big Wood lands that will be opened
November 14; the 150,000 acres of the North
Side Twin Falls lands opened October 1;
the rich and fertile Camas Prairie and the
Justly famous Hagerman Valley.
Because
Gooding has more acres of flne Irrigated
lands within a radius of 10 miles of it than
any other city of Idaho.
Because
The two Wood Rivers flow through the
town end there will be plenty of shade,
water, trees, grass, flne domestic water
from wells. The town Is platted In an al
falfa meadow and there will be no dust and
no sagebrush.
Because
Gooding has already secured the location
of a beet sugar factory and It Is also the
Junction of the Mllner electric line with the
main line of the O. S. L. Ry.
