GHEE RECEIVES THANKS
CRKDIT BESTOWED FOR WORK
FOR UNIVERSITY.
President Campbell, of TJ. of O., and
T. H. Ackerman, Superintendent
of Public Instruction; Talk
Professor P. L. Campbell, president of
the State University, was the first
speaker yesterday at the Russellvllle
Grange Institute, which closed last
night. Among other things. President
Campbell said he desired on behalf of
the University to extend to the people
of Multnomah his assurance of sincere
gratitude for the hearty support given
last June for the University appropria
tion bill. But for the vote of this
county, he said, the measure would
have been defeated and it is his ambi
tion to repay the hearty support -extended
when it was needed. These ef
forts would be reciprocated, said the
speaker, by an effort on the part of
the University to extend the benefits
of the departments to every part of
Oregon by correspondence work
through the department heads.
Many can take advantage of these
courses at home. The professors at
Eugene are eager to assist in putting
the work at the command of every clU
sen of the state.
President Campbell spoke of his re
cent trip to the universities of Wis
consin, Illinois and Indiana. He was
impressed with the fact that our land
prices are lower here than there and
predicted a very great future for Ore
gon, as thle state's advertising has been
effective. People are looking to Oregon
as a pioneer in an advanced type of
popular government.
He said the country shows evidence
of a remarkable advance in education.
There is a tendency to place a very
hlg-h standard of education close to
the people. He spoke of a six-year
course in our high schools, which
would permit of pupils going direct
from the high schools to the univer
sities, and -advocated more concentra
tion of facilities for educaton. There
should be a foundatlop, he said, for
an educational system in the schools
of the eighth grade of each district
and a- union high school in every com
munity. He urged that encourage
agement be given library movement
throughout the state and that people
avail themselves of the opportunity
to secure its benefits.
He closed by saying that the Orange
Is an organisation which leads to popu
lar education and which will take its
members to a higher and better civil
ization. Professor J. H. Ackerman, State Su
perintendent of Public Instruction, took
"Co-operation" for his subject and said
ln part:
"This Is an age of combination, cen
tralization and co-operation. It is easi
ly noticeable In all lines of endeavor
political, Industrial, commercial and ed
ucational. In education, we achieve
the best results through mutual under
standing and hearty co-operation of all
the school forces, such as1 the school,
the home, the church and the press.
The best elgns of educational trend in
the state is the evidence of the most
hearty co-operation of organized forces,
the grange, state teachers' associa
tions, county superintendents' conven
tions, school officers conventions,
eehool board conventions and women's
clubs.
"To be more specific I will say that I
know of no time when there has been
more genuine interest in education than
the present. This interest is not a
pessimistic one, but rather an honest
and careful inquiry as to the defects of
the system and how they may be reme
died, and all the people are anxious to
co-operate in bringing this about. This
is particularly manifested in the atti
tude of the state and local granges
toward all educational questions.
"The motto is a school for any child
and every child in school. Through
this co-operation we shall work for
six months in every school district and
have the money distributed according
to the number of schoolrooms and
daily attendance Instead of on the
school census; that the funds shall be
secured through a system of indirect
taxation; and also that there shall be
a county fund provided for paying;
the teachers of high school pupils, to
the end that high schools shall be
provided for rural communities.
"I have thought for years and often
expressed the thought that the terri
tory in and around Russellvllle is par
ticularly well located for the forma
tion of a Union High school district,
and it is recommended that the forma
tion of such, a district bev carefully
considered. The children of rural com
munities are as much entitled to high
school privileges as are those in the
more congested centers."
The Institute was a success in every
way. the day closing with music and
recitations by local talent.
