IRVIKG HALE.
The selection of pupils of supe
rior ability to. receive special at
tention, as well as the continued
development of special training
for those v retarded by .scholastic
difficulties, was included In the
recommendation of i E. A," Miller
to the - local school board . last
night. The work conducted dur
lng the past year when special
class rooms were : organized for
pupils requiring special training
was very successful, the reoort
declared, "and further development
during the next, year is- recom
mended, y ; - w . :'.
Pupils j whose age. is consider
ably greater than the' average of
the class in which they are study
lng would also be segregated for
Bpeclal training, according to th$
plan presented by Miller. - Three
aeimite recommendations were
made:, first, that a class be or
ganized at Parrish .'junior high
school for special class pupils of
14 : years or over; secondthat
class be organized at a place to be
determined later for age pupils
from the, fourth and fifth grades;
third, that rooms be organized at
Grant, " Lincoln and Richmond
schools for, those pupils with an
intelligence .quotient of from 50
to 80. . nx- - ; . n . .:
With the view of offering the !
wyjnji vuuiiy 10 siauenis oi superior
ability ! to receive special training
it was recommended that group
tests be made in - the fifth ' and
sixth grades at the opening of,
schools and that afterwards tests
be made in the 5b and 4a grades
periodically.
No definite action was taken by
the board last night. . j
explained Collector Huntley, 'In
that it Is a tax for; the privilege of
doing business, and covers the fis
cal year ending - June 30, 1926,
which must . be paid in advance.
Under the new regulations, an ex
tension, in time for filing these re
turns and paying trie-tax can be
obtained only in case of sickness
or unavoidable ' absence from' the
state." '.'.;
. Collector .Huntley also announc
es that July 31 is the last day spe
cial taxes for the ensuing fiscal
year may be paid, and escape a
penalty of "25 per cent of the
tax due, by the following .classes
of taxpayers: Proprietors of bil
liard and poor halls and bowling

including custom house, ship and

bors fund. :
Congressman Hawley believes
that the additional funds can be
obtained. . .This work will open
the river to tlje project-depth of
314 teet at low water, and the
maintenance of this depth here
after 1 will be comparatively easy.
No " work of special importance
has been done on the river for
several years because there were
no boat lines using it, while the
present company has the "business
and backing to continue. The
Willamette - river is too valuable

lem Navigation company, went, to
Portland yesterday for a "confer
ence with Major R. T. Coiner of
the-U'S. engineers. In charge of
the Portland office, on the im
mediate improvement of the Wil
lamette river between Brentano's
landing and Salem. The . boat,
Northwestern, now plying on the
river, can at present come only to
Brentaho'a landing, and freight
between that point and Salem Is

form constructed by the boat com
pany at the landing.
Last Thursday the ; above gen
tlemen and" Capt. Fred Kruse of
the - Northwestern went down th
river and took soundings on the
various bars in the river, which
were presented to Major Coiner,
The major gave careful attention
and indicated an active interest
and desire to proceed vigorously
with the improvement being im
pressed with the fact that the
present company has the resourc
es, business arrangements and fin
ancial backing to make transpor
tation on the river successful.

The- most expensive grading Job
ever adverttsed byt tho;l commis
sion was offered for proposats.
This consists of twenty-three miles
of the Roosevelt coast highway in
Curry county and is from Pistol
river to the California llbe. When
completed it will finish the grade
from Gold Beach, on Rogu river,
south to the state line. So heavy
is the construction, that the sec
tion was offered in four units, and
this section 'alone will cost for
grading approximately $1,000,000,
the estimate running in excess of
I90O.000. After the grade Is
made surfacing must follow, which
will take many thousands of dol
lars more. ; '
; An application, was : made by
County Judge Adkisson of Wasco
for the commission to " build the
Waplnitia spur, which is-" planned
to' connect the Mount Hood loop
and The Dalles-California high
way.! The county has spent 865,
000 on the road between Waplni
tia and a connection - with The
Dalles-California highway : near
Matrpin, and 825,000 has been set
aside for work between Wapinitla
and the loop. The highway, com
missioners, announced that ' they
would take the matter under con
sideration.
Request from Lane county court
resulted In two surveys being or-,
dered . There are about 23 miles
of old gaps on the McKenzIe high
way in which Lane' county is in
terested:, ana tne eourt urged that
a survey bo made so that the court
would know . how much money
would be required for its co-operation.
, A survey was also asked
for the Eugene-Florence road
from Rain Rock to Florence. A
delegation asked that the survey
be run down Siuslaw river via
Mapieton and Cushman. rather
than down the north fork. Both
routes will be surveyed.
Washington county court asked
that the fill on Dairy creek, near
Hillsboro, be hardsurfaced .with
concrete.
