ONE DAY ON-Y i-txrrr, ' " PEOPLE MESHO Ifj SIIMFfl SCHOOL Local Training Center Gets Strong Support From Sa lem Merchants Many Salem people having been showing great interest in the work being done in the summer school conducted in this city by thp Mon mouth normal school under Pro fessor T. H. Gentle, director of teicher training schools, which chines to a close on Wednesday, July 2 7. v Attendance on the part of Sa lem pupils has been better-than that in any other training center in the state, Professor Gentle re ports. The cooperation of the Sa lem people in the project has been unusual, leaders of the work say. The Chamber of Commerce has as sisted greatly in supplying ma terial for local work in geography and history classes. The Com mercial Book store has been ex ceptionally accommodating in se curing books for the work. Even a Greek fruit vender obligingly loaned a cocoanut for an object lesson in one of the classes. Four hundred Salem pupils, Trom the first through the eighth grades are enrolled, with 180 of these at Yew Park school, which a Statesman reporter visited Tues day morning. Teaching is being done at Park school by 34 student teachers from the normal, with 5 critic teachers supervising their work. A more ideal method of teacher training could hardly be devised. And the pupils do not suffer under the pro cess, indeed, they learn faster than during the winter term, and are sorry that school is to be over so soon. Mrs. Minnie V. Duncan, who during the winter is principal of Garfield school, is critic supervi sor of the first grade. One could not help but be imprefsed, as he visits the work being done, there, with the improvements in school work, and the incentives for do ing work which are held before the pupil today'. One of the Interesting things done in this grade is the drama-' tization of stories, in the form of puppet shows, where the pupils speak from behind the scenes .for the characters which they move across the stage above ,them. Re markable work was done vester? day by little Thomas Roen, Jr.V and Clifford Probert, In a realis tic dramatization of "Little Black" Sambo and the Tiger." Other interesting features of the first grade work were the graph charts showing progress made in phonics, words, and numbers, and the library. The graph charts are so arranged that each pupil may watch his own progress, and com pare it with that of others. Any one looking at the chart may see at a glance that progress is un doubtedly being made. In the library the little tots are made to enjoy reading, and to look forward to an opportunity to use the books. Three little Japanese girls, who previous to the beginning of the school had been too bashful and afraid to speak a word, sang for the visitors, without embarrass ment. The second grade work Is su pervised by Miss Katherine Sclimitt, of Marshfield. An in teresting example of a written les sfrtr' was being given in her room, SPECIAL Water ill: :miLM: wiuinM' AMBASSADOWSDAUGHmUWED Miss Matilctn Houghton, daughter of the American ambassador to England, Alanson B. Houghton, was married recently to Chandler Parson Anderson, Jr., -of New York, in St. Margaret's, Westminster, London, in the presence of leaders in British society and politics. Photo shows the bride and the bridegroom, leaving the church.. with every pupil absorbed in the work. Miss Bess Skog, of Portland, is supervising teacher for the third and fourth grades. An interest ing project being conducted in the third grade group Is that of a course in Americanization, with the slogan, "A good American is healthy, brave, honest, polite, kind. thrifty. and patriotic," worked out by metfns of posters. An illustration of project teach ing of geography is being con ducted in the fourth grade section, with the use of cities and coun tries built on a table. The splendid cooperation of the Salem people, and the high type of pupils present in the summer school, was commented upon by Miss Grace Bridges, teacher of auditorium work in Portland, who has charge of the fifth and sixth grade work. In the seventh and eighth grades a spelling project is being carried 6ut, with the use of ma terial on the business, industrial, and historical aspects of Salem. This work is being carried out un der the direction of Miss Rosella A. Richardson, of Silverton. With the closing of the summer schools next, week, those in charge" have arranged programs at each school, so that those in terested may be able to see just what is being done. The program wiir'be held at Park school on Monday at 10:30, and at Grant school on Tuesday at the same hour. Miss Margaret J. Cosper, prin cipal of Garfield school during the winter term, is the local director of the summer school work, and along with Professor Gentle and the critic teachers sent here by the normal school deserves credit FIFTY CQATi in a riot of hand tinted colors of purple,, green, corn, scarlet, blue, yellow,. etc., and priced at only $ T .

GAMZATIOX OF DISTRICTS At least seven electric light and power utilities now operating in Eastern and Central Oregon are engaged in the reconstruction of old transmission lines and the ex tension and Improvement of their present equipment. Records in dicating the extent of these im provements were filed recently in the public service commission of fices.
