News of a Personal Nature From
the Weston Neighborhood.
Weston, Sept. 6. The Eastern Or
egon State Normal will open its doors
for the 1902-8 term next Monday
morning.
The first day will be Consumed In
enrolling students and getting things
in working order and the actual class
work will not begin until Tuesday.
The outlook for the coming year at
the normal is much brighter than
ever before In Its history.
A large number o students who
have signified their intention of en
tering the normal will not be able to
enter at the opening owing to the
harvest work not being completed.
Notwithstanding this fact, , however,
the faculty, and especially the re
gents, are well pleased with the out
look and the number of students now
in sight. Many are coming from a
distance and the school will be filled
with students from all over the state.
AlthouEh tho dormitory will accom
modate a large number of boarding
students, the faculty is making every
effort to get rooms and board at pri
vate houses as a shortage in accom
modations Is anticipated.
The new faculty, as announced a
few days ago, has been secured and
all are pleased with them. Professor
Martlndale, who Is to be at the head
of the institution, comes with high
recommendations and all of the other
teachers are Instructors of much ex
nerience and ability.
The new building is not yet ready
for occupancy, but all It lacks is tho
placing of the furniture and curtains.
When this is finished the school will
remove from the old building. The
board of regents is rushing things as
rapidly as possible and it Is expected
that the school will be In the new
ouarters by the first of October. The
new building is first-class In every re
spect, It Is said to be one of tne
strongest and most substantial new
school buildings In the Northwest,
and Its Interior arrangements are
modern and up-to-date.
