then Introduced and after a few pre
liminary remarks entered upon the

tribute. He said that tho people of
the valley had already come to regard
Umatilla county hot only as a large
place geographically, but a place of
large resources and well advanced in
education; that Umatilla stood In the
front in this line Jn the state.

sor" Itoblson, he informed the audi
ence that teachers down in the valley
were trying to drop the word profes
sor when speaking of teachers.
"It has gotten to be bo popular a
term," he said, "that horse-trainers,
men who performed tricks at cards,
the commonest fiddlers, and a long
array of personages are dubbed 'Pro
fessor' nowadays. His teachers were
trying to adopt the terms 'Mr.,' 'Mrs.'
and 'Miss.' "

tled sections and dwelt upon the im
portance of their position and the

by teachers and the first lesson was
frought with Interest and Instruction.
He will take the subject up again to

dent of the East Oregon Normal
school, was then introduced and en
larged upon tho subject, directing his
attention mainly to "Language In the
Primary Division."
A toy do gand a toy cattwere ex.
hlblted. Illustrative of this point. He
called attention to the fact lhat the
girl would be most luteresU-d In the
cat, while the boy would take greater
Interest In the dog. He dwelt upon
the Importance of teaching lessons
and Illustrating them along the line
that would most Interest tho pupil;
the objects that they are most inter
ested in will attract their attention
most and make them think most tho
greatest object in" teaching.

Martlndale a short recess was taken

who showed remarkable training. A
thorough test of the observation and
memory was made. They won the
applause of the entire audience. Miss
Patterson made a very favorable lm
presslon with the teachers. A num
her of tests were made, one of the
most difficult was the placing on the
blackboard six square cards of differ
ent colors, one above the" other oi
the board. The children were march
ed upon tho stage, permitted to face
tho cards for a moment and then or
dered to right about face and turn
their backs to tho board. From mem
ory they were required to tell the
order of the colors, which at the hot
torn, which at the top and give theh
order up and down the column. This
they did quickly while the audience
which was looking at the cards found
it difficult to keep up with them. Nu
merous other tests equally difficult
were made successfully.

Its peculiar burdens. Each has
had to face Its special crisis
and each has known Its
years of grim trial when the country
was menaced by mance, domestic or
foreign levy, when the hand of the
Lord was heavy upon It by flood or
pestilence. When In bodily distress

and under the favor of tho Most High
we are striving earnestly to an active
moral and spiritual uplifting. Tho
year Just passed has been one of
peace and plenty. Rarely has me
people of the United States bad a
greater season of prosperity than we
are now enjoying. For this, all should
tender heartfelt and solemn thanks to
the Giver of all good. Let us seek
to praise Him not In words only, but
by deeds, and by tho way which we
do our duty to ourselves and to our
fellowraen."
