Reduce the stocks of The Peo ples Warehouse to normal condition in the next two w eeks, sell thousands of dollars worth of the best merchandise ever offered to the people of this vicinity. HOW AM I GOING TO DO IT? By co-operating with The Peoples Warehouse in giving unusual values and telling the buying public about it in a very frank way. I believe there are so many thrifty men and women in Pendleton and vicinity that will ap preciate an opportunity to make their money go farther in the purchase of wearables that the time stated will be sufficient for The Peoples Warehouse to get their stocks, which are far too big for this time of year, down to the level. Will you stretch the purchasing power of your money? If your purchases continue for the two weeks in proportion to what they were Saturday I will have more than accomplished my purpose. r f t : 11 II s 1 9 0 S.&Qi i7 HI Lot 1.

High Mountain FWd Proud. to B (ioml itrddlng Out KvMn Found Beneficial to Sheep Honlem Agree It Is Ilrtlor Tlutn Old Way'. In reporting hie Wallowa county wool sales In the National Wool Grower, Fred W. Falconer gl'e the following regarding the sheep Indus try there: There will be about sixty thousand ran rue lambs shipped from this coun ty this fall and while the lambs did not come off the spring ranges at fat as the sheep owners expected them to be, we hope we will still he able to make tltem prime In time to ship this fall. Our high mountain feed promises to be the best we have ever had and we have Inaugurated the beddlng-out-system In handling the sheep In this county. Those of us who tried It last year found that we could greatly Im prove the quality of our lambs by doing this. I mean by the bedding out system that we do not bring the sheep to camp every evening, but al low them In camp wherever night overtakes them. Most of the herd that have tried this have agreed that this Is the much betlcr way to han dle them Wallowa county Is very short of sheep. I do not think there Is over eighty-five thousand sheep In this county, not counting the lambs, nnd I doubt very milch whether they will ever exceed this number In the fu ture, although the sheep business has been a very paying proposition to the sheepmen of this county this year, and we think the prospects are verv blight for Ihe future. Lambs have been contracted for fall delivery In this county for five dollars and seventy-five cents per hundredweight. Some February Inmbs have been sold for July deliv ery for six and one-half rents per pound nnd six cents has been offer ed for March lambs delivered In Au gust.

Since the fire that destroyed one of the grammar schools December 23 there has been a great improvement and that not by reason of building a new and better building, either, but by reorganizing the school work of the city on the Gary plan. The day before the fire, William Wirt, head of the Gary schools, had been fine of a group of distinguished educators conferring with Supt. El dred and Dr. William Chandler Smith, vocational education director of the Troy schools. He was on his way home but Kldred and Smith wired for him to come back. He said, under th Gary plan, he could make room for the 500 children of the burned gram mar school in the big central school building already thobght to be used to capacity. "When the term opened," said Dr. Smith, "we had in the Central school, not Mio remilar pupils and a few hun dred part time and evening students, but nearly M'lO day students. More over, under the Wirt dual system we found we had room for ison to 2.0UO children, giving them all a full pro gram of work, study and play. "The wonderful thing about it was the instant economy achieved, the per capita cost of operating was cut al most in two. "The auditorium, for example, one of the most expensive roimis In the building, had formerly been in use for about thirty minutes a day. The rest of the time it was empty, unproduc tive, earning nothing. Now It was a hive of industry all day long. Before the shops and the domestic science rooms were used only a few hours a day: now they were In constant use "It waji the same with the gymna- CASTOR I A For Infant and Children. The Kind Yea Hare 'Always Bought Bear tbi Signature sium and the playground, all other de partment, before working half time, now earning their living every minute of the day. Talk of efficiency, that building spells efficiency from base ment to roof. It is an object lesson to the town. "We employ no more teachers than before, nor do we work them any harder than before. We transferred several of the classroom teachers to auditorium and gymnasium service, and we assigned other teachers to special classes.'' "How did the teachers like the new plan? Coming so suddenly, it would not be strange if some of them found it difficult to adjust themselves." Dr. Smith smiled. "They thought it was going to be difficult," he re plied. "You know what the regents examinations are, and how teachers begin to brace themselves for it along the first of the year. For a few days after the change was rnad I UHed to hear teachers exclaiming. 'What shall we do about the examination .' I shall never get my children ready, In all this confusion. I know they'll all fail.' "Well, curiously enough, when the examinations were over It was found that more children had passed than had passed before in those two schools. It was a remarkable record they made. Hardly anybody failed. The fact is. the children were so stimulat ed by the new life of the school, they were so inspired by the richness of the school program, and the freedom of the new system of administration, that they found It easy to study." "They didn't find freedom demoral. izing then?" "Demoralizing? That depends on what you call demoralization. .Some times teachers visiting the school ex press horror at the noise In the halls between classes. But I say to them that there Is nothing improper In a certain amount of noise In a school building, provided the noise Is made at the right time. "Just now, I tell them, there is no Hfhool here. For five minutes the business of the children is to change classes. While they are doing that 1 wuntthem to relax. I want them to talk. I ntit thern to stop on their way. and I have bulletins of every sort pinned to the walls at intervals to catch their attention. That kind of tljing quickens the Intelligence, frees the mind and creates Initiative. "We hope, at least, that we can make all our school buildings serve the children, not a few hours a day, nine months in the year, but all the time. The children deserve this much. I am certain, that the school shall be open to their needs at any time of their awaking life." Thiny-slx for 25 Cents.
