Strong endorsement for the initiative meas ore looking to the establishment of a slate normal school at Pendleton has boon publicly given by Prof. Robert C, French Of this City, former presl-j dent of the normal school located a Weston. Prof. French was for ai number of years at the head of the Normal School at Weston and 'was still serving when that school was iibandoned. probably no man knows better than he the urgent need of a Standard Normal School in an eastern i iregon city with public schools suf miently large to give the normal students ample practice training "No other section of Oregon Is as dependent on Its putillc schools for noclul and cultural Influences as east ern Oregon.'" he said in discussln; the measure. "Professionally trained teachers to the welfare ol enstrn Oregort coun ure, therefore, even more necessary ties than to more accessible sections of the state. "The previous history of the normal school In eastern Oregon proves that a large number of young people, to whom other educational institutions are not easily accessible, are ready to avail themselves of the privileges of fered by a normal school to prepare themselves for community service in public school work. "An immediate establishment of inch u school ut some central point such as Pendleton, would prove n great asset to the state of Oregon." Portland. PORTLAND, Ore.. Aug. I.
