Consider now the school teachers
who will visit Pendleton this sum..ier
no become citizens of the r.ound-L'p
town.
'i'hey desire a place to live and eat
when they are here as students of the
normal school.
.They are tJlliiifr H. E. Inlow, su
perintendent of schools, of this desire,
and so numerous are the requests for
rooms that Mr. Inlow has decided that
he will "tell the world.''
Now the idea in mind is about like
thin. Anyone in Pendleton having
rooms available, for school teacher,
dur.ng the term of the normal would
be doing well to call the office of the
Commercial Association, give the num
ber, the location and the charges.
Hestaurant men have made a special
reduction for the co-eds, and it is de
Blred that private folks have a heart
anu make the charges for rental dur
;ng the six weeks aa low as pciMsible.
Present indications are that tho at
tendance -will be large. lA'tteis are
coming in rapidly, and most of the
leacheis desire to get located before
their terms of school nre finished.
Just rooms, rooms with board, and
light-housekeeping rooms are wanted.
Some want one kind, some another.
Consider now the school teachers
and their desires for homes, and tele
phone to the Commercial Association
offices the information about that cx-
tia 101.n1 in the house.
