A COMBINED PROGRAM.
Bell fountain School Closes In
" teresting Parents ' Meeting.
The BeilfooiitaiJ subcol closed in a
laze of glory Friday, April 8. after a
t successful term of six months trader
lotorshipof Miss Ellen Dunlap and
TMiaa Allie Reader. The program was
.. -one of the test t ver given in our county.
, 3 compared favorably with those of our-
etj 84-tiools. After the Jegu'ar program
45up. Dt-DUan t-old the bats of the yoang
ladies. The funds obtained were for lit
erary purei, The neat sum of $27
"was obtained in thi3 way.
The parents' meeting arranged by Supt
Denman was united to the closing exer-
-ciseB. Saturday's work consisted of dis
cussions and entertainment on a phono
graph. L. N. Edwards read a good pa
per on "Teachers' Salaries: Are They
- Too Low, If So Why, and Remedy."
lie said the salaries were too low ; that
they should be high enough to hold our
brightest teachers; An average salary in
county was f 31.41, out of which was to
'be deducted board and other expenses;
iBetter pay large salary, and hav better
leathers, and have a shorter term. In
discussing the subjt-ct. J. H. Edwards
reald. "Too many teachers enter the pro
fession temporarily, using it as a step
ling stone to something better. T. T. Vin
cent said, "There should be more inte
8t taken in our schools. Supt, Denman
aid "Higher salaries had taken our best
teachers from us." Ross Mathews thought
4bat we had too ruauy 3rd grade teach 3rs
mho cot wages.
The subject of "Parents Duty at Home"
was ably handled by Koss Mathews. He
made an excellent talk, full of enthusi
asm. "Parents" be said "should sup
port the teacher loyally. Children should
ifae eent to school witn proper books, and
-properly prepared. He was opposed to
-4h district towel. Every child should
fee supplied with one. Start the child to
tacbool first day and keep it there until
term closes."
M. M. Waltz in discussing "Consoli
dation of Rural Districts," said:" By
och a plan, schools could be made u.ore
efficient, the terms would be longer and
ttescbers better." J. H. Edwards said
"'Consolidation is a pioneer work. At
teodance in Wisconsin and Ohio where
las was being used increased 54 to 90
percent. Children are less exposed to
oolds and storms, have better interest
sand inspiration: In Ohio 65 per cent of
ipaplls in consolidated districts passed 8th
jgrade examination, in others only 25 per
cent passed. "Success in Life" "was
bandied with remarkable success by E.
"JL Belknap. He filled his hearers full
of enthusiasm and inspiration as he elo
quently passed from one thought to an
otber. He contended that true success
is living pure, noble and useful lives.
"How to Handle the Dull Boy ?" D.
V. Gragg thought that one the best ways
to accomplish this was by studyiug your
;subject carefully.
. Mrs. Ida Belknap teached the heart of
:all by her inspiring remarks on "How
can Teacher Awaken Interest in the Indif
ferent School ?" She said, "the teacher
.must first be interested and love her
' ptipilo ajid her work. She liked the old
way of boarding around, By this plan both
'parent and teacher could be reached : A
teacher must first control herself, if she
' siconld control the school. .
"W.C. Reese followed her in an excel
lent talk. He thought teacher, patron
snd pupils should come to an understand
ing. By a thorough understanding much
trouble and dissatisfaction can be obvi
ated. The days work was one of profit and
pleasure. The citizens of this section of
oar -county deserve unstinted praise for
itheir interest and loyalty in their schooL?.
Notwithstanding the, pressing demands
on them to remain at home, the Grange
Ylall was filled. Such loyalty in face of
this season of year is indeed a compli
itnent to their enthusiasm. The dinner
'during noon hour here was a repetition
of the many such dinners given in past.
The next meeting occurs in Alsea on
second Saturday in May. X

REAL ESTATE CO
I am so happy and so glad,
I do not now feel blue and sad,
I laugh and talk and take my ease; .
1 come and go just as I please. .
I teU yon waat.1 sold my home
When I listed it with White & Stone.
I was feeling very blue and sad,
My wife she made me almost mad; - -:. '
She did not -want on the farm to stay,
She wanted to selt it and move away,
So I listed it for more than a year -And
still I found myself right here.
The agents took my -place ia hand .
They were so sure they could sell the land.
I sometimes think they did not try
. For they never brought a man to buy,
They gave me a wink with a knowing smile
And tried to fool me all thewhile.
With that knowing smile and wink
They could not fool mejdon't you think.
I saw they would rot sell my home ;
So I listed it with White & Stone.
5fou bet, I fouud them just and true;
They will do your work all right for you.
They will always help you if they can, .
They deal with you as man with man.
They'ie always ready with good advice.
And are not afraid to advertise.
So, if you would buy or sell a home
Just bave a talk with White & Stone.

NEW PIANOS ! !
$50.00 ja $75.00
cheaper than you can buy them in Portland
or of Portland agents. We claim to sell in
struments of the same q uality o0 to $75 cheaper
than any other agents within 500 -miles. This
may seem like a bold statement, but we are
prepared to back it up with incontrovertible
evidence, if given a chance.
ARGUMENT.
AH large dealers, like the Portland firms,
have enormous expenses that we do not have
in the way of immense rent, electric lighr,
clerk hire, freight, drayage and numerous
other bills. Especially is this true of their
agents who cart their pianos around from
town to town, creating bills which you have to
share if you buy of them. Large firms save
about 10 on aipiano bv buying in large carload
lots - Do you think that makes up for the
above expenses? We are in a position to sell
cheaper than any large firms and the way our
customers are ii. creasing gives evidence that
people are finding it out. Beware of spec
ial sales, piano clubs and the like.
No firm can sell goods at wholesale prices to
the retail trade and no firm does. We
always make a profit on our pianos and never
give anyone a special price, or sell to you for
less than your neighbor, as we have but one
J rice the year around. There is not another
lealer iu the Pacific Northwest, to our knowl
edge, which has strictly oue price on each
piano from which they ever never deviate.
At least have a talk with
M. A. GOODNOUGH
before purchasing and see what he has to oner.
Our $250 piano is a thoroughly good instru
ment, of beautiful tone, action, finish and
workmanship and one which would cost else
where $300 so 8325. We have several new styles
coming. Second hand pianos also for sale.
