Mrs. Edyth Tozier Weathered delivered a very interesting lecture to the pupils of the Hepp ner public schools Monday fore noon. The lecture was given in the high school room on the second floor of the public school building. This room which is large, well ventilated and well lighted was filled to its utmost capacity in accommodating the large number of pupils. The little tots occupied the seats nearest to the speaker gradually tapering off to the larger students in the rear of the room. Mrs. Weathered was introduced bv Professor Reid. Her talk foi an hour and a half was not only interesting, but was instructive to all. Tn looking over the sea of vouns faces Mrs. Weathered stated tbat she could truthfully 6ay that she never looked over a better crop of boys and girls. That as an exhibit no better dis play could be produced than' a photograph of the Heppner public schools. The speaker said that she was still a DUDil herself and was learn insr something every day. She spoke of her early school days in Oregon, of the Joue walks to school through the woods when the school house was built of logs and the seats were uncomfortable benches. That today the schools of Oregon were iust as well equipped as acv state in the union. Each boy and girl was impressed with the fact tbat today there are grand opportunities within reach. Mrs. Weathered gave an inter esting account of her experience at the big exposition. She said tbat tbe pnrents and legislators do not realize the importance of an educational exhibit, and she wanted every pupil to go home and tell their parents that they are tbe advance agents of immi gration and civilization. In speaking of Professor Robinson who has cbarge of the educational exhibit at the Lewis and Clark fair, she said that he had made a special study of the methods of the different states as well as from diffeient countries and that it was his desiie to make Oregon's edu cational exhibit the finest of any state in the union. She dwelt at some length upon the mixed up mesa of our former exhibits at the big expositions and said that we would all have been ashamed to have seen our exhibit at the Buffalo exposition. She spoke of the importance of having the school children write compo sitions about our state. That the 500 compositions that she had at Buffalo were eagerly sought after and fell away short of supplying the demand. She spoke ot the hundreds of calls from the visitors who not only wanted souvenirs from Oregon, but also samples of our products that they could take home with them to the different states and plant. Oregon wheat was much sought after, but as tbe management had made no pro vision for the giving of anything away and as the supply was limit ed the power of this very effVcive way of advertising was lost. To take advantage of past experience, Mrs. Weathered suggested that each pupil of Morrow county pre pare a number of little bags ol wheat for the purpose of gi' ing to Eastern farmers. That each bug should bear a card with the in scription "Wheat from Morrow county, Oregon," and along with this the name of each pupil printed on the card ami inviting corre spondence. Not only with wheat but with the wool industry and other features should be given publicity by the use of cards. She said that in our educational exhibit at the Lewis and Clark fair each boy and girl in Morrow county will be an important factor. Each pupil was asked to write Ladies' Shoes Oar strongeBt line of ladies' nod children's dhoea ie tbe 'Street man" make.
