Among other things to be discussed at the school meeting at district No. One next Monday evening is the es tablishing of a high school in said dis trict Before attempting exact discussion of any question it is always best to have terms exactly defined. Just what is meant by "establishing a high school in the district," is too vague a generalization to admit of close argu ment or definite criticism. It may be assumed, however, that the project is to have more advanced grades taught in that building. It is proljable that at the meeting the idea or intention will be elaborated with more exactness, and that it can then be made more satisfactory basis for argument pro and con. It is a ques tion of great importance. Kecogniz ingthe fact that it is cheaper to edu cate a child than to punish a criminal, the state, purely as a matter of busi ness, takes upon itself to give every boy and girl a knowledge of the rudi mentary principles of education. We have little patience with those fine spun theorists who come out of a glass case and say that if the state ed ucates a child, it ought, logically, to Teed it, clothe it, give it a trade, and n start in business. There is no logic in such argument The one does not imply the other, and all practical peo ple recognize the necessity of popular education, and the requisite sustain ing of our national public school system, without which the country would go to pieces. This is not an extravagant state ment Without the public school, this republic of ours wouldn't last one generation. The children go in as in dividual representatives of every country; they have all the inherent elements of the nativity from which they sprung. They come out Amer icans; welded together; homogen eous; no longer Scandinavian or Ger man or English or Irish or French, or anything else but Americans. Nothing else will do that; it is a necessary work, and the most ingen iously devised political scheme couldn't improve on the public school system as a machine for manufactur ing young Americans out of the ma terial furnished. Just how far the state should go in educating the child is a question on which there is considerable difference of opinion. Some think that if the state fur nishes its boys and girls with the rudiments: with what is called an "ordinary common school education," it has done its duty. Others think that the state should do mora They hold that the higher branches should be taught and that when our boys and girls have completed the course, for instance now taught in the public schools of this city, they should have an opportunity to take a high school course. This is believed to be a fair state ment of the case. A few further remarks are in order. It maybe stated without fear of suc cessful contradiction that a public school should give its pupils the ru diments of a common school educa educa teon: that is the vory least expected of it, and that until such result is reached the very first requirements of a school are not fulfilled. It will also be admitted on all sides that these primary requirements may bo briefly stated as follews: A boy or girl after a sufficient time spent at school ought to be able to add, sub tract, multiply, and divide figures cor rectly, read intelligently, and write a legible hand. This, is, certainly, not asking too much, or setting a very high standard of requirements, yet those humble but necessary requirements are what a good many boys and girls haven't got It is the duty of the stite, the city, the school district to see that they have at least a fair chance to attain that and until every boy and girl of school age have an even show to learn the humble butnece3sary "three B's." that school is not filling its func tions. These are the corner stones of the stately edifice that is capped to com pletion by the high school, the college and the state university. Homely duties are none the less im perative because of their humble sta tion. The idea of a high school is a grand ene: it should be our purpose and privilege to have a high school that would bo a "high school," one in fact as well as in name; if our citizens believe that the primary duties of the school are fully up to existing require ments: if the lower rooms are not too crewded: if the primary departments arc not overflewing: if the trained and experienced teachers in those now are getting the salaries they should; if all that ought to be done to insure a boy aad girl a chance to learn to read and write and cipher is done, let us have a kigb school that shall not be out ranked in the slate. Expense in such a case is a secondary object Agcrap el Paper Saves Her life It was justan ordinary scrap of wrap ! paper, but it saved her life.

The memorandum of an agree ment made in Astoria, Oregon, this 18th day of July, 1890, by an 'J between Herman Wise and J. Ash, witnesseth: that each of the parties hereto have depositod with Mr. C. J. Trenchard of said city, the sum of 500, and that it is mutually agreed between the par ties hereto, that if the sales of said Herman "Wise, at his clothing es tablishment at 469 and 471 Second street, in said city, shall exceed the full sum of 15,000 within the next sixty days from the date hereof, all of the total sum of 1,000, deposited as aforesaid, shall be paid to said Herman Wise, on his affording said C. J. Trenchard satisfactory evidence that his sales have in said period exceeded said amount and that if said sales do not in said period exceed said amount, said total sura of 1,000 is to be paid said J. Asb. Witness our hands and seals the dar and year first above written. Herman Wise. .1. Ash. Signed in presence of C. J. Curtis, Notary Public for Oregon. seal Herman Wise is not a betting man, but Mr. Ash was bragging so much about the amount of bus iness done bjT certain houses on the Sound, that Mr. Wise offered to bet 500 that he can sell just as much clothing as any retail clothing house on Puget Sound. This is a matter of home pride, and as Herman Wise offers his entire stock at cost, rather than lose the bet, it is safe to say that Astonans generally will help themselves and their town, by helping Mr. Wise to win this 81,000.
