A Cheap Boast.
That was a cheap boast made by
Manager DeVarney, of the Home
Telephone Company, that in driving
his automobile from Dallas to Salem
in 37 minutes, he beat the record of
Bert Dennis by one minute. Cheap
for the reason that Mr. Dennis has
nover made, nor has he ever claimed
to have made, the run in 38 minutes.
His offer of $100 to Mr. Dennis to
repeat" the 38-minute run is cheaper
still. Mr. Dennis says he is not in the
racing business and has no desire to
beat anyone's record, his only concern
being to run his machine in a decent
and careful manner that will insure
the safety of his passengers and win
the respect and good-will of the
farmers living along the road between
Dallas and Salem. It is evident that
DeVarney is seeking a little notoriety,
or has rushed into print on the
strength of a "fill" given him by
some person wno aesirea to nave a
little fun at his expense.

President Ressler Complimented
on Fine Showing Made by
Monmouth Normal.
Up
At a meeting of the State Normal
Regents, held in Salem last week,
L. R. Traver, formerlysuperintendent
of the Pendleton city schools, was
elected principal of the trainin
school at Monmouth, to succeed C,
Rice, resigned. Professor Traver
ranks as one of the strongest men i
educational work in Oregon.
jrresiaent itessier was called upon
for a statement of the financial condi
tion of the Monmouth school. He
said the friends of the school had
pledged $G000 and they would receive
from the Monmouth school district
from $3000 to $3500 a year. They had
levied five mills additional taxes,
which would make $2000 more. Upon
his showing President Ressler made it
appear that the Monmouth school was
well provided with funds. August 22
he had deposited $3000 with the board
and last week he offered another check
for $1600.
In other years the school had
received from tuition $4000 to $4700.
Counting $4750 from the district and
$4000 from tuition, he said the friends
of the school had raised $6000 in the
way of donation. He said to do his
best, he had cut his estimate from
$19,400 to $14,000.
The favorable showing made by
Monmouth was commented on by
several of the regents and President
Ressler was complimented. The action
of the executive committee of August
22, and the tenders made by President
Ressler, offering $6000 as a donation
were accepted and approved.
