Willamette Chorus Singers Give Sacred Concert Here, A chorus of gingers from the stu dent body of Willamette university came to Monmouth Sunday evening and gave a sacred concert in the Normal chapel before an audience of nearly a thousand people. All of the churches of the city gave up their Sunday evening services to al low their congregations to attend. The concert was voluntary and not even a collection was taken. That it was appreciated was shown repeat edly by the spontaneous applause that followed the different numbers. The violin numbers by Mr. F. M. Chapman met with- especial favor as 'did the chorus directed bv Prof. E. W. Hobson and tho different vocal numbers. Normal Situation From Oregonian Writer's View Although both Ashland, Jackson county, and Island City, Union coun ty will have bills in the legislature requesting the establishment of nor mal schools, sentiment among the leg islators in Salem Saturday tended to favor the enlarging of the present normal school at Monmouth to avoid duplication of overhead expense. Although the bills have not yet been prepared for consideration of the legislature, it is likely that the Monmouth Normal School will re quest the appropriation of $145,000 for the establishment of a teachers' training school in Independence, ap proximately 75,000 for the con struction of new class rooms at the school and $50,000 for additional maintenance. This in addition to $276,000 approved for the Monmouth normal school by the state budget commission. Establishment of a normal school at Ashland will be urged by the dele gation from Jackson county. It will be contended, according to reports, that the old Normal school buildings there are still intact and could be renovated, repaired and made avail able for school purposes at an ex pense not exceeding $100,000. Per sons who recently inspected these buildings, however, have disagreed with the Jackson county delegation, and expressed the opinion that it would be economy to wreck the pres' ent structures and use the land for the establishment of a new plant. Should the latter plan be adopted it would be necessary for the legis lature to appropriate for not less than $200,000 for new buildings with i a liberal allowance for maintenance. Island City wants a normal and will probably have a bill before the house within the next three or four days. This plant would cost approx- , imately the same as the proposed ( Ashland normal plant.

R. Miller) I wandered on a frosty day, Upon a hill, not far away, Where silver birches, spruce nnd vines W;ere traced in silvery designs, So frail, so delicate and rare, That, just one breath of summer air Would cause them quickly to expire, Like snow flakes falling into fire. Dead spruce tips stood, like glistening spars, Bedecked in gems as bright as stars, That winked and twinkled in the light Like diamond facets, bluish white. , Alone the trapper's cabin stood, A crystal palace in the wood, Each log, the window panes and eaves, Embossed in glistening silver leaves And flowers, without a counterpart, That dared Aladdin's magic art. As tho each elfin heart to thrill, A tiny stream ran down the hill, . The music from whose magic lip Breathed naught but sweet compan- , ionship; Here, happy wood folk might have played, Or princes passed in dress parade Before their sovereign, proud to own A jeweled bird house for a throne.
