free text-books should be furnished

Propose Eastern Oregon Normal.
Hopes that the state normal school
question had been settled dually and
definitely at the last general election
were shattered when Senator Oliver
Introduced a bill providing for the
establishment of an Eastern Oregon
normal school at La Grande. Under
the bill an appropr'atlon of $ 100,000
Is made for the use of the proposed
school.
When the bill was read a gasp of
surprise went around the Senate
chamber, followed by expressions ol
mirth on the part of some of the
members, which would indicate that
possibly the bill would not proceed
far before reaching an indefinite postponement.
To the people of Independence:

Jl maker has his own reason for putting his name on a piano. It Is a
ceedltable piece of work. He Is willing to assume the responsibility for Its
future.
Makers who send ut pianos without their factory Imprint have their own reasons also.
Stenciling on the name board any name that strikes a retailer's fancy their own. personality dots
not appear in the attra tlon at all; why, then. Invite trouble? The dealers who sell these father
less "stencil" Instrumenta-sell them, recommend them, do everything but become accountable for
them How can they? Their Interest in a piano that bean ono name this year, another the
next must be more or less transient. Tho purchaser cares nothing about that. He does care,
though about the instrument wearing well. Not for one year nor for ten, but long after the deal
er may have and doubtless haa, gone out of business. That la why all sound piano reasoning
Jeads to buying from the manufacturer or from his direct representatives. Here Is the

Its makers work wlh half a century's experience at their command.. Flawless materials are
chosen Specialized cratomen toll over every detail. The whole is refined, polished, brought to
rar neerfectiou When the inetrumeut goes out into the world to meet artistic standards, the
makers not only sign it with their own name but (such is the personal "paternal" nature of their
feeling) follow its careei with as keen an Interest as a father keeping track of a particularly
promising chHd. jg gterHng aggurance of continued satisfaction. To the
bir mass of buildings omprlslng the Baldwin home you may look for the redeeming of this
pledge. Skilful control t factory economies brings price within the lowest figure consistent with
high quality. , . t
