Mr. Alex Schick, of Salem, to Miss Nellie May Foister, of Albny. The pur lor was very nicely decorated (r tho occasion and the happy couple stood under the arch of roses in the center of which was suspended the family bible of the bride's great rand mother. The effect was very impressive and interesting, for the bible was not only historic, but was also an old pioneer, having crossed the plains in the early 40,s.

It is a good sign to see, at the opening of the public schools this fall, an increased attendance over any former year's enrollment.

Education in years gone by meant, practically, a scant knowl edge of reading, writing, selling and arithmetic. Today it moans position, power and social stand ing; it means wealth or poverty; recognition from the world or be ing ignored by the world; it means nower anions one s fellows or total lack of power; it means an elevated life, above the slums of petty gos sip, and association with refined minds, or a groveling spirit that it the contempt of all observers The illiterate man stands but a small chance f success in the mad race for wealth and fame that is a char4Cteristio of the present day. As a tboioughbred throws dust in the eyes of the awkward draft horse, so the educated mau of today leaves the uneducated one far in the rear an . gathers the honors that the latter would fain call his own. Parents are rapidly awakening to the fact that unless their children are given an education they will' amount to scarcely more than a foil for theif better educated neigh bors, and no father or mother wishes their sons and daughters to feel I he slight of the siwial world. At Eugene, Corvallis. Indepen dence and Monmouth the schools this fall are full and it is well. It speaks highly for the future of the country; well for parents and well for the children. Tne world needs men ami women, and Ihe high schools turn them out. Encourage the teacher in every way possible and see that the little ones are at school each day. It means much to them; it means much to the nation. Our supply of new books in the eood bindings are expected every day and will contain all up to date. Wagoner's. PROFESSIONAL CARDS. W. R. ALL IN D.
