name, though they may be of the
hire. It is so small.
This afternoon, after an address by
Effie B. McFadden of the San Fran-
" World
cisco State Normal

Knowledge in Education,” Superln-
tendent Ackerman spoke on the
theme, "The Educational Retrospects
and Prospects.” He discussed the
situation in Oregon, what the teach
ers. the school districts, and children ■
need.
While Oregon Is well up
among the states in point of literacy,
her school system, he showed, was
susceptible to Improvement.
Some of the teachers will stay for
the University summer school, others
will go to Monmouth, while still oth
ers will go on vacations to their
homeH, or to summer employment.

the marshal—though Crow really has
little use for an official of this kind

foot races, a baseball game between

tiest woman. There will also be an
unusual assortment of plug uglies.
