ADVANTAGES ARE TOLD County fiiincrlntentWlt To) In ITow t'lillilivn Are Carried Many Miles to ScJiool Good roads, the school hue. the union school diitrlct -these three have brought about a condition of vastly Improved efficiency In the rural schools of T.an county, tn the opinion of K. J. Moore, county school auperlntendont, Ijino county ha nine union blh schools which ore the result of the consolidation of three districts, ac cording to Mr. Moore. Thl la more than any other county In the state of Orefroi, can boast at tha present time. There are also SS standard hlph schools union and district. In the county. These consolidations have been made possible thrnu-rh the use of school busses which pick tip the vnunirsters In the ntornlnit and take them home In the evening. The bus svstom. In turn, hns been r.iado pos sible by the Rood roadseand other Improvements made within the past few years In Ore iron. . Bus System lias Advantages "The advantages of the school bus system are many." said the superintendent. "In the first place. It irlves country students the op portunity to enjoy the same educa tional privileges na city children. Better school building, better and fewer teachers, better educational conditions, easv transportation for sparsely settled districts, are of fered by the consolidation system. Feeondly. absences and tardiness without (rood reason or absencea because of severe weather and im passable roads are now Inexcus able. There can't be very manv tardy pupils when they're hauled , to school, and the attendance la enlendld under this svstem. Thirdly, tha system allowa for the cuttlnr down Of expense In te county. When two o three small schools are consolidated, one teacher can handle the prnnher of pupils where as two or three were needed be fore." T!srct 1st and Ml. the Tleail fimi Orove and Ped Oak districts. hsve consolidated this year Into J 21. Te districts se located on te road between Ftmlra and Franklin. Because of the consnll ' datlon. enoueh money was available nn that no aneclal tsr was voted. One teacher can handle the 25 stu dents nicety. Four Districts Consolidate In 192!. four districts In the Tri angle lake country. 12'- H. l' ; and 90, making; an assessed valua-l tion of this district of around j ,d11.UUU. A MUW KUWl " " " . at Blachly, and consists of a high school and grade combined. Two high school teachers and two grade teachers are employed. The atten dance has increased so that next fall another grade teacher will be put on. Mr. Moore said that this - means the people of that vicinity could now give their children a good education. Most of them were unable to send the youngsters into Junction City or Eugene to live while attending school. During the last year, Greenleaf district, number 15S. voted to con solidate with district 90. The bus hauls the extra attendance as well as before. Later in the year, district 18S , asked to be consolidated with num per 90. This was done making ell districts, which were once one room schools with rather poor equipment and little chance for improvement, into a fine high and1 grade achool with 135 pupils. McKeniie Districts Units Two or three years ago, 123 and 167 on the McKenzie united. The transportation wagon hauls the younesters to this school 11 miles distant. One high and one gram mar school teacher handle the SO pyplls in the one school, which Districts 158 and 161, to the low ing. Fall Creek's three one-room schools from districts 96, 172, and 132 consolidated. Districts 188 tnd 161. of the low er Siuslaw. consolidated. These dis tricts were just about to go out of existence because of lack of enough children to pay to keep school open. The consolidation made It possible for those few dvslrlng edu cation to get it and to set a better one than was possible before. The latest districts to unite are those of the upper Mohawk valley, bringing together the high schools of Wendllng, Marcoia, and Mabel, numbers 64. 79 and 163 respective ly. The valuation of the three dls . trlcts is placed at 11,000,000. A $20,000 high school building is now in use where four high school teachers are employed to Instruct the 65 pupils. The building is lo cated at a convenient distance from all three of the towns, a short dis tance from Marcoia toward Wend llng, and at the junction toward Mabel, Mr. Moore concluded. HOTEL EMPLOYES PLEAD GUILTY AND SENTENCED Vigo Foch Sent to Jan and Lee Kim Fined) Basement of Osbnrn Is Searched Vigo (Vic) Foch, baggageman for the Hotel Osburn, was arrested early yesterday afternoon by Sher iff Taylor and Chief Deputy Bvar verud on a charge of possession of liquor and later ho pleaded guilty 'in Justice of tho Peace Wells' court. He was sentenced to serve four months In the county Jail and to pay a fine of $500. Lee Kim, Chinese, a kitchen helper at the Osburn, was arrested later on a charge of possession and was fined $100. Foch, the officers stnto, has been v suspected for the past two years " and in his arrest they believe that the source of liquor supply for a good many local men haj been shut off. In Foch's effects they found a list of names of 30 or 40 men, some of them more or less promi nent, who, the sheriff and his dep uties believe, are his customers. ' Receiving a tip that a sale of ' moonshine was about to be made i by Foch, Sheriff Taylor got out a search warrant and he and Deputy Hvarverud went to a room in the basement of ths hotel wliero two gallons of liquor was found.
