Clyde Oliver, one of the stalwarts of the town, has been laid up during the week with a bad cold. He does not feel especially well just now but manages to put in just about the entire day at work on the High school gym.

Shaniko School Notes The report of the last school month showed that less than 50 of all the pupils attended regularity, being neither absent nor tardy. This record is low compared with our at tendance in October, when 90 of our pupils were perfect in atten dance. Some of the recent ab sences were due to absence from the town, but most of them were due to illness. " Perfect attendance record ed by departments were as follows: High school, 80; Grammar school, 33 1-3; Primary, 25. Lets do better next month. Having been startled by reading the above parents and guardians of the boy3 and girls will not feel so guilty when they learn that the per centage of attendance wa.t 92 plus.
