BIG CEM1 y Sells Drugs and Books , rA.'.IWWA V',-,1 NORMALS ARE NEEDED . "In my Judgment, Oregon now needs more normal schools In. order to meet the demand for trained teachers for elementary and gram mar school grades," said P. I Camp bell, president of the 'University of Oregon, In endorsing a measure es tabllslilng two . additional normal schools In Oregon, and which will be voted on by the people at the coming general election. ' Provision Is made In tho measure tbat one of the schools Is to be located at Ashland and the other In Eustern Oregon, the site for the latter to be chosen toy 'the Oregon Normal 'school board. ! Neither school Is to lie built until af ter the war. ' The state divides Itself Into three distinct geographical divisions which lend themselves economically t6 a plan for three additional normal schools, one In eastern, one in 'West ern, and one In southern Oregon," continued President Campbell. ' "I have advocated this plan for many years, and am more fully convinced than ever before that It la tbe right one. ' ' "The particular work of the de partment of education at tbe Unlver slty of Oregon Is that of training teachers for the high schools of the state, declared President Campbell In saying that It would not be prac tlcal for the university to train teach era for the elementary and grammar schuols. All of the training given In this department Is designed to pre pare for teaching the various sub Jects offered through tbe high iachool curricula. .The teaching prac tice that la given to tbe seniors un dor the direction of this department Is given In tbe high school. No pro vision is made for Instruction In ele mentary and grammar school meth ods. The preparation of teachers for all grades below the high school is the distinctive work of the normal schools, and In my Judgment should be left under their control. "The experience of practically all the states of the Union seems clearly to Indicate that the organization by which the training of high school ' ""0. teachers 1 assumed' by ' tbe univer sity, and tbe training' of elementary and grammar school teachers la as sumed by tbe normal school, la the most effective one. blnce ail teach ers In the public schools should be required to bave training, and alace the number runs Into tbe thousands, it has been found tbat several well organized normal schools ' In each state constitute the only practicable means of supplying tbe demand. These schools also have the advant age of bringing tbe training course home to the students aud of serving as valuable educational centers to the sections where they are located. "I sincerely hope that the measure pending on tbe ballot to provide Ore gon with two additional normal schools may carry on November Sth by a larne majority of the electorate of the state." NIAGARA GETS POWER STATIOII Work Is Necessary to Electrical Demand. Meet 300 FOOT HEAD IN CHANKR Immediate Production of 300,000 Elec trical Horse Power Is Planned Canal to Be Built to Allow Future Flow of Water Capable of Trebling Present Production New Power Available Only for War Work. ' One of the greatest water, develop ment projects of the many centering bout Niagara Falls has been launched on the Canadian side of the river. It contemplates an Immediate production of 800,000 electrical ,hors power, or eqnal to' approximately one-half the present total development on both aides of the river, and It may expand to 1,000,000 horse power. Actual work on the new channel was begun recently by the Ontario hydro commission. There were no ceremo nies and- the launching of the work was virtually nnlruown to the general public .The channel will encircle the city of Niagara Falls, Out, one running from the Wetland river, tributary of the Niagara above the cataract, to the escarpment below Qneenston heights. The power house will be located on the river level almost at the foot of Brock's monument. . 300,000 Horse Power Planned. The channel la the first one planned to get the full benefit of tbe difference In level between Lakes Erie and On tarlo, approximately 300 feet The old companies, with penstocks located close to the foot of the cataract, get a bead of about 200 feet Tbe additional 100 feet head. It II estimated, will make It possible to develop tbe 300,000 horse power with the same flow of ter required to develop 100,000 horse power at the falls. While the units under construction for the power bouse are planned to produce only 300,000 horse power, the canal Itself will be built. to allow future flow of water capable of treb ling this volume. Tbe Ontario hydro-commission Is ft provincial body, appointed by the O j tarlo government It distributes bower i to Ontario municipalities within a ra- dlus of 200 miles of the falls at low j cost A large part of the current gen- ; crated on the Canadian side, formerly exported and distributed by an Amert-: can corporation, baa been cut off. Ca-! nadlan power for Canadian Industries ' has been the motto of Sir Adam BecE, : rhalrman of the commission, and war , conditions have brought a speedier ap plication of tbe policy than had been expected. s I Treaty Limits Water Diversion. ; j To replace the Canadian current thus lost, a steam generating plant bas been built here with an ultimate capa city of 140,000 horse power. Steam plants and water power plants far down tbe state have been drawn upon to keep Buffalo factories going. Part of the current from the new hydro plant will be available for American Industries, but only those engaged In war work. Sir Adam has announced, i Under the treaty between Canada, Great Britain and the United 8tatea tbe diversion of water on the Canadian aide la limited to 86,000 cubic feet a econd. The limit on the American Bide la 20,000 feet ; Canada already bas authorised the diversion of all but 6,000 cubic feet of her allotment Under special war per mits the American companies are also within a few hundred feet of their limit The new channel will carry off about 10,000 cubic feet of water a second. This will necessitate some readjust ment of the allowances to the other Canadian companies unless the treaty Is modified. This has lead to sugges tions of consolidation of all the Cana dian companies and the 1,000,000 horse power development. ' .' . j i Home-Made Plaater.
