School Children Asked to Aid
Fool's Errand.
City Superintendent Turner reoeived
Monday a long communication sigaed
by Governor Chamberlain, 6" ate
Superintendent Ackerman and" the
chairman of the Portland Peary North
Pole Expedition, asking that a collec
tion be taken np in the schools of this
city to aid Lieutenant Perry In fitting
out another expedition to try to reach
the North Pole. 8 opt. Turner de
clined to take ep this graft ou the
school children and cou signed the
blanks, to the waste basket, bis action
meeting with the prompt approval of
Chairman Gilkey and the other mem
bers of the board as well as of the
patrons of the school.
Lieutenant Peary has already spent
enough money, contributed by the
wealthy men of New York, in his
numerous attempts to reach the North
Pole to give every school in Oregon
a nine months term, aud now he
wants another flOO.OCO or more with
which to fit out another expedition
aod be has issued a begging letter to
all the schools in the United States
aeking that each child make a con
tribution to the fund. There is ou
practical value to ootne of Peary 'a
North Pole expedition only the glory
that' he would get of being the first to
reach the land of utter doiolatiou.
It Is no credit to Gov. Chamberlain
and Supt. Ackerman that thoy should
endorse this graft ou the school
children of Oregon.

Mevnaanita Heights Opening.
On the gentle slope of Manzauita
heights with a panoram of valley and
mountain range to the front and pro
tected on the north by the rapidly
rlBing foot hills there were gathered
on Wednesday a cluster of poeple to
be present at the opening of the
suburb which cannot fail te be one of
the popular districts of the city.
All day long carriage loads of people
were being taken back and forth to
the Heights at the expense of Mrs,
Mary Thompson, who la disposing;
of the lota. ' At 4 o'olock the award
ing of prices for the best verses
telling of the advantages of Manzanlta
Heights was announced as follows:
1st prize, $25, Mrs. Franoes A. L.
Church, Grants Pass.
2d prize, $5, Boyd Nesbit, Galioe,
Oregon.
8d prize, S3, Mrs. L. W. Hood,
Grants Pass. "'
So expansively and thoroughly had
the advertising been done that verses
that were received from all sections
of Oregon and Washington and s far
east as Chicago, but it is gratifying
to note that the verses which took the
first prize were written by a Grants
Pass woman.
Mrs. Thompson deserves a great
deal of credit for ber enterprise and
the progToanivenesa displayed in plac
ing on the market in the way she did
a tract of residence property and we
trust heir efforts will meet with the
etiooexs she deserves.
Applegate creamery butter is tbe
best made. Ask for it at your grocers.
