Miss Mary Bowerman was
married to S. Ellis Purvine in
Salem, Sunday, Sept 29, at the
home of her mother, Mrs. Lydia
H. Bowerman. Both young peo
ple are well known to Gillianm
county people, the bride having
practised her chosen profession,
medicine, in Condon for several
years until a few months ago.

don and is highly respected.
The young couple will make
their home in Mann's Addition,
Condon, about the 10th, when
they will return from a short
honeymoon.
A OR EAT WHEAT CENTER.
Condon Warehouses Crowded
with CralnMore Com
ing In Every Day.
All roads lead to Condon. And
all of these roads are lined with
two,, four, six and eight-horse
teams loaded with the wheat and
barley which has been harvested
in the great counry tributary to
Condon.' On Tuesday morning
there were sixteen heavily loaded
teams in line at the warehouses
waiting to be unloaded and in
whatever direction a person
wishes to look they can see large
teams enroute to the warehouses.
It was reported to a repre
sentative of the Globe that one
firm received 5000 sacks on Mon
day last And when one stops
to consider that there are three
or four firms buying grain and
all getting their share they must
be willing to concede that Gilliam
county as a great wheat country
cannot be excelled. '
J. K. Fitzwater left Tuesday
morning for a few days visit in
Portland.
A GOOD IMPROVEMENT
Old Landmark Around which
County Seat Sprung Up To
Be Modernized.
The old platform around the
famous spring at South Main
street will be torn down and the
spring covered over, thus render
ing the street more passable to
the large amount of travel on
that road. The city has had
a large watering trough madefy
Jamieson & Marshall and this is
to be placed just below the Pal
mer building at lower Main
street and fed from a pipe run
ning down from the spring. The
trough is a large one. 17 feet six
inches in- length, and of heavy
galvanized iron and was made to
last
The improvement is a trood one
and will be a boon to the city be
sides providing an excellent
watering place for the large num
ber of horses now on the road to
Condon daily hauling wheat as
well as a good camping place for
those hauling at a great distance. !
This change will do awav with
the old landmark around which
the county seat started its growth, !
and although a few of the
pioneer residents of the county
may miss the old familiar sight
when they come to town, they
will no doubt be impressed with
modern change and improvement

LACK OP BOOK DELAY WORK
Condon High School Pupils to
Be Admitted at U. of O. with
out Special Exams.
The present outlook for a fuel
shortage in Condon during the
coming winter is rather serious.
The local " dealers however are
doing their best to supply the
people. Prices are very high,
pine wood selling from $10 to $12
per cord and coal about $12.
It was reported this week that
a row ocrtired among a threshing
crew that has been working near
Spray and several were severely
beaten. We have been unable to
get any further particulars. .
A son was born to Mr. and Mrs.
I. C. Orwick on Monday, Sept 30.
The total registration of pupils
at present is 160 with new ones
being added each day.
Owing to the fact that we have
been unable to secure text books
we have met with many diffi
cu'.ties, but at the present time
work in all the departments is
progressing and the teachers are
demonstrating the fact that the
text book is not necessarily, the
source of all knowledge. ,
As there is a misunderstanding
with reference to the standing
of this school and the credits
given to a graduate from here,
should he go to a higher institute
of learning, the following state
ment bearing on the question is
made: Graduates from the Con
don High School will be ad
mitted, without examination, to
the freshman class of the Uni
versity of Oregon as is shown on
page 39 of their catalogue for
1907-8 which states: "Schools,
that have a four years' course
with nine months a year, and
subjects running for a half year
or more, five times per week,
with recitations forty minutes
long and which have the subjects
of the state high school course.
will have their students admitted
to the freshman class in the
University."
We have based our course in
accordance with the foregoing,
and in consequence of same, our
students will be admitted in
higher institutes of learning as
readily as students from any
school in Oregon; as will be shown
from the list of "Units" they re
ceive here. It requires 15 units
to enter the university, divided
as follows: English composition
and English classics. 4 units: Al
gebra, U; geometry, H; Greek,
Koman and Mediaeval history, 2;
Physical geograDhy. 1 : botany. 1:
latin, 2: modern history. 1: zo
ology, ; book keeping, J;
physics, 1; political economy, i;
a total of 16 units or1 1J units
more than is necessary for en
trance. All of the above subjects
will be found in our four years
course of study and it is not
necessary to make other state
ments with reference to the
standing of the school as you can
readily see that it is above the
average. .
Under the existing conditions
we are unable to offer but one
course and all the pupils enter
ing are expected to take specified
studies including latin.
Parents are requested and ex
pected to investigate the work
done.
