. E. F. Carleton, of Eugene, an­
nounced his candidacy December
29th, subject to the approval of the
voters of the republican party at the
coming primary election, for the
office of state superintendent of pub­
lic instruction.
Mr. Carleton submits his candidacy
and will make his campaign on the
ground that he is fitted by training

of the University of Oregon. Through
these positions he has become famil­

His early youth was spent in Linn
county, Oregon. . After completing
all of-the work then offered'in the
public schools, he secured his first
academic training at the Santiam
academy, Lebanon. After graduat­
ing therefrom, he attended the Uni­
versity of Oregon and Pacific Uni­
versity from which latter institution
he received the A. B. degree. Since
this degree was confirmed upon him,
he has taken post graduate work at
the University of Oregon.
His experience as instructor in­
cludes work in the rural schools of
Oregon as teacher, and as principal
and superintendent of schools at
Joseph, Albany "and Eugene, in ad­
dition to serving three years as in­
structor at the Lincoln high school
in Portland.
Mr. Carleton has had much to do

with
courses of study, working but a'

the fire and the delayed trains is the
cause of the Sherman County Obser­
ver being late at some of the local
postoffices in the county this week.
One of the delayed trains had a re­

Imagine a telephone that would connect with only
half the numbers in the “book! It wouldn’t be
more annoying than a radio set that receives only
half of the stations
The ordinary radio set receives wave lengths only
from 240 to 550 meter».
There are now over •
hundred stations broadcasting on lese than 240 me­
ters not reached by these receivers.
You don’t need two, sets to get all these stations
present snd future. The new Grebe Synchrophase
will tune to them all because it receives from 550
down to 150 meters, thanks to an exclusive inven­
tion—The low wave extoasioa circuit.
