We maintain a standard Oregon four year high school and offer a variety of courses W hile our school is not us large as some of the others, we are equipped with efficient teachers and standard apparatus which enables us to offer as thorough instruction as any of the others. We are prepared to handle fifteen or twenty more pupils just as easily as our present number. We charge Jackson County residents no 1 tuition. The enclosed circular describes the course in a general way, The boys 1 and girls who do not expect to go to college after graduation from high school Will be especially interested in the complete four vear course in com morce, the sowing course, the cooking ( course and the high school teacher’ s : training course. All of these are in- j tended to prepare the students for their l life work.
