Where Our Teachers Spend
Their Vacations
Miss W iederrecht, who was principal
of the High School last year, went to
Seattle to stay with her mother during
vacation. She does not teach here next
year.
The Misses Bracons, Reed and Albin
returned to Portland, where their homes
are, to spend their vacations.
Mrs. W alker was engaged as an in­
structor at the summer school at the
Medford Commercial College this sea­
son, but it has been reported that she
did not fulfill the engagement.
Prof. Davis has gone to California to
stay until he can enter the Officers'
Training camp the middle of August.
He has had considerable military train­
ing, having served in the Spanish-
American war, and is anxious to get
back into the service now that the
country is at war with Germany.
Miss Pierce returned to her home
near Medford.
Prof. Stanley, the Superintendent of
Schools, and Mrs. Ross both live in
Central Point. The Professor and his
wife plan to make a trip to Spokane
this summer, to be gone several weeks.
They will travel in their auto and camp
out on the trip.
Prof. Smith went to Roseburg, where
his father makes his headquarters as
traveling financial and booster secre­
tary for the Presbyterian colleges.
Miss Lester, who lives near C. P..
went to Salem to visit for a few days,
after which she goes to Ohio to visit
the balance of the vacation with old
friends and relatives.
Miss Kincaid also lives near Central
Point and will spend her vacation at
home.
Miss Daily went to her home in
Medford.

When we give our posies away.

J. B. Young, of Shedds, Ore., with
Mr. Rose stopped over one day this
week to see Mr. Robnett, en route to
Sacramento by auto. Mr. Young and
Mr. Robnett are old friends. They did
not stop long, as they seemed to be in
a great hurry to cross the S tate line.
It is somewhat strange that these gen­
tlemen did not appear to enjoy the fine
clim ate of the famous Rogue Rivar
Valley, for the climate here is far su­
perior to that of the ''W ebfoot” val­
ley. Yet they said they were anxious

spending three weeks in the dryest (?)
