' 308XYESISAV0TE FOR YOUR CHILDREN SQUARE DEAL FOR EASTERN ORECON If you are in favor of a square deal for the country Fast of the Cascades you will vote for and work for THE PROPOSED EASTKKN OREGON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL AT PENDLETON. OREGON. Oregon has but one Normal School. This school is located at Monmouth and is not able to supply more than TEN PER CENT of the teachers re quired in the public schools of Oregon. Of the more than six thousand teachers In our public schools, BUT 13 PER CENT are graduates of Nor mal Schools. It Is a matter of simple justice to the country East of the Cascades to establish a Normal School East of the mountains to furnish thoroughly trained teachers for the schools of Eastern Oregon. TRAINED INSTRUCTORS WANTED , Every resident of Eastern Oregon has a vital in terest in the passage of this measure for Eastern Oregon pays HIGH SALARIKS to her teachers and is ontltled to the services of TRAINED INSTRUCTORS. ONLY COSTS CENTS PER $1,000 The annual cost of maintenance of the proposed 8tate Normal School amounts to BUT ONE 25TH OF A MILL OR 4 CENTS ON A THOUSAND DOL LARS of taxable property. Isn't it worth this to you to have your children trained to become' USE FUL AND PRODUCTIVE citizens? STRONG ENDORSEMENT .1. A. Churchill, the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, voices the sentiment of the educators of (he Btate when he says: "Oregon's greatest need for Its rural schools Is the teacher who has had full preparation to do her work. Such preparation can best come through Normal School training. "I truBt that the voters of the state will assist in raising the standard of our schools by establishing a State Normal School at Pendleton. The location is central, the interest of the people of Pendleton in education most excellent, and the large number of pupils in the public schools will give ample oppor tunity to all students to get the amount of teaching ' practice required In a standard normal school." The educators of the State Insist that Standard Normal Schools be located in towns of 6000 popula tion or more and having ENOUGH GRADE PUPILS FOR TEACHER PRACTICE. BE LOYAL AND VOTE RIGHT Show your loyalty to the best Interests of Eastern Oregon and of the whole state by working for this measure and by voting YES FOR NO. 308. By vot ing YES for No. 308 you will help to GIVE TO THE SCHOOL CHILDREN OF OREGON THE SAME ADVANTAGES ENJOYED BY THE SCHOOL CHILDREN OF OUR NEIGHBORING STATES. Eastern Oregon State Normal School Committee By J. H. G'-; 'ni Bffcy., Pendleton, Ore. (Paid advertisement) IONE NEWS NOTES. (Continued from page one) on last Friday night of a new son, weight, 9 pounds. Ed says the boy j looks just like his daddy though he is not quite so large. Mother and child are doing well. Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Waters and son Delmar, were in lone for a couple of days this week. Mr. Waters being called here In connection with busi ness of the C. T. Walker estate From the way he was shaking hands with, everyone we should be led to suspect that he is running for office, though we did not hear it mentioned. A. A. Agee, of near here has been trying the experiment of raising broom corn this summer, and suc ceeded quite well. He planted but a handful of the seed, and as the cane has ripened he has made a couple of brooms from it, one of which was on exhibition at the store of F. S. Ben der & Co. and is a good specimen of work considering that Mr. Agee had no broom making machinery to work with whatever. We should think from the sample exhibited, that the raising of broom corn could be car ried on successfully In this vicinity and hope to see it tried out thorough ly. A good move Is on to straighten the road through lone west to the C. R. Johnson farm, a total distance of about three miles. The new road would follow the foot of the hill on the north side of the railroad track and would eliminate some eight cross ings. By putting the road on a grade along the, hillside a splendid road can .be made that can be easily main tained owing to the rocky formation. It, will be necessary to blast off a couple of points, also, but this is not a serious obstacle. A plan to place the road on the south side of the railroad has long since been abondon ed because of the creek and the ne cesslty of extra bridges. This new plan lias the sanction of the County court and the hearty endorsement of the people of lone and the traveling public. John W. Ash, contractor, has arriv ed from Corvallls with his outfit pre pared to commence work on the new concrete bridge across Rhea creek at the Ben Buschke place. He Is meet ing up with difficulty at present as he is unable to get men to work on the job. He contemplates a trip to Portland to engage the necessary help to put the job through. This class of bridge work Is of a kind that will Inst all the time to come. The 'new bridge will be entirely of con crete and no lumber of any descrip tion on it. The policy of the county ! court in putting In this kind of bridge construction will surely meet with the heartiest commendation on the part of the taxpayers. Once the job is done there is no further cost of re pairs, and all further bridge constru ction should be of this character, es pecially on the much traveled thoroughfares. i t y f ? t v f t ? ?
