GILLIAM & BISBEL 308 X YES IS A VOTE FOR YOUR CHILDREN SQUARE DEAL FOR EASTERN ORECON If you are In favor of a square deal for the country Eait of the Cascades you will vote for and work for THE PROPOSED EASTERN OREGON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL AT PENDLETON, OREGON. Oregon has but one Normal School. This school li 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 publlo schools, BUT 13 PER CENT are graduates of Nor mal SchoolB. 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 hns a vital In terest In the passage of this measure for Eastern Oregon pays HIGH SALARIES to her teachers and Is entitled to the services of TRAINED INSTRUCTORS. ONLY COSTS 4 CENTS PER $1.000 The annual cost of maintenance of the proposed State Normal School amounts to BUT ONE 25TH OP 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 te become USE FUL AND PRODUCTIVE citizens? STRONG ENDORSEMENT J. A. Churchill, the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, voices the sentiment of the educators of the state when he says: "Oregon's greatest need for Its rural schools Is the teacher who has had fulKpreparation to do her work. Such preparation can best come through Normal School training. "I trust 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 li 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 stnndard normal school." The educators of the State Insist that Standard Normal Schools be located In towns of 5000 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. Gvvlnn, 8ecy., Pendleton, Ore. advertisement) Company Feels That Signs Will be A Great Benefit to the Public and Amply Repay for Money Spent. The O. W. R. N. Co. proposes to in. Mall immediately at important high' way crossings on its lines In Ore gon, Washington and Idaho, caution ary highway signs. These signs wlil be erected at a distance of 300 feet from the track on each side of all crossings. After several months of study and experiment the words "Railroad Cros sing Danger" were adopted. This notice displayed In bold black letters on a white circular target should prove a most effective warning to ap proaching vehicles both by day or night. Statistics show tpere were 1,088 men, women and children killed In train automobile accidents in the U. S. during the calender year of 1915.1 This needless sacrifice of precious hu man lives is most deplorable. Auto mobile manufactures estimate that one million new cars will be sold during the current year, therefore it is not unreasonable to assume an in crease in such fatalities may be ex pected unless all powers and influen ces combine to check this eveil. The railroad company is anxious to afford lis support and co-operation to the movement for greater safety and it will feel amply repaid for time and nv;ney expended in erecting these sijnis if iliey will be instrumental in preventing but one accident. iCiOL NOTES. NEWS NOiES FROM Depot Has Electric Lights. A noticeable improvement in the north end of town is the electric lights which the railroad has install ed at the depot. Iron posts have been erected about 100 feet east and west of the building and lights will be placed on these as soon as the ma terial arrives, these with the lights already in this vicinity will make a good showing and the traveling pub lic will be- pleased witb the improve ment. Arlington Independent. (By Supt. S. E. Nqtson.) On the 18th Inst., I visited the lone school. The building has been equipped with Venetian blinds, so the light is easily regulated. The re gular lines of work were moving a long smoothly. An enthusiastic class i.i manual training was busily at work under the direction of Prof. Doak. Miss Jackson's classes in domestic art and domestic science were equal ly enthusiastic. The domestic science class serve hot lunches to those who live too far from the school to go jhome at noon. The new moving pic ture machine was being installed. This is a valuable addition to the equipment. The library and labora tories have been brought up to the re quirements of a standard high school. The following day, I visited the school in District No. 48. Miss Leo na Waddell is the teacher. Twelve pupils are enrolled, and all were pre sent. The school is occupying a pri vate house until the new schoolhouse is ready for occupancy. The new building will be completed within a short time. Miss Josephine McDevitt teaches the school in District No. 24. Eight pupils are enrolled. A new encyclo pedia and a closed water-jar are a mong the recent additions to the equipment. This school has a fine flag, but the flag-pole is somewhat di minutive. However, the pupils and teacher see to it that the flag is dis played during the good weather. The board is planning to purchase some new desks. In District No. 2, Miss Myrtle Mil ler and eleven pupils r-ere doing good work. A new blackboard has been ordered and will soon be in place. This school has a new flag. The schoolroom has been re-papered. There has been considerable talk of erecting a new building, but it has been decided to wait another yeor. Miss Irene Douglass teaches in Joint-District No. 4-39, near Heppner Junction. This school has three standard pictures. It also has a good flag, which is displayed from an ex cellent flag-pole. This school has taken advantage of the offu of the State Library to furnish one of th free traveling libraries. This is a! i excellent plan. The only expense is the transportation, which amounts to but little. The books are used by the people of the neighborhood as well as by the pupils. At Castle Rock, Prof. J. A. Gibbons is still at the helm. The schoolhouse has been moved to a more suitable site. It has been remodeled so as to have the light admitted from the loft side. The walls have been covered with plaster-board and then neatly papered. This school has a Smith heating and ventilating plant, a fine library which is kept in some excel lent oooK-cases, a suspension globe, a set of weights and measures nml some I good limps. The pupils were making a large cement map of Eurasia. At Boardman, Miss Clara Voyne is the teacher. Eleven pupils are en rolled. A building has been rented Gravel For Echo Roads. Three miles of gravel road will be built this winter between Echo and Butter creek, says the Echo News and a permanent policy of spreading gra vel instead of straw on the roads of the Echo, district will be followed hereafter. This was decided at a recent meeting of the Echo commer cial club. W. J. Wattenburger, road supervisor will have char,;.! of the work. Senator Gore's Defense. In defense of the violation of the one-term plank in the Democratic platform, Senator Gore, in his speech at Pendleton last week, said substa tialy as follows: "Well, it was our plank. It be longed to us. We put it in and we had a right to take it out. I admit that we have taken it out in 1916 But it was ours and we had a right to do with it as we saw fit. But the Republicans are trying to get a strangle hold on the lumber industry of the nation and they won't even al low us to have a plank of our own to do with as we choose.-Pendleton Tri bune. y ?

French, the prominent Gur dane stockman was in the Rock yes terday and is delivering a band of ag ed ewes and lambs which he sold to Chas. and Bob Raney of North Ya kima. Mr. French is a republican and informs the Record that it is his opinion the stockman would be bene fitted by the election of Hughes and a return of republican tariff, especial ly in the event of an early close of the European war. Mr. French is certain that if the present administra tion is in power after the war the price of beef will go to 3 and 4 cents caused by the importation of Austra lian frozen beef. That such would be the case at the present time if the war had not broke out opportunely, is Mr. French's opinion. Pilot Rock Re cord. Preparing For Holiday. Nearlv every store, office and estab lishment of Pendleton is closed for the entire day today. Thursday is a declared holiday in the Round-Up city and everybody will devote their time and attention in boosting for the Normal School bill. Their campaign will extend over the entire county. Indications are that the bill will carry. Mrs. O. G. Crawford and small daughter arrived from LaGrande on Tuesday to join Mr. Crawford, who is now a member of the Record-Chief- tan staff. They are living for the present In rooms at W. W. Zurcher's, but will get them a house when they can find one suitable. Enterprise Re- cord-Chleftan. At the South Methodist Church.

They are Morrow coun ty agents for the Dort car. and converted into a very cosy school room. The room is properly lighted. It is heated by means of a Smith heater. I noted a good broom, a floor brush, and a drum of sweeping compound. A closed water-jar has been provided. The pupils seemed very much interested. The program was well arranged, showing the study periods ns well as the reciatlon periods. An interesting educational meeting was held in the evening.
