This Bank, only a little over two years old, has total resources of over Half a Million.
This is a source of a great deal of satisfaction to all with whom we are associated.

up in most every community in the
County. We are hoping, and that
without fear, to secure aid from the
County, to meet the amount offered
by the O.A.C. and the State, in which
case, we will secure a club leader,
who will devote his entire time to
this work.
The Heppner school has added
this year a teacher tor the special
child, which fills a long want, this is
known as the opportunity room. The
pupils in this room are, according to
their statements, interested in the
school for the first time.
We 'have formed an athletic ana
a declamatory association, which Is
under the control of an executive
committee, consisting of the County
School Sup't and the principals of
each of our High Schools. We hope
to have the support of the entire
County in this new feature.
In conclusion I wish to say that
I am greatly encouraged over the
outlook in this County. There are
many problems yet to be solved,
which we hope may be done in time.
The interest now manifested is the
forerunner of better thing!.

The general outlook of the Edu
cational work of Morrow County is
very good.
We are proud of the progress
which our schols have made. The
true masure of progress is not in
what is the actual, but in what has
been the real improvement in recent
years.
While we are still interested in
what our Fathers did we are more,
concerned in what opportunity our
childen shall have, and with that
thought in mind we have taken up
the line of "Forward March", and
the future is bright with promise.
The school uthorities of Oregon,
working on the creative, construc
tive side, rather than to reveal faults
by directing attention to them, have
selected a number of points which
are fundamental in a good rural or
grada school, stated them briefly,
clearly, and printed them upon a
card, which is entitled, "Require
ments for a Standard Public School".
This card is put up permanently in
some conspicuous place In every
school, where it may be seen con.
stantly by teacher and pupil, also by
I hose patrons who visit the school,
and thus is a constant reminder to
them to live up to Its Ideals. This
card has aided much in creating a
general interest In educational af
felrs. In a large majority of the districts
better sanitary conditions have been
secured, playground equipment has
been installed, supplementary read
ers have been provided, larger li
braries secured, pictures hungon the
wall, a Curtis test for efficiency, and
a Reading Chart purchased, increas
ed attendance and better teaching
have prevailed.
In four districts Parent Teachers
Associations have organized and their
socializing influence is being felt.
Some new buildings have been er
ected, the one at Board man would
do credit to a much larger place.
There are now six Standard High
Schools in the County, lone, Lexing
ton, Hardman, Union High, Board
man, and Irrigon, Heppner, the two
last mentioned were standarized in
November this year.
Salaries are much higher, some
of the rural schools paying $160.
This is $20 per month Increase over
last year. The town and city schools
have also increased their salaries.
