One of th old conceptions of the ru
ral echool was a little building with
little equipment hr a little teacher
at a little salary- for a little while
taUKht little children tilings.
A more modern idea requrea the aub
tltutton of "big1" for "little" In the
above definition to maunlfy the work
and function of the echool to make It
worthy to occupy a larger place In the
people's thought and affections and this
la Imposaible unless the school broadens
out until Its activities evolve Into peo
ple's universities the school being the
community center.
The development of the Buanlman
community school has been rapid. From
a little one-room shack, with sl pupils,
to the modern building herewith repre
sented In the short term of three years
naurally makes the 100 pupils now at
tending enjoy their work and the peo
ple of the community proud of their ac
complishment. Itvardman Is situated on
the Columbia river and highway, in the
heart of the west extension of the Uma-
100-gallon pressure tank, from which
It is distributed throughout the build
ing, and at present the town Is being
tided over a crisis by securing; water
from the school system. The plumbing
Is modern, tnrlud Ins; porcelain lavatory,
pedestals, white enamel drinking; foun
tains and white enamel sinks. The
building is equipped with five seta of
fire bos and reels.
The sewage is disposed of by use of a
septic tank, and the heating la man
aged by means of a low pressure direct-indirect
system, with an auxiliary
fresh air supply.
Electric service Is accomplished by a
4 K. W., 110-volt generator, four-cylinder
gas engine, with self sjarter and
stopping device. There is a storage bat
tery of 6 cells to supply current when
the machine is not in operation. The
building Is lighted throughout with
this service, and connections are placed
for power for sewing machines, electric
Irons, cooking utensils and motion pic
tures. On the main floor Is located the class
room, office anl library of 300 volumes.
The auditorium Is located in the central
portion on the second story. The base

The primary function of the public
schools Is to make good citlsens. From
the standpoint of citlsenship every
schoolhouse should be the polling place.
This would not only be economical, but .
would emphaslxe the Ideal for which
the ballot stands. We have tried this.
plan in Boardman, and the school Is the!
voting place. Last primary election
was the last day of school; we had elec
tion, observed the closing ceremontes
of the school year, had a speaker on po
litical economy from the state universi
ty, and a community dinner a real
time of good fellowship for the people
of the community, young and old. In
.H.lltlon to the use of the school as a
polling place, all the various organisa
tions of the community use the Dunning
and its equipment for their activities:
The ladles' aid society, the grange, the
farm bureau, parent -teachers' associa
tion, commercial club, community li
brary, hay growers association, the
North Morrow County Fair association
and extension schools. About the only
organisation that doesn't use It is the
church, and there is some discussion of
bringing that In line, where the school
auditorium and class rooms and equip
ment might be used for religious ser
vices, while the small cottage church
could be remodeled fur a manBe.
The next Important step in the de
velopment of the community center
idea would be the federation of the
above mentioned organizations under a
community paid secretary, with a board
of directors composed of the heads of
each department The secretary might
be the principal of the school or some
one who could 1 cooperate with him.
Community work could then be carried
on with a definite plan for all and move
steadily forward In accomplishment of
civic needs and betterments. Oregon

LANGUAGE ENRICHED BY WAR
Great Conflict May Be Slid In a Meas
ure to Have Revolutionized Our'
Methods of Speech.
It is generally admitted that the
war hag revolutionized methods of
speech as It has revolutionised war
fare. The soldiers of the trenehea
have added more words to the Ian
guaKe of simple men thnn would be
added In 2.1 yearn of pence. "Strafe,"
"bllKhty," "cushy" one might fill n
page with the slrange language which
baa come Into use.
The soldiers adopt siting as does a
acboolboy, and to use slang Instead of
ordinary words suggests a certain de
gree of knowlngness and Initlhtlon. It
also appeals to the sense of humor,
and as the soldiers become hardened to
warfare they thrust aside emotions
and talk slnng to avoid the old forma
of speech which might cause them to
think too much.
The American who called a ceme
tery a "bone orchard" revealed a bit
of Imagination and at the same time
concenled his real feelings. The sol
dier who tells you that at the moment
of dnnger he "crept Into the tall
grass" means that he slipped away
and made himself Invisible and he
haa coined an Image as well as a
phrase.
Together wllh the slang words and
phraseg must be mentioned the new
words coined or old words used In a
new way. A large number of words
hag developed from the us6 of air
plane; aircraft, nlrmnn, alrscout, pur
suit plane, bombing plane, empennage
(the stabilizing , plane of the air
plane), aileron (n lateral balancing
plane), avion, escndrllle (nn airplane
unit), etc.
Other examples nre the words de
scriptive of military tactics. Some
of these are Unison (co-operation) be
tween forces ; barrage, ontnouflage, lis
tening post, gas mask, gas shell.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
Ford Forces Down Prices
This newspaper headline extended across the front page of a Portland paper the week
of September 3.
Another Portland paper carried the head line across the entire front page, Ford Moves
to Curb Prices.
These announcements in display headlines indicate news value of the probable effect
of the new Ford Prices upon many other commodities. This great reduction in Ford Car prices
may, directly or indirectly, help solve the high cost of living for you in the near future.
With 146,065 orders,on file for immediate delivery and millions of dollars worth of high
priced raw material in stock, Ford prices are cut to the limit. This is no sale discount or price
concession. It is a radical cut to prewar basis in the belief that this should be done universally
at this time.
The war started in 1914. All the new Ford prices are below the 1914-1915 prices as the
following comparison will show.
NEW 1920 FORD PRICES 191415 FORD PRICES
