Cnrstens then addressed thp nudienco on tho subject, "The High School Curriculum and How It Should Bo Regarded." Ho brought clearly to tho minds of bis hearers tbo fact that overy part of the cur riculum is vnlunblo to the student and will help him or her to solve the great problems that como later in life, nnd that parents should encourage ralher than discourage, or treat with indif ference, the student who has a tend ency to become indifferent iu his or her work in high school. A full four-year high heboid course should be tho aim of ocry ituiiil, nnd ,then by all means n college or uni versity course. Ho also suited that criiife and ignorance go hand in hand and that education, intellectually and spiritually, is tbo only safeguard to a useful life. SujKiriutcndeiit Ilillis then read a most interesting paper on tho sub ject of connecting tho schoolroom with tho oulsido world and proved how necessary it is that pupils feel that tho school room is connected with tho outside world; that ho is doing practical things and nut tiling in an artificial world, as is so often (ho cuso with him. Ho should not pursue his course of study reluct nntly, but should enter into it with the same spirit that ho puts into his footbull game or other sports, und that to create enthusiasm for studv in the minds of tbo pupil should be the aim of purcnls und toucherx. Also from u psychological point of iow Mr. Ilillis' papor wnu excellent. Mr. Strattin entertained in honor of her daughter, Miss Lorena Strat tin, Thursday evening with a slumber party.

II. Helms, which has been uceiimulnted during the last fifty years. It consists principally of pioneer curiosities und mineral specimens. But other an tique relies tiro also to ho found in the museum. For example, thero are coins from various Jorcign countries, Juuian tools, worn-out wooden shoes from Hanover, a large variety of iiiiimul horns, Chinese scales, old revolvers, a lino sample of a mastodon tooth, ropes used in hanging borsethieves and photographs of tho smiles of the first flirts during tho mining period. Tho collection is undoubtedly of great human interest, because in tho early pioneer days Holms' place was tho social and political center of southern Oregon. Even from a re ligious standpoint, it played n con spicuous part, as it is a well-known fact that the saloon element was largely instrumental in building tho Methodist church in Jacksonville. For ncnrlyseventy years tho same family ran the saloon, nnd it was only clos ed a couple of yenrs ago by tho present owner. By special arrangement Mr. helms will entertain the visitors next Sun day and show them the collection in detail. The injiyor of Jacksonville, F.mii BrilL is expected ui'givo them tho freedom of hu city fur about oni hour, and then escort tho parly out of the ancient burg toward the mountain.
