Tho bigness of the occasion arlsey thru this being tho wedding, as it were, of tho Oregon Hctail Merchants association, and the Oregon State Retailers' association and not an or dinary wedding, but one of those that always arouse tho greatest interest the reuniting of a divorced pair. rive years ago there was a split in the old Oregon Ketall Merchants' as soc. ution, which has functioned now for fifteen years, and the Oregon State Retailers' association, develop-! c-d as a rival organization.

After a discussion of the present crit ical situation, and tho many advan tnKOs to bo Rained by a state wido tax for tho support of our common schools, steps were adopted for giving tho proposed measure such publicity as should be necessary to secure tho passage of the measure In thoso sec tions ut least represented at the Uutte Kails meeting. State Supt. .1. A. Churchill, County Supt. G. Ager and a number of school officers spoke of tho present situation and of the necessity ot hav ing something done at once. Our state superintendent predicts that, unless the measure is passed, there will be at least 500 schools in Ore gon without teachers next fall. Tho plan of distribution ns out lined in thes measure will glvo the districts better' than $351). for each teacher employed. Since-about one third of tho school districts in .lack- son county huvo niado provision for the minimum of $iil!U with which to run their schtals, an amount hardly sufficient to maintain a ono room school, it is predicted that tho mca sure will meet with tho same unani mous approval in other parts of tho county and state as it did with 1hnse in attendance at tho Uutto Falls meeting. The scarcity of teachers Is bound to bring up salaries, which for ele mentary school work bid fair to range frcni $100 a month up. School board members ipiito generally com prehend tho situation and soiuo havo already sccurod thoir teachors for tho term beginning in September, 192 0 The Hultc Falls convention was well attended by "both school board members and teachers from tho var ious districts In tho northeastern part of the county. zine states, lie having been tho pio- I ncer potato man, and also showed ; that cabbage can be grown in this i sectlcn.

Wo believe this is tho highest price at which any piece of land In Mitchell county has ever been sold. This tract lies just on the edge of that town and it does not have a building on It. However. It is In a high state ot cul tivation and has been a money maker for Mr. Gilbertstn for some years, he having been raising onions on It, and it Is saiil .Mr. Scdlacek will make the same use of It. There Is perhaps no man better qualified than Mr. Sedlacek to judge what can be done with land In that community. Fifteen years ago ho was chopping wood at a dollar a cord and today It Is said, ho Is worth $1100.000, most of this immense fortune having been made In that length cf time by raising vegetables. Mr. Sedlacek is one of the men whom the Country Gentleman noted last week In Its big UluFtrated write-up of the truck growing Industry In Mitchell county, lie has raised onions, cabbage and potatoes, mainly potatoes, the maga- j LIBERTY Fatty Arbuckle In Last Times Today ,This of Merriment The Hayseed' AND Marguerite Clark in 'Luck in Pawn' TOMORRW Enid Bennett in "Stepping Out" Jt ilirows a searchlight on .v - Modern Marriage SUNDAY Hobart Bosworth in "Behind the Door" ship your furs tr iaaaafv ' Tit I T a a MiiaflTill M I 3 O1020 A.
