For number o! year In Oregon i tax hu been levied In each county for the purpose o paying the high school tuition of pupil who come from district that do not maintain high schools. This tax has been lev ied by the county court upon Infor mation and advice furnished by the county superintendent, and claims for tuition have been made by the various high school districts and have been checked and paid by warrants drawn by the county superintendent upon the county treasurer. The 1933 legislature passed the Non-High School District law which changes slightly the administration of this fund.

At the annual school meeting held June 19th of this year, the entire non-high school territory of the county comprising the above named school districts will vote on the en tire list of csndldates In such a man nr ui will cause one candidate to be elected from each zone. The polling place in each district Is designated as the school house and the hours of election on June 19 will be those designated by the board of education i th. notices Dosted In each dlat. The school board In each district Is the election board and ballots of this election will be canvassed oy tne trlct boundary board which Is made up of the county Judge, the two county commissioners and the county school superintendent. These five men will hold office for five. four, three, two and one year r..niu-tiveW as thev receive the high ..t t hlehest.. etc.. number of votes. The director receiving the low est number will hold office for one year and his zone will elect his sue eussor next year. The tone In which the two year member' holds office will elect his successor in two years, etc. These board members receive sslary with the possible exception of mileage wniie aranaing mecniin-, and have as their duties the follow ing: 1. To levy annually a, tax on the non-high school territory tor high school tuition. 3. To make contracts with high school In the county relative to high school tuition and transportation matters. 3. To Issue warrant In payment of claim against this fund 4. To make reports required by the state and county superintendents. 6. To provide polling place and i appoint Judges, snd csnvsss vote for the election of It member. 6. To make an annual written re port to the taxpayers. 7. To pay election and other neces sary Incidental expense of the board out of the nigh scnooi tuition iuna. It should be borne In mind that the election of this board la not In any way connected with the county unit law for school administration, and also that the tax this board levies is not an additional tax: nor are the duties of this board new duties. The non-high school district board simply performs functions heretofore Uken csre of by the county superintendent and the county court; and It Is hop ed such an arrangement will work out to a moot efficient administra tion of high school tuition matter. Petition for nomination to the of fice of director must be signed by at least thirty legal voters In the tones from which th candidate expect to be elscted and these petltlc?. must be signed and In the hands of the Declaring that Jackson county pos- the beet repeal organization in the state, A. A. Price and J. T. Summervllle, official from th Port land headquarter, pui their personsl O, K. on the four local wet candl? dates to the constitutional conven tion during a visit here last week. This, of course, did nothing to "dsmpen" the already present enthu slssm of the four local men. Abso lut faith that the Oregon conven tion wll declare for repeal by an over whelming majority was expressed by all of them. The 18th amendment should, must snd will be repealed." asserted At torney a. M. Roberts, candidate and a former district attorney of Jackson county. Declaring that it is only fair to put the question of repeal into the hands of the people. Mr. Roberts said: Dry Law Not Representative. "The 18th amendment was adopted by a two-thirds majority of the legis latures of the state. In this manner the people did not really have an opportunity of expressing themselves, because the leglalatures were not truly representstlve of the feeling of the people at that time. Tills amendment likewise was the result of wartime i legislation when a tremendous num ber of our truly representative Amer ican citizens were on foreign soil. 'The noble experiment hss certain ly failed; the fact should be recog nized by everyone. Then, in all non- esty, the law should be repealed, and the overwhelming expression of the voters registered at the poll In the July special election." A dismal farce." was how Attorney Rawles Moore, another former district attorney and repeal candidate, de scribed the 18th amendment. Main Issues conwused. One of the many serious evils brought about by prohibition la its tnfluenoe upon national elections." he ssld. "We know that in practice our presidents snd congressmen are elected bscuse'of their stand on liquor, rather than on tariff, world court or economics. Consequently. our votes on those other Importsnt national questions are completely nullified, resulting In confusion on questions of national policies and a growing discouragement to the aver age voter. "The only cure for this situation Is to repeal the 18th amendment open ly, frankly, unequivocally, quickly." A. C. Nlnlnger, business man and candidate from Ashland laid upon the shoulders of prohibition a large share of the responsibility for the depression. "The 18th amendment and result ant legislation hss robbed our gov ernment of a sorely needed revenue," he stated, "snd at the aame time loaded her down with th stupend ous burden of enforcement expense. I hsve no doubt that the present tax payer, staggering under his unman ageable load, will welcome the repeal of the 18th amendment and the sub sequent relief from his tax burdens." Turning to an angle of the repeal argument that had not already been covered, E. C. Kelly, candidate and member of the state legislature, de clared: CRnnot Legislate Morals. "Morals cannot be legislated. Pro hibition ha proven that. The pres ent lsw has not only NOT promoted temperance, but has produced the most shocking crime situation ever known In any country on any age. Profit from the Illegal sale of liquor have financed criminals and whole sale law violation. They have made the criminal a dictatorial power, with machine guns, expensive automobiles and airplanes at his command. "Prohibition has weakened the moral tone of the country by wink ing at political hypocrisy to such an extent that the majority of the law makers drink wet and vote dry. This sordid condition. In addition to the other aspect of the situation, has. I believe, so sickened the average citizen that he will be more than anx ious to emphatically register his vote against the 'ignoble' experiment in the July election." 1 Leaves Hospital A.

ATTAINMENT by Fred Alton Haight Of life's attainments, I would do Two things, and do them well; So well, that I should not have lived In vain before my knell: I want to write one lovely poem And sing; one melody, To link my name with lasting fame And immortality. The wealth of nations may decline And statesmen be forgot'; The timbers of the works of men May fall away and rot; But with the stars that light the sky Shining eternally, The world would ever read my poem And sing my melody. Yet, I could nothing will to men That I possessed as only mine ; The poem were said, the song were sung Ere me by poet and choir Divine.
