The transfer of the land took p&ce the latter part of last week, and the schools are now in pos session of 4n of the best tracts of land in this locality. A conservative esti mtSe.of the value of the property would be $1000 per acre. The White Salmon schools hava al ways had warm friends in Mr. and Mrs. Jewett. On several occasions they have demonstrated their interesO in school affairs by gifts ctoward the equipment of the buildings, and their donation of the land is extremely gen erous on their part, and an act for which they receive the thanks of every resident of this district. It is a gift whiQ few people would make, no mat ter how able they night be financially to do the same. The jnd is given for a building site ; and agricultural purpuses, and the school board will start an agricultural department next year, somethirff they 1 have long wishead to do but have been handicapped by not having the neces sary land. It was largely through the instru mentality of O. F. Glass, superinten dent of the local schools, that the fcd was secured to the district. He has worked hard for this donation, and it was largely through the confidence which Mr. and Mrs. Jewett have in his ability that th; gift wan made. It is not often that a district is so fortunate as to have a superintendent of the stamp of Prof. Glass, and neither is it often that schools have staunch friends. J it II I 1, 3 7 ;, ' illi pr.
