H. Thatcher, superintendent of the Or egon Telephone & Telegraph Co. ,has received a telephone message from John S. Sabin, San Francisco, gen eral manager, instructing him to take immediate steps to furnish, with as little delay as possible, tele phone services to every town in Til lamook and Clatsop counties, con necting them with the company’s general Pacific coast system, Su- perintendent Thatcher will take im- mediate steps to carry out these itls structions by starting a force to make a preliminary survey of the line and advertising for bids for fur nishing the necessary poles. The line will probably run by way of For est Grove and North Yamhill to Ne halem, and thence up and down the coast to Astoria and Tillamook. The distance to be covered is about 125 miles, and, as this will require 6,000 poles, it will probably take about a month from the time the contract is let to get them on the ground, when the setting of poles and stringing of wire will be commenced at once, and the work pushed to completion as rapidly as possible. Owing to the mountainous country through which a large portion of the line will pass, the time of its completion will de pend to a great extent on the weather, but no effort will be spared to have it in working order as soon as possible. The local institute convened at Me- Minnville Oct 29th, in the Cook build ing, opening with singing. The subject of mental arithmetic was then intro duced by l’rof. Blough of Lafayette, fol lowed by discussions from different teachers. The subject of primary read ing was then presented by Mrs. Harris of Dayton, followed by remarks from Prof. Barzee. After recess a number of questions were asked Prof. Barzee con cerning primary reading, which he kind ly and favorably answered. The insti tute then adjourned for noon. At one o’clock the institute was called to order by Supt. Littlefield. After singing the Battle Hymn of the Republic, the follow ing subjects were discussed : Mias Beam is gave an interesting talk on oral physi ology. Prof. Snuffer’s paper on the qual ifications of the teachers brought forth a lively discussion, especially bn the lesser qualifications.
