Prof. Swan, by hi« organization of
the county High school, and hy his
work for ita development, has demon­
strated to the people of the county that
he is such a man.
A patron of the
high school recently remarked. “I think
the county high school is the best con­
ducted school I have ever «ent my child
ren to." President. Campbell of the
University of Oregon and State Supin
tendent Ackerman have often stated
that they consider thia one of the best
schools in the state. Dr. Sheld n, hc»d
of th» department of education of the
University of Oregon says. •Prof,
Swan is, in my opinion, one of the
ablest and most efficient high school
men in the state and could always lie de­
pended on to do satisfactory work, both
in the way of organizing a school effec­
tively and in his own teaching.

this office who has shown himself the

for the past sixteen years there has

This is a record equalled by few places
in ttie state, or any other state, In lour-
teen years the weather lias gone lielow

more than six degrees below but once

The highest Summer temperature in

The statistics for the entire period show,
