Crockatt, instruct or in English and Debate at the high school has resigned to accept a position as head of the department of r.nghsh and Literature in Spokane University. Professor Crockatt hopes to be able to secure a good substitute and one who will carry on the debate coaching. The position which Mr. Crockatt has accepted is a big step up and is considered quite an honor as he will be by far the youngest on the University laculty. Spokane Univer sity is a standardized state university offering the same courses as the Washington University and Washing ton State College. I1.50 PER YEAR. 11 to all persons supplying labor or material. On the 4th of March, 1915, a bond was filed with P. A. Sandberg, W. J. Logus, Ed. Worthington and E. D. Landingham as sureties on a bond for $15,000. Plaintiffs furnished the defendant Sandberg with gravel to the amount of $1075.00, $500.00 having been paid, and with other money owing John Nelson and Peter Nelson, sues for $825.18. At the budget meeting in Yamhill Cdunty, Judge Dodson stated that the court had been able to obtain but $9,000 from the state highway com- mj^sion njksion for this road, in considera- tii i<*t of the two counties raising $4,- ;oa, and that Tillamook County had id__ 1.. provided ____ _ 1_________ _ --- $7,500 already a levy c for which would not all be expended on this particular road. Mr. Hefty moved that the county appropriate $4,500 for this purpose. Dr. G. S. Wright stated there was reason to believe that the county could get $10,000 more from the state next year. W. T. Vinton amended the motion to make the amount $7,500, the same as Tillamook I he vote on the amendment was lost and the original motion was carried. On Saturday evening, January 15th, the wielders of firey words and weighty arguments, the debators of the Tillamook High School, will meet the Scappoose High School rep- resentatives in forensic battle, The local negative team composed of Del- mer Powers and Clifton Martin, will coach travel to Scappoose with Crockatt, while Lee Doty and Ernest Crockatt will defend the local ros trum. The question "Resolved: That the United States should adopt the essential features of the Swiss sys tem of military training and service,” is one of the big questions of the day and the local boys have worked for months until they feel that they have got to the bed rock on the subject Delmcr Powers the leader of the neg ative team is a convincing speaker and Clifton Martin wins his audience at the start with his witty way. I.e< Doty the first speaker on the affir mative has developed a fiery delivery that promises to burn up his oppon ents and Ernest Crockatt leader of the affirmative team has debated for three years in Pendleton High School under one of the best coaches in the state. Coach Crockatt is deserving of much credit for his work in develop ing the boys and it is an acknowledg ed fact that without a good coach no high school team can hope to succeed. To Form New Organization. A meeting was called on Wednes day evening at the Court House, to hear reports of the delegation that went to Portland to attend the meet ing of the Oregon Development League. The meeting was not attend ed by business men as it should have been, there being about 20 persons present. Messrs Claussen and Walls gave a brief account of what took place in Portland. Mayor Brodhead handed in some correspondence in regard to letter writing week, which was handed over to the newspaper men to publish. The matter of reorganizing was dis cussed and the chairman appointed Messrs. Robison, Callahan and Hen derson a committee to revise the by laws and make recommendations as to what is best to be done. The meeting adjourned until next Tuesday evening, at the Court House, writh the request that everybody make it a point to get the business men out that evening.

After a month’s intermission, the fourth number of the local lyceum course will be held on Saturday, Jan. 22nd. The program will be rendered by Mr .and Mrs. Glen Wells, enter- .ainers who are well known for their zersatility and cleaverness. Each of -hem is capable of giving an entire evening's entertainment alone. The committee which has the ly- c.eum course in charge has arranged a special rate of $¡.00 for the remaining three numbers of the course and it is expected that a better response will be given than heretofore. The re maining numbers include, besides the Wells Entertainers, the Old Town Quartette, a male organization, and Totten, a magician and illusionist. Thé quartett will be here early in February and Totten in March. Basket Ball. In a fast and exciting basket ball game at ’the opera house on Wednes- day night, the local high school team walloped the Alumni to the tune of 20-4. The game from whistle to whistle with excitement and many brilliant plays were executed, The most interesting of the game was when in three minutes of play the high school worked together for three field baskets, shot one right after the other by Ray Erickson, adding 6 points in short notice. The Alumni, although all good individual players failed to connect with the basket because of poor shooting and team work. Ray Erickson as usual was the high school star making four field baskets or 8 points. Crock- att in the second half niade 6 and Jones, Crimmins and Lucas each made two points in the half they played. The game clearly showed the super iority of the school boys and is much more decisive in score than the last game which was 16-14 in favor of the high school. The lineup was as follows. Alumni, Buel, center; Ebin- ger and Lamar, forwards; A. Boquist and F. Erickson guards. The high school, Edwards and Lucas, centers; R> Erickson, Jones and Crockatt, forwards; J. Erickson, Crimmins and Fletcher, guards. Foster referee and Sanders umpire. The high school basket ball team is getting a stiff workout this week preparetory tp the big games of the future by playing the Alumni on last Wednesday night and playing the Garibaldi team on Friday and the local town team on Saturday night. There is plenty of material out of which to pick a good team and Coach Sanders is continually switch ing the men in different positions. The local team is probably much better than the average school team of this state. _____ United Brethern Church. Sunday school, io a.m..

Proclamation Designating Letter Writing Week. o------ Whereas, it appears that much ben eficial publicity will result for Ore gon and all its communities by the writing of letters descriptive of our State to our acquaintances, friends, and relatives who have not the good fortune to dwell in Oregon; and Whereas, it is pointed out that the best results in such a letter writing campaign can best be obtained by organizing and setting aside for it a definite period; and Whereas, many organizations have already interested themselves in in- dividual efforts along this line; Now, therefore, I do hereby pro claim the week of January 17th to 22nd, 1916, as Oregon Letter Writing Week, and during that week it is de sired that the people of the organiza tions and communities of our state bend their energies to dispatching as many messages as possible to people in other states and countries descrip tive of the opportunities, resources, and attractions of Oregon; and I fur ther suggest that our newspapers, officials, school teachers, and com munity organizations will do well to give the purpose and plans of Oregon letter writing week recognition and their hearty co-operation, so that or ganized effort for intelligent and far reaching publicity for Oregon may be achieved. In testimony thereof, I have here unto set my hand and caused the great seal of the State of Oregon to he hereunto affixed this eighth day of January, 1916. James Withycombe, Governor. City Council.
