Directors Holt, Lafky, Miles and Moored were present. Mr. Lafky made an Informal re port on the course of study for the next two years. The committee had spent three hours Saturday night with City Superintendent Pow e.rs. Mr. Lafky wanted to see agri ! culture substituted somewhat for j textbook botany. Fruits, grains and I grasses for boys, and fruits and flow- ers fo rgirls was decidedly, better than . classical matters. Mr. Powers said the proposed I course of study did not differ from ! the course In the past, except as to Industrial education and the exten sion of manual training, domestic science and drawing. Mr. Fargo spoke or tho unduo prominence given language work, over science and 'history. Thorough ness In natural science was more Important thaiv language. Eight cred its In language, one in science and tlireo of mathematics for a high Rcnooi course was not wen uuianceo. iiiiigiisu was oiuy u iiihuiih iu gum nur knowledge. But it was not so Im portant as the laws of life and tho history of humanity. The second rea son why sciences have not been popu lar in high schools was because tho courses were on a full-fledged unlver sily basis. Without some knowledge i of tho natural sciences, tho student was not ready to take up Intelligent ly the study of physical geography. Mr. Miles said h was a believer In making the public schools as prac tical as possible. Only a small per cent ever got any' higher education, so-called. Mo would not try to make a university of tho common schools, but would simplify and make things practical in the high school. He would emphasize the Importance of domestic science, manual training and dairying, backed up with enough sci ences and languages to mako our boys and glrla practical citizens. Mako the courses flexible, said Mr. Miles, so ns to accommodate them to the best of the child'.-, mind. Me thought 12 years in the public school to merely prepare him for more years at college was weighing less and less In his mind, lie would leave the course of study to tho discretion of the city superintendent. Mr. Chairman Moores endorsed the remarks of Professor Fargo and Di rectors Lafky and Miles. He wanted moro practical preparation for life, and not for colleges. The three It's, backed up by plenty of sciences, his tory and industrial education, with language last, was his conception of the best school work. Supt. Powers said, In making a new course of study, ho would con sider mainly the fundamental things In the education of tho children. The present course. required four years of Latin, when only two years of Latin I or any foreign language wan required at the state university, and no for eign language at the Agricultural college. , ' He thought Salem should lead off In not requiring moro of a classical course than the higher institutions. Miles, Moores and Larky favored con futing the course, in foreign lan guages to two years. Leave it op. tional to those, who want to take four years. On motion the board decided to limit all foreign language courses to two years, and the city superintend ent was authorized to revise the I course of study to conform. The course of stuily will be re ported for final adoption at the reg ular meeting on Saturday night. LOCATED ON VACANT LAND NEAR ELECTRIC McMlnnvllle, Or., Sept. Good fortune has come to Lewis P. Small, a young cigar maker of this city, and be will soon move with his little family into a new cottage and by the required term of residence, prove his claim to a patent from the govern ment to a piece of valuable farm land that has been under cultivation for many years, but with the title re posing In the name of the United States. The man who tacitly owned the tract neglected the detail of se curing a title. Mr. Small received by mall today, from the ('. S. Land Ofllce at Port land, a tiling certlllcate to Homestead Kntry No. u:il!lfi, calling for Lot No. 1, In section 12, township (I, range 3, In response to a late application The tract comprises 1 1 acres valued at $2,5011. It lies eight, miles north of Salem, on the line of the Oregon Electric, and is one mile from Wuconda sta tion.
