Raymond proved the blggeBt sur prise of the present theatrical season. Nobody was prepared for what took place. After seeing the Raymond en tertainment we realize that we have never had any real magicians In our midst before. This dapper, clean-cut young chnp Is a showman of rare merit. He Is as witty as can "be and he continually smiles. That snillo Is a marvel. Amid costly drnplngs of plush decorated with gold bullion, Raymond presented the first two acts of his show. With out any preliminary talk he Binlllngly goes to work to form a pair of nap- I kins and two empty cut glass bowls He "manufactures" enough chocolate jbon bons to treat the entire loll- floor.

Roy Mans field won first prize of J5 for gents while John Earl got the second prize of $2.00. The prizes were awarded at S o'clock, at which time the mcrry- i makers unmasked. paper. To describe each trick of .Raymond's would require all the spaeo m the paper, but there are several of the most startling that should be mentioned. The "Throne of Mystery," In which girls exchanged places with boys in a most Inexplalnablo manner, the glass lined box, the pigeon catching, the silver cage and the box of nations are a few of the magician's best ef fects. The box of nations Is shown empty. .Trays containing ostumes of nil Ilia nnl!na n a ulnnn.l tlim-alti jThe nudlence decides upon a certain nation. In less than one second the rnchmica ami frnvo rllanmian, nml mi, jumps a young lady gowned Ml tne costume of the nation named by the audiences. "N'onh's Ark,'' a box-like boat, after having been shown to be empty, gave forth enough animals to stock a farm. Some 200 animals of all kinds were produced from the 'ark,' and at the finish two girls were materialized In the ark. Rayond's advance agents claimed that the mnglclan had over $.10,000 In vested In his bIiow. This statement was not exaggerated. The stage hang ings wero the most expensive ever seen here. They were beautiful be yond description. Raymond will offer a complete change of program tonight, and, if merit counts, the house should be packed. An Artistic Display. One of the most elaborate collec tions of arts ever Introduced to the Salem public is now on display In the east show window of Buren & Ham ilton's furniture establishment, on Court street. Included In the beauti ful and attractive array of paintings and sketchings placed in this popular firm's window are numerous pretty vases and chlnaware, which are con ceded to be the work of a real artist, and a work deserving the attention of th moBt critical. The works In this window are the results of the efforts of Margaret Gill, of Willamette university. A tract of 20,000 acres of the open yellow pine timber land In Lnke coun ty was sold last week to a Mllwau kle, Wis., lumber company for $400,-000. Lafferty says he has spent $150 In his campaign for re-election. THE RELENTLESS STEAM ROLLER AGAIN. I CONVENTION tMsmbwb afi ' 4 a .wtJ mm Bradley in Chicago New. The County High School Fund Law ' and It's Results nil'XTY SITERINTEXDEYI'S EX FRESH THEIR VIEWS WHICH ARE ALL FAVORABLE TO THE MEASl RE WHAT THEY SAY. Tho county high school fund law was upon the ballot at the general election -In Polk county November 1010, and was carried by a large ma jority. This law was placed In operation January 1, 1911 and has been growing In favor during the entire time of Its operation, January 1, 1911, we had In Polk county eight schools doing high school work, of which twp were four-year high schools, three were three-year high schools, two were two-year high schools, and one was doing one-year work. These schools had a total at tendance of about 100 pupils. Now we have 14 high schools doing work as follows: Three doing two years, three dclng three years, and eight doing the full four years of work, with a total attendance of 350 pupils. These schools are located In all sec tions of the county and nearly every child In the county can. reach some high school by riding not over Ave miles. In fact wo have many children In the rural high schools and some at tending the city high schools that aro riding from two to five miles. The coHt of maintaining these Bchools Is not heavy as tho money for the fund Is raised on all the property of the county and so makes the rate very light, we have only made a rato of one-half mill In this county. This money Is paid to schools main taining high schools as provided un der this act and such money must be paid to' teachers for salary and salary only. The average child completing the eighth grade Is from 12 to 14 years of age and Is much too young to send r.way from homo to attend school, un der this high school fund law the child will be able to attend high school nnd return home at night, Is under the home care nearly all the time. With out this high school fund law, high schools . cannot be maintained In enough sections of the county .to allow of this condition, without running a very heavy tax on the one district, which Is not necessary to tho people, and the result would be that the par ent, not wanting to have tho child at this tender age to leave home, will not send him or her to school for two or three years, by this time the child will have lost interest and will not care to attend. The creation of high schools In dif ferent sections of tho county not only gives tho children of all parts of tho county a chance to attend the high schools, but It also helps very much to build up that part of the county and Improves the community Interests and nil are benefited by t, or at least, that la the experience In this county, as we have several of those schools and all conditions In these sections and tho surrounding country are much Im proved and a better school spirit exists. The Interest In the secondary edu cation Is much bettor all over the county since creating the high school fund law, as this last year we had over 03 per cent of the eighth grade gradu ates of the former year In the high schools of the county. This letter has given the very best of satisfaction in all parts of the county and I have never heard on) objection to it Blnce It was passed, and I have asked many what they think of the law and all ore pleased with it and think It one of the best laws on tho books. Respectfully, H. C. SEYMOUR, School Supt. Polk Co., Or. Dallas, Or., Oct. 21, 1912. Hen. C. L. Ifimley Says Heneflt Far Exceeds SmiiiII Expense. The adoption of the county fund law for high schools In Polk county has been of vast benefit and encourage ment to the general welfare of educa tion in this county, particularly In the country or so-called rural districts. The general desire of the patrons of the country schools now Is to have within reach of their homes, in the home district If possible, or by consol idation with a neighboring district, a good public school giving the four Grand Opera House MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4 First Time Here (if the Original nml only Company rresontlnif THE WORLD'S GREATEST MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENT "The Chocolate Soldier" Music by Oscar Sfriius, Produced Willi the Full Strength of the ' WHITNEY OPERA CO.

Ninety-five per cent of our children recolvc their education only In the public school, hence the highest de velopment of our public schools would surely be the greatest good to the greatest number. While you cami.it expect something for nothing, yet the benefit derived from such a law, far exceeds the small expense. - As a farmer ail taxpayer, living on the farm on which I was born and raised at Bethel, in a country district with a modern public school building, four teachers and a full high school course, I would say to the voters of Marion county, for the love of your children nnd the welfare of your coun ty, vote for the county fund law for high schools. t-ti,A.ll,llJ AbsoluTelPure The only Baking Powder maderam Royal Grape Cream of Tartar Read the Label Alum Baking Powder will not maKe healthful rood Supt. II. C. lliiuirliniiin of Lane County Says the County Fund Lnw for High Schools Has Increased (lie Number of High Schools In (he Country. Concerning the working of tho fund low In this county, I have no state ment to make only tho most favorable. It has Burely dono big things here. The provisions of the law are that, certain requirements having been reached, high Bchools are allowed to draw, from tho fund for tho attend ance reported by the principal. There are now about twenty high schools In Lane county drawing from this fund. Nine of these arc union high schools In rural communities and a few are rural district high schools. These have nearly all been organized since the fund law was adopted, and I feel mire that the very great majority of them could not have been possible had not this fund been available. The effects of the fund are far-reiicliing. These have provided high school priv ileges for a large number of country boys nnd girls who aro enabled to at tend high school at home. High school attendance In Lane county lias be come a custom nnd thoso eighth grade giaduates who do not enter some high school in tho comity aro few In num ber. It is a success hero and Is hero to stay. Respectfully, 11. C. H AUG UMAX. Three More Cars for the Street Service Here Tho Portland, Eugono &. liastern railroad has Just received throe brand new car.-) for serv'ce on tho Salem system of this company. Those cars are of the type known as tho Califor nia combination, being arranged for the accommodation of twenty-four passengers In the closed portion and (lie same number on tho two open plat forms. These cars will be put Into service the first of next week, as It will require several days to clean them and get them In condition for tif rvlce. The company has decided to resiore tho old practice of allowing smokers certain privileges by adopting the for irer practice of allowing tho lust three seats for Indulgence In the weed. In ofher words smoking will be permitted on the rear platform. The cars jf Ki lein aro never so crowded but that women and children will lie able, to avoid sitting in the present of muck ers, f they so chose, and on this count smoking will be permitted. Tho cars are thoroughly modern In every respect. While not oqulppid vlth healing apparatus at tho time tl-cy arrived, this will be? added In a short time, or as soon as heal will he needed. The cars pro equipped v.l'li Westlnghouso air brakes, strong dou ble trucks and are 42 feet In loogth. The managers of the company In Jils city state that other curst of the mime or similar type will be ordered soon. As to which line iliey will lie Inst illed on they are not at liberty to say at this time. Renovating Shades.
