Raymond

Ilefore an audience that comfortably
filled the Grand, the much-heralded
Great Raymond made his Initial bow
to locul theatre-goers.
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

He "manufactures" enough chocolate

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.

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

and towns, and also most Important Is
that their boys and girls are at home

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.

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,
