THREE
State Schools and Some
Statistics About Them
The official directory recently issued
by Superintendent of Public Instruc
tion, J. A. Churchill, bIiows thnt there
are about 300 schools In the stuto which
offer work above the eighth grade, ns
follows: 44 offer one your of Bocond
ary work; 65 offer two years; 20 offer
three years, and lti! offer four years
of high school work. Approximately
1100 teachers uro employed in the sec
ondary schools, about 70 per cent of
whom are graduates of colleges or uni
versities, while many more are gradu
ates of technical or normal schools.
Colleges and universities from every
section of the Unitea States and from
Europe are represented umong the
high school teaching rorce of the stnte;
but by far the largest number of grad
uates of any single institution come
from the University of Oregon, there
being about 185 graduates of that in
stitution teaching in the high schools
of the state. A very largo percent
age of the tenchers of the vocational
high school subjects are supplied by the
Oregon Agricultural College.
In Training to Teach
There are now over 000 students in
the high schools of the state who ex
pect to teach in tho elementary schools
next year without being required to
pass the state examinations. The girls
number 831 and tho boys 82. These
students are taking the Teachers'
Training Course, which is given in the
fourth year of most of the larger high
schools. They are required to tako at
least three years of work in English be
yond the eighth grrnvs and to make a
thorough review of arithmetic, gram
mar, American history and civics. They
are also required to complete a course
in methods of teaching, which includes
the study of a number of books on ed
ucation, a study of the Oregon School
Laws, school blanks, etc. According

(Capital Journal Special. Service.)
Monmouth, Or., Jan. 3. Monmouth
had her first snow last Monday which
melted almost as fast as it fell but on
Friday afternoon as the ground was
frozen and it was considerably colder
it began to snow in earnest and sure
enough on the dawn of tho new year
about six inches of fine dry snow lay
on the ground.
Many sleighing parties liavo been
taking advantage of the fine sleighing
in this vicinity since the snow and tho
tinkling of sleigh bells is a common
sound.
The Monmouth Athletic club's bas
ketball team met the quintet of the
Independence Athletic club in a match
game in the high school gymnasium
here Saturday evening. The homo boys
were victors over tiie visitors by a
score of 17 to 19. A return gnmo will
be played soon.
Tho members of the Christian and
Evangelical churches of this city had
a watch party in the Christian church
on New Years eve. There was a large
crowd present in spite of the rough
weather and all were well pleased with
the program which consisted of three
sermons, musical selections and light
refreshments during the intermission.
With the coming of tho new yenr
which hnppens to bo "leap yenr"
many "Leap Year" parties have been
reported and the girls are "gaino"
enough to play their part. Ono mar
riage has already been reported.
The vacation days are now over.
Monmouth normal and high school will
convene for several more weeks begin
ning today, January 3.
Tho new training school of the Ore
gan normal school here is now rapidly
ncaring completion and unless some
thing unexpected happens the building
will bo ready lor occupancy Dy ieimi
ary or tho beginning of the second
semester.
The Monmouth grange had an all
day'B good time Saturday, January 1.
A large crowd consisting of about 125
members and fnmilies were present in
spito of the snow and cold weather. A
good program was rendered and soveral
interesting talks by tho different mem
bers of the organization on subjects of
general public interest.
Tho I. O. O. F. lodge will hold its an
nual installation of officers Monday
evening. Tho officers elected for the
coming year arc: Mr, John Scott,
noble grand; J. V. Webber, vico grand;
Paul Tachoron, secretary; J. W. Loaak,

Coon hunters in this vicinity are re
juicing over tiie recent snowfall on ac
count of tho advantage of snow in
tracking these, shv animals to thoir
trees. Previous to this winter many or
tho ring-tailed creatures have been
captured by hunters in tho woods of
the surrounding country.
Mr. Dave Dove, a largo landowner
in this territory, is not naviug any
wood cut this vear. Mr. Dovo usually
has about a thousand cords of number
one onk wood cut every year but the
winter of 1915-finds him with
about half of his Inst year's cutting
yet on bis hands. Many wood lot own
erg aro in the same predicament as
Mr. Dove and are consequently not
having any more wood cut this wintor
which throws a good many men out of

which is required during tho Inst year
of tho high school course. Each of the
prospective teachers is required to
spend one year in observation and
teaching practice, 15 weeks of which 40
minutes each dny must be actuul teach
ing prnctico under the direction of the
regular teachers. Every student who
completes the course successfully will
be given n one-year state certificate,
which may be renewed once if the hold

is being given in SS of the standard
high schools of tho stnte.
Boys Are a "Guess"
"It is impossible to tell what lines
of work our school boys will pursue
when they grow up; but it is pretty
safe to predict thnt most of tho p
will become housekeepers", said Super
intendent of Public Instruction J. A.
Churchill, in speaking of the vocational
courses being offered in the liiRli
schools. Mr. Churchill continued by
saying that 7194 girls are now learn
ing cooking and sewing in tho public
schools of the Btate. Of this number,
3S40 are in the high schools and 3354
are in the grades. If one may judge by
the number of students enrolled in the
two courses, cooking is not quito so
popular as sewing, there being 321''
girls taking Domestic Bcicnec, and 3980
taking Domestic Art. The total value
of tho equipment for teaching the for
mer course, consisting of stoves, cook
ing utensils, dishes, etc.,' amounts to
$24,916.00, while the equipment for the
latter, including sewing .machines,,
tables, etc., amounts to $14,950.00.
nonrly all of the teachers employed in
these courses arc graduates of the Ore
gon Agricultural College. : Mr. Church

Oregon Onions Are
Reported Sold to

Portlnnd, Ore., Jan. 3. While the
Confederated Onion Growers' associa
tion is still naming $1.25 per cental f.
o. b. country points for No. 1 onions,
it is reported tliut $1.50 bus lieen paid
a Bcavcrton grower for a liberal sup
ply. Tho purchase is said to have been
made for enstern shipment, Coyne
Bros., of Chicago, being the allot""
buyers. If this is true it means that
the big movement of Oregon ouions
expected to go to the eust hafl already
started.
President Fnnno, of the Confederated
Onion Growers' association, states th'
he has no knowledge of tho 1.50 sale
but does not consider it improbable.
"There is every likelihood that onions
will go to $3 a cental in the east this
season," he says, "and this will enable
our growers to sell at libcrnl profits
and advances over present prevailing
prices."

THE FARMER'S FRIEND
HUNTERS OVERRUN
OFFICEJF CLERK
Scalps Held Over From Last
Year AD Appear at Once
for Bounty
The grand gopher scalp rush began
with a vengeance upon the county
clerk's office at 7 o'clock this morning
and although the office opened an hour
earlier than usual there were large
numbers of gopher and mole hunters on
hand. As the hour grew later the
crowd thickened and every train that
pulled into Salem this morning with lo
cal passengers carried its full quota of
gopher and mole skins. Soon the crowd
rilled up every niche of space in the
clerk's office and it was necessary to
form them into line and put a guurd ut
tho door to keep them from breaking
into the line. Outside the door iu the
corridor it was ammed full and when
tho circuit court in department No. 1
wished to open for tho January term it
was necessary to call the sheriff to
clear a gangway through the crowd in
order that Judge Kelly and the jury
men might reach the court room.
During tho first hour that the office
was open -,057 skins wero taken in and
half an hour later a total of 3.949 had
been cheeked in at 11 o'clock 9,930
scalps had been counted and warrants
drawn for the "varmint" killers.
. Today was also registration day un
der the new system of permanent regis
tration but if any voters called t
morning they, did not hove the nerve
to declare their intention to fight their
way through the crowd. The regular
business of the county clerk's office
war transacted in a narrow space that
was kept open to the desk. - '
The reason for the unpreeemiented
rush today was that when the bounty
fund of last year was exhausted the
holders of scalps were told to wait until
the 1916 fund was available and the
hunters still pursued the gophers and
moles. If there aro any of tho rodents
loft in Marion county now they are
keeping well under cover. .
The largest sum paid out today to one
single gopher hunter was to Claud
Harris, who resides on South Thirteenth
street in this city. Harris brought in
the scalps of 1,439 gopherB and 17 moles
and received a check for $145.00. . Hi
killed all of the animals on the lands
of L. H. McMahan, Lafe Townsend aud
German Bros. Several others brought
in catches of from 750 to 1,000 and at 2
o'clock this afternoon 17.237 scalps hp
been cashed. It is expected that near
ly 25,000 sculps will be checked in be
fore tho office is closed tonight.
