Salem Has 3,379 Pupils Attending Schools At the closing of the Bchool year, .'1,479 pupils are in attendance nt the public scIiooIh, according to the report of Superintendent O. M.

In the primary schools, ages between sii and nine years, the number is equal, 378 boys and the same girls. Between the ages of nine and 12, the girls arc 21 in the majority. Be tween the ages of 12 and 14, once again the boys and girls are equal in num ber, 273 for each. Between the ages of 14 and 20, the girls forge ahead, numbering 527 to S04 for the boys. Over 20 years of age, thero are 20 boys and 12 girls. During the month. 343 parents visit ed the achool which seem, to indicate that the parents take a rather more ac tive interest as the achool year ii clos ing. The senior class of this yenr num bers 109 while the senior class of next year will be much larger. The graduat ing clnssoi have been becoming larg er each year and hereafter, part of the class will be graduated at the elose of the first semester. Utter Stagnation Was Main Feature of Market New York, May 29. The New York Evening Hun's financial review today snwi: I Falling between Sunday and Decora jtion day, today's market was barely i more thnn nominal. The attendance )wa very small. After a liiiht first hour characterized by irregular and in consequential changes, trading lapsed into utter stagnation. In such a market it was idle to look for an impelling influence in the news. President Wil son's Saturday night speech and James dainty m before June la tt the carton (the pan .'-Ul.. i mini' J. Hill's death did not 'figure as a fiic tor, althouyh Northern 1'ncit'ic cased a fraction while Great Northern was firm. Priees were a shade stronger in the late trailing but so dull was the movement that it was devoid of significance. All owners of automobiles who feel patriotic enough to offer their cars for a short time tomorrow morning to take the O. A. R. veterans to the cemetery, are requested to be on hand nt the armory by 9 o'clock. It is hoped that a sufficient number of enrs will be of fered in order that all the old soldiers may be taken to the cemetery in time for the ceremonies. i in Out of respect for the G. A. R. and believing in advancing the cause of Patriotism in every possible way, Our Store will be Closed all day Memorial Day. Our Going Out of Business Sale will be in full force on Wednesday morning Hammond-Bishop Co. "The Toggery" 167 N. Commercial Street 'LEAGUE LEADERS 10 BATTLE FOR HONORS SALEM CHAUTAUQUA iim lEnniicnDniiMnci Ull LLnUUL UUUUrtLIJ Salem asd Battling Bradfords Clash Tomorrow Duubls Header Salem must win tomorrow's giiinc with the Battling Bradford's to lead the league with a percentage of .liiiii and even at that the Bradford's will share the leadership with the same per centage as the Bradford bavc won six and lost two while Hulein with its in herited twin losses from (Iresliam is credited with five wins and three losses. If Salem wallops the Bradfords each will lie credited on the official records with six wins and three games lost. Should the Bradfords- win, how ever, and stranger things have happen ed they will be entitled to bad the league with a percentage of .777 while Salem must be contented to drop behind Woodburn with a percentage of 555. All of which goes to show that Sa lem has 'something at stako tomorrow and that the game will be a battle royal from start to finish unless the weather man turns his attention to-the sprinkling business. Yesterday's crowd was the largest of the season but Sn lein fans show a disposition to "wait 'till the clouds roll by" ami if the bright sunshine had happened along an hour earlier yesterday the grand stand and bleachers would have shown many new faces. The fans are assured tomorrow that they will be the spec tators at a real bail game regardless of a murky sky and a good crowd is prom ised for tho contest between the league leaders. Cole, the Stnyton twirler, has been making a rocord for himself about the valley and yesterday pitched a two-hit gime. He is anxious to show the .Si lem people that he can deliver the goods and probably will be the mainstay in the box during the remainder of the season. The signing of Durham by tho Vancouver league team will give Cole his chance, with Salem and the clever young twirler will be seen, in action to morrow. Salem high school and Newbeig will play a preliminary game nt 1 o'clock and the main event will start immedi ately after tho high school gume at about. 3 o'clock. Both games will be for the price of one admission. DIED MOYER At his home, 593 South Com mercial street, May 27, 191(i, J. S. ' Muyer. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. I.eah Moyer, a son, H. H.
