= :
\ Last Saturday Willamette Grange
which is the oldest Grange in
Benton county, and one of the old
est in the world, took the ssinitia-
tive in educational matters. It
was this way. The Grange had
invited School Superintendent Den
man to hold a parents meeting in
conjunction with the Grange, and
although the weather was 1nclem-
ent, there was large attendance
and the interest enthusiastic from
start to finish. s =lt
Prot. J B Horner of fOAC, pointed
that the public school was a minia.

reaching effects the public school
rs the great American university
for the education of intelligent vo-
ters and is absolutely indispensable
in the reconstruction of the foreign
element that is rapidly becoming a
part ofthe governing classes in
many localities of this country. It
is fitting therefore the substantial
element of Our government, the
land holders to see to it that our
educational requirements be the
highest in the world.
Supt Denman gave it as his OPP
inion that free discussion of edu-
cational matters would also i'm
prove the condition of the homes,
which in themselves are schools, 1
where the greater part of~your
enduring education may he had.
He urged for hearty cooperation
of the farming classes with our
schools, for it would benefit both
the schools and the people inter-
ested in them.
In well prepared paper Mrs
Mary III Whitby, master of the
Grange, suggested that
she would like to visit the earth |
fifty years hence to see how Our
children will teach their children.
The home should be the finest
place in the communicative school

er is teacher. She hopes for the
time when the public schools will
be taught exclusively by women,

Last Half Played Entirely in Uni.

Were There, -s~--.-


the most scientific gamesever play
ed on: OACzfe1d was the struggle
between the OAC and University
of Oregon elevens last Saturday
In the first half, honors were fairly
even, though in the early minutes
of play the advantage was with
the visitors. They took the bal
from iOAC's kickoff. on their sc
yard line, and the co11egians were
apparently unable to hold them un-
til the University men had pushed
the pigskin to thessC colleges 40 yard
fiue, covering distance of SC
yards without a stop. While the
moveme Mt was in progress, it seem
ed certain that the University was
headed for touchdown, and Col
lege sympathizers held their
breath. ...Es~
On the College 40 yard line,
however, the University fumbled,
and with the bali once in their pos
session, the Collegians seemed for
the first tire to realize that the
play was on in earnest. They began
at once to hammer Eugene's line,
and throughout the rest of, not
only the half but the whole game,
the advantage was with the College
men. They drove the visitors
steadily back, with occasional ex-
changes of the ball until Eugene's S
IS yard line was reached. There
the University got the ball and af-
ter twice trying the line for losses,
punted. The half was rapidly
closing, and in an interchange of
punts, the visitors gradually made
their way to near the middle Of the
field where time was called with
the ball in Eugene's territory.
In the second half all the advan-
tage was with the Collegians 1t
took but two or three minutes to
carry the bail out of their own ter
ritory after Eugene's kickoff, and
from that time on until the game
ended the ball was in the Univer-
sity's territory, and chief1y,between1
her 40 and yard lines. All that
stood between the College and a
touchdown at one time was failure
to gain less than a yard of
ground. 1t happened this way.
The college was on Eugene's seven
yard line, On, the first. down one
yard were made. In the next;
three yards was made by Root
through Eugene's line, but in the
swaying and pushing that occurred
after making his gain, he was
pushed outside the side lines and
called back to the starting place.
That left four CARDS to gain with
but one down in which to make it. |
In the plunge that followed, Root
lacked less than yard of making
the four yards. At the moment,
the ball was on the University's
two yard line, and but for the loss
of the down in the trip over the
sldelines, the yardage would have
been more then made, and touch
down have certainly resulted.
After thus securing the ball,
Templeton punted. out of the crit
lcal position, but within few
minutes, the Collegians, had the
ball back on the University's 10
yard line. There again they lost
The ball, and Templeton again
punted out Of danger. The play
ended with the ball in the hands
IF the Collegians on the Univer-I
sity's IS yard line.
As they lined up Saturday. there
9 no doubt that the college team
played the better ball. Apologists
