Teachers Will Come.
terry.

The summer science school for teach
ers will open at the college on June Goth,
and will continue until August lst. TUT
ton will be free A large curriculum
of advanced studies will be offered, and
it is expected that the attendance will
be large.
SO long ago as the summer OF 1900 the
summer science school for teachers was
established at the college. Very success
full sessions were held during that and
the succeeding summer.
25 city and town superintendents We're
in attendance the first year, and the en-
rollment reached 1SS. Financial consd-
erations led to the omission of the school
during the succeeding years until the
present. The conviction, however, that
it was unwise policy on the part of the
state to have so large and expensive a
plant as that included in the laboratories,
Libraries, buildings, apparatus, etc, idle
for 25 per cent of the time, the further
consideration that the legal obligations
resting upon the college to train teachers,
especially teachers of science, and to
further in every way the application of
education to industrial pursuits, and
the knowledge of the fact that the only
opportunities of large numbers of teach
ers to secure such training is to be found
during their summer vacation, has led
to the determination to make this a per-
manent feature of the college and to
maintain the plant in operation at least
six weeks in eAery summer.
In addition to the regular work of the
summer school, for which no tuition will
be charged, school will be conducted
at Pullman, on private account by ex-
State Superintendent c. w. Bean, Coun-
ty Superintendent ShOwalter of
Whitman county and Principal Henry
of Paloase, for which asmall charge will
be made, and to which teachers may OBJ
tain instruction in certain lines.
The registrar, state college, Pullman,
Wash, will supply detailed information
on application.

YOUNG DISCLAIMERS
COMPETE FOR PRIZES
Series OF Contests in the Whitman
County Defamation
League.

The first of the series of contests
in the Whitman County Declama-
tion league was held in the Con-
gregational church last evening,
when six young people from the
public school competed for the de-
cision of the judges.
The contestants last night were
Cerena Cannon, Homer Foster,
Martha Hinchliff, Mary Chandler,
Flora Cline and Lucille Schultz,
first honorgoing to Cerena Gan
non and second to Homer Foster.
The judges were Rev. w. L. Powell,
Prof. Beach and Mrs. Fulmer.
Last nights contest was the pre-
liminary in series of like contests
now being held under the direction
of the county league, which was or
ganized by the schools of the coun-
ty. The preliminary contests were
held in each school district, open
to the pupils of that district, the
winners to compete in the semi
finals, to be held at eight principal
points in the county next week, the
eight winners of these to compete
for the grand honors at Colfax
later.
Pullman is one of the eight points
named for the second series of con-
tests, the winners of Cotton, Union
town, Johnson and neighboring
districts to compete here next week
as announced.
With the Defamation sleague,
the Debating league and the Bur
bank club, the public school pupils
of Whitman county certainly have
much to spur them on to better
effort, each in his special line, for
the pupil who is neither declaimer
or debater can get bid in for the
potato prize.

Washington, Nov. 3.-The president

When, nearly three centuries ago. the
first settlers came to the country
which has now become this great re-
public, they fronted not only hard

their lives. In those grim years the
custom grew of setting apart one day
in each year for a special service of
thanksgiving to the Almighty for pre-
serving the people through the chang
ing seasons. The custom has now be-
come national and hallowed by inn
memorial usage. We live in easier and
moro plentiful times than our fore
fathers. the men who with rugged
strength faced the rugged days; and
yet the dangers to national life are
quite as great now as at any previous
time in our history. 1t is eminently

thanksgiving tc the GiVer of good. and,
at the same time that they express
their thankfulness for the abundant
mercies received. should manfuIly ac-
knowledge their shortcomings and

good faith TO strive to overcome them.

blessed with bountiful crops. Our bus

level of material well-being as ours
now stands. We are not threatened by

MAY REQUIRE THE HARD CASH.
City Is Fixing Up q New Ordinance
About Plumbers Bonds.

City Engineer James AIoCabe proposes
to have an ordinance introduced into
the council providing that plumbers
must put UP a cash bond Of from s25 to
$50 with the city treasurer for making

stead Of the s25 paper bond which is
now being put up and the 81 permit.
By this change the city engineer hopes
to remedy The troubles which the city
has with the plumbers when they tear
up the pavements ana leave them only
half way repaired when through with

up the plumbers will be compelled
to forfeit their deposit # they fail
to make the repairs in the pavement
