THAT HIGH SCHOOL
MEETING SATURDAY

BY Roswell Shelley.
Odell, East Hood River Valley, Jan.
81. -Supt. Alderman told us that
the meeting last Saturday for the CON
sideration Of the matter of a high
schooEfor Hood River valley was the
most enthusiastic meeting of the kind
he had ever attended. We are very
glad to note this fact and the further
fact that we consider this move for
the consolidation of the valley dis
tricts into one large district by far
the most important as touching the
material welfare and future develop
ment of the valley that has ever been
considered by the combined intelli-
gence of town and country. After
hearing the clear cut statements Of
Mr.. Alderman, who is man of large
experience and who is in possession
Of facts as to the ultimate results that
are sure to accrue from this consoll-
dation movement. We are convinced
that the one district proposition is the
one that should ,be adopted, and. liv-
ing in the country as does the writer,
claim the. privilege Of saying that il
there be aaspirit of Jealousy in the
outlying districts that would for one
moment check the progress Of this gi-
gantic movement for the ultimate ben
eft of the valley by urging the slight.
est objection to the location of this
high school building at or near town,
we hope they will forever Danish it,
for the reason that the town district
will furnish large part of the prop
erty upon whicHa tax will be laid for
the erection Of the school building
and following up this thought the
town district would also furnish an
army Of pupils as compared with any
single distict In the country. So
that In figuring upon the transporta-
tion question it would prove much
less expensive 1s n placing pupils at |. the
important feature is that II Prof. Ack-
erman's statement be true that high
school under proper management
would stimulate and strengthen the
lower grades in an effort TO prepare
for the high school course there is no
good reason why our pride In the
country school shonld be weakened.
On the other hand we think that 1t
would be strengthened and that our
school work in the country would
improve. Let us get away from this
false theory of antagonism between
town and country, and imbibe the
now popular idea Of growing big to-
gether. As we understand the Law
governing the consolidation of dis.
tricts it requires the matter to be set.
tied by q. vote of all the, districts at
the annual meeting which is in June.
This being the case, an educational
campaign should begin at once, and
yet, come to think of it, when we re-
member that IL this matter goes
through along the lines indicated at
Saturdays meeting, tho consolida-
tion of the districts carries with it
the transportation Of pupils to the
door of the building who live outside
the two mile limit. The expense Is
to be assessed to the consolidated

FROM THE ENTERPRISE.

"A railroad meeting was held In
Lauterbach's hall Saturday afternoon
to see what the citizens of White Sal
mon would do with the proposed cleo
trio line to Trout Lake. After thor
ough discussion Of the matter it was
agreed to start subscription paper
and see.how much of donation could
be gotten up to induce the railroad to
build from this point. Those in tine
hall signed the paper to the amount of
S3, 500 and enough more was known
to be willing to give that the sum was
brought up to S4, 750, so that the com
mittee felt sure that they could guar
antee the company bonus of $5, 600
to build the road. The company has
never told White Salmon what they
expected it to do in the matter, but
on the other hand wanted to know
what the town was willing to do and
this is the answer they get from US.
If built the line will commence at the
dock and cross the railroad near where
the Cook road crosses it, then follow
up the bluff to near the Jewet home,
where it will reach the top of the bluff
when it will swing around and come
up town either on Jewett or Wyers
avenue, until it reaches Maine street.
At Maine street it will branch, one
line going to the Hotel Washington
where it will end, and the other keep
ing straight ahead through the Lau
terbsch place until it reaches Cook q
addition when it will swing around
and go to Husum and Trout Lake.
This is the plan as near as it can be
foretold at the present writing, but
it may be cha ged considerably when
the surveys are made. The company
proposes to commence operations in
the spring and build out as far as
Husum this year and complete the
road next year. The bonus Is not
due until the road is completed
which will probably be two years
hence, SO that property owners who
have subscribed will have plenty of
time to make the money out of the
rise in values before they will be
called upon to pay.
The school meeting held Saturday
to vote bonds to bull an addition of
two rooms to the school house was
carried almost unanimously, there
being but three votes against the
proposition. This means that we will
have two more rooms added to the
building and one more teacher next
year, and that high school will be
installed gradually. That is, the
ninth grade will be added next year,
the tenth the next and so ON until
be have a full fiedged high school.
There are at present abou 100 pupils
in the two rooms and next year the
number will be considerably enlarged
even without the high school, but
with that established we will have all
that the teachers can handle.
Mrs. L. NJ. Weisner, who has been
visiting at the Jewett home for the
past two weeks, returned to heI home
in Portland on Sunday, Mrs. Jewett
accompanying her.

SUNDAY The H
DAY Of REST


But even rest frequently be
comes tiresome. You know
this is so. You lie in bed, be-
cause you can do so until
you are almost too tired to
get up. Eat a late breakfast
and sit around the house un-
til you are SO tired that you
think you will go to church
and on returning you get
your morning paper.
This is a diversion for q
while, but after a time you
commence to paw the sheets
over and yawn. You are
tired reading the paper SO
you commence to salnter
about the house with your
hands in your pockets and
perhaps for sheer want of
something to doyou kick the
dog a couple of times. By
this time crest" has got on
your nerve to such an extent
that you feel that you must
take a walk.
1t is now near dusk and af-
ter you walk about for a
while aimlessly you start for
home tired ofeverything. AS
you come around by. the de-
pot you see a large white
building lit up with electric
lights and you hear the
strains of good music and on
looking up you see in gilt
letters
MT. HOOD HOTEL
Going inside you find every
thingcheerful and bright and
in order to hear the music
better you 60 into the dining
room and are seated at a
table. By this timeyou have
forgotten that you are tired.
You orderyour dinner. You
listen to the music. You
gaze around the pretty din
ing room meeting the glances
from animated faces and
sparkling and you are at
last rested. Itdoesyou good.
You contemplate the routine
