Mondays Oregonian reprints the
OBSERVERS item concerning the scar
city Of school teachers in Polk County,
and heads it, 'In the Shadow Of Mon
mouth" That's the difficulty, exactly.
The demand for Normal graduates,
and especially those Of the Monmouth
school, is so great that the supply is
always short at home. The counties
in which the Normal schools are
located fare even worse than others, as
there is steady demand in all parts
Of the state for trained teachers, and
there are never enough Of these gradu-
ates to I'LL all Of the positions. Not
withstanding the steady opposition to
Normal schools, the fact remains that
the country school boards are always
ready and anxious to pay the Normal
graduates from SIS to $40 a month
more than they will offer the teachers
who have not had this special train
ing. The farmer school boards are
not fooled by the clumor against the
Normals; they know when they are
getting the desired results in their
schools, and they also know where
they must go to get the teachers to
accomplish these results. The strong
est argument in favor of Normal
schools is found in the steadily grow
ing demand for teachers who have
had the advantage Of Normal
training.

Brisk Morning Fire.

The woodshed 10 the rear OF the
stores in the Collins building, at the
corner Of Main and Court streets,
caught fire about l 80 o'clock SUNDAY
morning, and a destructive contlagra-
ton was prevented only by the prompt
and efficient work of the fire depart
ment. Wes Atchison and Roy Sparks
saw the fire as they we're going home
and gave the alarm. The iremen were
on the scene in a few minutes and
easily subdued the flames before they
had spread to any of the surrounding
buildings. The loss was practically
nothing, but had the fire not been dis
covered in its incipiency, serious dam
age might have resulted. Dallas
needs night watchman.

Sessions.

There will be both afternoon and
evening sessions at the Colosseum
Rink this week, on Tuesday, Thursday
and Saturday, and Bartlett's orches-
ira will be in attendance at all even

excellent work, and every number of

find the price Of an admission ticket
we'll spent for the opportunity of list
ening to the music alone.
Tuesday night will henceforth be
ladies night at the rink. All ladies
will be given free admission at that
time, and special music will be
furnished by the orchestra.

Mrs. Emmons, were the invited guests
During the day, many friends
called to pay their respects TO

burdens Of four score and ten years
upon her shoulders.

The increased building activity of
the past two months is by no means
confined to the towns. The number Of
new houses being erected on farms in
Polk county is truly astonishing, and
gives one a better idea Of the enormous
increase of immigration during the
past year than Il whole volume of
statistics and figures could furnish.

HIS SECOND CHILDHOOD.

II is both pitiRuI and disgusting to
read the chronic walls OF u few small
and inconsequential newspapers
against the Oregon Press As8oclatlon'
when publishers who are doing more
business in a week than these little
neewees do in a month are spending
their time and money in an effort to
build up strong and active organl-
cation. The latest yawper is OLD man
Bennett, whose Rabbitville letters
brought him more or less proml-
nence before he wrote himself out and
became silly. He has been one OF the
sulkers for the last two years, and now
unburdens himself in two-column
article, telling why he does not intend
to have anything more to do with the
association. 1t appears from MS
statement that he was candidate for
re-appointment to a place on the
Executive Committee at the Portland
meeting, but that the new president,
J. @. Hayter, failed to recognize his
ability and named some one else.
Right then and there he lost all faith
in the future of the association, and
decided to have nothing more to do
with it.
Having got this out Of him, the old
gentleman will doubtless feel better,
as it has probably never occurred to
him that 80 out Of 100 publishers in
the state don't care whoop whether
he comes into the association, or stays
out. Editor Brownhill, Of the Gresham
Herald, states the situation very neatly
when he says; "Whenever an editor
gets 50 old and childish that he pub
licly AYERS that he won't do anything
toward building up a state press asso-
citation because he was not honored as
he felt he should have been by a few
members of the association, he Virtu
ally admits that he is in his dotage,
hence is more deserving Of pity than
contempt at the hands Of the publish
ers Of the state"

Died While Visiting Sister.

Mrs. Olivia ScoviIIe, Of Seattle, died
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. H. G.
Dimick, Sunday night, after an i'll
ness Of two weeks duration. Mrs.
Scoville was a sister of Mrs. Dimick,
and was paying her long visit after
a separation Of nearly 40 years. The
immediate cause of her death was
pneumonia, brought on by cancerous
growth penetrating her lungs. The
funeral was held from the residence
of Mr.. and Mrs. Dimick at 2 o'clock
this afternoon.

The OBSERVER believes that the
wisest solution of the light and telo-
phone wire problem in the business
district would be to put the wires in
the alleys, or under ground. With
all wires under ground, the appear
ance Of the business blocks would be
greatly improved, and it is believed
that this system would prove more
economical to the light and telephone
companies in the long run than the
present expensive overhead system.

MT. Reuben G. Dye, of the State Land Commissioners office, Little Rock, came over Wednesday evening on business and to visit his mother and other relatives, and mingle with his legion of friends. We acknoWl- edge brief call which we highly ap- preciate, as he iS one of our really good friends and most genial gentle man. Rabe k looking and doing well and We were very glad indeed to see him, and wish him the best there iS of the future $ good faEors.
 The newly married couple Mr. and Mrs. Joe Straebler. entertained few inn ediate friends at dinner Sunday at their country home. the old Carr place. Among those present from the city were MT. L. R. Grobmyer. wife and daughter, Annie Mai. Mrs E. Boyle. Mrs. Arthur Boyle and daugh- ter, Miss Mary; 'Ohm lornCy MT. and Mrs. <. r. McDaniel and q few country neighbors, all of whom enjoyed the many good things 10 eat and the hos 1 pitable treatment of their host and i hostess, and their brother. Henry. Miss Lige and Joe are as happy as can be.
 The Fourth of July was very quiet and uneyentful in Forrest City. A 1 few of the stores closed, giving the salesmen an opportunity to celebrate, which they did by going fishing, rid l ing, sleeping. resting, etc. The Cald- well Camp of Woodmen had basket picnic and barbecue at the Hughes cemetery, which was most pleasant affair, and quite a number of Forrest 1 City folk attended that and enjoyed 1 the occasion immensely A few can i non crackers were exploded on the night of the 3rd. and few small flags were displayed about town, and thus passed the Galorious Fourth.
 Our genial friend, Mr Dan WyldS, of Franks township, was mingling with his large circle of friends i'll 1 town Wednesday. Dan is always most entertaining and rarely ever l lags in a conversation, and has store 1 of good stories appropriate to any oc- easi0n. "Wednesday was no exception to the rule, but on this occasion he | came forward with q marvellous tale and vOuches for it's truthfulness. and his word being as good as his bond, We have no reason to doubt 1t. He in- formed us that he discovered his ia vorite cat few days ago in his smoke house where she had a snug nest and in which she had evidently given
