II is the practice In Oregon to post
pone the opening Of the public schools
until the hop harvest Is over, thus
serving the convenience Of the large
number Of families that work In the
hop felds. Since this policy Is pur-
sued, all parents should plan to have
their children ready for school when
the opening day arrives. Every child
who has not completed the eighth
grade should be In school this fall,
unless too young. Those who have
completed the eighth grade should
be In school unless there IL high

pectedly calling an extra session OF
the legislature to assemble In Indian
apolis September IL, in the midst nf
the presidential campaign.
Haniy's term expires the first of

reforms which he has not been able

candidate TO succeed Hanly. prom

carry out his plans u he would stump
the state for Watson. Hanly agreed
to this and II was announced that
he would not try further to enforce
his demand for reform legislation.
Later. the governor heard that
