A large crowd Of livestock breeders

ley will be in Salem, Saturday, to
attend the horse show which will be
one of the best ever held in the state.
Great care has been taken in arrang
ing the premium lists, that they may
cover the widest possible field and
offer the best opportunities to horse
men. Among the prizes are a num-
Der offine silver cups, special trophies
etc, which will be highly valued by
those who are so fortunate as to win
them. The show is not intended by
its promoters to be a profit making
but its interest is to pro-

more of them; to establish a market
for the product and to assist the pro-
iucer in commercial manner.

that the Evangelical Association
should be represented on the board of
regents. Fraternal delegates will
attend the conference from the Evan
gelical Association and United
Brethren conferences. The proposed
union, If effected, will mean much for

10 a communication from the
student body ofthe Monmouth Normal,
published elsewhere in this issue of
the Observer, we have another view of
the vexed normal school question. 1t
is the view taken by students, who,
after they are we'll along toward the
achievementof their aim-the acquire
ment Of an education which will fit
them for effective work as a teacher
suddenly find the means by which
they hoped TO acquire that education
threatened with dissolution and their
two or three years work on the verge
of suddenly coming to naught. Small
wonder that young people who find
themselves facing a crisis Of this
nature, rally with one accord to the
support OF the institution on the exist
ence OF which depends their ability to
complete the work that they have
out for themselves.
