TO Those Who
DO NOT help

We desire 10 give notice to all
whom it may concern that in
publishing the Register in Echo
we are giving full value for all
received-and then some. 1t is
true that we are not able TO give
as good a paper as some larger
cities can boast of, but without
saying anything that would look
like throwing lunches of posies
at ourselves we can aver that
the Register is further ahead of
Echo than some of the kickers
and knockers Of this sheet seem
to imagine. No newspaper in
town is a public charity; no pub.
Usher of a paper that stands up
for the town and advertises It's
advantages and resources can be
considered in any way as bur.
den or an ailliction on the com.
munity. If you want to knock
a town down in the estimation
OF property buyers and home
seekers, just drive newspapers
out of it. There are property
owners in this vicinity who hold
their land at big figures who
would see several figures knock
ed off their estimated fortunes
should the Register fold up it's
wings and things and depart
this life through inability to
make ends meet at least once in
a while. The Register is not
worth as much as some farms
have increased in value since it
was first published. It's pub
fishers are not as well of as If
they had cultivated ten acres of
irrigated land instead of telling
about the opportunities to do so.
For every line of advertisement, /
for every job of printing done,
the Register gives full value, di- /
rectly or indirectly-generally .
both-and many times the meas.
ure is pressed down and running
over. When you feel mean, get
up with a bitter taste in your
mouth and have a crouch at
don't cuss the editor.
The printer has troubles like
other men, and a few others
thrown in to make up for any
possible omissions of Fate.

THE HOT WAVE.
Hot todayw

tfOt tOCaN.
Suppose you have heard that
stale, stereotyped, aggravating,
phrase a few dozen times this
week, and it only served to in
tensify the heat. But truly it
has been warm, very warm,
genuine "nigger weather" and
the desired temperature that
makes the ice man smile.
The hottest weather of the
season has been with us for two
weeks and there are prospects
for still more.
The wave extends over the
whole Pacific Coast and over the
East. At Portland no such
September weather has been
experienced in thirty years and
only once before has it been any
hotter in the history of the city.
1t is not likely that a change
will come before the middle of
the month, according to the
Portland weather forecaster.

BRIEF RESUME OF SCHOOL WORK
Echo Now Has One Of the BEST High
Schools In Eastern Oregon, Offering
Special Advantages to Students.

Echo has always ranked among
the foremost in the matter of her
schools and school facilities.
With a fine set of school, boys
and school. girls, with a Board
who are not afraid to do things
and with parents who by their
encouragement and backing give
their needful aid-one of the
greatest essentials for a success.
full school with n corps of
enthusiastic, pa.nstakinga gandcon-
scientious teaches, it is no Won
der that we have one of the very
best schools in Umatilla County;
no wonder our school has rep.
utation for doing things.
This year will mark a new
epoch in the history of our school.
On account of the new building
not being ready for occupancy,
the work of the High School De.
partment will of necessity have
to be correlated with the work
of the grades, but the High
School plan per the State Course
of Study will be carried to the
letter. Studies which are the
most practical will be given the
preference and all the supple
mentary work will be along prac.
tical lines. Care will also be
taken to choose subjects from
the course which will be best
suited to the individual needs of
the boys and girls of Echo, who
have come up through the
grades under careful observance
of thoughtful teachers. The
following is the plan of work for
the High Schools of Oregon,
who maintain a four-year high
school school course:
