School Board Decides on the
CHANGES.
To Remove Partition Between
Assembly and Class
rooms.

The school commissioners held
a meeting at the Office of Secre-
tary Axelberg Monday evening
of this week for the purpose of
deciding upon the changes to
be made to the Walker High
School building. On account of
the large increase in scholar ship
of the high school it has become
necessary to enlarge the room
in order to properly accomodate
the pupils, and just how to do
this with as little
eypen.e as possible has
been a problem that the school
board has had to decide. Archi-
tect Henry Wildhagen of Ash
land submitted plans of the pro-
posed changes to the board and
the changes will be along
this line. The partition now be-
tween the assembly room and
the recitation room will be re-
moved, as will also the partition
between the recitation room and
the library. This will give about
che third more floor space. The
room formerly used as a grade
room in the south corner of the
school will be utilized for labra-
tory and the room used last year
by the seventh grade will be
turned into recitation room.
The entire second floor of the
building will be used for high
school purposes. Work On the
proposed changes will be start
ed at once so as to be completed
before school starts. The
changes will not cost TO exceed
$500. The building com mittee
was also authorized to make the
necessary repairs to the other
school buildings,

East African Hiahlands.

The young Englishman, be he officer
or settler in the east African high
lands, cuts hardy figure. His clothes
are few and far between. A sun hat,
a brown flannel shirt with sleeves cut
above the elbow and open to the chest,
pair Of thin khaki knickerbockers
cut short five inches at least above the
knee, boots and a pair Of putties COM
prise the whole attire. Nothing else Is
worn. The skin, exposed to sun,
thorns and insects, becomes almost as
dark as that of the natives, and so
hardened that 1t is nothing to ride all
day with bare knees on the saddle-a
truly Spartan discipline from which
at least the visitor may be excused

SPIRIT LAND MESSAGES.
Do They All Really Come From Minds
Of the Living?


Perhaps all the so called messages
from the dead come from living minds.

DR.. Reed, a friend Of mine, once ar
ranged TO go with a patient TO have q
test sitting with very celebrated
psychic who claimed to be able to read
sealed letters. Just before the ap-
pointed day Reeds patient died sud-
denly Of heart disease, leaving a sealed
letter on his desk.
The doctor, fully alive to the sin.
gular opportunity, put the letter In his
pocket and FASTENED to the medium.
The magician took it in his hand and
pondered. At last he said: This was

A DISCARDED THRONE.
Louis NapoIeon's State Chair, Which
Was Not Used.

Nae wv SoG0s
On the eve of the Franco German
war when the Emperor Louis Napo-
leon entered upon the conflict which
ended so disastrously to himself and
his countrymen couple of strangers
appeared at q German town. They
brought with them large packing
case, which on their arrival was car
ried to hotel. Here the unknown vis-
itors remained some time and eventu-
ally disappeared without paying their
bill, which amounted to a considerable
sum.
The landlord, whose curiosity had
often been aroused with reference to
the possible contents of the case, at
last determined to open 1t, and on do
Ing SO found handsomely designed
and richly upholstered state chair.
This was adorned with the French i'm
perial arms, eagle and Louis Napole-
ons monogram, and beneath 1t was a
musical box which played when the
cushion was sat upon.
1t is supposed that the throne-for
such 1t Is believed to have been-in the
event Of success attending the French
army was to have been used by the
emperor at Berlin after the capture Of
the German metropolis. Fate, howev.

the hotel keeper few years later sent
1t to England, where 1t eventually
found a purchaser.-Stray Stories.

Animal Life.

The whale leads all animals In point
of longevity, his age being placed con-
servatively at 800 to 1000 years. The
tortoise comes next, with an age limit
extending from 100 to 200 years. The
elephant the camel, the eagle and the
crocodile are each credited with 100
years and upward. The carp is an
elusive creature, Its age having been
figured at from seventy-five to 150
years. Tigers, leopards, jaguars and
hyenas live some twenty-five years In
confinement and probably much longer
In the wilderness. Swans, parrots and
ravens live 200 years, pelicans forty to

Portland Union Stockyards, Jan. 16.
The question has been raised, "Why
are the Quotations in Portland's live
stock market less severe than in other
markets." and "Why does not this
market strike some of the high points
reached elsewhere?"
The questions are easily answered
and to the satisfaction Of everyone
concerned.
Portland has always been known
throughout the United States as a
very conservative city. This includes
all lines-llvestock, produce and fl
nancial. 1t has been because Of this
conservatism among the business men
that Portland has kept such a Won
derful hold on the trade of the Pa
cflc northwest, maintained the best
credit among financiers and in recent
years startled the country by the
great and steady gains in business
lines of all kinds.
So far as livestock prices are con-
cerned II has ben demonstrated to
the satisfaction OF those who have
shipped both to Portland and to 9TH
er places where these enormous val
ues are said to rule, that, taking It
day in and day out, month after
month, the average quotation received
is better at Portland than at other
points. The net results of seasons
shipments are therefore In favor OF
this city as the great central livestock
market of the Pacific coast
Some Records Broken.
During the past week the local live
stock market dill few stunts that
were remarkable. Livestock OF all va
rietles, scarce to a degree that almost
resulted in a famine in the local dress
ed meat market broke all former price
records for this period OF the year
and gave forth hope to feedes that the
business was not a lost one and
would again prove profitable. Seven
cent hogs are rather expensive so
early In the season, but this price was
gladly paid for supplies during the
week and maybe for some part OF the
coming week. AZ in other lines hugs
were extremely scarce here and the
great shortage in livestock caused an
unheaval OF values in the dressed meat
markets along Front street.
Steers Almost Extinct.
During the week just ended these
was almost a total absence of steers
in the Portland yards-in fact any
kind OF cattle looked close to top
stuff TO the famiJhed demand AMI
this brought cows up to $3.50. al
though that price was exceptional aud
was received in but single instance
and for a single animal at that 4
of transactions in cows were
reported at 1925 during the last days
of the week For steers the price rul-
ed as high as s5.25 net and for this
period Of the year the value is excep-
tlonal.
Arrivals in the local yards during
the past week compare with the same
period in recent years as follows:
