THE EASTERN OREGON NORMAL.

Teachers know better than do 9TH
er people whether or not an eastern
Oregon normal school is needed and
the eastern division of the state teach
ers' association has heartily endorsed
the move to r~eestablish the Weston
normal. The teachers know that I'M
less normal instruction is provided by
the state in eastern Oregon that this
section of the state will soon face a
serious situation. There will be a
dearth of capable teachers. This for
the reason that our young people are
now going to eastern Washington and
to Idaho normals for instruction and
are o~bligating themselves to teach IN
those states after graduation. If the
standard of the public schools of
eastern Oregon is to be maintained
then the Eastern Oregon normal must
be revived and given adequate, per-
manent support. Nor will it do at
all to maintain but one normal school
in this state and that one in western
Oregon. With a single normal school
in western Oregon and none in east
ern Oregon the young people of east
ern Oregon will continue to go to the
Washington normals and so become
lest to this state. If eastern Oregon
is to be provided with a sufficient
number Of properly trained school
teachers arrangements must be made
for giving normal instruction in east
ern Oregon. The Eastern oregon
normal at Weston must be reestab-
lished.

AT THE END.

When the sands in the hour-glass
falter,
And the end of it all is nigh;
When the signal is made for the cur
tain
And the footlights begin to die,
1t is good TO glance back at the du-
ties
We have done in the days gone by.
When the grave in the grass is yawn-
ing
And we totter, decrepit and gray;
When the darkness begins to hover
AS We near the end of the day,
It is good to look back at the flowers
We have planted along the way.
When the candle is burned to the
socket
And the flame in the wind is bent;
When the life to the utmost limit
OF years is nearly spent,
II is good to look backward at the
kindness
Our lives to others have lent.
When the windows begin to darken
And we bid farewell to the sun;
When the singing is turned to silence
And the end Of it all is won,
1t is good to gaze back through the
twilight
At the good that we may have done.

GOOD FRIENDS TO HAVE.

Before leaving for his home at Lew
iston last evening, A. n. Wright,
newly elected president of the Inland
Empire teachers association expressed
the strongest praise for the
in which Pendleton entertained the
teachers convention. He declared
that never before in II years has the
association been so well cared for.
From reports it seems his sentiments
are shared, almost unanimously by
the $50 teachers who were here for
the convention. They all expressed
appreciation of the courtesies shown
them and especially of the reception
Tuesday night and the trip to the
agency yesterday. Then the express
sion was heard on every hand that
the business establishments of the city
are ~up-to-date and that prices in PEN
dleton are reasonable. THE store
people, hotel and restaurant people,
the church people and everybody else
were courteous to us and they did not
advance prices,'' declared one teacher
in expression of her sentiments yes
terday afternoon.
Pendleton made good friends dur
ing the teachers convention and I'M
less all signs fail our departing visit
ors will henceforth be good boosters
for this little city. 1t pays : to be
courteous n besides it is the right
thing to do anyway.

A throng Of local people visited the

is because there are not many farm

"SENEN DAYS.

There are real engagements, secret

broken engagements, and a popular

IN CHICAGO HOUSES.

The City" Clyde Fitch's play is in
its third week of its Chicago engage
ment at the Grand opera house. The
western metropolis has had to wait a
year or more for this dramatic event.
Tully Marshall. the player who step
ped into fame over night by his marve-
lous portrayal Of the degenerate drug
fiend, Hammock, is thrilling audiences
nightly by his sustained half hour of
tempestuous acting. The City shows,
in tragic contrast, the influence of ur-
ban life upon a group of characters
who come to New York from an up
state town. It's economic theory is
sound. and represents a deeper philoso-
ply than Clyde Fitch had ever attempt
ed in any of his foregoing 80 odd plays.
In addition to Mr. Marshall the able
company which is Interpreting THE
City" includes: A. H. Stuart, Wilson
Melrose. Eva Vincent, Lucille Watson,
Mary Nash, George Howell and Mary
Servoss. The Chicago engagement will
last for six more weeks.

ming Sunday night Alice Yorke and
Grace Drew will alternate in the
part of Nadima in the Chocolate
Soldier" Each week from Sunday
until Wednesday night Alice Yorke
will sing the part and from Thurs
day until Saturday night Grace Drew
will be the prima donna. This play
has proved the hardest one TO sing
on the comic opera stage for many
years. The range of the music is
so great that it has practically worn
out the voice of the former prima
donna, Antoinette Kopetzky who has
cancelled her contract and gone to
California. With her resignation
came the problem of continuing the
play and Manager Herbert Duce fl
nally decided that the only way to
preserve the voices of his stars in

In view of this the Lord exhorts that
his consecrated followers Of the Church
or Virgin class be constantly on the
alert, because they know neither the
day nor the hour of the Masters COM

The parable does not show how the
foolish Virgins. excluded from the

Bride class, will be treated. Other
Scriptures, however, show that this
foolish virgin class will share with the
