School Notes.

Last Friday, the writer made {
brief call at our public school
Miss Koehnke's primary pupils
sang a song or two. Later the
fourth grade came to the primary
room for their music work. Both
of these classes manifested much
interest in the music work.
In Miss Reid's room, the pupils
were marching. They are prompt
to obey the commands and are de-
veloping a soldierlv bearing, The
attractive blackboard border must
be very pleasing to these little
people, and it unconsciously culti-
Yates taste for the beautiful. We
sometimes underestimate the in
fluence of the beautiful in the
school room.
In Mics Currin's room, the pu-
pupils were working diligently du-
ring a study period. Everyone
seemed to be making good use of
his time. To Miss Winnsrd's and
Mrs. Turner's rooms. no recitation
work was in progress, but every
thing had the air of industry.
In Miss Brewers room, the pu-
pills were making a study of that
beautiful poem, The Coast Guard"
While some portions seemed some

WILL NOT AMEND
HOMESTEAD LAW
Senator Bourne AbandOnS
Urging Enactment
of Bill.

Senator Jonathan Bourne Jr.
has decided not to urge for enact
ment the bill he introduced in the
senate recently for the purpose oi
amending the enlarged homestead
law in it's application to the state
of Oregon.
In a letter to the Portland Conn
mercial club, Senator Bourne states
that he requested discussion Of
the measure and received large
number of letters concerning it.
A large majority Of the letters, he
writes-were favorable to the bill,
nevertheless be found considerable
opposition, and owing to it con-
cIuded not to urge the enactment
Of the bill at this time, although
be still maintains that eventually
the correctness of the principle in
volved will be recognized. The
bill was based on the principle |
that production rather than mere
residence should be the prerequi-
site to the requirement of title to
non-irrigable lands.
Further, Senator Bourne states
that the senate committee on pub
lie lands has reported an amend
ment to his bill SO as to make the
Utah law apply to the state of
Oregon. The bill as amenced has
passed the senate, and if it should
become law, Senator Bourne ex-
plains, it will bring the state of
Oregon within the provision Of
section 6 of the enlarged home
stead act, which section has here
tofore applied only to the state of
Utah, and which as amended reads
as follows:
"That whenever the secretary Of

heart of the production.
The pictures upon the walls OF
the school rooms deserve mention,
ALSO The silent teaching of a
beautiful picture is far reaching.
The picture Of Washington, which

is ever inspiring to uprig ghtness of
character and patriotism.
The writer had the pleasure of
looking through the fine, new mi
croscope. This is certainly a val
liable addition to the equipment.
The writer could not help think
ing that it would be fine thing if
all the rooms were provided with
the byloplate blackboard. The
save in crayon would more than
pay interest on the investment,
saying nothing about the improved
sanitary coiditilns in the matter
of less dust to afflict the eyes and
lungs and the removal of much
eye strain.
The gong began to sound fire
alarm. 10 a twinkling, the boys
WAC see that the exits are open,
were at their posts, and imme-
diately the teachers and pupils
filed out without the slightest con-
fusion. 1t was matter of only
few seconds to clear the building.

Points Regarding the
Census

The census begins April
Is and must be completed in
two weeks In cities aud in 80
days in all other areas.
The enumerators will wear
a badge inscribed Omitted
States Census. 1910"
The law requires every
adult person to furnish the
prescribed information, but
also provides that it shall be
treated confidentially, SO that
no injury can come to any
person from answering the
questions.
The President has issued a
proclamation, calling on all
citizens to cooperate with
the census and assuring them
that it has nothing to do with
taxation, army or jury SER
vice, compulsory school at
tendance, regulation of i'm
migration. or enforcement Of
any law, and that no one can
be injured by answering the
inquiries.
1t is of the utmost import
ance that the census of pop
ulation and agriculture in
this state be complete and
correct.
Therefore every person
should promptly, accurately,
and completely answer the
census questions asked by
the enumerators.
