School Notes.

On June 2. visited the school il
District No. 8. This school is unde
the direction of R. G. Dykstra. Only
seven pupils were present. The work
seemSd to be moving along smoothly.
Since nv former visit, fine large
pictures of Washington and Lincoln
have been placed upon the walls.
They not only add to the attractive
ness of the room. but they silently
teach lesson in patriotism. A new
flag has also been purchased recently.
In the afternoon. visited the
school in District No. az. Mrs. Mary
A. Notson is tbs teacher. This
school is small, only six pupils being
enrolled. The school room is decorated
with several pictures and some small
flags. The pupils are diligent and
are making good progress in their
work. The pupils are taking lively
interest in work in rapid calculation.
Several of the young teachers OF
the county will go to Corvallis and
Eugene for the work of the summer
trems. The work has been planned
to meet the needs Of teachers. The
professional spirit shown by these
Young teachers is commendable. Not
all who would like to take advantage
of these summer terms are in position
to attend. Some of these, however.
are planning to do some professional
reading during vacation. A live
teacher will find some means of max
ing progress.

riors were wary in their attack how
ever, evidently wishing 70 draw the
troops forth from protected position.
For seevral hours the fight continued
in desultory way. Meanwhile, Gen
eral Custer had caused the Cheyenne
lodges and other property to be piled
up and burned. That action apparent
II had an exasperating effect upon the
attacking Indians, as they Immediately
redoubled their efforts to dislodge the
cavalrymen from their position, though
without success.
General Custer was becoming con-

of Black Kettles village and everything
connected Herewith, and, in order to
disconcert the followers of Little Ra-

been repulsed, General Custer formed
his command in a column, with skir-
mishers on the fanks and the prisoners
mounted under guard in the rear. Then,
with colors flying, the column took UP
