THE AUTOMOBILE IN STREET IA.
TALITIES.

1t is fond delusion by anti-automo
bilists that motor vehicles are respon-
sible for more fatalities on the streets
than any or all other vehicles. 1t is a
delusion as is shown by the statistics
for New York City for the month Of
April, as presented by the report of an
association which keeps account of the
cases. This report says that there were
forty-fve persons killed in the streets
of New York by vehicles during the
month, and of the number more than
one-half, or twenty four, were killed by
the numbering trucks, while cars de.
stroyed eleven and automobiles were re-
sponsible for the deaths of ten. Thus
is the delusion of the automobile OPP
ponents proven; and it is safe to say
also that the conception of people in
general is found to be not we'll founded.
Because OF the prominence given to
automobile accidents it has been thought
tHhb MIL IflUI6 pttpIe lHdD
horse. drawn vehicles, and the automo-
biIes has been forced, therefore, to suf-
fer a considerable amount of prejudice.
The prejudice has been the greater, too,
because OF the flagrancy of the speed
abuse to which the automobile is liable,
people reasoning that since the automo-
bile travels rapidly it is the greater
agency of death in consequence. But
they have failed to consider that while
the automobile does move with greater
rapidity than most other street vehicles,
it is also more responsive to quick con.
troll. That is perhaps the reason why SO
relatively few street accidents are caused
by swiftly-moving motor vehicles in
New York City with its great complex
ity of traffic. In any event, let us
give the automobile it's due.

CHEMAwA INDIAN SCHOOL.

The Chemawa Indian Industrial
school offers greater advantages than
ever before to the Indian youth of the
Northwest. During the past year the
industrial facilities of the school have
been greatly increased, so that oppor-
tunities of obtaining an industrial ed
ucation Is not excelled anywhere in
the Indian service.
Under the able management of Ed
win L. Chalcraft, the school has stood
in the front rank as an Industrial
school. The school now has AL acres
Of land OF this 1T acres were pre-
sented to the government by the cit
liens of Salem in order to secure the
school; "a acres were purchased by
students of the school with money
earned by picking hops; the balance
having been purchased by the govern
ment.
Every effort Is made to assist the
pupils in learning good and useful
trades, so that they may become good
and useful citizens. They have excep-
tional advantages for learning farm
ing, dairying, gardening, and in the
care Of orchards exceptional results
have been obtained; record-breaking
crops Of hay, potatoes and vegetables
have been raised.
In addition to farming facilities,
carpentering, wagon-making, black
smithing, shoe and harness making,
tailoring, baking, painting, steam and
electrical engineering and plumbing
are taught the boys, while the girls
are taught to be good housekeepers, to
which is added special instruction in
dressmaking, tailoring, cooking and
nursing.

This institution Is now in the sixth

SACRED HEART ACADEMl.

The city of Salem has long been rec
ognized as one of the leading educa-
tional centers of the west, and the
splendid institution conducted by the
Sisters of the Holy Names has played
no unimportant part in maintaining
this well-established reputation. For
forty-nine years it has been imparting
knowledge and training to young peo-
pie, and each year with increased sue
cess. This years resident student
body includes not only young ladies
from all parts of Oregon, but also from
Montana, Idaho, Washington and CAL
ifornia. While under direct charge
and supervision of a Catholic order Of
Sisters, Sacred Heart Academy is nom
sectarian, in that children of any de-
nomination are admitted and no effort
whatever is made to influence their
religious belief or training. The cur
riculum includes all those studies es-
sential to complete educational
training, also music, art and domestic
science, each department in charge of
most competent instructors. The mu-

had given them. Mind had been awak-
ened and attention turned to inviting
fields OF study and something learned
of the secret and great reward of pa
tient mental search for rational foun-
dations for their faith.
As recommendations for our school
we point with no little pleasure to our
students in the field-to their achieve
ments in church-building and debt
paying; to increased church attend
ance; to awakened religious interest
among young people, and to the i'm
proved quality Of pulpit ministration,
resulting in blessed revivals.
Not everybody knows with definite
ness what sort of instruction theo-
logical school gives to its students.
In the catalogues sent out the real
work Of such schools is hidden under
cover Of words the meaning Of which
is unknown to most laymen and to
many ministers. What is known as
"Systeuatic Theology" is simply such
construction OF Scripture doctrines
as Is consistent with the trend of
Bible teaching and the demands of
moral reason. What is clearly taught
in the Bible concerning God-His at
! tributes and relations to man, what
is clearly taught concerning DIln-
his nature and moral condition, must
each be so interpreted as to give a
system of Christian truth the parts
of which shall be consistent with each
other, with the known facts of nature
and the demands of reason.
! It Is evident that such task cannot
be accomplished in a haphazard law
less way. Every study to be success
fully pursued must be pursued in con-
formity to the laws applicable to that
study. Heretofore the study of what
is known in the school, as "Hermen-
eutics," which means the laws of in,
depreciation, and, in the study of the
Scriptures, the application of these
laws is made in determining the true
meaning of the varied literary forms
under which divine revelation Is made
in the Bible. The study of the Hebrew
Bible and Greek New Testament nal
been pursued by some of our students
whose previous study prepared then
to do so to their advantage.
A knowledge of the rise and devel
opment of the church from the tim,
of the Apostles to the present is i'm
portant to the minister as is also
knowledge of the gradual unfolding
of Christian doctrine. This depart
ment of study is known in the schools
as historical theology. Under thi
head is also included Bible history
Bible geography; text and canon o
Scripture-or How we got our Bible
There Is also a study of the non-Bib
lical religions of the world-a stud.
which when wisely directed yields
stronger and more intelligent faith II
the superiority of the Christian re
ligion.
There is also what might be style
laboratory work. Students are re
quired-one each week-to conduct
preaching service, at the close o
which the preacher is subjected t
kind but faithful criticism by the fac
ulty and, sometimes, by his fellow stu
dents. These drills are of incalculabl
value to the young preacher. Tn
institution is rapidly winning its wa
in the favor and patronage of tn
Methodist church.

, them to do a certain amount of pro-
fessional reading each year, reading
circles have been formed in fifteen
centers in the county. Each circle
has its organization and the secretary
reports to the county school superin-
tendent the proceedings of each meet
ing. Practically every teacher in the
county has attended the first two
meetings of these reading circles.
Each circle adopts one or more of the
books recommended by the state su-
perintendent, and the time is devoted
to the discussion of one or more
chapters Of the book selected.
For number of years all the pu-
pills in the public schools in the county
have been interested in spelling con-
tests. Words are sent out from the
office of the county school superin-
tendent each month, which are pro-
nounced to the pupils by the teacher
The teacher marks the words mis-
spelled and sends the report to the
superintendent. At the close of the
contest in the various schools, the
best spoilers are selected to go to the
county spelling contest. Much inter-
est In the subject of spelling has been
aroused through the agency of these
contests.
Through the county levy of ten
cents per capita every school in the
county is supplied with library books
purchased through the Oregon Library
commission. This gives the pupils Of
the schools excellent reading matter,
which was unheard of in the schools
few years ago. Supplementing these
books, many districts have secured a
travelling library from the Oregon Lii
brary commission. These books cir
culate among the patrons Of the dis
trict.
The supervisors have held many
patrons meetings throughout their
districts, as result the school is
/ growing to be considered the social
center of the district.
