FROM SUPT. NOTSON.

/ desire to call attention to and in
dorse the letter of State Supt. Alder
man, found in this issue of the Gaz-
ette-Times, in regard to the annual
meeting. / wish also to suggest that
it will be found advisable in most
districts to postpone voting a special
tax until after the tax roll is COM
pleted next fall. You will then know
your valuation and will have received
your app0rtionment from the State
and County funds, which will enable
you % determine more definitely your
financial needs. I tlust the clerks
will observe the note at the bottom of
the first page of the annual report
flank and see to it that the report is
sent in within FIVE days after the an
nual meeting. The State Superinten-
dent insists upon prompt reports from
the county superintendents, and the
county superintendent can not make
his report until the clerks have sent
in their reports.
Teachers who are entitled to renew
al of their certificates should make
application at the time of the regular
examination next week have blank
forms, which will be mailed upon
request.

the condition of the roads, the most

warehouses in Heppner for the sales
last week. Growers generally are
we'll satisfied with the prices received
and on the whole the season is wind

Seriously Injured.

While returning from trip to his
farm, known as the Stalter ranch on
Thursday evening last, DR.. n. E.
Winnard met with an accident that
has put him ION the shelf So to
speak, for the next few weeks TO
come. He was riding that "infer
nal'' machine of his, otherwise known
as a motorcycle, and speeding down
the road at pretty good clip lodging
rocks and chucks as best he could,
but as it was getting dark he was un
able to see very we'll. Just after
passing the al Osmin place the ma
chine struck a small rock aud before
the doctor could gather himself he was
thrown to the road with the heavy
machine on top of his right leg, and
grinding away at his foot. He sue
ceeded in pulling himself loose and
found that no bones were broken but
that the foot had been badly wrenched
and sprained and the flesh and liga-
meuts torn from the bone. His
shoulder was also badly bruised and
altogether he was in a helpless condi-
tion. 1t was impossible for him to
help himself so he had to lay beside
the road for about two and a half
hours till some one came along to pick
him up. A little past eleven O'Clock
he was brought to the hospital and
his injuries cared for. He is done
with that machine and will seek a
safer mode of travel in the future.
being thankful that he got out of this
scrape without cracked neck.

The Annual Meeting.

To the Patrons of Oregon Schools:
We do not attach sufficient import
ance to our annual school meeting.
This year our annual meeting occurs
June II. On this day one director
and the clerk are to be elected in
eery school district in Oregon, mat
ter of much Importance to each COM
muniy. | should be very glad, in
deed, to find tia many of the Oregon
school districts were making the day
of the annual school meeting an i'm
portant occasion, and at the same time
taking advantage of being together to
talk over the problems of the schools.
The voting for director and clerk
will take place at the school house.
1t should be remembered that women
already have the privilege of suffrage
in school elections. If all the women
of the community will pack their lunch
baskets, and assemble at the school
house on the morning of June IL, l
am confident that the men will be
there also when the sun reaches the
meridian. OF course, the members
of the family under voting age will
have to have dinner. So all will
spread out their lunches under some
pleasant shade, and enjoy dinner to-
gether.
After a good dinner all will be in
the right frame of mind for selecting
the officers, and discussing school
affairs. The patrons will have this
opportunity to investigate the conidi-
tions of the school house and grounds,
and see what repairs are needed;
whether the school house is properly
heated, lighted, and ventilated, and
what books and pictures are most
needed. Let us make June II a red
letter day for our district.
Yours for better schools,

Fuchs-LichtenthaI.

A very quiet wedding took place
early Monday morning of this week,
our genial baker, Frank Fuchs taking
unto himself help-meet in the per-
son of Mrs. Lena Lichtenthal. 1t
was surmised by few that such an
event would take place sometime, as
they had seen the baker tempting
the widow with frequent samples of
his culinary art, but it was quite a
surprise to have them up and get mar
ried and slip away so queitly to Port
land on Mondays train, as man and
wife. The marriage took place at
the home of the bride, in the presence
of a few witnesses, the ceremony be-
ing performed by the Rev. W. A.
Pratt, pastor of the Methodist church.
