Oavidson's captain and quarterback.
intercepted q forward pass on his
shtrty-yard line. and BY . splendid run
carried II over for the touchdown,
which decided the game by q score OF

The last two quarters were spent in
squabbling and being penalized for
he most part, although Todd. OF
Davidson, did some deadly line pIung-
ing, and Booze. playing under Wake
Forests protest. did some clever
broken field running. In the last half
Davidson made enough gains TO net
:wo or three more touchdowns. but

The Anderson building, located on

day, too much weight bearing on the

to the clothing store now occupying
the building. When the wall was re-
moved, a great weight was placed on
the corner foundation and It being
hardly secure enough, resulted in the

Salem was shown Saturday when A.

thanking him for the consideration
sohwn them in the form Of $3.50 worth
of candy and $500 worth Of peanuts
which they received Christmas day.
Mr. Magers has always been a great
friend Of the employees of the local

stant cheerful disposition and kindly
treatment Of the hello" girls, they
have formed a great liking for the
popular business man.

Alderman Talks to The
Teachers in Portland

Portland, Or, Dec. 2S,-(Speclal)-
Changes revolutionary in educational
circles were advocated by l.. R. Alder
man, state superintendent of public
instruction, in an address at the open.
ing session Of the Oregon State Teach
ers' association here Thursday.
That the state eighth grade examin-
aylons have served their purpose and
could be made optional instead Of
compulsory for the completion of the
grammar school was one of the charg-
es which superintendent Alderman
limited he would attempt to bring
about while he is in Office The edu-
Gator doubts if textbooks should be
uniform throughout the state. He sug-
gested that local adoption of books
might be a good change to bring about
since the schools have come to reflect
the industrial life of the communities.
Also he doubts If books used in city
schools are always desirable for coun.
try schools. The superintendent adj
vocates the changing of only few of
the books at a time.
Superintendent Alderman pleaded
for support in keeping the supervisory
law on the statute books In a moral
way he asks the support Of the relig-
ious bodies Of the state and the press
in suppressing the cigarette evil.
Superintendent Alderman said:
Ladies and Gentleman, or what
shall say, fellow voters? This is the
secohd meeting of the western divis-
ion Of the state association, under its
new organization, that Of confer
ence, When connected with the coun-
ty institutes as Of old, only those were

make this a very important working
session.

opportune time for us to consider 4
'he law can be improved so that ou
textbooks can the better meet our
needs.
I wish in the first place to cal.
your attention to the fact that tb,
present law contemplates a CHANGE IN
June OF all the textbooks now in use
or the retention of all for another ne.
rloo OF six years. The expense to the
parent OF an entire change Of books IS
considerable. Would 1t not be better
lor the textbook commission to meet
every Two years and select only a part
OF the books at any one meeting, thue
distributing the expense over a longer
period Of time? As it is. the members
.ot the commission complain that the
work involved in an entire cbanpe
cannot be satisfactorily done in the
short time allotted to them by law,
Each book company has its claims and
Its books, and in the general rush TO
lnlsh a compromise is made. Again
1t Is found almost impossible for the
publishers and dealers to furnish the
textbooks in time for the opening of
school In September, But perhaps the
most serious evil attendant upon the
present system is that the teacher is
not given time to become familiar
with the texts before attempting to
teach them, nor can there be any
adequate course Of study prepared be-
tween the time of adoption and the
beginning Of school,
Are Uniform Texts Necessary?
81 should like to have the merits Of
absolute uniformity Of textbooks dis
cussed at this meeting, Is the text
that is suitable for the country school
the best that can be had for the city
school? We have, Of course, many
students who go from the country to
the city, and without uniformity such
students would be compelled to buy
new texts. With this consideration
left out, are we apt to secure as good
books on as favorable terms, as we
would without uniformity? If agreed

and was carried further today, al
though Colonel Roosevelt said he was
going to give more time to literature
than to politics. The colonel was
scheduled to put in a busy day. He
spent last night with Grafton d. Cush-
ing, speaker of the Massachusetts
House. Today he expects to haze an
other talk with Governor Bass, Of New
Hampshire, and to meet several Massa-
chusetts politicians.
Colonel Roosevelt is to go to Har-
ward and spend most of the remainder
of today there. He was to take lunch
with his son, Kermit, and several MEM
bers of the Harvard faculty. The
luncheon, Colonel Roosevelt said, would
have a pronounced literary flavor, with
Dickens probably the chief subject of
discussion. The colonel has pronounced
views upon the subject Of Dickens.
President A. Lawrence Lowell, of
Harvard, was to entertain Colonel
Roosevelt at dinner. The colonel had
expected to remain at President Low
ellis home over night, but today de-
cided to return to Boston this evening.
He will be the guest of DIT. sturgis
Bigelow.
Colonel Roosevelt's visit to Boston,
according to present plans, will come
to an end tomorrow. He will attend
the meeting of the Harvard board of
overseers. Of which he is a member,
