Teachers who have not been here
hong enough to reach the maximum OF
sheir grade win receive the regular
annual increase under the rule and

Or. Dyes Address.

DR.. Dyes work in equatorial Africa
has been attended with much success.
Thirteen years ago found these people
a savage cannibal race, with no writ
ten language, but with a vocal Ian
guage wonderful in its construction
and expression of thought. Polvgamy
was the common form of social Gus
tom. Woman was degraded to the
point of a beast Of burden. She tills
the soil and does all the drudgery;
unloyed and beaten by her master, she
is kicked out to starve and died when
seriously i'll or sold to another man
who would pay high price for her.
The missionaries found these people
naked and savages with no formal
worship and no systematic religion,
but afraid of evil spirits and witches,
they welcomed the story OF God who
! loves and cares for the people, who
takes away fear and gives hope and
faith and love of fellowman instead
! After the first baptism, the. church
/ there grew till it numbered at last
report 1000 baptised members, who
are living the life of a civilized com
munity. quietly going about their own
business. earning an honest living, in
/ dustrious. peaceable, clean, truthful
and faithful. A transformation so
great has come about that it marvell-
ed Professor Starr of Chicago univer-
sity, who visited there and has highly
+ pOmp1emnnted tho work
The most remarkable thing about
this native church in the hehart of
the dark continent is that they sup
port every tenth man as their repre-
sentatives and missionaries to their
fellows yet in savagery and degrade
ton. DR.. Dyes address made most
favorable impression on his audience
and forced the idea upon the people
of the Importance of foreign mission
airy work.
Rev. Dr.. A. e Cory.
Rev. DR.. Cory gave most interest
ing address about the conditions in
China, that country so prominent in
the worlds eye. DR.. Cory is dean of
Nankin college in China, an education
al institution which has much to do
with the preparation of young native
Cinnamon for missionary work among
their own people. DR.. Cory is we'll
learned and experienced in the matter
of which he spoke so entertainingly.
His words showed the wonderful
transformation that has taken place in
China in the past and the great strides
taken in the matter of christianity.
The principal native men, its leading
statesmen and officials are now of
the christian faith It's prominent
commissions in government work are
mostly christians. Many of these men
were trained in the university in
which DR.. Cory is dean. His remarks
were listened to with earnest atten-
ton.
These missionaries, Drs. Dye and
Cary, are in movement to raise the
largs sum of $1,0ooooo for foreign
missionary PURPOSES and half that
sum has already responded to the
labors III this effort They are at
home now appealing for funds from
the churches TO- completing this fund
for a worldwide missionary effort.

Sam Irvine, who named Agate
Beach, is developing a reputation as a
broncho buster.
The number Of Willamette valley
people who have never seen the ocean
Is surprisingly large. Wilton Simeral,
for many years farmer at the Reform
School, and grand marshal at the
State Fair, crossed the plains as boy
in 1866, and never saw salt water
until last year at Newport. He is a
cousin of Manager Blanchard of the
Oregon Light & Power Co. When
Wilton landed at Newport he never
stopped but went right out to the Pa
cific and stood there until It was too
dark to see anything. He got up the
next morning at 8 o'clock and looked
at 1t four hours, until the tide came
up to his knees.
