tied many remedies. all OF which
seemed to cause pain without giving
much relief. l finally tried Dr. Miles
Laxative Tablets and found them ex-
cellent. Their action Is pleasant and
mild. and their chocolate taste makes
them easy to take. I am more than
glad to recommend them"

them Clean" is the advice OF all
physicians, because they realize the
danger resulting from habituaI con-
sstipation. Do not delay too long,
but begin proper curative measures.
DIR. Miles Laxative Tablets are
new remedy for this old complaint,
and great improvement over the
cathartics you have been using in
the past, They taste like candy
and work like charm. A trial
will convince you.

That Pendleton has for some years

these factors Ia we'll known TO any one

About ten years ago. the board Of
directors. supported by the people,
began an active campaign Of educa-

Latin. three of German. four of Eng
lish, four of Science, four of History,
four of Mathematics, with various
optional studies. But the characterize
feature of the High School courses
and of the instruction given is the Of
fering Of broad field of practical
study and training directly applicable
to the life work Of the students. In
this respect, the Pendleton High
School is unique. Besides the two
College Preparatory courses above re-
ferred to. there is offered General
Course. an Agricultural Course, a Nor
NAL or Teacher Training Course, and
Courses in Domestic Science and Art.
and In Manual Arts.
The General Course Is provided for
those students who may not go to COL
iege and who have not fully determin-
ei upon their life work. 1t is meant
to be cultural and practical. The
Commercial Course includes four years
in Bookkeeping, Stenogrhphy, Type
writing, Commercial Arithmetic, Com
mercial Law, Commercial Geography,
Correspondence, and allied subjects.
II prepares young people for office
and bookkeeping positions, as well as
for the more successful conduct of pri-
vate business. The four year Agricul-
tural Course embraces Agronomy. with
the practical study of soils as we'll as
crop care and production; Animal
Husbandry with stock rearing and
judging; Horticulture with spefial ref
erence to the planting and care Of
trees. and the marketing of fruit. and
gardening: dairying, with the study

besides practical application out of
doors. A large garden tract Is util-
izei In the testing OF soils and seeds.
as well as in studying the care and
cultivation Of many plants and crops.
The course is designed to initiate boys
into the study Of agricultural life and
pursuits. or to prepare them for ad-
vanced agriculture.
The Normal Course begins with the
Principles of Education, as founda-
ticn preceding the study Of Theory

supplemented by the observation and
actual practice of teaching. The COM
pletion of this course entities the stu
dent to State Certificate without ex-
animation, and prepares the graduate
for practical work in the school room.
The Domestic Science Course in
cludes the careful study Of foods and
food composition. the best methods of
their preparation. as well as suitable
combinations AZ to proportion and
adaptability to conditions of life. All
this study Is vitalized by daily prac-
tice in cooking. The work in Domes-
tic Art embraces cutting ana fitting,
in addition to the various forms OF
plain and fine sewing.
The Manual Training and Manual
Art Course includes Joinery. Wood
turning, Cabinet Making, Pattern
Making. Building Instruction, Ma
Drawing, Lettering, etc. The work OF
the department not only gives the
boys training of mind and muscle
needed at that age, but directs them
in the making of many valuable pieces
OF furniture for home use, and pre-
pares them for positions in planning

vidual desks for students cookery,

companying utensils. a large coal and

buildings with their furnishings con-
stitute a most excellent environment
OF comfort and convenience for ad-
mirable school work. In addition to
these utilitarian furnishings, and as in
dicative Of the aim to make the sur
roundings as uplifting as possible, II
may be stated that during two years
there was expended over SEQ for
suitably framed copies of the best
masterpieces Of art for school room
decoration.
During the time that this excellent
material provision was being made.
an even greater advance was planned
in the essential, vital work of the
school. An enlarged and improved
course of study was prepared and this
was followed by complete re-organ-
ization Of the schools, and more den
mite and thorough requirements for
all grades The entire course for
both elementary and high school was
enriched by the Incorporation Of the
studies and exercises demanded by the
local progressive spirit and approved
by the most modern educational sys-
TENS. But as an estimate Of tho real
purpose and worth Of an institution
can be made only when the final and
highest department Of Its service IL
considered. DO an idea Of the ultimate
results sought by the Pendleton schools
can be formed only by an examination
Of the courses Of study offered by the

THE WOUNDED AT GETTYSBURG

The July American Magazine cele-
brates the 50th anniversary of the
battle of Gettysburg with a thrilling
illustrated account of the battle by
Edgar Allen Forbes, an extract from
which follows:
"And if you would grasp the real
horror of Gettysburg, hear the story
of the wounded of Detroit They fell,
already parched with thirst, on the
afternoon of the first; not until the
night of the third came water and
medical attention. Their leader, Col
onel Morrow, had been left on the
field; before he fell into the enemy's
hands, he tore the straps from his
shoulders to conceal his rank. A con-
siderate officer took notice of his
wound, and allowed him to remain in
the village in a private house instead
of being rushed southwark with the
other prisoners.

goes TO the extent of absolute prohibit
ton OF the importation of the feathers
used in millinery coming from birds

Millions of dollars are annually paid
for such imported feathers. The fair
creatures who bedeck themselves with
this borrowed plumage never stop to
think of the sacrifice of bird life in

States has Jagged behind other civil
lied countries in the adoption of prac-

this brutal traffic. American WON

ment of feathers to expand their
native charm. If they should so in
sist the expert inventive milliners will
be sure to find some enticing substi-

citizenship and giving the state more
and better farmers.
Lincoln school is made as different
as possible from the traditional Gin
stitution." Groups of attractive cot
tages replace the old time single, huge
structure of the cities; instead OF the
big common dining hall usual in chart
table institutions, a number Of small
dining rooms are provided; and each
group OF boys has a separate sleeping
apartment. Every effort is made to
produce real home environment,
where the child may develop under
conditions as nearly as possible like
those of normal home. The school
has a farm Of 600 acres, with model
dairy buildings and a herd of about
$50 cattle. The boys are taught to
produce absolutely clean milk and to
grow fruit and vegetables by the most
modern methods.
Home and social training is empha-
sized in the Lincoln school. Not only
are the boys trained to be good farm
ers, but they are fitted for entrance
TO the better class of rural homes.
I'VE feel that our training makes a
boy very acceptable member of soci-
ety." declares Brother Barnabas, su-
perintendent of the school "Our aim
is to teach the boy to know and re-
spect himself; to give him the means
whereby he may be enabled to earn an
honest livelihood; to teach him habits
Of thrift and economy. so that some
day from the savings of his industry
he may become a home owner and
live a simple life under conditions
which give him correct ideas of hjr
civic and social obligations"
