SCHOOL NOTES.
BY Supt. S. E. Notson.

On the 9Th inst | visited the
school in District No. IS. Here
found five pupils under the direction
of Miss Letitia Shewey. Although
the school had been in session only
few days, the work was well under
way. The teacher and pupils are de-
termined to secure as many credits
as possible toward standard school.
In district No. 20, Miss Alice Ar
mold is again at the helm. This
school is also small school, the en-
rollment being seven. The flag was
displayed from an excellent flag-pole
on the building. This secured for
the school the first star on the stand
ard card. l noted that the floor had
been carefully scrubbed. In fact the
school room had been put in good
condition before the opening of
school.
In District No. 9 the enrolment is
eleven. Miss Josephine McDevitt is
the teacher. This school has a new
flag, and the boys are arranging to
repair the fag-pole so the flag can be
flying in good weather A fine set
of maps and new dictionary have
been provided recently.
At Cecil we'll arranged two-room
school building has just been built.
Beside the two school rooms there
is a large library room. The lighting
of this building has been properly
arranged, and there is no lack in the
amount of it. the window space be-
ing ample. The light will be reg
ulated by means of adjustable can
vas shades. The hall and the cloak
rooms are convenient in arrange
ment and size. Twenty-three pupils
were enrolled when l visited the
school, and several more were ready
to enter Miss Esther Cox was in
charge, but it was found necessary
to employ another teacher in order
to accommodate the pupils who wished
the ninth and tenth grade work. Miss
Erma Davenport, of Sumpter, was
secured for the second room. With
the new building and two teachers,
everything points to a successful
years work.
In District No. 2S, Miss Ida Olson
is the teacher. Here | found the flag
displayed. The interior of the build
ing has been painted. The decora-
tions were tasty. The water supply
is kept in a closed tank, and the pu.
pills have individual cups. A new
set Of maps and new state map
have been purchased recently.
Miss Olianna Olson teaches the
school at Morgan. The flag was fly
ing at this school. The enrolment
is seventeen. The interior of the
building was painted anew during
vacation. The pupils have construct
ed some play apparatus and plan to
build more. A good case is provided
for the library books. The water
supply is properly kept.
In District No. So Miss Elva
Troedson and nine pupils were get
ting started nicely with the work of
the term. A number of improve
ments are contemplated by the board

WOOL GROWERS WILL
MEET IN PEkDLETOA
State Association VIII Gather In 1 7th
Annual Convention on November
q and and Many Important
Questions viii be Dis
cUSSeG,

The 18th Annual Convention of
the Oregon Wool Growers Associa-
tion will be held in Pendleton on the
9th and 7th of November and the call
to the wooigrowers has already been
issued by the secretary. John G.
Hoke, of Medical Springs, Oregon.
In announcing the convention, the
officers of the association say, "a new
area is opening to Wool Growers of
Oregon in regard to the movement of
wool from this state. In the opening
Of the Panama Canal, practically all
wool and mohair will move West
ward via Portland, Oregon. There
has been some action taken regard
ing a wool warehouse or storage for
this purpose of centralizing all Woods
and Mohairs of Oregon at this point,
and holding Auction Sales under
sealed bids. Some growers favor
this plan. However, it is essential
that all Wool Growers and Breeders
Of Mohairs get together and discuss
this proposition thoroughly"
Among other topics that will be
discussed are: Better Marketing of
Wool; The Land Question; Diseases
of Sheep; Railroad Rates and Ser
vice: National Forests; Better Types
of Range Sheep Running Sheep in
Range Pastures.
Pendleton is making preparation
to entertain the visitors in real
Roundup style and it is safe to pre-
dict that the banner wool producing
county of Oregon, that is, Morrow
county, will send large delegation.

get to see the first game of the sea-
son in this city next Tuesday. On

The annual High School rally was
held by the students last Friday eve
ming. Almost every member of the
grammar schools, as we'll as the high
school were in attendance. A huge
bonfire and several speeches were the
main attractions. A near hitch in
the proceedings was caused by some
mischievous person or persons, who
on the night before had set fire to
the great pile of boxes and other ma
terial which the high school boys
had gathered for the occasion. The
fire was a good one. but not accord
ing to program. The boys got busy
and gathered more fire wood, and 1t
is the general opinion that the second
fire made bigger blaze than the
first one.

A Good Topographic Map.

The State Engineer has mailed to
the postmaster at Heppner a neatly
framed topographic map, covering a
considerable area in this part of the
state. The postmaster has been re-
quested to display the map in the
post Office in order that the atten-
tion of patrons of the office may be
called to these valuable maps. Full
instructions for securing copies of
these maps are given, also explana-
tion as to the particular purpose for
which they may be used. These
probably are the most accurate road
maps published and are therefore
useful to the travelling public, par
ticularly automobilists. They also
show the location of every farm
house, including cities and towns,
streams, or difference in elevation
can also be determined from the map.
These maps are made by the State
Engineer in cooperation with the U.
s. Geological Survey and while only
very small part of the State has
been covered, the work will be dis
continued in case the provisions of
the George Bill", to abolish the
Desert Land Board and reorganize
certain state offices, is passed and its
provisions become effective.
These maps are the foundation
work for the future development of
the state as they show the location of
feasible irrigation, power and drain
age projects, the proper location for
railroads and highways, and are of
value to every farmer whose farm
has been thus actually surveyed.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Andrew Rood, Jr., young farm
er of Heppner Flat, was rendered
unconscious yesterday morning when
he was kicked by one of his horses,
and is, as a result, suffering at the
present time from concussion of the
brain. DR.. McMurdo was called to
attend the injured man. He re-
moved him to town where he is slow
ly recovering. His arm was badly
bruised where the horses hoof
struck. The force of the kick sent
Mr.. Rood against the side of the
barn with sufficient force to knock
him unconscious.

HEPpNER HIGH TAKES
FIRST GAME FROM lone
Superior Weight and Speed on Part
of Locals Proves Undoing for
the Egg City Lads-Teams
viii Meet Again on
Election Day.

Heppner High School, with prac-
tically green team, many OF the
players never before having taken
part in a football scrimmage defeated
the lone gridiron warriors on their
own field last Saturday afternoon by
a score of II to 8. The score, how
ever, does not tell the tale. The lone
lads were outweighed about 7
pounds to the man, and at many
stages of the game the Heppnerites
were clearly outplayed. 1t was a
game of old style football from the
first kickoff, and the line plunging
at times was fierce.
Fat" Blake, Ione's husky full
back, was responsible for the three
points won for his side. This was
done by a pretty place kick in the
third quarter In fact, young Blake
stood out head and shoulders at all
times above his teammates, both in
offensive and defensive playing.
Blake is captain of the Egg City
team.
For Heppner, each player was an
individual star, and considering the
coaching and practice they have had
they made remarkable showing.
Mug" Hayes demonstrated that he
has the makings OF first class field
general, and his running mates in
the back field give promise of making
good as we'll. Adkins and Wright
carried the ball in fine style and af-
ter some more practice will make a
hard pair to handle. Both are husky
and quite speedy.
Morgan was the shining light on
the Heppner line, and arrayed
against him was Ione's most stalwart
tackle, X. Blake. Wattenburger and
Parker are speedy ends and with
more coaching will be too fast for
anything in this neck O. the woods.
Wattenburger is sprinter with an
established reputation.
A large number of Heppner root
ers accompanied the team to lone.
Another game will be played in this
city on election day Tuesday, and a
good attendance is anticipated.
The two teams lined up Saturday
in the following manner:
Ione-Pennington, center; Howell
and r. Sperry, guards; R. Blake and
X. Blake, tackles; D. Rietman and
E. Blake, ends; v Rietman, quarter,
Cochran, r. half; II. Sperry, |. half;
M. Blake, full back.
Heppner-Slocum, center; Hughes
and Lieuallen, guards; Clark and
Morgan, tackles; Wattenburger and
Parker, ends; Hayes, quarter; Cox,
r. half; Wright, |. half; Adkins, full
back.
Ohicials-Re Referee, Brick CO.

TAKES L|FE.-NO
REASON FOR IT
Body Of Erick HarjuIin Found With
Throat Slashed

The body of Erick Harjulln Of North
Tamarack, aged about 90 years, res
ident of Calumet FOR about thirty
years, was found at an early hour this
morning in the woods about mile
from his home, with his throat slash
ed from ear to ear. Circumstances in
dictated suicide and Coroner Fisher was
summoned. impanneling jury consist
ing OF John Wills. Dan Cusick, Jo-
seph Chynoweth, Edward Harter, Will
liam knight and Jerry Shanahan, VINO
visited the scene at about $3.50 this
morning and adjourned the inquest
until this afternoon.
There is no reason known for Har-
julin's act. He was in good health, was
not respondent and apparently looked
on the brighter side of life. Yesterday
morning he visited Red Jacket to pur-
chase some supplies, helped his wife
with some of the housework and about
noon announced his intention to visit
some friends who live on Il farm. His
failure to return up to IL o'clock,
aroused the anxiety OF his family and
a search was instituted with the above
result. Beside the body of the man,
which was leaning against a stump,
was his own razor. The cash in his
throat was frightful one and he had
been dead some time.
At the beginning of the strike, Har-
iulin was not a member of the West
ern Federation of Miners, but he was
prevailed upon to join and towards the
end of the controversy, he was one OF
the most ardent strike supporters. AL
though he had frequently expressed his
dissatisfaction with the decision to re-
turn to work, il is not thought this was
the reason for his irresponsible act, for
he was a man of some means and had
contemplated purchasing a farm. Har-
julin had a quiet disposition, was a
tee totaler and yesterday seemed in
the best of spirits. \ sudden loss of
mental power is the only plausible eX-
PLANTATION of his death. The deceased
was a member of Sampo Tent X. o..

Besides his wife, two sons, one OF
whom is in the L. S. regular army on
the Mexican border, and one daughter,
Mrs. Sihtala, survive. No arrangements
have been made for the funeral.
