HAS HIGH PRAISE FOR
DO.SE HIGH SCHOOL

W. S, Deffenbach, representing the
national bureau Of education at Wash
ineton, who was in Boise inspecting the
work done in the high school of this
city, with particular reference to indus
trial work, left last night on his return
to Washington.
Mr., Deffenbach expressed hims Elf
as being greatly pleased with the
practical work being done in this city.
II have no hesitancy in saying" said
Mr.. Deffenbach, that the work here is
far in advance of that done in mbst
of the high schools of the country,
while the cost is much less than the
average cost for such schools. An
other thing 1 noted, and that is the
large enrolment in the high school
here. Boise stands among the leading
cities Of the country in its percentage
of enrolment, showing that the High
school here is doing a work for the
benefit OF all, and not merely mailing
of itself a preparatory school for the
few who desire to enter the colleges
and universities"
The Boise schools will be made the
subject of a pamphlet or bulletin to
be issued by the national bureau of
education and will be one of only three
schools in the United States I'd be
thus singled out. The other two
schools are those of Pittsburg and the
one at Gary, Ind
Mr.. Deffenbach was at Ogden re-
Gently and while there he heard such
praise of the Boise high school that he
determined upon visit here.

EIGHTY PER CENT OF
WOOL CLIP IS SOLD

The wool clip in Idaho this
season Is estimated at 100000
pounds, of which nearly 80 per
cent has already been sold
although but small amount
has been shorn and no sales
held. Merino wool opened at
IA cents in March and has adj
vanced to 16 cents, while the
coarser grades opened at 16 and
16h cents and have advanced to
171a cents per pound. More
wool buyers have come to Ida
no this year than previously
and competition for clips has
been keen. 1t Is doubtful if a
wool sale will be held in the
state this year as a greater bulk
of the wool has been sold and
buyers are in the field after the
small amount remaining.
