News of the Theaters Music,

From all over the country, north south, east and west, comes news of the growing popularity of stock dramatic companies. Perhaps it is because business on the road was so poor last season that many of the travelling companies did not make their usual tours, or it may be that the high price of theatre tickets and the low price of seats at the movie theatres have made people look for a cheaper type of dramatic enter tainment; but whatever the cause, the fact remains.

A policy of retrenchment has been
declared by the Pendleton school
board, not because the district Is In
financial straits but because recent
improvements and growth In the
schools have necessitated strict
watchfulness over the expenditures
In keeping with its policy the board
last evening decided against extend
ing the manual training course next
wear and eliminated several positions
In the schools.
Next year there win be no super
visor OF music and drawing in the
schools, that position having been
abolished. and the instruction in these
branches will be superintended by the
different teachers and the city super
lntendent, as was done prior to the
creation Of the position OF supervisor
There will be no special instructor In
normal work at the high school,
either that position having also been
abolished. Instead the superintend-
ent and the principal OF the high
school will have charge OF the teach
ers' training classes. In order that
the principal may have more time for
this work. the two upper Latin
courses have been cut out. thus en-
abling the Latin instructor TO take
some OF the classes now taught by
the principal.
