illustrate what we mean Your old
course of study led primarily to prepa-
ration for college entrance. This gave
an excellent high school of the aca-
demic type. In that course was offer
ed twenty-three years work, "a
years work meaning a subject carried
five hours per week throughout the
school year.)
Now only about ten. per cent of the
pupils who enter high school ever go
to college: the other ninety per cent
leaving the high school remain in the
community and take up the lines of
work offered here. Three lines of
work especially appeal to the stu
dents of the Delta high school: Bus
mess, agriculture and that of teach
ing.
The Board of Education, believing
that the high school should serve the
needs of all the pupils, in the course
of study for 1919-20 added three de-
partments Agriculture, business and
normal training. This year we were
able to put in only commercial and
normal training. The agriculture de-
partment could not be housed to meet
the Federal requirements and cannot
become a part OF the course until ad-
ditional room is found.
Perhaps it should be explained that
the Federal Government will pay one
half the expense of an instructor in
agriculture where necessary arrange
ments are made for housing the de-
partment. The High Schools of
Montrose Grand Junction and Glen
wood Springs on the Western Slope
are availing themselves of this Fed
eral provision.
The changes already made have in
creased the course from twenty-three
years work to thirty-two and one-half
years work, thus increasing the num-
ber of classes given per day. making
a necessary heightened school day
from $50 to Ais.
Both the increase in number of pu
pills and the adding of the necessary
courses to meet the new needs of the
high school have brought about con-
gested condition that demands imme-
diate remedy II We expect to continue
the present high standard of class
room work and meet the standards set
by the North Central Association of
High Schools and Colleges.
Leading Facts About Your High School
That Delta has the largest high
School enrolment in its history.
That there are 246 students to be
placed in five recitation rooms and an
assembly with SO seats.
That 43 recitations must be held in
five rooms This requires period
day from $50 a. m. to 4:15 p. m.
That the Music and Art teacher has
no room in which to meet her High
School classes.
That the National Government must
under the Smith Hugh law pay half
the salary of an agriculture teacher if
Delta will furnish a suitable room.
All the larger schools around Delta
are receiving this aid.
That health education and physical
culture is not taught in the Delta
High School because there is no gym.
That the Delta High School will
lose its place on the list of accredited
High Schools unless better housing
conditions are secured.

Editor Herald. klamath Falls. Ore.
Dear Sir-l notice In your issue OF
February 25th. where Senator Bald
win and Representative Merryman
had introduced In the senate a joint
memorial and resolution asking the
Oregon delegation In congress to Sc
cure the passage OF a bill permitting
Klamath County to be annexed to
and become part Of the state OF
California.
Now to be sure, a great many pco-
pie will consider II as a Joke, but In
my estimation the case Is one for very
serious thought. The facts are that
the state Of Oregon seems to have
lost sight OF her southern counties.
and most especially her southeastern
ones. except on election or tax times.
and ] think We are too far away from
Portland to ever expect very much
relief from that source. 1t has also
occurred to me, although ! may be
mistaken, that the northern counties
Of California stand in the same rela-
tions with that state, although | am
sure California would welcome the
ohuoAottOu VI NtoUutu ttoWcNtT,
California is now about 1000 miles
long. with her principal activities in
the central and southern part OF the
state. My ideas may be premature.
but In my Judgment. the day will
come. and II is not very far of. when
part OF Southern Oregon and part
OF Northern California will be united
to form another Pacific state. and un.
til such time comes. unless there Is
some radical change from the past.
We cannot hope to develop the great
and wonderful resources that lilo
within the territory OF Southern Ore
gon and Northern California. Now.
I am not writing you these lines to
start an argument or create a dis
turbance, but merely as good for
thought along the lines OF our future
welfare. Respectfully yours.

A call has been issued from Nation
al Headquarters for certain knitted
articles for the use OF the women
and children in the war devastated
countries.
The recent request to Chapters t.,
stack their needles" was based on
the fact that all garments necessar.
for the use of the soldiers and sailors
are made and in stock.
We are now faced. however. with
another need. that Of the destitute
women and children. This need 10
to degree which few OF us at home
can possibly realize. Pitiable stories
are told of thousands Of children who
are barefooted and barelegged while
snow and ice is upon the ground. To
help In this emergency we are asked
to knit up the supply of yarn on hand
in Chapters and Division Warehouse
as soon as possible.
We trust that every knitter will
plan to get their yarn and push the
work forward as rapidly as possible.
This is an appeal TO the women
and children Of America to assist the
women and children OF less fortu.
nate countries. The task of knitting
articles for the soldiers and sailors
has been done and finished. We trust
that our knitters will take up this
new work with equal enthusiasm.

BRANCH OPENED
HERE FOR CASA
GRANDE LANDS
Convinced Of Great Farm
ing Opportunities In That
District, Branch Started
At D. B. Heard's Office

The steady and rapid development of
the Casa Grande Valley is evidenced
by the announcement in todays paper
OF the opening of a Casa Grande
branch by the Dwight B. Heard office
Mr.. Heard, who has spent several days
recently in careful study of the con-
uitlons in that section in company with
some Of the best posted and most con-
sentative men in the Florence and
Casa Grande districts, made the fol-
lowing statement yesterday:
In my judgment there exists in the
casa Grande Valley unusual opportu-
mites for successful farming develop
ment In what is known as the proven
pump water district. | was surprised
ON my trip ITO find so many evidences
Of thoroughly high class development
The soil is of exceptionally fine quail
lty, and the natural contour of the land
ideal for irrigation. Certain farms
have an assured gravity water supply
Other lands are being developed en-
tirely by pump water. The combina-
lion Of the two is, of course, ideal.
Good Roads Aid
The excellent roads in that district
are doing much to bring about its de-
velopment, and everywhere one sees
examples of fine permanent improve
ments, such as new pumping plants, fine
new homes, better fences, and an effort
to bring the land into the most perfect
condition for irrigation. The pumping
developments of the past few years
have shown that there is a very large
area in the Casa Grande valley where
from the underground water in the
Santa Cruz river there is the assur-
ance of unquestioned water supply Of
excellent quality for irrigation, lyins
at a depth of from S5 to so feet below
he surface.
For men who have money todeveloI
and bring their land into cultivation
without waiting for the time wher
reservoir water is available, this sec.
ton, in my opinion, offers a most de
sirable field for investment
Towns Are Developing
THE towns of Casa Grande ant
Florence are developing along strictly
modern lines and il is stimulating
thing TO see the new life and evidence.
of progress everywhere in these rapid,
growing little cities. The splendid typ,
Of the school buildings, and the excel
. lent developments going on in roads
are convincing proof of the prosperity
progress and excellent future of this
district.
II have become so convinced from
q careful personal inspection of tht
desirability of this section and it's as
sured prosperity that | have decided t.
open a Casa Grande Valley branch o
my business for the sale Of lands, eithel
with an assured gravity water supply
Or located in the proven pumping dis
trict This department will be in

In this state, has reputation for relia
hility, thoroughly understands farm
ing and irrigation problems. and is ex
