have become accustomed to. That is
why The Argus feels called upon to
remind its readers that at the Nov
ember election there is a measure
for the relief OF the public library.
The reason for this measure is the
fact that the service of the library
has been more than doubled during
the past year and It Is the purpose
OF the board to further extend its
scope. The board wants the library
to be opened every day, as it should
be- and 1t must have an assistant
librarian at the building when the
county librarian is out in the coun-
try visiting the branches.

Americans, at least those OF one

many OF our most cherished lnsttu-
tlons. And that being true we dc
not want them to interfer with our
affairs.
This indeed they will do, II the
United States enters to league OF ma
tlons as at present constituted. II
the proponents OF the league OF ma
tlons are sincere in their statement
that the American Congress will be
the final Judge when our armies and
navy will be called upon to take part
in foreign war, why we're they not
willing that that very simple and
plain reservation to the league coven-
ant should be adopted?
That is the question: Until they
are willing TO admit that the consti-
tuition OF the United States shall re-
main the supreme guide for Ameri-
can conduct in foreign affairs we
want nothing whatever TO do with
the so called league OF nations.
To make that position perfectly
clear a president and n senate com
mltted to that definite policy is the
one hope OF the American people.
The Issue is clearly draw and there
should be no wabbling on that quos-
tlon. The battle must bt fought all
along tho line from the white House
TO the Senate chamber. Oregon's duty
80 far as republicans are concerned
Ia to return Republican senator;
while II the democratic contention il
to prevail. and II Ia the wish OF the
people OF oregon to enter the league
and follow the advise OF Governor
Cox, then democratic senator
should be the choice.
This question is so important that
Il transcends personalities. II Is a
decision OF American
policy We therefore urge our read
PRS TO make plain their decision and
either vote republican president
md a republican senator or a demo
'ratIc president and democratic
'enator. No other vote can. in this
ampaign be deemed logical one.

The compromises made at a meetinp
In Portland is a delusion. The In

~ while ostenslbly protected. are In
fact as much In JcoJardy az they were
with the original Finley bill.
The people OF Oregon should go
slow In ceding land TO the federal
government. What happened IN the
Klamath lake controversy when the
state gave the federal officials juris-
dlctlon over the waters OF Klamth
lake?
As Senator Chamberlain said IN
telling or this deal: tho we thot we
had the rights OF the people OF Ore

the rulings OF the fadlsts In Wash

the rights we thot protected have
been ignored.

Tho the terms OF the bill designate
the limits OF the grant for the bird
reserve, when some fanatic like Fin
ley gets into a deputy-clerkship OF
some kind back in Washington and
makes a ruling that the waters OF
the lake include the tributary
streams as we'll. where will the peo-
pie OF Harvey county get water with
which TO irrigate their lands?
The red tape and bureaucratic
practices OF the federal officials are
too we'll known to take chances with.
rhe only safe course for the people
1f Oregon is to vote NO on the bird
reserve bill and be assured that Har-
hey county will be permitted to pro-

under consideration reduces the max
imum contract itereset rate to 5et

lege preparatory course is maintain
ed. with course in Domestic
Science and Sewing. If the num-
Der of students increase enough to
warrant it. the course of study will
be broadened out to include all of
the needs Of the Haxtun community
There are five instructors in the
Branch School, which together with
the instructors in the Main School
make a total of fifteen members in
the faculty, as compared with four
three years ago. Every effort is
made to keep the Branch School
courses up to the same standard as
those maintained in the Main
School.
An exceptionally high grade of
teachers was obtained for this year,
remarkable thing, since the scar
city of teachers has become so acute
All of the teachers meet the require
ments of the North Central Associa
ton. There is only one teacher in
the whole faculty, who has not had
previous experience in teaching, and
she comes with the best kind Of
training from our State University.
In the last three years we have
done everyething in our power to
bring the school up to the standard.
We hope when the State High School
visitor comes, that he will be able
to rate us well up in the list of ac-
credited High Schools. They rate
on the basis of 1000 points, spread
out over the Course of Study, dis
cipline, teachers, school board and
spirit in the community. That is,
school that has perfect faculty,
as far as training and educational
requirements are concerned, re-
ceives total of $50 points. A per
feet student body, including the at
tendance, class distribution, physi-
cal welfare, moral and intellectual,
receives $50 points. When super
vision is perfect, the school receives
100 points. Perfect financial sup
port receives 100 points. A perfect
course of study receives 100 points.
When the school maintains outside
Glasses in vocational work it re-
ceives 100 points. Points are also
given in perfect work in the CONNER
cial Department, and the work the

The people who board at the
Dormitory pay enough to defray the
costs. Mrs Robb and l have

obvious that We cannot do it alone
and since We receive no compensa-
tion, we are able to secure the help
Of the teachers in managing the
building. Each teacher acts for
one weeks time us receptress, and
for that week is responsible for the
order in the building. The students
are required to be in their rooms at
1880. They are permitted to have
one night off during the week, with
out question. Mr. and Mrs George
Gasaway are employed to look after
the dining room and kitchen, togeth
er with other odd jobs.
This fall, We installed modern
Burroughs' Bookkeeping machine
instruction purposes in our CONNER
cial Department. This machine is
so constructed that it will take care
Of Commercial and Banking forms.
In order to make the course practi.
cal, We had commercial forms print
ed for the High School. All Of our
financial records are handled on
this machine. A journal is kept by
the Superintendent, then the Com
mercial Department takes the jour
nal at night, posts all items with it
for the Dormitory, the High school,
all warrants which are written for
any purpose, and records them by
the use of this machine, under the
various heads. These accounts are
handled by several different people,
so they are Mt all times open for
the inspection Of the public. This
work gives the Commercial Depart
ment actual business experience. We
also have n Multigraph and n Min.

are kept busy most of the time
