Especial Correspondence TO The Journal,
Artesia, N. NJ, July pa new

listening to their conversation | heard
| Whispering Grineer make a statement
that they lived in Yam Hill, Oregon.
The name Yam Hill attracted my at
tention and the thought came to me,
"Why not investigate the Oregon
country" of which l had but a very
| limited knowledge. Consequently | ap-
preached the men who proved to be
farmers and were willing to ocon-
verse about Oregon.
| | asked them if there were any
schools in their neighborhood, and
they informed me that there were,
and that there was a vacancy in the
| Perkins district at that time and that
the trustees were looking for teach
er. They invited me to ride out
with them, informing me that they
allowed to start home that evening
with their teams and wagons which
were at the feed yard stating the To-
cality and telling me to take my lug
gage up there and place it in one of
time stated we started for Yam Hill,
driving up the canyon road to the
time stated we started for Yom Hill,
driving up the canyon doad to the
James place, a distance of three or
four miles, and camping there until
the following morning. During the
ensuing day we completed the jour-
ney to Yam Hill, and I was the
guests of one of my friends, man
named H. B. Mercer, originally from
Boston, Massachusetts.
The following morning | started cut
in quest of the trustees who were
looking for teacher. I observed that
they were farmers, and finding them
at their homes, contract was quick
ly made under which I was bound to
teach the Perkins school for term of
six months during which time l was
to board around with the pupils. Re
turning from the Perkins resident 4
spent the night with the other of
my newly made friends, whispering |
Griner" and during the evening hours
assisted him in marking lot of his |
calves and sheep, as the man whom
he had engaged to do that work had /
failed to arrive. |
The next morning | started to the
county seat of Lafayette, Yam Hill |
county, for the purpose of interview
ing the county superintendent of the |
schools and passing the required ex-
animation and obtaining certificate
A few days elapsed after being equip
ped with my certificate before the |
school term was to begin, and dur
ing this interim, I l visited the school |
mousse ana attempted 10 IHdhd IL d
little more habitable than it had
been. | found it was an unpainted,
wooden building with home made
desks and large iron stove to heat
the room The window light were
by II inches and many of them were /
broken. Mr.. Perkins, one of the trus-
tees, at whose house l was a guest /
before beginning my school work, was
about to start for Portland and l gave
him the money to buy some new
glass, few pictures to decorate the
walls, and as it CHANGED, there being
a patch of wild rose bushes short
distance above the school house, by
cutting quantity of these bushes {
that were in bloom at the time. I COW !
cred up the rusty stove and made
the room little more tenantable. s
