Chats With Parents ; : CAlidHT Ity A"(HJ Jtnhun Peul In the park whero a certain little hoy and his mother often went walk ing stood a totem pole. It was as tall as a tall tree and carved and colored with hideous, fantastic figures. Thf little boy always stood still a long while before It nnd regarded It with the moat Intel wo absorption, taking care to keep tight hold of mother's hand the while. . For a long time she exploited thl3 thrilling mixture of fear and fascina tion by telling him. whoncver he was naughty, that the terrible men and horrible, grluulng monsters from the totem pole would come and got htm If he would nqt tramedtately bo have. But ono day not long after his rourth birthday whon again she used the old t brent he turned to her and said, "Mother, you mint be stupid If you belle vo that those awful things Oau como and get mo. They'ro only made of wood. They can't como down from the pole. And the pole Is stuck tight In the earth." A little later he said quite thought fully. "Mother, you know yourself they. can't como get me. You were Just always lying tg me." Thla mother s position was not en viable. Do you ever give your ohlld the opportunity to put you in a aim tlr one?.

The law provides that the county superintendent in apportioning the county school fund shall first apportion $100 to cueh dis trict that reports according to law. after which the county school fund shall be apportioned on the basis of the school census. A' (rlendly rivalry has developed among the various school officials, through the fact that the names of the first twenty clerks who shall re port, arc to be published on a certain roil of honor. Following is a list Summers Getting Dry? NoSays Expert Many persons arc convinced that the weather. In piogan Is changing, and that the summers arc letting drier than thoy used to be. Official weatner figures checked by Arthur King. soil:, specialist at tho Oregon Stuto collcgu extension service, do not bear this out, however. In fact he has found that In the GO years that records have been kept at Portland only two "wet" summers occur. ud in the first 30 yoars while there wero six in tho last so. It seems that our 'unusually dry sununers- orcurrea just- as on en in about every year, and there Is every nuuiiv fvviy yuui, iniu biiviu is tvfiry ronson to believe they will-continue that way," says Mr. King.
