10 ' THE MORNING OREGOXIAy, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1909. SCHOOLS' OPENING SHOWS INCREASE Four Buildings Not Yet Open, but Attendance on First Day Is 16,764. - 1800 MORE ARE ESTIMATED Bnitt-rintendent Klftler Announce Stephens School Will Open Today, but Three Others Are Held TTp for Heating Apparatus. Despite the fact that four of the city schools did not open yesterday, owing to the fact that heating plants have not as yet been Installed, the record of attendance fpr the open ing day was greater than that of last year. Superintendent Rigler figures on an attendance of about 1800 In the four schools which are to open In a few days and the totals of yesterday are thought to have held down almost that number on account of the late opening. Uhe total number registered yester day was 16,764, with one report from a small school, Fernwood. not yet re ceived.' as opposed to 16.580 for 190S and 15.971 for the opening day of 1907. Superintendent Rigler definitely an nounced yesterday afternoon the Ste phens school would be opened tomor row. Until the heating fans are in stalled in the Davis, Eliot and Vernon schools, these will not be opened. By the end of the first week of school in September. 1908. the attendance was 17.752. and Superintendent Rigler ex pects this figure to be passed by about :000 by the end of this week, provided the heating fans arrive and the schools ma v be opened. One factor which was noticeable in the outlying districts was a falling away In the attendandce for" the opening day, due doubtless to the late hop-picking season this year. Many children are still in the fields. The three high schools show a gain this year of 205 for the opening day. Of tVts increase. 165 appear in the Jef fersH High School, which was not ripen at the start of last season. The September opening records for the last five years are as follows: 1905, 12.780; 3906. 13.954: 1907. 15.971; 190S. 16.5S0; 1909. 16.764.

FIREMAN WANTS RING BACK Declares Telephone Girl He ioves Has Grown Cold. As a result of his misplaced affec tions, Ira Fitzgerald, a member of the Portland fire department, has brought a replevin action to recover a diamond Ting, valued at oa. from Helen Knowles. a "hello girl" at the central board of the Pacific Telephone & Tele graph Company. The couple met a year ago, with the subsequent passing of the token of their engagement. Recently Helen's affections failed to evince the usual de gree of warmth. Ira, It Is said, en deavored to effect a reconciliation. His failure to bring about an amicable set tlement with his fiancee resulted in Kitzgerald's appeal to Constable Wag ner's office. When approached by Chief Deputy Kiernan, the pretty 'hello" girl refused to surrender the ring she wore. Kiernan was In duty bound to allow It to remain on her finger. He Is now wondering whether or no she will keep her promise to "fix it up with Ira" without the aid of the law TMilrht. Twice Tomorrow William A. Brady and Joseph K.

OAK STREET IN ABEYANCE Mayor May or May Not Approve Ex tension of Thoroughfare. Oak street may be opened from Park to Eleventh street, and lt may not be opened. Although an ordinance for opening the street has passed the Coun cil, there Is some doubt as to whether Mayor Simon will approve the ordi nance, which calls for the expenditure of $177,304, which will have to be assessed against the property in that vicinity and along Oak street clear to the river. Mayor Simon "went out on an inspec tion of the proposition yesterday after noon with Councilmen Belding and Wallace. The former opposes the plan strongly, believing the money necessary for the Improvement is too great for the good to be derived by the property owners. Councilman Wallace, on the other hand, favors the plan, thinking the street will have to be opened at some time, and that it can be done cheaper now than at any other time. The property which will have to be cut through Is all Improved, although the buildings are mostly old frame structures which amount to but little in the total reckoning. The damages assessed against the city for this work amount to J223.594. but return damages against the properties affected bring this figure to $177,304. Mayor Simon was entirely non committal as to the stand he would take in the matter. He stated that the inspection committee was made up of two members, who would place both sides of the question before him and that he would make.his decision after going Into the facts Thoroughly.

I III z , The Addition with Character Visited by the Portland Realty Board On Saturday last the Portland Realty Board and friends of the mem bers, some 400 strong, visited LAURELHUBST and enjoyed the afternoon in viewing this magnificent addition. All of the visitors were enthusiastic in their admiration of the beauties of this splendid tract of land, consisting of 442 acres, of which every acre is a good acre and every lot a good lot. The visitors admired particularly the beautiful rolling land, with its un dulating surface, the natural beauties of which have been preserved by lay ing out the streets in curved lines following the natural contours and mak ing the whole addition a matchless residence park. Every expression of the visitors was an expression of approval or en thusiastic admiration. Every prediction was a prediction of unqualified suc cess in the development of this property into a most delightful residence section, and the universal opinion heard expressed was that the property values in this addition would more than double in the next year. Everybody in Portland knows the location of LAURELHURST, which for many years has been known as the Ladd "Hazel Fern Farm," lying in the heart of the East Side residence section, extending from the Base Line road on the south to the Sandy road on the north. Almost everybody has passed by this tract on one side or the other, but' up to the present time very few have passed through it, because it has been private property. LAURELHURST is now open to the public, the plat has been filed, the streets have been dedicated. Everyone is privileged to go and view the. property, to enjoy its beaiities, to visit the splendid tract of 31 acres just purchased by the city for a public park, which is covered by a wonderful growth of immense forest trees, many of which are between two and three centuries old. This park was purchased expressly to preserve this natural exhibit of the forestry of Oregon, the like of which could not be repro duced in 200 years. It is worth while to visit LAURELHURST, and it only takes 15 min utes to go there on- either the Rose City or the Montavilla carlines. Both lines run through the addition. If you have not seen LAURELHURST, do so today. Then investigate our prices and terms. You will find that they are very reasonable. Office on the ground at iast ecurelhvinyf 522-526 Corbett Bldg.

MUCH WORK IS PLANNED Endowment to Be tfsed to Make Portland Center of Artistic and Scientific Education of North west Buildings Projected. Preliminary to carrying out the in tent of the $1, 000, 000 beqaegt for the foundation of the "Reed Institute" in this city, the Board of Trustees of the coming seat of learning is seeking ex pert advice from some of the most prominent and influential instructors in the country. At the present time, at the instance and Invitation of the Board, Dr. Wal lace Buttrick, of New York City, is visiting Portland in the general inter est of education and more especially to confer with the trustees regarding the specific principles and form In which It is thought beat to initiate the work of the institute. Dr. Buttrick - Is secretary of the General Board of Education which Is administering the endowment of JB0, 000,000. from John D. Rockfeller. rr. Buttrick's visit was preceded about three weeks by that jf Dr. H. S. Prltchett, of Che Carnegie Founda tion for the Advancement of Teaching, who, while in the- city, frequently con ferred with the trustees, and gave them valuable advice and counsel. President Judson, of the University of Chicago, during his attendance on the National Baptist Convention in Port land, also conferred with the trustees. Portland to Become Center. These men are all convinced that Portland may become the greatest edu cational center in the Northwest by what may be accomplished by institu tions such as the Reed Institute. In speaking yesterday of the Reed J Institute, C. A. Dolph, one of the trus tees, said the errorts or me Doara wr now directed almost wholly toward de termining . the basic principles on which the Institute shall b founded. It is desired that the work of the In stitute shall not duplicate efforts now being undertaken by the Y. M. C. A,, and the various slate institutions. Dr. Buttrick yesterday inspected the new Y. M. C. A. building and gained knowledge of the broad scope of the work that Institution is now about to attempt. Today he will go to Eugene to visit the Stata University, and will also investi gate thoroughly the educational ad vantages offered by Oregon in other sections. The General Board of Education has the United States as a field of operations and among its work is the reaching of 20.000 farmers In the South in the mat ter of educating them in practical agri culture. The staff of the office conducts a research work, and maps and tabu lates every state in tha Union with a Tnirty - eignui srreei. Co. JSSst& view' to ascertaining real conditions and needs so far as possible, both guiding and promoting educational betterments. Dr. Buttrick. to Advise. Dr. Buttrick's visit is therefore of ad vantage to the General Board of Edu cation as well as furnishing him infor mation from which he An advise the trustees of the Reed Institute. "In a work of this kind, preliminary investigation into the actual educational needs of the state is a matter of first Importance." said Mr. Dolph yesterday. "We are endeavoring to proceed system atically with a view to obtaining the greatest possible benefits from the be quest to the Institute." In reply to a question, Mr. Dolph said the trustees had not yet selected a head for the Institute, although the board hod been In correspondence with several men of educational prominence. While no definite plans, have been formulated, it is likely new and substantial buildings will be required on the site of the In stitute. The bequest of $1,000,000 for the en dowment of an educational institute in Portland was made in the wills of Sim eon G. and Amanda Reed. The endow ment Is broad In scope and might be applied to manual training, galleries of art, technical, scientific instruction and other fields of education. It is said the investigations of the trustees have shown that the field of Industrial Instruction is quite well covered in Oregon and that the main purpose of the Institute when established will likely be to advance art, and .surgical, medical and other sciences In a specialized form, giving the patron3 of the Institute instruction now obtain able in the West only from books and li braries. The trustees of the Institute are C. A. Dolph, Dr. T. I Eliot, W. P. Olds, Mar tin Winch and Judge C. E. Wolverton. DAILY METEOROLOGICAL, REPORT. PORTLAND, Bept. 13.
