MRS
. W. S. STONER
PORTLAND VISITOR
Mother of Child Wonder Radi
ates Attractive and Inter-'
i: esting Personality.
PROGRAMME IS BUSY ONE
Author of Natural Education Be
lieves in Use of Rhyme and
Jingles as Memory Aid in
Teaching Children.
Life for ail the children of the land
will be one jolly rythmical round of
Jingles if Mrs. Winifred Sackvillo
Stoner has her way. Ko examinations
to scare boys and Bills to death,
shorter school nours, fewer pupils to a
teacher, training? for practical life
work, education of parents, these are
a. few of the important points that Mrs.
Stoner emphasizes.
The woman whose methods have
proved so successful in the education
of her own daughter arrived in Port
land yes.terda.v-. She will go to Cor
vallis today to speak for the delegates
at the state convention of the Oregon
Congress of Mothers and. Parent
Teacher Associations, who a'ro .meeting
this week in the college town. Tomor
row Mrs. stoner will speak in the Lin
coln High School for the teachers and
parents, and on Saturday morning she
will appear at a public meeting in the
Jfeilis Theater, where she will give a
talk and demonstration of her natural
educational principles. At noon on
.Saturday Mrs. Stoner will be a guest
or the Oregon Civic League at their
luncheon in the Hotel Multnomah.
Winffred. Jr., the wonder child, who
i?. at the age of 13, an author arnd a
linguist, is not with Mrs. Stoner. iSho
stayed in her home with her daddy,
and is enjoying athletics, play and
Itudy.
Personality la Radiated.
A noted educator has called Mrs.
Ktoner "the most wonderful woman tn
the world." A short visit with her
is all that, is needed to give perfect
understanding of this statement. The
Inventor of the magical method of
education has an abundance of person
ality. he radiates sunshine. Her col
oring is most attractive eyes that
sparkle, black hair, rosy cheeks.
She has something interesting and
original to say every moment. She
is enthusiastic over her work and
wants every mother in the country to
catch her enthusiasm.
Mrs. Stoner believes in fairies. In
fact, she is much like Peter Pan. for,
though so very wise, she will never
grow oip if growing up means to be
severe, and dictatorial, and old. She
would keep in the home the fairies
IjOV. Sympathy and Good Cheer. Ban
ished would be the demons Hurry,
"Worry and Fear, if she had her way.
't can't" would be unknown in a
child's vocabulary when referring to a
task, but "Til try" would be the words.
In her rooms at the Hotel Benson
yesterday, where she was interviewed,
she merrily demonstrated the manner
In which she uses the typewriter as a
means of learning - spelling, reading
and punctuation and in memorizing.
She made the machine serve as an in
strument of delightful accomplishment.
Jingles Serve Purpose.
The woman who has stirred the in
terest of all the leading educators of
the country, scores of whom have in
dorsed her, la a firm beaver in jingles.
"How do you recall the number of days
In each month?" she asks, and when the
reply, "Thirty days hath September."
etc., is made, she says: "Well, why
not remember other things in the same
manner?" Winifred, Jr.. the child who
knows so many languages and facts,
and is so strong physically, morally
and mentally, learned a large per
centage of her lessons in jingle.
"Languages should be taught in the j
natural metnod Deiore cnuaren are is
years of age," Mrs. Stoner contends.
Killing the child mind with beauti
ful thoughts and impressions in the
memory period, 5 to 12 years will, she
' believes, give him a good foundation
for reasoning.
Mrs. Stoner's five foundation stones
of education are education, intense in
terest, concentration, imitation and ex
ploration. She believes in seeking to
become educated tn the highest sense
through learning self-control and the
joy of service.
Mother Proud of Girl.
Proudly, with fondness and happi
ness, she showed a number of photo
graphs of her daughter. There was one
especially attractive picture of Wini
fred. Jr., sitting at a typewriter and
surrounded by a number of chubby,
interested youngsters, who show clearly
that they are getting the message that
Winifred Stoner, Jr., is handing down
to them. The child and her darkey
mammy, and the pet dog, and best big
doll, are shown in another photo. More
strenuous are the pictures showing the
young wonder enjoying a boxing match
with a professional boxer.
"Look at those muscles. Does she
look like a prodigy, all brains and no
physical strength? No, she is a natural
child and perfectly healthy," said the
another.
Mrs. Stoner has views that conflict
strongly with those of Mme. Monteserrt.
It was the little word "system" that
started the conversation along this line.
"System is all very well for Mme. Mon
tesorri." said Mrs. Stoner, "but sys
tem turns out not individuals, but
snusages." Training each child as an
individual, not as a class, is a hobby of
Mr8.Vtoner and she speaks in the high
est terms of praise of the efforts that
1 have been put forth along those lines
in Portland public schools.

LENIENCY PLAN HALTED
JIDGK REFUSES PLEA OF GCaTI
GOTTLIEB PLANNED TO ENTER.
District Attorney Not Averse to Parole,
Because of Bis Expense ef
Prevlnar Fer&rery.
After reading in yesterday's issue of
The Oregonian of the record of Leon
Paul Gottlieb, indicted for passing a
worthless check for J12. Circuit Judge
Gantenbein definitely refused a plea of
guilty which Gottlieb entered with a
view to obtaining a parole. The plea
had been tentatively refused by the
judge late the previous afternoon on
his statement that he desired to inves
tigate the case. Gottlieb has changed
his plea to not guilty.
District Attorney Evans, while not
recommending a, parole, was not ad
verse to it for two reasons, the first
being that the check was drawn on a
New York bank and it would be neces
sary to bring witnesses from there at
great expense , to the state to prove the
absence of a deposit. The other was
that criminal charges are pending
against Gottlieb in California on which
he probably could be prosecuted with
much less trouble and expense.
What - course now will be followed
with reference to Gottlieb is uncertain,
but he is certain to remain in jail for
a while anyway, is he is unable to fur
nish the bond Tequired. It is under
stood that Mrs. Gottlieb, nee Clara
Herschberger. the girl with whom he'
eloped to Oregon City and who lived
with him only a few days, is contem
plating action for divorce. Gottlieb's
conviction as a felon would give her
a ground to which he could offer no
defense.
HEK3Y FORD IS INVITED
Thomas Edison, Also Asked to Visit
City, Finds Stop Impossible.
The Portland branch factory of the
Ford Motor Company, through F. H.
Norman, manager, yesterday tele
graphed to Henry Ford at San Fran
cisco urging him to come to Portland
before returning East. In the same
telegram they invited Thomas Edison,
the wisard inventor, who is now' with
Mr. Ford at San Francisco.
Mr. Edison yesterday informed the
Chamber of Commerce that he would
be unable to include Portland on his
present itinerary, but the local Ford
officials are hopeful that Mr. Fori will
come to Portland to see his branch
here and the Columbia River Highway.
Robbing Companion Charged.--Charged
with fleecing a companion
of $. Max Maschner was arrested at
the corner of First and Davis streets
yesterday by Officers Wade and Mallon.
He is said to have gone through the
pockets of M. Seller in a saloon at
Second and Couch streets.
YOUTH ENDS OWN LIFE
Laundry Mark. Only Clew to Identity

With a email rope tied around the
neck and attached to an iron beam
overhead, the body of an unidentified
young man, well drssed and apparently
prosperous-, was found hanging in the
men's restroom in the Plaza block, on
Salmon street between Third and
Kourth streets, early yesterday morn
ing. The case was pronounced b
I'cnuty Coroner Smith to be clearly
one of suicide. The body was taken
to the public morgue and every effort
is being made to indetify it.

VOICE IS VERY LIFE
TO CAROLINA WHITE
Death Would Be Her Choice IE She Were Not Able to Sing, She Says, but
She Has Beauty Required by Movies.
BT LEONE CASS BAER. 1
CAROLINA wmiis says it anytning
would happen to her voice so that
she couldn't sing, she would want
to go away in some corner and die.
She is just that serious .about her art.
But If anything should happen to
that great big lovely voice, Ca-rolina
White could become one of the sensa
tions of thfc film world. She is an ex
purgated edition of Theda Bara, a
brunette Lillian tusseii, a, piump edi
tion of Cavalleiri (Lina not Kusticana).
All the time I talked to her i was
thinking that Nat Goodwin was clear
off his noodle when he said he had
married the loveliest women in the
world. He may have wed a. few of the
beauties, but he didn't capture Caro
lina White.
But she has been captured, matri
monially speaking, and her captor is
Paul Longene, a young, gooa-ioosans,
earnest and music-loving Italian, an
authority on opera, and a most inter
esting conversationalist. These two
have a lovely home in Italy, but they
were saddened at mention of it.
Paul Longone has two brothers at
the front, and two cousins lately killed,
Madame la Not Neutral.
Madame Carolina White is an Ameri
can, intensely loyal and proud of it,
but she is decidedly not a neutral in
the iuestion of war. Her husband's
people are truly her people.
"But it is for the mothers I care
most: all the mothers, not of one coun
try, but all countries. It is the women,
the mothers, who suffer."
The prima donna was not acting
when she said this. Her eyes big,
wonderful and brown looked across
thousands of miles to where they saw
the horrors whereof she spoke. It is
orte of the fascinations of her, this way
she has of mirroring her thoughts in
her eyes.
She likes vaudeville and the new
audiences it brings to her. She adores
even the monkeys when they happen
on a bill with her. and she is demo
cratic enough to please even C. E. S.
Wood. Everyone is Carolina White's
friend, from the littlest usher up the
line. She confesses to indolence, save
in her art, and her great passion la
literature.
"All day long I could read and far
Into the night," she says.
NetTa Explained to Husband.
I read 'all the news headlines, and
all sort of books. My husband reads
our American papers, too, and then I
have to explain them to him."
She laughed-wickedly at the remain
brance.
Madame White loves a social life, but
has no time for it.
"One must sacrifice all for art," she
says. "There is no halfway measure.
Domesticity, babies, society all the
things the soul of a woman craves must
be put away until the operatic career
Is over. They cannot oe mixed, witn
justice to either.
"I have sacrificed to art but

tifully. "We adore babies, she added,

She is psychic, and her friends call

"It's only audiences that call out
this psychic feeling." she eaya. "But it
is true, I can tell just how as audi

"I can feel the appreciation, with
out one bit of applause. I cap feel It if
even one person turns about in his

Madame says that the best thine: she
likes about vaudeville is that it has

"not merely the smartly dressed

Athletic aaa Garde Ground Also Are
Requested tn Resolution Adopt
ed by A Board.
Woodstock residents will ask the
Board of Education to complete the
present schoolhouse by the erection of
five or six rooms and an assembly ball
and the purchase of playgrounds, in
cluding a baseball diamond, a field for
football and for school gardens.
The request for these improvements
was embodied in resolutions adopted at
a mass meeting held at the schoolhouse
Tuesday night under the auspices of
the Woodstock Parent-Teacher Asso
ciation. The resolutions will be pre
sented to the Board by a committee.
According to the report of Principal
A. J. Prldeaux. the "Y oodstock pupils
occupy eight rooms in the new and
four rooms in the old structure, wnicn
is three blocks away, and a single port
able room. Appropriations have Deen
marie in former years for the comple
tion of the Woodstock building, said
the principal, but these have been cut
out.
The meeting was held in a classroom
on the lower floor, which was crowded
and verv uncomfortable. Fire Marshal
Stevens would not allow the use of the
hall on the upper floor, and he came in
for some severe criticism.

TODAY'S BEAUTY AIDS
To clear up and whiten the skin and
secure that charm of pink and white
youthful freshncs3 so much desired by
all women you will find it far safer to
rely upon a good face lotion rather
than powder. To get rid of that shiny'
and muddy appearance in your com
plexion, dissolve four ounces of spur
max in one-half pint hot water, and
add two teaspoontuls glycerin. Apply
this to your face, neck and arms, rub
bing gently until dry. This lotion does
not show or rub off like powder and
Is much better. It is splendid for re
moving tan, freckles, pimples and al
lowness. You can make a delightful shampoo
for a very trifling cost if you get from '
your druggist a package of canthrox
and dissolve a teaspoonful in a cup of
hot water. Tour a little at a time on
the scalp and rub briskly. This creates
an abundance of thick, white lather
that thoroughly dissolves and removes
all dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After
rinsing, the hair dries quickly, with a
fluffinees that makes it seem heavier
than it is, and takes on a rich lu?ter
and a softness that makes arranging it
a pleasure. Adv.
