IV. V. Ilerron, in Charge of New
Commercial School In Sliattnck
Building, Wants Salary In
creased to $200 a Month.
At a meeting of the Board of Edu-
cation yesterday the city of Portland
was awarded the contract for furnish
in? the majority of the city schools
witn wood for the coming year. Al
though the city did not meet the re
quirements provided for in the speci
fications, there was an alternate bid
that allowed the city tender to be con
sidered favorably.
The city's bid for furnishing the
wood was accepted in only those cases
where the next lowest figure was
more than 5 per cent in excess of the
city's bid. Considering that a 5 per
cent depreciation had occurred in the
wood offered by the city because it
had been cut for a longer time than
called for in the specifications, the bid
of trie city in most instances was still
the lowest and accepted under those
terms.
More than 2000 cords are to be fur
nished the district by the city of Port
land, and the wood is to be hauled
from the city yards in Linnton. The
average price per cord ranged in the
neighborhood of $4.30.
r Wood for the schools that the city
will not supply will be furnished by
O-. K. Howitt, Joe Meindl, Red Ash
Coal & Ice Company and the Union
Fuel Company.
New Pupils Admitted.
Twenty-six pupils were admitted to
the various high schools upon the rec
ommendation of the City Superintend
ent, in accordance with the law re
garding tuition.
The board accepted the recommen
dation of the district's attorney and
refused to acknowledge liability in the
case of the Misses Aura Stitt and Kthel
Wheeler, who were injured .by icicles
falling from the roof of the Jefferson
lliprh School.
Tho board approved the contract of
H. W. Hopkins for the improvement
of tho Sunnyside School grounds for
1150.
Chairman Munly objected to the
board entering any complaint against
K. a. Wright, whose car collided with
the district car, driven by Robert
Krohn, and who evidently admitted
his liability, but refused to pay. The
damage done amounted to only ?S.63
and Mr. Munly declared the amount
to be to small to proceed with legal
action. His view 'was shared by the
other members present.
Miss Ruth Pringle was granted a
year's leave of absence, beginning with
the Fall term'of this year, to take ad
vanced work at Cambridge.
Committee to Pass on Salary.
The request of Miss Esther Wuest,
rt supervisor, for leave on pay to
attend the convention of the Western
Drawing and Manual Training Asso
ciation at Grand Rapids May 3-6 was
referred to the teachers' committee, as
was also the request of H. W. Herron,
who is in charge of the new Commer
cial High School in the Shattuck build
ing, for an increase in salary from
160 to 200 a month.
A communication signed by Hyland
Bros, and a number of other book deal
ers objecting to the sale of school
books within the school buildings was
referred to the judiciary committee.
W. A. Norton was confirmed by the
Board as tho assistant garden super
visor, with a salary of JSO a month
for a period of four months.
The rules governing the hiring of
substitute teachers were revised to
read: "Any substitute teacher working
continuously in a position for a longer
period than four weeks shall receive
the regular salary of a substitute
teacher for the first four weeks and
for the time thereafter in this position

ing Henry Walthall and Edna Mayo,
while on Thursday will be inaugurated
series of return engagements of "a
number of the most popular Paramount
releases.
The Paramount franchise held by the
Peoples Amusement Company calls for
two films a week, which means that to
screen a big production for a week one
feature must be shelved. The manage
ment has adopted a policy giving its
patrons an opportunity to witness all
f the Paramount stars, but thie has re
ulted in manv demands for longer en
gagements or re-engagements. To meet
these demands a number of the big
Paramount hits have been secured for
the Pickford, to be run each week com
mencing Thursday.
The opening Paramount production
will be "The Prince and the Pauper,"
with Marguerite Clark. This will be
followed by nearly a dozen films, in
cluding "The Cheat." with Fannie
Ward; "The Dawn of Tomorrow," Mary
Pickford; "Temptation," Geraldine Far

Majestic.
"Little Mary Sunshine,"
the latest
Majestic offering, is a film of which any I
roducer might be proud. It is one o
r I
those unusual productions of laughter
and pathos, with a tender sympathy
and appeal which attracts young and
Id. Baby Marie Osborne, a chubby
little lass of few years, is introduced
s a leading lady and the way she tugs
at the heart strings, romping through
five reels of sunshine, entitles her to a
niche in the hall of fildom fame.
'Little Mary Sunshine" ie one of those
once on a time butterflies through
whose gauzy wings life is seen in rare
and delightful tints. She is assisted by
bear which drinks from a hose,
ances, empties a bottle of milk down
its throat, eats at table, takes a bath
in a regulation tub, and otherwise gives
tar support.
The story of "Little Mary Sunshine"
first shows little Mary in a slum en
vironment. Her drunken father causes
the death of a weak-hearted mother,
runs away, and the child is left alone.
She starts out to find her mother, who
has gone to heaven," creeps into an
automobile when tired and thus finds
home. Little Mary assists in
reconciliation of lovers, and so lavishly
distributes sunshine that her world
radiates happiness
A war-argument comedy. "The Bat

tive programme.
Peoples.
'To Have and to Hold." given its
initial ecreening yesterday at the Peo
ples, is one of those superatively-de-scribed
productiops, just about the
height of film perfection, which belong
in a selected list of the screens best.
It is a lavish and spectacular picture,
with an immense personal and romantic
Interest. The etory is clear and thrill
ing, the costumes are elaborate, and
there is a star, and a real one Mae
Murray while the support. Including
Wallace Reid. Tom Forman and Ronald
Bradbury, the former an ex-Portlander,
is fully up to the high Lasky standard
of excellence.
Mary Johnston's famous novel of the
name, a romantic-historical . story of
early Virginia, does not suffer at the
hands of the film producers. The story
is full of adventure and overruns with
attractive romance, the sword play of
those alluring days, with the pirates,
disgraceful favorites of kings, etc,
presented with all of the glamour of
the period.
As the high-spirited Lady Joselvn
Leigh, Miss Murray, the "Nell Brink
ley Girl," is one of the moet attractive
and appealing actresses recruited from
the stage. She flees her native coun
try to escape marriage with a man she
detests, and marries Captain Ralph
Percy (Reid) as the best of a scurvy
lot of suitors. He falls In love with
her, fights valiantly against the king's
favorite, the girl discovering at the last
that she is in love with the man she
married for convenience.
A Bray cartoon, "Miss Nannie Goat,
the Aviator," is a fitting addition to a
splendid MIL
Columbia.
Music drama, and comedy divide hon
ors, in the order named, on the week
end Columbia bill. House attendance
records continue in force. The Royal
Guatamalan Marimba Band scores
heavily with "The Anvil Chorus." a
one-step just being published, "and
Guatamalan airs,' while Professor Met
calfe, the new organist, plays from
"The Only Girl." Bessie Barriscale,
star of many strong Triangle offerings,
interprets with her usual finesse the
role of a stage star who is capable of
a great sacrifice in "The Last Act."
while Ford Sterling and his Keystone
coppers are presented in "His Pride and
Shame," a mirthful affair of peril and
plot. ,
"The Last Act" is a photodrama of
uncommon strength. Miss Barriscale
depicts the character of a "down-and-out"
actress who ia befriended, by a
Mrs. Hale, charitable wife of a lawyer.
The girl finally gets a theatrical posi
tion, is understudy, and when the star
meets with an accident, another name
is added to the list of stage luminaries.
Hale meets the actress, falls in love
with her, and has persuaded her to
elope when the identity of Mrs. Hale is
disclosed. The etar sacrifices her own
love for the man and brings the couple
together.
"His Pride and Shame" is surely one
of Sterling's best.' The pride, and like
wise shame, is a son who wears a wrist
watch, dainty sleeve-handkerchief, and
specializes in dance-athletics. Sterling
ie the chief of police and plans to marry
the pride to the Mayor's daughter. The
plan meets with poor success until the
youth rescues the girl from a burning
skyscraper. Much powder and a dizzy
aerial flight enter into the affair be
fore the shame once more becomes the
pride.

Captain Owen. "When we got to sea
they seemed to regard, it as a pleasurs

a revolver on me, so I shot him in the

while I had the upper hand, I deter

We reached the mouth of the Toro-
