This year's ball will be notable for two features, the excellent supper that will be supplied by the consignors to the exchange, which assures a delicious menu, and the music. The music is a SDecial privilege, granted by the man- J agement of the Multnomah Hotel, be- cause of their interest in the work of I the exchange. They, for the first time. - have given their consent to permit the z entire orchestra from the grill to play for the dancers. This orchestra is prob 1 ably the most popular in Portland : with the dance contingent, and the fact '; that the annual charity ball will have this wonderful music proclaims a large attendance. Portland folk are becom-' : ing critical about dance music, the "jas" music which is so popular Jn the ; Eastern cities not yet having found a '! vast amount of enthusiastic devotees - In Portland's society circles. !

The thermometer is high and the barometer Is decidedly low. As the forecaster would say: "Air close, weather threatening, with probability of frequent thunder showers." On such days we have with as "the terrible-tempered Mr. Bang." and we should look for "the outbursts of Ev erett True." We generally know early In the morning what Is coming. The children snap at each other like young dogs, somebody starts crying before break fast, and It is not long before you hear a crash, which shows that some cher ished object has been thrown or has fallen to its ruin. We grown-ups look at each other . significantly . and re mark: T guess we're in for it." These are morally muggy days and we dread them. "Bright the Coraer Where Tea Are." We need not dwell long on the causes. They are generally one or two: Fatigue or disappointment. The day after the party or picnic or the rainy Saturday are examples of each. I suggest as the only cure-all. this: Have an extra. Sunday. Sunday means rest and brightness. These are what the children need. ' First, for brightness. Unless the weather Is impossibly hot, make It literal brightness. Build the open fire FREE2 i Battleship Pennants of All Nations With 10c Remember, small Pennants returned to you the prize you lOc One of a set of 72 Battleship Pennant is wrapped daily with each loaf of 10c Luxury Bread the best Bread value on the market.

NEW YORK BAKERY, 441 I lng Instead of waiting until evening. Turn on the electricity r send out for candles. Hang a prism in the window to refract whatever sunlight there Is. Invite Harold to sit by the window with your toilet mirror and throw flashes of light across the room. Give the children some symbolical sunshine. Wind up the phonograph for the liveliest dance tune it holds. Start "Brighten the Corner Where You Are" or "Let a Little Sunshine In" as a family chorus at the breakfast table. Get out the brightest-colored picture books and send Marian around the cor ner for some red paper and gilt paint to play with. Mother Making Snnahlae. This Is all sane psychology. It Is simply doing what William James used to advise, "giving reasonable Ideas a hearing." It Is built upon the Idea that not only do we laugh because we are glad but we are glad because we Insist on laughing. If you can once get the children to laughing heartily It will at once clear the air. As the children grow older they ought to co-operate with mother when she starts In to work for fair weather. One mother used to hang out this sign on mornings or .disappointment or worry: The dog Is In the pantry. The cat In th. lake. The cow Is In the hammock What difference doea it make? This was taken as a signal by all who were true sports that mother was not to be left alone In making sun shine, and it was the immediate duty Of each to start to play the game which consists In making everybody else laugh out loud. Snarareatloiia for Reatfal Play. Since the muggy days usually are be cause of fatigue, they suggest the need of play that is Sundayish restful. The child Is be treated as a convalescent. not as a sinner, ir the mother has a "Sunday box" of special toys and books she might make an exception by bringing it out and openly declare that she is creating an additional Sunday. If the unrest Is because the children are confined by the rain, and tease to go out and play In the mud and water, let two sensational suggestions be of fered, which work. Get some cleanish mud from a vacant lot and dump it one a sheet of oilcloth on the kitchen floor. Fill the bathtub with ' warm water and Install a temporary ocean. Mud and water are excellent play things, if the children's clothes are protected. A fine sunshine-play Is the blowing of soap bubbles. Get out the woolen shawl or a blanket, so the children can make the bubbles bound on it. Tour own Ingenuity will serve you. This is the day to repaper the doll house, to rummage the piece-bag to make dolls out of peanuts or buttons, to play tumbeline, to make scrapbooks for sick children all sunny and funny things and restful, too. Yes, you can change the household weather, mother magician. If you try. Long before night the forecaster will put out this bulletin: "Clearing weath er, fresh breezes, and fair tomorrow." The Perpetaal Interrupter. To- he Kdltor Marie annoys ma ao much by foreaklng' into converaatlon. Thia ocaura both when we are alone and when we have company. I have reproved her for It over and over, but she forseta and growl no better. ECLALIE R. The method of repression does not pay. School teachers tell me that the greatest trouble they have with young children Is to get them to talk. One teacher said to me the other day: "Don't parents ever allow their chil dren to speak when they are at home? They are almost tongue-tied when we get them at school." I am eonvlnced that It Is most important to persuade children that they may be sure of a chance to speak and to be listened to. What happens Is often this: They have such a small range of observation that their conversation Is not interesting, and so we elders let it come in at one ear and go out of the other without giving them any real attention. We interrupt them without compunction and force them to tell things over sim ply because we did not hear the first time. Their exasperarlngly high voices are often due to the earnest desire to be attended to, even a the cost of try ing to drown the heavier voices of those who are older. I would often at table play the game of "Taking Turns." during which the family shall agree to listen pleasantly to the little folks. I would set apart times when they may come to you and talk confidentially without Interruption. I would try to help make their own talk more worth i while by suggesting matters more worth-while for them to Investigate. Soon. I am sure, you can train Marie to come quietly to your side and wait there until there Is a pause in the con versation or you give her permission to speak. Shall We Eneonrage Practical Joker T To the Editor Fred haa ot In the way of preparing practical jokea. H. often xnakea the reat of th. family very uncomfortable. Is there any way to get him out of this habit? . THOMAS F. I would be thankful- that Fred has a sense of humor. It Is a rare gift. But I would seek for more comforting Ctiethods for its exercise. Your letter ells me that Fred is 10, which makes me think that he is suffering chiefly from excess of animal spirits. I would see that his time when he is about the house is filled with play and work. Explain to him that it Is just as funny to play a joke that affords pleasure to all as to him alone. Insist that if he indulges In the other kind you have a few "practical Jokes" of your own In store that you would like to try on him. Tl en select such tasks as bring lng In the coal, cleaning up the eel 1 1 gSf grW1 irr7r 'BREAD lOc BELMONT STREET lar. etc.". and assign him to them when- ever he has done anything that h caused annoyance to others. Make the treatment positive all the way through. Don t punish him by confinement or forced idleness. Co-operate with him in getting up surprises that will give pleasure to the rest of the household and take him In on all plans for family festivals. BETTER COLLECTIONS AIM Auditor Barbur Wants Deferred Fines Listed as City Debts. City Commissioner Bigelow may be come sponsor for a .city .ordnance which has been recommended by City Auditor Barbur changing the system of handling installment fines in the Mu nicipal Court and placing the Municipal Judge under bond. Auditor Barbur's report covering the lax methods now existing In the court system will be before the Council tomorrow morning and will be referred to Commissioner Bigelow. Auditor Barbur after a detailed In vestigation of the financial end of the court system has reported that only a small part of the installment fines im posed by the court are collected. He says there is no apparent effort made to check up on the installments or to force payment. He has recommenced that the fines which when Imposed be come a debt payable to the city, be col lected by the Auditor's office the same as other municipal debts. By this means the Installments can be followed up carefully. ALCOHOL LAW IS DESIRED City Ordinance Deferred Pending State Action to Curb Sale. The question of regulating the sale of ethyl alcohol will be left by the City Council to the State Legislature, now In- session. Proposed ordinances to curb the sale of the intoxicant were laid on the table yesterday until thj Legislature haa had a whack at the subject. Pressing demands for local legisla tion to prevent sale of the stuff have been made on the Council by various persons and organizations and an In vestigation of the proper course has been made. It is thought by the Coun cil now that a state law might be bet ter than a city ordinance. After the Legislature finishes with the subject the Council may enact local legisla tion to supplement the state law. PAVING IS ACCEPTED Payment to Contractor for Capitol Highway Job Ordered.
