HERE is too much Jazz music d too much jazz life In the big town these days for the good of the young." said Mrs. Chapman, for mer president of the Portland council of the Parent-Teacher ' association, who gave an' interesting address at the last meeting of the District 45 association. "The city, with Its multiplicity of at tractions and distractions whose chief purpose is to thrill, and whose life is so largely reflected in cheap music cheap movies and the shoddy spec tacular generally, is not and cannot be the ideal habitat for the child." she continued. "Especially is this the case in the matter of amusements. "For wholesome entertainment of the young the small town, or the coun try school, is far better than the city. In the smaller centers there Is tal ent available always for all manner of amusement talent for which there need be no apology .and it Is gratify ing to note the present tendency to make greater use of it than was the case some years ago. "The co-operation of parents and teachers, the home and the school, is the object of the parent-teacher asso ciations, and at every meeting of the associations there should be a 100 per cent attendance of mothers. Much is being done in the way of com munity work by parents and teachers. with the schools as centers, but much remains to be done. The work now under way should be extended and the schools made in every way a bigger and better factor in the life of every community.

The state board of control at a meet ing today refused to grant the re quest of the state highway commis sion for the issuance of 81.000.000 worth of highway bonds. Mandamus proceedings will be instituted by the commission against the board of con trol to compel the granting of the request. The suit will test the Bean-Barrett law enacted by the 1917 legislature providing for the issuance of J1.S00. 000 worth of highway bonds to match federal aid for road construction in Oregon. Of the amount authorized. 81,200,000 already has been issued and the board of control holds that the granting of the request submitted to day would exceed the provisions of the law.. The highway commission contends that the Bean-Barrett law provided that the state should issue bonds to match federal aid. which since the passage of the bill has been increased, and that in consequence the state can incur bonded indebtedness in excess of the prescribed 81,800,000 up to the constitutional limitations of 2 per cent of the assessed valuation of the state, or 820.00,000. The bonded indebtedness thus far authorized is 817,800,000, leaving 82, 200,000 which may be authorized be fore reaching the limitation.
