That Oregon school children are both taller and heavier than eastern children ia one of the discoveries made by Giles M Kuch, former instructor in the school of education, in Intelligence and achievement tests given 135 pupils o the University of Oregon campus high school. In a comparison with a num her of similar studies in eastern cities Mr. Ruch also concluded that thel vital index, a ratio between lung capacity and height and weight, i superior to that of eastern children " That intelligence and achievemen tests are a better criterion of pupils' grade standing than the teachers' es timate, is another of Mr. Ruch's con elusions. In this survey both physi cai ana mental measurements com blned with all the best known tests were used. The result of general in telllgence tests agree with the teach ers- estimates in about three-fourth of the cases. Mr. Ruch believes these tests give children of certain tern peraments a better standing than th usual method employed by teachers lie thinks if the tests were given the beginning of the year the pupil would be better understood by teach ers and superintendents, and some the evilS of lock-step promotion would Be eliminated.

" '' A . BETTER BOOKS YOUTHS H-ibrarian for Boy Scouts Says Problem Is Real. MOST READING HARMFUL Parent-Teacher Convention In dorses Thrift, State School for Girls and Welfare Measures. A resume of some of the principal interests of the Parent-Teacher rcles of the state, in" the torm oi eports of the various committees of the association constituted the lead ing business at yesterday's session of the state convention which closes today. - X. Such subjects as public health. kindergartens, pre-school age work, educational aspects of social hygiene and Chautauqua work and extension were some of the matters discussed during the morning and afternoon. The problem of providing tne right sort of reading material for the boys of this country? was presented at the afternoon session by Jr. . iv. Mathiews of New York, national li brarian for the Boy Scouts of Amer ica. - ' The most eloquent plea for better books I have ever heard," was ,the way Mrs. C. W. Hayhurst, president of the association, spoke of his ad dress, in thanking him for 'talking to the delegates. Readlnsr Boy's Indoor Sport. The average boy is likely to spend more time in recreational reading than In any other diversion," said Mr. Mathiews. "The boy has his games, which he plays heartily, but when he goes home, he turns to- his recreational reading, whicb. is his Indoor sport. I ' When we are considering what the modern boy reads, we are facing a very real problem." The former "nickel thriller" has been replaced by a book which is clothed in'more respectable binding, said the speaker, but which fs the same sort of "pernicious literature." Today the 'nickel thriller" is pur chased for the boy by his mother and he reads it in the bosom of his family to his heart's content," said Mr. Mathiews. "No more does he need to sneak behind the barn to read such book or hide it behind bis geog- graphy. Type of Book Pernicious. "I think the type of book which Is being sold so widely is pernicious, not. because of its gross ethics, but be cause of its gross exaggerations. We don't want our children associated with lies and yet that is what we are doing when we allow them to read such books. "The thing at stake is the boy's imagination. It is like exercising on a rotten piece of apparatus In a gym nasium. 1 am not here to tell you that when he reads this sort of book he is going to jail or will be a crim- nal. I am telling you that this Is a wicked type of book, because it gets in the way of the better, finer things in the boy's nature." The trouble. Mr. Mathiews explained, Is not "behind, but in front of the book store counter," because, he said, mothers and Sunday school teachers k for these books 'of adventure "series," which are filled with exag gerations of all kinds. Mr. Mathiews' appeal was to the v members of the association to buy more carefully for tneir children s reading. Measures Are Indorsed.

"Proc tor had seen the old trapper come Into Pendle'ton where the sculptor was living at that time and, moved by the impulse to ereate a likeness of the western type so truly depicted, began his work "An 'Indian figure Is being modeled by Proctor for they geyser basin of Saratoga State park, at Saratoga, New York. It Is that of an Indian bending over a stream from which he is dipping a handful of water. The model is Chief Beaver, a Blackfoot, whom Proctor brought to New York," says Peixotte.
