HOME SCIENCE SCHOOL
COUHSES OF STUDY OUTLINED FOR
PORTLAND 1V02IEIT.
Public School Teachers Uav Been.
Requested to Interest Tlielr
PnpIIs In the Work.
The women who are interested In the
Portland School of Domestic Science feel
that the time has come -when every wo
man in Portland should know just -what
the outline of the plans for this work
are. The -world recognizes the fact that
the management of a bouse and the prep
aration of food is no longer considered
drudgery, but must take their place as a
most beautiful and ennobling science.
The quarters lately occupied by the Port
land Manual Training School -will be
opened very soon as a thoroughly equip
ped School of Domestic Science, Jn
which all .the newest and best methods
of teaching -will be empjoyed. Mrs, Ellen
IL Miller, who is so -well known, and
has done such excellent demonstration
work in thl3 city, will take
charge of classes for working
women, also S housekeepers' classes.
She will also arrange about lec
tures on hygiene and domestic science.
The details of this very important part
of the school have not been fully planned
as yet, but will very soon, be ready for
publication.

Two-hour lessons will be the same as
the three hours course, but there will
be fewer dishes. Each pupil will wear a
cap, apron and cuffs, and do the cooking
at her own desk on a gas stove, and.
whatever she cookc will be her own to
taste and criticise. Elderly women would
enjoy forming a class and so compare
modern methods with those of years ago,
Tvhen all women were notable house
keepers. Mistresses should know ex
actly how work ought to be done, and
young housekeepers would save them
selves and their husbands much deep
tribulation by taking a thorough course.
Girls who wish to be good cooks and
waitresses would feel the ;oy of being
capable and worth good wages, If they
would take the course to earn, a di
ploma from this school.
The women hope that all the teacjiers in
the higher grades in the public schools
will talk of these lessons to their pupll3fas
Miss Porter is finding it very difficult
to get around to all the schools, being so
busy with the furnishing of the kitchen.
Classes for school girls will be held on
"Wednesday afternoons, also Saturdays,
both forenoon and afternoon.
SERVANT GIRLS IN SWEDEN
There the Mistress Is Really Mistress
of Her Household.
Down In these country towns, and In
fact everywhere in Sweden except In
Stockholm and one or two other of the
larger cities, domestic servants are en
gaged under contracts for at least six
months and generally for a year, says
W. E", Curtis in a, letter from Stock
holm. On the 24th of April and the 24th
of October contracts are always made
and service always terminates on one of
those days. Girls who come In from th
country to seek employment as servants
gather In the market place on the morn
ings of those das, -where an official from
the police department Is present to look
after them. They usually bring recom
mendations from the village pastor as to
their character and previous conduct and
from their former employers If they have
been In service before. Some may be for
tunate enough t'o have a testimonial from
the Burgomaster or a merchant or some
other dignitary who Is known by repu
tation. Their names, ages, places of
birth and former residences are all taken
down by the police officials, who also
make briefs of the recommendations they
carry.
During the morning housekeepers who
are In want of servants come to the mar
ket plaee. The official in charge tells
them the name and the record of each
girl, and there are usually personal in
terviews. When a housekeeper finds a
satisfactory candidate she crosses her
hand with silver that is, gives her from
2 to 3 kroner as earnest money, and tells
her to report at her residence on the
date she names. In the meantime the
police official has taken down the terms
of the agreement, the names of the em
ployer and the employed, the amount of
wages and the length of service agreed
upon.
Girls who are already in service and de
sire to make a change file a notice with
this official, who already has their rec
ommendations and what you may call
their domestic history on his books. He
thus acquires the name, sge, character
and reputation of every servant in town.

so that when any &V Inquires for a
cook or a housemaid he can give her re
liable Information concerning every ap
plicant, A. gir) must give her employers a week's
-notice of chanso, and vice versa, sp that
both tho employer and the employed may
have plenty of time tq prepare for the
contract day the 24th of April or the
24th of October,
In the cities employment agencies arp
conducted by the municipality, and when
q. houseKeeper wants a servant she goes
to one of them and finds applications
from every girl 'who wants a place and
the recommendations; 5he carries. When
Bhe picks out the girl she wants the lat
ter Is sent to her house for a personal
Interylew and bears a card which must
be returned to headquarters within 24
hours after jt is Issued. If the Interview
Is not satisfactory the grl brings back
the card and waits for another chance.
If It Is satisfactory the lady of the house
fills out the blanks with the date and
term of employment, the wages agreed
upon and Other facts affecting the con
tract. If the girl Is not satisfied at the end of
a certain time she must go to police
headquarters or to the municipal official
In charge of that business and state her
grievance, He makes an Investigation
and acts as a sort of judge In the case
If the family Is not pleased with their
servant after trial they apply to him and
are compelled to abide by his decision.
No girl can be discharged or obtain her
release during her term of employment
without his consent. If a girl desert?
her employer she may ba arrested and
punished by a fine or Imprisonment and
forfeit her claims to future consideration
of the employment bureau. It will be im
possible for her to get another place. If
her employer refuses to pay her wages
-or does not treat her proporly she can
appeal to the nearest magistrate for re
dress. The wages of servants are very low,
particularly In the small towns. A. good
cook can be obtained for ?4 or ?5 a, month.
A first-class cook sometimes commands
twice as much In large families, but only
among the aristocracy. A housemaid ex
pects from 52 50 to ?5 a month and a
maid of all work In families where only
one servant Is employed must bo paid a
little more.

BOYS SHOULD BE BEATEN.
An Eijfflish Opinion That the Birch
Should Not Be Spared.
London Express.
The American Ambassador, MrChoate,
Is popular with the small boy in these
days. Little Jimmy and tiny Tommy aro
ready to throw their hats In the air and
utter as many cheers as the American
rcpresentati e would care to listen to, Mr.
Choate's name being the text of their en
thusiasm. Mr. Choate. dealing out prizes
at the University College School, also
distributed the opinion that corporal pun
ishment Is all wrong, and that the birch
and the cane should be broken Into smith
ereens, and the smithereens thrown Into
the great elsewhere.
At this particular school the pupils are
never beaten The spectacle of a master
working himself up Into a rage, and, stick
In hand, chasing a wretched boy, does not
occur In the Gower-street seat of learn
ing, although the sight Is not yet obsolete
as to the whole of England's schools.
The method at the University College
School Is one of moral suasion. The
youth who refuses to learn or who be
haves In a disorderly manner is sent In
awful state to the room of the head
master or of his assistant, and there lee.
tured for his shortcomings.- They have
or had a system of an "appearing book "
This Is sent for and brought In In the
most solemn state. In the presence of
the whole class the name of the culprit
and an account of his misdeeds are en
tered. Later he Is arraigned for grim
trial. - ,
Many boys would prefer to be seized
and whacked and have it over, but- It Is
found, so the school authorities allege,
that moral suasion Is more effective In
reforming them. Mr. Choate comes from
a country where in 'theory the person of
the individual Is regarded as eo sacred
that the small boy Is not trounced with a
birch. Many people who have had deal
ings with the American small boy attrib
ute his bad manners, his "freshness" and
his offenslvenebs to this very fact.
Experts In the matter tell us that It Is
Impossible to develop a boy without a
certain allowance of cane. Old maids and
old bachelors believe that a boy can be
governed by standing him In a corner or
depriving him of his bread and jam. This
statement the aforesaid exports greet with
an incredulous guffaw. It Is hardly likely
that Mr. Choate was ever confronted
with the Irritating situation of a small
boy making a grimace at him and div
ing under the table. If he had been so
confronted, he would have found It more
easy to rout him out of his hiding-place
with a vigorously used broomstick than
to extract him with the honeyed words
which he uses so well In diplomacy.
Papas who know what they are talking
about say that the moral suasion plan is
a success with little girls. These should
never be slapped They are more sensi
tive and refined by nature than the hob
bledehoy young male, and they respond
more readily to appeals to their Intellect.
For the present It is likely that the Brit
ish parent will not dispose of the penny
cano or of the lath. Tills Implement used
by builders in tne construction of ceilings
is cheaper than bamboo, and Is a very
effectlve article.
A boy of 13, tradition says, cannot be
managed by a woman at all. This Is be
cause the woman employs the arguments
of diplomacy, like Mr. Choate. A man
has no difficulty In persuading the very
