THE SUNDAY OKEGOXIAN. PORTXATO. SEPTEMBER 30, 1906.
FAVOR FREE BOOKS
Portland Educators as a Rule
Willing to Try Experiment.
VIEWS - OF SCHOOL BOARD
Director Wittenberg Alone Is Op
posed to Representative Beve
ridge's Bill J. V. Beach Unde
cided Rigler Advocates Plan
Educators of Multnomaji County have
been industriously studying the free text
book question, since announcement was
made a few days ago that a bill propos
ing such a law in Oregon, would be in
troduced at the next session of the Legis
lature by J. W. Beverldge. represent-
tlve from Multnomah County. The gen
eral opinion seems to be favorable to such
a law though many have not yet given
sufficient study to the question to take a
decisive stand.
Among the arguments most prominently
advanced in favor of free text books is
that it .will assure absolute uniformity in
text books, thus solving a problem which
is at. times vexing. Linked with this is
the argument that the law would elimi
nate delay in the organization of the
schools. This is a suggestion that appeals
with especial force to the teachers who
know better than others bow work is
hampered at the opening of school.
Under the present system, where each
pupil furnishes his own books, it is im
possible for all to be supplied on the
opening day of the term, and it is often
several days before every scholar is
equipped, whereas, under the new plan, it
is asserted, the books would always be
at hand and ready for distribution on the
opening day of school.
Even more important in the eyes of
some is the argument that free text books
would Increase the attendance. At pres
ent there are undoubtedly many children
who are kept out of school because their
parents cannot afford to buy books, or
because they do not wish to incur the
outlay. All admit that the district should
pay. for books for the former class and
many think that they should for the lat
ter, inasmuch as if this is not done the
children suffer because of the fault of
the parents.
Sow Supplied to Destitute.
Books are now provided for children of
destitute families, when application is
made, but it is stated that many chil
dren are kept out of school because their
parents are too poor to buy books and
are too pround to ask the district to sup
ply them. With free text booKs for all,
the distinction between poor and well-to-do
pupils would be eliminated.
Superintendent Rlgler is favorable to
free text books as a general proposition,
but added that he had not studied the
matter thoroughly iough to give his
opinion as to the advisability of adopting
it here.
"In Philldelphla.- where I was con
nected with the schools, a free text book
law was in force." he said, "and from
my experience there I can say that it
proved vjry satisfactory. Conditions in
that city were not the same as here
and the "results might not be the same.
I am going to make a study of conditions
here in connection with the bill to be
introduced by Mr. Beveridge, but would
not like to express an opinion upon it
at this time.
"The greatest benefit from free text
books, it seems to me, lies -in the help
they give in organizing a school. There
can be no doubt but that much time
would be gained if the pupils could be
furnished with all books upon the open
ing day of each term." c.
Chairman Beach Undecided.
"I can see many benefits which would
be derived from a free text book law."
said J. V. Beach, chairman of the Board
of Education, ""but I am not sure that
they would not be offset by the dis
advantages. As yet I have not given the
question enough study to venture an
opinion. The law would certainly be a
good thing for the people who are not
able to buy but on the other hand, it
would saddle an additional expense upon
the public. It seems to me that under a
system of free books, very close over
sight would be necessary to prevent the
children from using them recklessly."
H. Wittenberg, also a member of the
Board of Education, came out flatly
against the proposal.
"I fail to see the necessity for a law
of this kind as long as parents are able to
bu- books," he said. "Free text books
are all right for those who cannot af
ford to buy them, and in such cases I
am certainly in favor of their being sup
plied, but I would limit it to that. Such,
at least. Is my opinion without giving the
matter close study.
"I am not much of an advocate of
paternal government and this seems to
me to be a step in, that direction. The
more we let people help themselves the
better It is for them. If children know
that their parents are paying for the
books, it seems to me they will realize
that an education Is of more value than
they will if the books come from the
district"
Reminiscences of the
Portland Y.W.C.A.
REMINISCENCES were, in order yes
terday up at the association head
quarters. It is only since 1S97 that the
first organized work for young, women
was done in the whole Northwest, . under
the guidance of the first Btate committee
of-the North Pacific Coast - Association.
The organization had jurisdiction over
Oregon, Washington and Idaho. Its
members were Mrs. C. A. Dolph, chair
man ; Mrs. H. W. Corbett, Mrs. J. F.
Watson, Mrs. C. R. Templeton, Mrs. J.
B. Montgomery, Mrs. S. B. Hill, Miss Ger
trude Holmes (Mrs. Charles Lawrence).
Mrs. Dell Stuart, Mrs. E. W. Allen, Miss
Mabel Hazeltlne (Mrs. J. Hazelton). It
Was organized at the Holbes Business
College, which, through the courtesy of
Miss Holmes, continued to be state head
quarters for five years.
It was pioneer work that these women
did. and Mrs. C. A. Dolph, its chair
man, was untiring In her efforts for the
success of a greatly needed institution,
in the beginning the associations, under
the supervision of the committee, were
all in colleges and normal schools, of
which there were at that time 27 in the
Northwest. The question of a city as
sociation in Portland had frequently been
contemplated by the1 committee, but no
definite steps were taken toward the ac
complishment of the work till 1900, when
the great and crying need of the city was
so borne in upon the hearts of the execu
tive committee that they concluded It
was their duty to take some steps toward
the starting of an association for the girls
of Portland.
' It is not often that a city waits to have
a population of a hundred thousand be
fore this organization so necessary in the
establishing of standards for womanhood
in every community is formed; but it was
so in Portland. Mrs. Dolph took the in
itiative. Her first step was to invite to
Portland one of the brightest members of
the National secretarial staff. Miss West,
who was then in Seattle helping to re
organize a city association there. - Mrs.
Dolph invited 50 representative women of
Portland to discuss the matter in the par.
lors of the Hotel Portland. Miss West
made a splendid plea for the city, and
stated clearly the need for the organiza
tion and the great benefit the girls of
Portland would derive from It. So con
vincing wast her statement that a large
number of the ladies present gave their
names as charter members. Three days
later another meeting was called by the
state committee, and the city association
was formally organized, with over 300
charter members, and Mrs. W. J. Honey
man was chosen president. Mrs. Honey,
man has continued in office till the pres
ent time, and given untiring effort and
unlimited time to the work.
It ji-as with great difficulty that rooms'
were at last secured In the McKay build
ing. These were formally opened April
2. 1901. and the wonderful prosperity and
growth of the association in the short
five years of its life have been largely
due to the fact that a number of repre
sentative women have almost constantly
made this thing first in their interests.
Before long the association was obliged
to move from the McKay building because
of the . large number of girls . that
came to the rooms at the noon
hour. thus clogging the elevator
service. It was . then the pres
ent quarters were obtained, with an out
side entrance that could be used exclu
sively by the young women. It is because
that building is no longer to be available
to them that the immediate need for ade
quate quarters must be met.
Germany's Strong Man Dead.
BERLIN. Sept. 29. Hans Steyer,
known as- the German Hercules, is
dead at the early age of 67. As a
young man he went on the freak and
music hall stage, and made a great
deal of money. He retired and bought
a cafe and hotel. His beer garden at
Giesing. near Munich, was well known
all over Europe. He still amused his
customers by feats of strength. A
rock in the garden weighing 400
pounds he would tip over with one
finger. He could carry a 10-gallon
barrel of beer in a sling on two fingers.
He always twirled a walkinsr stick, in
his fingers, and surprised the unini
tiated by handing it suddenly to them to
hold. It weighed 30 pounds. Steyer died
of diabetes.
A SUNDAY SCHOOL INGENUE
Trances Slosson, Who Has Achieved Measureahle Stage Success
in Four Years, Left the Lesson Leaf for the Play Manuscript.
BT ARTHUR A. GREENE.
IN one of the popular musical com
edies is a fetching little jingle called
"A Dainty Little Ingenue." The gal
lery boys, who are the best judges of
such things, whistle the air with much
gusto and staid men of business who
hear it from the orchestra chairs fre
quently indulge in the mild dissipation
of numming It when they should be
dictating letters. It's a dainty little
tune, true enough, and harmless.
That sparkling little song somehow
suggests the young lady about whom
I am going to set down some Information.--
Whoever wrote it may never have
seen Frances Slosson, but he might
without violating the proprieties have
dedicated it to her. She is a dainty
little ingenue to the life.
She is a fragile bit of femininity,
but her independence, her level-headed
common sense and her actively healthy
mind makes it a matter out of the ques
tion to assume the protective mental
attitude toward her that one uncon
sciously takes in his acquaintance with
delicate little women.
My impression is that she has brown
hair and eyes, a slightly tip-tilted nose,
and even teeth. She's not a. beauty any
more than Maude Adams Is. but her face
is that of a good, unspoiled girl, who
looks out upon the world with faith and
confidence.
Better than all, she has a personality,
a rare asset for a girl in the early 20s.
Her education stopped when she dressed
up In her white frock and recited some
thing about "Beyond the Alps Lies Italy,"
from a high school rostrum: but she has
read many helpful books and is' generally
informed.
Francen Slosson is ambitious, but not
inordinately so. She doesn't expect to be
a star or even leading lady this season
or next. If she never becomes either
she won't cry so she says but she would
like "to grow in her profession until the
best acting companies in the country are
open to her. .
Her ctage experience covers but four
years. It was in James NeiU's "Barbara
Freitchie" company that she made her
bow. I During that season she played in
Portland with Frances Forbes, and the
few lines of commendation The Oregonian
gave her are still treasured memories.
At the close of that first season she
joined the regular Neill stock, playing
bits at first, but finally being advanced
to Ingenue. During the past two years
she has been ingenue with the Bishop
players, alternating between Oakland and
San Francisco. Since her engagement
with the Baker company she has in a
very few weeks played a wide variety, of
parts and played them all so well that
she has become a local theatrical per
sonage. This week she is' to come more
prominently forward than before, for
she will be seen as Bossy, a part after
the heart of an ingenue, in "A Texas
Steer."
Miss Slosson doesn't prate glibly of
her past career. A girl with her lim
ited experience Is wont to do that sort
of thing, but as I've said she is an
eminently sensible young person. She
is confident enough to believe that she
has a career awaiting her somewhere
farther along the road, and is work
ing toward it. Among the parts she
has played she is most partial to Syl
via, in "A Bachelor's Romance," a
pretty role which I fancy she did well.
This particular "dainty little in
genue" has one peculiar distinction,
and in this she is probably unique. She
decided to go on the stage upon the
advice of her Sunday school teacher.
In Los Angeles, where she lived most
of her short life, she was a member of
a certain Methodist Sunday school,
and as ardently interested in its af
fairs as in everything else to which
she lends her energies. She attracted
the attention of her teacher, a lady of
clear discernment, who believed that
If the girl could recite "pieces" so well
and accomplish such other wonders at
church entertainments were given a
chance she could succeed as a real
play-actress. There were objections
from the Methodistlcally inclined Slos
sons, but in the end the teacher and
the ambitious daughter won them
over.
So the "dainty little ingenue" gave
up her Sunday school class, her tennis
and horseback riding, and by chance
got an engagement.
This, in brief, is the story of a short
but well-accounted-for stage career
which is full of fine promise. Frances
Slosson may be trusted to give her
best efforts toward making the public
glad she followed her Sunday school
teacher's advice, and -we may someday
heap much praise upon the head of
that far-sighted teaching lady for hav
ing helped to give the stage one of its
lights.

T burns hard coal, soft
coal or wood, and utilizes
all the heating power of
the! fuel. Ordinary ranges
are made of cast iron.
Such ranges are fuel
wasters, because when
steel Is bolted to cast
iron, it is practically im
possible to make tight joints, without the use
of stove putty.
Such a stove may work well until the bolts
become loose, or ftie seams open between the
rivets. The putty contracts, hardens and falls
out. Then outside air leaks In through every
seam and Joint through Imperfectly closed
openings at the oven door; the draft door,
the ash-pah door, etc., and it takes twice as
much fuel to keep up the fire.
The Monarch Range Is different. It is con
structed witn Malle
able Jron frames, to
which the sheet steel
is riveted not bolted.
Onlv in this way can
absolutely air-tight
joints be made.
There is no stove
putty in a Monarch.
Each of the frames
around the Oven Door,
Ash Door, the Pouch
Feed, back of Oven, etc., is made of Malle
able Iron, which insures air-tight seams,
without danger of leaks.
All this makes an - economical, lasting
range, with perfect fire control a ranee
that cooks well and stays satisfactory for
a lifetime.
