"Every one of the boys worked at some
time during his high school course.
The average earning capacity per boy
during this time was $1200. In other

factory during his odd moments, an
other worked In the harvest fields. The
average scholarship of this class was
88 Der cent The number going to col
lege, seven boys and four girls; that is
to say. 33 1-3 per cent entered college.
"In the June class there were 35 boys
and EE girls. Thirty-three of the So
boys worked in whole or In part dur
ing their high school course. Twenty-
three of the 65 "girls employed their
spare time and vacation to good ad
vantage. The average earning capacity
of the boys per pupil during the four
years was $735. In other words, the
total amount earned during their high
school course was $25,725. The average
earning- capacity of the 25 girls was
approximately $300 per pupil. Total
amount earned. $6,900.
"The employments were varied, and

housework, painting, embroidery, office

their Intention of going to college.
"In the manual training department
reports were received from 94 boy 5.
Of these, 80 did some work during the
Summer time, earning a total of $2708,
or an average of $79 per day. The re
ports show that the majority worked

carrying papers; a few worked all
Summer, but the majority worked only
part of the time.
"In the commercial department, 75
worked during the Summer. The work
is varied from teaming, messenger, of
fice, railroad work, carrying papers

that these students rank high In
scholarships."

NIGHT SCHOOL IS POPULAR
Classes at Lincoln High, With 600
Enrolled, Tax Facilities.
More than twice the number of reg
istrations, compared to last year, have
been noted at the Lincoln High School
night classes, according to a report by
Principal W. C Alderson. The num
ber of enrollments for high school and
elementary grades, has exceeded the
600 mark, and facilities are taxed In
organizing for the season.
Last year there were only 300 stu
dents taking advantage of night tui
tion, whereas this year the majority
of those registered are taking up com
mercial training and typewriting.
DAY OF REST IS PROVIDED
City Employes Must Not Be Allowed
to Work Continuously.
Every city employe hereafter is to
have one day off each week. Follow
ing an investigation by City Commis
sioner Brewster a resolution has been
prepared, which other members of the
Commission have - agreed to Indorse,
providing that there shall be only 112
days of work in the year lor eacn em
ploye. At present many of the em
ployes work every day.
In some cases the change will mean
a reduction of salary because the em
ployes are paid by the day. Where
monthly salaries are paid the change
will have no effect upon salary. There
probably are 200 employes who will be
affected by the change, all the rest
of the city's 1100 being privileged with
a day off already.

SCHOOL F0RADULTS PLAN
Place to Teach Unemployed to Do
Work at Hand Is Considered.
A school for the temporarily unera-4
ployed adults of Portland is the latest
educational plan under consideration
by Superintendent Alderman and will
be submitted at an early date to the
School Board,
"Many unemployed men and women
going to the employment agencies find
Jobs open for which they are not fit
ted," he said. "They go dally to the
agencies, but, lacking the training to
take jobs that are open and finding no
jobs that they are fitted for, are apt
to lose courage and sink steadily to
lower and lower stages of efficiency,
"My Idea Is a school for adults, at
which the temporarily unemployed may
receive the training which will enable
them to take the Jobs which, when they
first offer, may be such as their lim
ited training makes it impossible for
them to fill."
John P. Fink Loses Auto.

Even Most Chronic Sufferers
Find Relief From Few
Doses of Croxone
Croxone soon relieves such condi
tions because it reaches the very roots
of the disease. It soaks right Into the
stopped-up, inactive kidneys, through
the walls and linings; cleans out the
little filtering cells and glands; neu
tralizes and dissolves the poisonous
uric acid substances that lodge In the
Joints and muscles to scratch and Irri
tate and cause rheumatism; heals the
inflamed membranes of the bladder,
and cleans out and strengthens the
stopped-up, lifeless kidneys so they eaa
filter and sift all the poisons from the
blood, and drive it out of the system.
So sure, no positive, so quick and
lasting, are the results obtained from
the use of Croxone, that three doses
day for a few days are often all that
is required to end the worst backache,
regulate the most annoying bladder
disorders, and overcome the numerous
other similar conditions.
Croxone is so prepared that It Is
practically impossible to take It with
out results.
An original package costs but a
trifle, and all druggists are authorized
to return the purchase price If Croxone
fails to give desired results, regard
less of how old you are, how long
you have suffered, or what else has
tailed.
