acted by the little pupils of Jrfias
Thelander's riorn, to the delight of
the large audience. The spirit and
motive of the play were wonderfully
well portrayed by the tiny tots, and
the uncotiscious grace and charming
manner in which each child acted its
part reflected great credit upon the
teacher.
The pupils of the eighth and ninth
grades gave a splendid rendition of
"Santa Lucia" and "Bendemeer's
Stream."
Assistant Superintendent D. A.
Grout gave a talk on "Teachering and
Treatment of Children in Intermediate
Grades." Among the many interest
ing and beneficial suggestions made
by Mr. Grout was the proper con
sideration and patient care due a child
during the years of dentation or from
to 12 years, these being years of
low vitality, when the nervous sys
tem is under a strain, and the sub
jective mind In strong assendency.
Following Mr. Grout's talk there was
an interesting discussion, in which
botli parents and teachers joined.
Mrs. Ij. R. Alderman gave a report
of what the committee had done in
the matter of purchase of pictures for
the 16 looms of the school, and ex
hibited many copies of old paintings.
After the meeting adjourned tea was
served in the domestic science room
by pupils of the ninth grade, under
the direction of Miss Spencer. Fol

Arleta School Notes.
The school garden work of the Ar

At a recent meeting of the Parent
Teacher association, it was decided
not to have a community garden this
year, but to devote the time and en

gardens, and thus foster the "Home

popular In thai district with both
parents and children. The parents ap
prove it because it furnishes health
ful home employment for the chil
dren through the spring and summer,
and prefer this to the community gar
den, because they believe that the lat
ter, when carried on on bo large a
scale as has been formerly done, en
tails too much work upon the teach
ers, and so leads to unavoidable neg
lect of classroom work.
The pupUa prefer the home gardens
because they are more remunerative
than the community garden. Compar
atively few of the vegetables are mar
ketable before school closes In June,
and since many of the pupils live too
far from the community garden to
make it easy to go there and care for
their gardens during vacation, they
have' not been able to reap the fruits
of their labors. In several Instances,
too, where the pupils have continued
to care for' their school plats during
the vacation, the vegetables have been
stolen and the children lost the re
wards of their industry.
In the "back yard gardens." on the
other hand, it is easy for the child
to continue to water and cultivate his
garden through vacation and gather
all his harvest at the proper time, and
in cases where comparisons have
been made it is found that the home
gardens yield much larger financial
returns than the community garden
does. Then too, the average child has
more of a feeling of individual owner
ship of the home garden than he does
of his plat in a community garden
and he takes more pride in working
out bis own individual scheme than
in conforming his plat to fit in with
a larger scheme.
It is Intended to have the home
gardens more closely supervised this
year than ever before. To this end a
large committee of patrons and teach
ers has been appointed. Each member
of this committee will have a small
part of the district alloted to him and
will oversee the school gardens in
that portion of the district. No one
will be asked to assume the super
vision of more than a dozen gardens,
but will be expected to make weekly
inspections of them, giving advice and
encouragement to the children when
ever either Is needed.
Already 500 children have signified
their intention of haUig home gar
dens and are impatiently waiting till
weather conditions make it possible to
begin operations in the soil. There
will be both kitchen and flower gar
dens. Many of the pupils, too, have
been instructed In the planting- of
vines and shrubs. One thousand
grave vines and Loganberry bushes
have been ordered by the children and
will be set out this spring.
A number of the pupils will have
both vegetable and flower gardens.
Mr. Weed has given several helpful
talks' to both patrons and children, in
structing them as to soils, seeds, and
the basic principles of landscape gar
dening so that their efforts at home
beautifying may be put forth wisely.
It is expected that his very practical
suggestions will result in great im
provement in the appearance of the
lawns and gardens of the community.

telephonic communication between
New Tork and San Francisco undoubt

with the wireless telephone, according I
to Peter Cooper Hewitt, the Inventor,
who says it soon will be possible to

PORTLAND has the novel distinction
of having a Carrie Jacobs Bond
musical club, composed entirely of
children boys and girls under the age
of 15 years. Probably in no other city,
except, perhaps, her home city of Chi
cago, has Mrs. Bond, the poet, composer
and reader, more ardent admirers than
in Portland. Her appearances here are
always sources of great delight to im
menae audiences, and row it seems her
admirers are not limited to adults, for
last November there was organized this
little club bearing her name.
The club was organized by anil is di
rected by Mrs. John F. Bearmont.
Meetings are held every second Satur
day afternoon at the homes of mem
bers, at which times there are musical
and literary programs, followed by a
social time, with refreshments. The
club comprises active and associate
members, the officers of whlcn are:
President, Etelka Parrish; vice-president,
Mary E. Harney; recording secre
tary, Jennie BoDine; corresponding sec
tary, Margaret Holbrook: treasurer, Im
boden Parrish; Cecelia O'Day, chairman
program committee; Patricia Neilan,
chairman membership committee; Dor
othy Albaugh, Catherine Bonhawi, Leon
ora Powell, Orla Powell, Mary Lou Mo
ser, Nina O'Day, Hazel Mary Price,
Margaret Barrow.
The active members of the club are
those who play the piano, and tiie as
sociate are those who sing, read, or
have some other accomplishment, and
the honorary members, of whom there
are 13, consist of the mothers of the
children and several older musicians,
as follows: Mrs. Carrie Jacob3 Bond,
Mrs. John F. Beaumont, Mrs. George
Parrish, Mrs. J. N. Harney, Mrs. Law
rence Holbrook, Mrs. S. L. Albaugh,
Mrs. H. W. Bonliam, Mra. Leonard
Powell, Miss Minerva Holbrook. Miss
Iouise Odeall, Mrs. H. A. Moser. Mrs.
J. Chris O'Day, Mrs. O. L. Price, Mrs.
I. D. BoDine, Mrs. Arthur M. Odell,
Mrs. J. D. Neilan, Miss Helen O'Day.
Mrs. Frank Barrow.
The club's most treasured possession
is the following letter from Mrs. Bond:
"November 21. 1914.
"My Very Dear New Friends:
"It was a great surprise to me to
know there was a Carrie Jacobs Bond
musfcal club that was composed of
young people under the age of 16 years.
It makes me feel that I must do some
thing very, very nice to keep the ad
miration of all your hearts. It is a
great compliment you have paid me,
and I appreciate It deeply. In leturn,
let me say that late In the summer of
1915, while I am In the west, it will b-s
a great pleasure for me to give one of
my recitals for Just your little club
only just the members and We will
have a HtUe. heart-to-heart day.
"With love and greetings, I am
