EXCESS OF SUPPLY OF -
NDIAN CLUBS FOUND
ON HAND IN SCHOOLS
Twenty-Eight Principals Re-
port That They Have More
' . Goods Than They Need.
VALUE IS CONSIDERABLE
School Clark Thomas Insists That Ha
Xa Wot KesponslVe for the
UnaMd SnppUaa.
1 When The Jo'irnul recently pointed
.out instam'pj of apparent waste and
xtra vHSance In the handling of school
supplies, attention was called to a
Isurplus of Indian Hubs and dumb bells
at one of the schools. The principal
Stated that the clubs had been there
.a lng time and he nevtr had occa
sion to use them.
At the request of Robert Krohn.
t physical director for the schools, the
principal of each school has made a
j report on the number of dumb bells.
. Indian clubs and wands on hand. Mr.
Krohn says this is the first time he
i has ever asked for such a report and
it is the first time the principals have
.advised him of any surplus,
j Twenty-eight principals reported
I that they Had on hand an excess sup-
ply. These supplies run into hun
dreds of pairs of the articles in ques
f tion.
Reports Check ad Up.
Mr. Krohn went through the reports
s and checked those which he admitted
; were not needed at the schools and
they will be' returned to the school
; storeroom. At other schools he di-
reeled that the supplies be left, as he
, contemplates use for them in the
, future. But the supplies have been
qn hand and the principals have not
had use for them, while on the other
; hand new supplies in the same line
j are being frequently purchased.
Five schools reported an excess of
.12? pairs of Indian clubs, which Mr.
Krohn ordered returned to the store-
room. Kleen other schools reported
an excess of ISO pairs of clubs, but
these Mr. Krohn will have left at the
schools.
Kight schools reported a surplus of
TO." pairs of dumb bells, which will be
returned to the storeroom, while five
other schools reported an excess of 98 i
. pairs. These latter will be left at the
schools.
Six schools reported an excess of
.' 1SJ wands, which excess is admitted.
while 11 schools reported a surplus of
wands, which will be left at the
schools.
The Chapman school is using 130
pairs . Indian clubs, 150 pairs dumb
bells and 10S wands, and the principal
reported in addition to these a surplus
of ? pitirs of clubs. 70 pairs of dumb
bells and 4S wands.
Krohn Dodges Blame.
Mr. Krohn declared he was pleased
to learn that the excess number of
clubs and bells and wands at the
schools is no greater than is shown by
the reports.
" It is not the fault of the physical
trit'.ninp department when there are
too many supplies on hand at the
schools." said Mr. Krohn. "It la the
principals who pu in the requisition
for supplies, and I never send out
nupplies except at the request of the
principals.-'
He said rome of the Indian clubs
not being used are old ones that were
purchased several years apo by funds
rai.sed at an exhibition given by school
children at the Armory. He said he
figured that each school should have
15 to 20 extra pairs on hand to take
care of additions to classes. A surplus
is sometimes brought about by
changes in the organization of the
work, he sa. 1.
School Clerk Thomas, who Is at the
head of the business department of
tli school district, s.id he wanted it
understood that his office was not to
blame for the unused quantities of
supplies at the schools, as he only
filled the requisitions as they came In.

British Humor Not
A Minus Quantity
Thaa Declares Viw BrKlsh Consul
Sherwood Before Ad Clnfc; President
Whltcomb Outline Club's Policy.
Harry L. Sherwood, the new British
consul to Portland, disproved before
the Ad club the adage that the Brit
ish sense of humor Is a minus quan
tity. In brad Ergllsh dialect and
entirely Inoffensively he discussed the
British viewpoint of things Ameri
can. He told of the "entrancing char
acter" of the banner advertising in
front of saloons before the first of
the year, telling each day Just how
many more days remained until prohi
bition. He spoke of his disappoint
ment in the apparent T.ews story that
ends up with an advertisement and of
his interest in the patent medicine
testimonials. He disclaimed being, as
his introducer had presented him. a di
plomatist, "a diplomatist." he quoted,
"is one who lies for his country."
Glen K. Miller presided and in a
preliminary adejress gave a compre
hensive and optimist. c review of the
financial situation.
It was the first session over which
Walter D. Whitcomh, recently elected
president, has presided and he was
greeted with cordial applause Hs
outline of pol cy was brief and he
stresesd principally his determination
that the ilub's activities sliall be con
ducted for general gcod of the city
and "state and Its members rather than
personal notoriety or aggrandizement.

Torest Reserve Are Xecessary in
Order to Beallza on Apportion
ment Made by the State.
Salem. Or., Jan. ;i. Secretary of
State Oleott has apportioned S49.675-&2
he had received from the federal gov
ernment from rentals, hales of timber
and other sources from natfbnal forest
reserves for the year June 30. 1915. tu
tfcose counties in which the forest re
serves are situated, in proportion ti
the entire forest area of the stale.
The money so received by the counties
must be divided between the school
and road funds and expended as other
moneys in the funds are expended.
Bassd on Net Area.
The apportionment, it is explained,
is based on the net or actual forest
area within each county, as furnished
by the forest service at Washington.
In transmitting the schedule of na
tional forest areas, the acting forester
said that it was computed on a dif
ferent basis from those previously fur
nished, inasmuch as it Included only
net areas, which means actual natlonul
forest lands, exclusive of alienated
lands. The former schedules were
based on gross areas and included
the alienated lands, falling within the
national forest boundaries.
"The forest service has always rec
ognized that the basis now used is the
logical one, but it has not been pos
sible heretofore to segregate the two
lasses with sufficient accuracy." the
acting forester explained.
rire Counties Lose Out.
Clatsop, Oolumbia. Gilliam. Sher
man and Washington counties, which
have no national forests within theii
boundaries, are the only ones that do
not participate in the distribution.
