Hundreds of graduates of the school of home economics are holding responsible and remuner ative positions as teachers, as managers of tea rooms, cafeterias, and sweet shops, . as laboratory and rosearch specialists, and,, as specialists in other branches. Sixty per cent of students who finish the course teach for at least one year. They are to be found everywhere in Oregon and In many other states, holding posi tions which range in responsibil- school lunch rooms, dormitories that require housekeepers and col lege dining halls and cafeterias that require managers. It includes furthermore, industrial plants, from logging camps to manufac tories, where the directors realize that the efficiency of the working ,man depends on the kind of nour ishment which they receive and the atmosphere in which they work and live. Hospitals,-schools, asylums, and other public institu tions which require dieticians are also included, as well as a thou sand aand ono others. The primary aim of the school of home economics is to give the beauty as is their name poetic. "In the Waldo hills, in Marion county, in Oregon, there once lived a little boy on a farm, whose talent was one day to make him a world famous figure. "That little boy was Homer Davenport, the great cartoonist." Miss King describes his life at Silverton in pioneer days, his later visits there, his travels and his death. She, as so many others have done, wonders at the fact that the Silverton people were so eager to have the great Davenport brought home to his native city for burial and then neglected the grave.

Lea. who has had the idea tentatively worked out for tome time. This will be something en tirely new to the Oregon public, only one other fair, and that at Syracuse, N". Y., having staged a similar attraction to the knowl edge of state fair officials. The races will in all proba bility be running events, with a remarkable showing of fast horses participating. These will come from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, with the possi bility of some fine strings from the Tia Juana district. Many of hese will be especially entered for this feature alone, and sever ral of the regular circuit horses will be in competition also. Lighting System Elaborate. To light the track an Intricate system of illumination; is being prepared, which will include pow erful spot lights, andi hundreds of arc lights arranged ait close In tervals around the entire course. This is being installed! now, and should be in readiness well be fore the opening of the fair. It will make possible the flooding of the track in strong, white light. At first it was thought only possible to stage these races one night, but horsemen and the fair going public, since learning of the plan, have besieged the office of the secretary with letters and, telegrams asking thai they be scheduled nightly. This will probably be done, or at least every other night. During, the brief intermissions clever entertainera will put on specialties on tho stage in the grandstand. Fireworks Monday Right. Monday night will also close with a spectacular display of fire works in front of the grandstand. New Engineering Laboratory lty from that of grammar school teachers to that ot normal and col. lege professors. Many students are occupying administrative positions in con nection with the feeding and hous ing of large groups ot people. This Is said to be a recognition ot tne business education which home economics gives In planning and organising work and In directing andcon trolling others. -; The kind of training is given which makes it possible for a srraduate to. open a little shop of her own tea room, a nuinnery department, or a dressmaking sod. To -do this. is the ambition of large numbers or students, ana is within the bounds of realization for those who have real business ability and a natural liking for the work- they are undertaking. Graduates are actually taking ad vantage of opportunities for need le women,; designers of clothing, milliners, dress - making, ladies tailors, household furnishers, and Oregon's Hicher Institution of nnnn young women the kind of training that will inspire them to become good citizens and good ' homo makers. A large percentage of the young women in the school of home ec onomics and other schools finance themselves either wholly or in part while attending college. It on is strong physically, is willing to work hard, is capable and has determination and pluck it is pos sible to do this, graduates in home economics say. Various methods ot support are found by young wo men, opportunities include work in dormitories and private fami lies, clerical work in offices, sten ographic work, assistant work in the library, laboratories, offices and store rooms, and personal sen- vices or various kinds: Laree num bers of students make use of their lecnmcai Knowledge in summer vacations. Miss Mary A. Rolfe ot Cham paign. III., a graduate of the Uni versity of Illinois. Northwestern .university and Garrett Theological seminary, nas just been appointed as dean of women to succeed Mrs. Mary HZ Fawcett, now Mrs. H. C. Campbell of Portland. It is her purpose to. act as friend and ad viser for the young women. My relation to roonr women should, be that of friend,' said Miss Koiia. "Tnat 'folks is folks' and that all should be friends was the biggest thing learned in the war as I see It We have to help each other in friendship. It Is my desire to have the young women come to me for what I have so I can give it to them.

"I straightened the weather- beaten headboard and gathered ferns to hide the dry. grassless. neglected resting place of one once so great. "At one corner ot , the family plot a poor, dried rosebush strug gled to bring forth one bloom. "Human nature will ever re main a mystery. "Why they de mand his remains and then seem ingly forget them, and for nine long years let only this little board mark his grave is more than I can understand. "But he loved Silverton, and no doubt Homer Davenport would rather lie neglected there than honored anywhere else. Such was the simplicity and the loyalty of nis nature. " At Pomona college the girls are forbidden to rest their chins cn their partner's shoulders while dancing. The only reason for this order that we can see is to pre vent the shoulders being discol ored with powder. Can you think of any other.
