THE OREGON STATESMAN. SALEM, OREGON. . WEDNESDAY MORNING, MARCH 28, 1928 PUPILS RUN STORE IS CUSS PROJECT "Money" Obtained by Schol astic Achievement; Cit izenship Learned There are stores and more stores, but to the third A and B pupils at the McKlnley school, there is one store that stands by itself, incomparably ahead of the neighborhood grocery, or even the downtown establishment. It is the store that occupies the tall cupboard in front of their school room: a store Where the "best sellers" are sainp'e prod ucts, though none the less real; a! Store wutrio uuui u iuuiicj " better than gold and where to be merchant is a point of honor. For three succecsiv class gen erations of students now. Mrs. W. 4 Davenport, the teacher, has used the "store" as a basis to! teach her young pupils a number; of things that it is not so easy to; inrnlcate with do s and don'ts."-- The cardboard money is award ed to rhff students for perfect scholarship and with if the stu- ,1 . t . r ntitlpd to nurcbase a tiny bag of flour, a small box of breakfast rood; miniature Doxes f rold cream or powder, little cans of baking powder, candy sam ples or other commodities that may be in stock. A star in spelling nets the pupil a penny as does also a perfect .rithmtlc lnftson: extra work i: ...noiiv worth dim in most any class. When every child in ,the room has a perfect lesson, tnere te ten cents apiece awaiting thextt, or five cents when the class has a n.rr 1pnn Roth individual and collective work are given an added impetus, ior me siuueni will work harder, Mrs. Davenport finds, under the play stimulus. "But." the teacher said as ehe recounted the plan. "I wouldn't for a minute have you think the students feel they must be paid for everything they do. They have been taught they mustn"t exped lt, and they don't." The students put "their owi prices on aricles as they come in The voungsters themselves keei the shelves pretty well filled bringing samples from home often and also collecting tbem from merchants, whom they, have al wavs found willing to cooperate when the store idea is- explained. Probably once a week the chil dren select one of their classmates whom they feel is particularly worthy to be merchant for the oc casion and the store Is opened Buying goea on at a great rate though the teacher's guiding hand sees there is a limit placed upon wnai a ?iuaeui iubj yiuvmu time. The young scholars are often found to. buy things' for mother or a little brother or sis ter at home. All is not profit in thia store business; an established scale of fines deprives a student of his money should he for .Instance, ap- noor In 1 ha ! TOOm WitO'diTt? Ehote. Mrs. Davenport finds the store a great help in teaching the chil dren citizenship as well as the im.r. concrete anollcation of such studies as arithmetic. The store is also easily utilised to make for greater interest in the regulai geography, reading and language clr rsses. When a reporter appeared at this room several days ago. the third graders were beginning the study of Holland in the geographj class, and to make a distant lane1 more interesting, about the room were a number of things depicting the country and habits of th windmill people. At one end of the room stood a sand table containing miniature houses, windmills, tulip bed, canals, cows, and even the Hol landers themselves. There were bridges of gray construction paper; windmills of stiff card board, bright with their colors of grey, blue and yellow and con laining the huge fans; windmills of wood, carefully painted in sim ilar colors and replete with tiny windows and bfg grey fana. This had t:en arranged by pi:pils and teacher, some of the articles being constructed for the purpose, albeit many of the repli cas were brought from the "prop erty" room, kept well stocked by th tparhor and which, as the class interest changes from country to country, yields .many aeiigmiui surprises for the young student. Pictures and posters about the room told further of the wooden shoe people, as well as adding color to an already cheery class- rrnm Dn ttlA Iflilf WB II WaS a hr, ntrturi" of Dutch scenes. cleverly made by pasting cut outs imide by the students upon a i9r nir of heavv grey wall paper. patterned unobtruelvely tram anA f fir m n V an excel .lent background for the attached drawings.

Project Imperiled When the commission met with zovernment representatives In February there waa $607,000 for ast highway money allocated on nine projects. Since then action by congress has Imperiled these projects. The house of representa tives has a bill for $6,500,000 for forest highways. Senator McNary has Increased this to $7,500,000 in the senate, but the house has not concurred. It appears that contracts hare been made for the full appropriation in various states for years, but congress 'held back until the appropriation now will be needed to take up deficits. If the-bill goes through at $7,600, 000. Oregon will get only about $150,000 whereas a month ago the highway commission and the government officials worked nut a program for $607,000. U will require an appropriation of $9,- 000,000 If Oregon Is to carry out the forest highway projects re cently agreed on. Answer Telegraphed - In view of the situation, the commission tonight telegraphed the following to the Oregon dele gation, to Chief Forester Greeley and to the director of the budgett "This commission - urges your support of measure for. increase In the amount of appropriation to $0,000,000.

More than 600 students are at tending Willamette this year, near 'y 400 of these having left the ;lty during the week vacation. Many of the students who lived too far from their respective iiomes remained here over the week, some finding employment, and others visiting with friends. Willamette's term will close about June 11 this year. The graduating class will be somewhat smaller than those in recent years, some 80 receiving degrees this year as compared with 90 laet June.

SALES PLAN SOUND INSTALLMENT BUYING AID TO SAVING, DECLARED Y' "Father wouldn't -have had the reaper that made his farm pay; mother wouldn' thave had the washing machine that made her labor easier; sister wouldn t have had the piano that gave her some opportunity for cultural training; and I wuoldn't have had the en cyclopedia that took the place of a college education. None of these things, said a prominent man answering the Ore gonlan'e questionnaire on the value or harm of installment buy Ing. would have been possible if that method of purchasing had not been available. It was related by Walter R. May. representative of the Portland newspaper, in a talk before the Kiwanis club Tuesday noon. The Oregonian's survey showed that the open charge account is more susceptible of abuse than In stallment buying. May said. While holding no brief either way, the speaker declared that the survey indicated that saving was encour aged by orderly buying, that the purchaser is practically forced to budget his expenditures, and that the Installment selling companies have remained prosperous throughout good times and bad. The first man to sell on the in stallment plan was a real estate dealer In ancient Rome, May said. in showing that this method of selling is nothing new.
