' OREGON NORMAL SCHOOL,
Monmouth. July 2. (Special.)
Fourth) : educational , conference
held at Monmouth normal school
Saturday was attended by approx
imately 250 visiting teachers; prin
cipals ana sapermienaents. via
cassions centered about the theme
of better teacher-training. "The
session Indicated the growing- In
terest in the state" for a broader
educational program. The several
splendid addresses brought- out'
the facts that this program would
have . to come from the people
themselves, and the main sum
mary of the entire program might
be the educating of public opinion.
So well was the conference attend
ed by visitors and students of the
school that the assembly In the
training school could not accom
modate the crowd.
- Dr. C H. Fisher, president of
the Belllngham-atate normal gave
an address which was one of the
highlights of the day, an address
which was both brilliant and prac
tical. ' His work at the Washing
ton state normal at Belllngham
has been of such a nature that he
Is recognized as one of the leading
administrators In the northwest
He has been instrumental in put
Ung a very modern course of study

and It was for this reason
that the conference committee en
gaged his services.
Dr. W. H. Burton of Chicago,
although not on the program, was
in the audience and at the close
of the morning session Charles E
Franseen of San Jose Teachers'
collere. unaware of the local) sit
nation, said he would like to hear
from this national expert. The re
sponse from the audience was so
enthusiastic and insistent that Mr.
Barton gave a most Inspiring talk,
He spoke of thcunecesslty of train
ing fine and high minded people
for the teaching profession and the
vital need for idealism In teachers,
Although his talk was entirely Im
promptu, his clear logical presen
tation entirely won the audience.

Fred l. stetson ana ur.
Huffaker of the state university;
Grace . Bridges of Portland and
Charles E. Franseen of California
gave addresses which make the
conference, the most Interesting
and best sponsored by the Normal.
Julia Spooner of Portland closed
the : conference with a clever re
sume of the day's program, stress
ing the outstanding points in each
speakers address. She introduced
a resolution expressing the appre

Thomas H. Gentle ana congratu

- The students, at. Park will hold
a", program this ' morning:.' .Music,
folk, dancing and dramatiiations
of lessons learned during the sea

gram.
President J. S. Landers of the
Monmouth normal school, which
has sponsored the annual summer
schools "for Salem grade pupils.
visited the schools late last week,
and , declared himself more than
pleased with the 1928 session.
Attendance this year, although
lightly short of that last year,
With the advent of genuine
summer weather, the following
brief advice upon ' the care of
babies and little children has been
Issued from the office of the Mar-
Ion county child health demon
stratum and is particularly timely
"Hot weather is the dangerous
period for babies and little call
dren. Not because of hot weather
but - usually' because mothers' fail
to .gtte them' the right care. The
human body, is constantly prodnc
ing a lot of -excess heat which it
must get rid, of in one way or an
other. Babies, and children pro
duce more of this heat in propor
tion than adults. It is more dif f 1
cnlt for them to get rid of It than
it is for adalts because their physi
cal machinery Is hot as well pre
pared to do this.
"The , notion that some parents
stUI have that litHe babies should
wear flannels all the time ' is
wrong. There is no scientific rea
son wny babies need wear any
clothes at all in hot weather
There is no such thing as dressing
a baby too cool In hot weather. A
diaper surely ought to be enoagh
for a baby, and' a sun-suit or a
pair of trunks and a. pair of san
dais to prevent injuries to the
feet for older children.
'Physicians advise systematic
exposure to rays of the sun to de
velop a health , tan, but in ex
treme hot weather, this should be
done in a very guarded manner
and better in the coolest hours of
the day. It is better to keep the
baby in the shade and in the cool
est place that can be found. Par
ents need not be afraid of a little
draft.
"The thinnest kind of clothes or
no clothes at all, and the coolest
and most comfortable place in the
house, with frequent cool baths
and plenty of cool water to drink
are invaluable measures to help
keep the babies well in hot weath
er. Parents should also be very
careful not to feed spoiled foods,
particularly sour or partially
soured milk.

STATION KISSING
PROPER
PAR S
PARIS, July 23 (AP) The
morality or propriety of kissing in
railway stations has been put
squarely up to the police and the
French press faithfully reports
arguments on both sides for the
public's amusement.
The plaintiff is a poet whose
mind -was disturbed, he told the
prefect of police, by the nightyy
spectacle in all stations of young
men and women indulging in long
and emphatic embraces. He said
that he spoke on behalf of moth
ers and their families who must
witness such behavior.
The prefect considered the mat
ter alone and in conference, final
ly deciding that it was no offense
against good taste to kiss a wife,
