Every available source of diti, such as state employment Krvice, state and local school of fset! and other agencies, was care fully searched by workers, and the result is a complete picture of the Imitation and population status of Oregon. One of the most striking find fcn is that the natural rate of in- Ireise m Oregon is rapidly dimin ishing. This rate rose from 4.8 per Iiiousand in 1910 to 9.0 in 1920, but a 1936 fell to but 1.5. In 1936 births exceeded deaths by only 1502. and if the present trend con- lunues the native population may I soon show a decline. Excluding re- I cent immigrants, the number of Ictildren under 5 years of age in Oregon was 10 percent smaller in 1)37 than in 1930. Based on gains from natural in crease and from net migration, the estimated total population of the "ate on January 1, 1937 is set in fte report at 1,057,700, or 35,700 Iirierthan the U.

I -11 lam THE HOUSEWIFE By CLARENCE V. SIMON Give her some apples, a little flour, some sugar, shortening and spice, and she produces an apple pie which can qualify as poetry unocr any man's rules. The ar rangement of her furniture, the Krouoing of masses and colors in her living room, form a pic ture of com fort more soul- isatisfying than 'any painter ever produced. She takes the growls of an ir ritable husband, the sharp de mands of the bill-collector, the sputter of grease in the frying pan. the high whine of the vacuum cleaner, the wail of n fretful baby, the rattle of dishes in the sink, the tap-tap of the loose shade in the bedroom, the chatter of her K ving machine, the shrieks of school children and the drip of a leaky water faucet for her orchestra. Her sole instruments are the softly singing tea kettle and the crackle of the fire on the hearth. And with love and patience and understanding and with her own heart-beat setting the tempo, she welds these plsin, familiar sounds into the superb symphony which we know as "home." And Toscanini him self never produced such tranr cendant harmonies. Poet, artist, musician, as well as nurse, efficiency expert, cook, dress-maker, buyer, teacher, dietician, economist the Housewife is America's No. 1 citizen.
