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

Based on gains from natural in
crease and from net migration, the
estimated total population of the

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.

as nurse, efficiency expert,
