Tooze, state senator from Clackamas county and managing editor of the Oregon Statesman, etated that "the modern home Is failing," in au address before the Salem Ro tary club at Its luncheon at the Marion hotel this noon. Tho subject o. Tooze's address was "The Homes of Today and Yesterday." "We hear upon every hand that the American home is disintegrat ing, that there is danger ahead," said Mr, Tooze. "Formerly there was work for the boys and girls to do at home," he stated. "They had dishes to wash, wool to split. Children were brought up in the wholesome atmosphere of the home. Dut today we find that the schools are teaching them all these things. The home lias given over the prerogatives that it once had. "One ot the results of modern life is to create a period of idle ness for the child a period when he haa no work to do, and the Idle mind is the devil's workshop. School athletics, social life, as well as modern theaters, all add their part to the general rondtlions."

Koport was made by Superintendent George Hug of th action taken by the student council of the high school student body, as reported yesterday. Des pite the taot that the council had voted 7 to 4 against paying; any part of the coach's salary, it was obvious that ths board still 1 hope that this year's arrangement will be continued another season During the present year $650 has been paid from the student body treasury, and $456 by ths board. Hollis Huntington, ths coach, h two study hours at high school day, for which theoretically he la paid the $450 by the board. The $650 paid by the students is sup. posed to cover his work as coach No definite action was taken by the board with regnrd to payment of the coach's salary last night, the matter being left until the next meeting. It is expected that an effort will be made to persuade the students to continue this year's arrangement. Students have stated that if the board is willing to as sume full financial responsibility for building the new athletic field east of Parrish junior high school, they may be able to pay part of Huntington's salary. The board definitely went record as favoring the policy of allowing residents in the lmraedi ate vicinity of the McKInley school to use the sewer leading from the school building. Olinger and Sim oral were appointed to estimate i reasonable charge, which will be levied against house owners who use ths sewer. It was Intimated that the charge will probably be between $15 and $20 for each house. Reasons given for allow ing the use of the sewer was that the community near McKInley school will have a better chance to develop in case sewer facilities are available. At present the com munity is outside the city limits, and the line from the McKInley building has been constructed far as the end of the city line which stops at the city border. The naughty earwig may be put ting in his appearance at any time now, warns County Fruit Inspec tor Van Trump and It behooves the gardener and housewife to keep a watchout for the enemy. Generally he does not come out until about the first of June hut with the earlier season, he may make his advent plan sooner than that. Van Trump suggests that crar- doneVs could do a world of good in watching for the earwig by keping an eye out when the ground U being turned over. The earwig, about GO in a brood, hover about two i .ches under ground 'uring the winter and early spring season. If the gardener turns up a nest of them, the nest can be wiped out with hot water. The usual poison will be pro vided this year and the usual cam paign made when the enemy ap pears. Died LANSING C. F. Lansing died at his home on Garden road, Sa lem, Tuesday nlRht.

It can be done. It was said, by appropriate action on ths part ot the. board of trade and the pro mulgation of rules calculated to prevent over-speculative trading.

In the public Interest, to suggest ad ditional legislation, giving to the department authority to meet the situation effectively.
