"There have been fewer than at any other time since I have been here." said Mr. Hug. He haa been city superintendent at Salem for the paet five years. The recommendation ot Super intendent Hue that Washington school be kept closed at least un til the second semester of the com ing school year, was adopted by the board and the building will not be opened In the fall. A report was submitted to the board by Eaward A. Miller, who has had charge ot organizing the npeclal rooms for unusual pupils. Miller recommended that begin nine next tall group tests be given In the fifth and-sixth grades tor the purpose of selecting pupils. that are unusually bright. The purpose of Miller's recommenda tion would be to allow the bright pupils to progress more rapidly In school than they progress at pres ent. He further recommended that all pupils over 14 years ot age and still in the grades be segre gated and put In special classes by themselves. It doveloped that there are pupils 14 years of age nnd older who are as low as the fourth grade. No definite action waa taken last night on Miller's recommen dations. Soap waa manufactured s widely ueed by the Romans. The elder Pliny, who perished In the destruction of Pompeii, recorded that the manufacture of soap was learned by the Romans after the conquest of Gaul. It Is believed that they learned how to make nnd UBe soap from the Germanic tribes east of tho Rhine. i a To add to quality is one thing. To eSect lower prices is another. But (o do both, in motor cars that were already unmatched in per formance, appearance and value, is an achievement without parallel. This is just what Oakland has accomplished in its new cars. More than 100 improvements have been added, including new Bodies by Fisher, Air Cleaner, Oil Filler, Four-Wheel Brake refine ments and The Harmonic Balancer yet ptius are '70 to '350 lower. The Oakland Six was outstanding before. Now it ranks above and apart, literally compelling preference. Touring Car . . 'IOZ5 '. (Old Price 7 '1095) Coach . .
