Of this amount, $ 40,800 u given by the federal povernment under the provi sions of the Smith-Hughes education al act. This cum is matched, dollar for dollar, by the state of Oregon, while the school districts must match both the government and state on the The law provides that the truant officers of each county must assist the school authorities In furnishing the names of all children coming within the. provisions of the act. A law enacted by the Jegislatore at ita recent section provides that all children between 14 and 18 who have not completed elementary grades mutt attend school at least one honr a day. It is mandatory on all school boards having at least 15 children thus employed to establish those part- time schools. The schools must be operated between 8 o'clock A. M. and 6 P. M., and the law specifically pro- videa heavy penalties for those em ployers who refuse to permit children to attend these schools. The one ex ception allowed by the law ia to child ren attending night schools. Under certain condtions they are not requir ed to attend the part-time schools.

The story opens with Raffles in pursuit of an international swindler aboard a ship. He wishes to get a ruby which the swindler has. He has discovered it in the heel of the swindler’s boot, and jumps overboard to escape detection. He is seen by Mrs. Vidal (Christine Mayo), an 'English society woman. Raffles reaches shore, and returns to Eng land, where he meets Mrs. Vidal, and she falls in love «with him. They meet at Lord Amersteth’s home in London. Lady Amersteth has a priceless necklace of jewels known as the Melrose jewels. There is discus sion about the amateur cracksman who has robbed many of the rich of London. The jewels are shown in Raffles’ presence. Raffles is in love with Gwendolyn (Evelyn Brent). Mrs. Vidal threatens to expose him if he desn’t return her love. A detective is engaged to guard the. jewels. Captain Bedford (Frederick Perry) is introduced to Raffles as the detective. He declares he will catch the amateur cracksman.
