These marks or punches carry documenta ry evidence of its place of manufac ture, its quality, the date and name of the maker. This system of mark ing has been in effect in England since 1300, when the Goldsmiths’ guild was first established to pro tect the public against fraud by stamping with a steel punch all gold and silver plate. Before a piece of silver is offered for sale by a silversmith it must be assayed by the Wardens’ guild. If the quality is satisfactory it is stamped with the symbol of the town where assayed. In London this is the leopard’s head. Other assay of fices were established toward the end of the Fourteenth century at Edinburgh of which the mark is a thistle. The anchor stands for Bir mingham and the crown for Shef field. In addition to the mark of quality there must be the initials or private mark of the maker. The quality, the place of manufac ture being given, the next mark add ed is a date letter. Beginning in 1660, on May 30 of each year, a new punch was, and still is, made for the 12 months following. Every piece of silver assayed bears one letter of the alphabet which tells the date when it was made. In Lon don a cycle of 20 letters is used, beginning with A and ending with U, the letter J being omitted. The style of the letter and the shape of the shield surrounding the letter is changed with each cycle. There will be a very important | meeting for all farmers at 10:00 a. I m. on Tuesday, January 27, at the I Columbia park hall on small seeds, | | forage, and hay crops. There will be a similar meeting at the Stanfield ■ Grange hall on the same day at 1:30 | p. m. At this meeting, Lawrence Jenkins, assistant farm crops specialist, Ore gon State college, will discuss out look for the small seed industry, pros pective new seed crops, and new in formation on pasture and hay crops. | Kenneth Gray, department of ento mology, Oregon State college, will al so be present to discuss insect con trol on the small seed crops and any other crops. I Mr. Jenkins will discuss farmers | machinery priorities as related to the | small seed and hay crops according | to the latest information that is avail- I able on that subject.

M. Sommer er, Mrs. H. J. Harding and Mrs. Otis Buell. Holdover directors are Mrs. W. A. Mikesell, chairman, Mrs. A. W. Turnblad and Mrs. A. E. Bensel. The business report for the year showed some decreases. Both the cannery and laundry are operated at a minimum cost to patrons and have been operated as a service to the com munity for many years. Most Vegetables Lose Vitamins by Long Storage Will cooking “kill” vitamins? This is a question that can’t be answered by “yes” or “no.” An article in the Journal of Home Economics summarizes research conducted at several colleges. Vitamin A, which is an absolute essential to good eyes, is lost from most vegetables by long storage. In the case of sweet potatoes, however, storage definitely increased the A content. Ordinary boiling caused no loss and increased the A content in string beans and carrots! Freezing caused no loss, but drying robbed spinach of Vitamin A. The researches indicate that vita min C, which prevents scurvy, is destroyed to a greater or less extent by heat, light, alkalies and some metals. Acids and sugars have a tendency to protect C. But storing foods at room temperature, or boil ing, caused high losses. Refrigera tion seemed to conserve a goodly portion of this essential, while pas teurization and irradiation robbed milk of 50 per cent of its C content. Less definite information was available on vitamin Bl, although there are indications that it will withstand a considerable amount of boiling, according to the best au thorities. them a little more for decency and health, but neither of these are spon- sored by the Townsend clubs. There will be many candidates run ning for the state legislature that will sponsor some bill for the benefit of the old age assistance. Our members probably will vote to help put men in office who they think will do some thing to help: but so far we, the Townsend clubs, are not sponsoring any bill in the state. PUBLIC MEETING TOWNSEND CLUB NEWS SET FOR By Mrs. Joe Udey In last week’s issue of the Herald an article, written by Mr. Williams, stating that Townsendites were spon soring a tax on cigarette, slot mach ines and pin ball machines to raise funds to pay old age assistance. Some one may be misinformed, thinking that the clubs are back of a state is sue. We want everyone to understand that Townsendites individually did work for the cigarette tax, and may vote for most anything that will give •Kindergarten'—German Heritage A little over a century and a half ago, there was born a man who made a mark upon the educational systems of his time that has en dured, undimmed, to this day. He was Friedrich Froebel, consid ered by many one of the greatest of educational reformers, who, in 1837, in the little village of Blankenburg, near Keilhau. in Germany, started an institution whose fame soon echoed and re-echoed 'round the world. Froebel’s youth had been com pletely neglected—he furnished his own best and most horrible ex ample of how not to be reared. Believing that children should be educated through play, through oc cupations which delighted while they developed the senses and the body and guided the affections—ideas deemed revolutionary—Froebel con ducted his class in a room opening on a garden. For the name of his type of school, he invented the term “kindergar ten”—a German composite meaning literally “children’s garden.” FRIDAY (Continued from Page One) last city election is qualified. Election will be held at the public library between the hours of 8:00 a. m. and 8:00 p. m. Judges will be Mrs. George Harkenrider, Mrs. B. J. Nation and Mrs. Paul Bracher, and clerks, Mrs. Roy Hale and Mrs. Ger ald White. Hermiston taxpayers have shown considerable interest in the forthcom ing election and discussions can be heard at every corner. Below appear some of the questions which are be- j ing asked, which are answered by W. | J. Warner, city attorney, through a courtesy to the Herald. Question: How are the sewer and water bonds to be paid? That has not been definitely determined, pro bably in 25 years, one-twentieth each year beginning after 5 years, or pay ments may begin after two years. Question: How much will the con nection charges be? Nothing except that each person will have to pay for his own connection to the sewer. This is estimated to cost about $1.00 per foot. Question: Will there be monthly rates and how much will they be? Yes, probably $1.00 per month for or dinary dwellings and more for busi ness places making more use of the sewer. Question: Will everyone be com pelled to connect with the sewer? | Probably not, at least for some time, but the City Council and the State Board of Health would have authori ty to compelí use of sewer. Question: Is there any possibility that a lien or mortgage be placed on city property if the revenue is not sufficient to cover the cost?

Chicago. There are three strips of these in- verted U-shaped barriers, which are 8 inches high when hydraulically raised and level with the street when lowered. When the traffic rush is toward the business district of the city, the separations can be adjusted to provide three two-car-abreast lanes one way and one lane in the opposite direction. Three double lanes can similarly be established for the outbound evening traffic. NOTICE!
