Sho gnvo many suggestions as to tho kinds of food to bo given young children mid hints ns to their proper preparation. Oatmeal should bo cooked thrco hours mid bread to be wholesome must bo thoroughly baked. Lentils woro named as val uable, but often neglected addition to the diet. A list of don't Includo'l tho advlco not to overfeed children nt ono tlmo which Is sometimes done by giving too great a variety at ono tlmo, not to allow eating between luenls nnd not to give any sugar but Instead to use such sweets as figs or dates. Mrs. Nobllt read n papor on tho "Unfolding of tho Mystery of Llfo to Children." Tho beauty of tho won derful story was mndo plain ns sho traced tho development of llfo from the plant mid lower nulmala up to tho human being. Special emphasis was laid on Uio crying need of beginning this teaching with very young chil dren not Inter than four or flvo years so thai by tho tlu0 the child Is ready for school ho will bo so fortlflod wltn wholesome, truths that evil sugges tions will havo no effect excopt to Bend him to his niothor for ho will lmve learned thnt all things nro pure and that his natural and right ques tions will bo carefully unsworod, A llttlo book culled "Songs of Llfo'' to bo found nt tho publlo library or at tho stores, will be most holptul to tho young mother who moots thla problom and solves it Instead of lot ting tho mnttor slide.

A committee from tho educatlonnl department ot tho Gt cater Medford club with Mrs. Fred Mean as chair man met with tho school board Tues day evening and presented tho mat ter of having mora and better firo ox capes placed on tho different school buildings In tho city. This plan mot with the approval of the board and they appointed Mrs. B. B. Goro, Dr. Sccley and Mr. Lawton as a commit teo to visit tho school buildings 'and mako a thorough Investigation ami report tho samo at tho next board meeting. Tho committee of ladies found tho board most courteous and willing to recelvo suggestions from tho school patrons and anxious to co operate with them tn bringing; ' the school standard up to the very bt on the western coast. It was learned that In tho years 1913 and 1914 all those taking the eighth grade examinations passed, and out ot forty-six applicants In tho high school forty-five passed wltn high honors. Thla seems to havo been tho best record for a school of, equal sizo 1n tho stato. Tho board made a saving ot $2000 In 1913 and Jn 1914 they hope to bo ablo to save about $5000, but In no way Impair tho efficiency of the schools, for the employment of In efficient Instructors to reduce tho expenses would, they feel, bo poor economy. The principals, Janlto-s and all ochool boys over fifteen years ot ago have set apart the second Sat urday In April to grade tho block on South Oakdale avenue so tho basket and football teams may have & placo to practice- Instead of renting grounds. A great many aro sending their children from tho smaller neigh boring towns and tho surrounding country to the Medford high school. It Is necessary theroforo tor Medford to keep and make hor high school tho best In tho Roguo river valley. Why not establish a union poly technic school here in our fair cltyf Tho crowded condition of the high school Is such that at present they aro using a class room for tho assem bly room lor the now class just en tering.
