WOMEN'S CLUB NOTES
A most Interested mid appreciative
group of women gathered nt tho Inst
neighborhood meeting of tho social
hygleuo department of tho Greater
Medford club. Dr. Myrtle F. Lock
wood, chairman of tho department
gavo an Informal but exceedingly
practical talk on tho Diet of Children.

food nnd tho value of each. 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

A committee from tho educatlonnl
department ot tho Gt cater Medford
club with Mrs. Fred Mean as chair

ter of having mora and better firo ox

found tho board most courteous and
willing to recelvo suggestions from

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
