Not only Is the slate uf Oregon
Impoverished us to funds used In
education, hut unequal distribution
In the rural dlnti-lcts, Ih a fact
worthy of careful study and Im
proved legislation, according to
Helen Hcffornan, of Hacramcnlo,
chief of rurul divlHlon thruout the
state of California, who was the
principal speaker during the mor
ning session of the teuchui-N' Insti
tute ut the senior high school to
day. MIku lleffernun showed tho ef
fect of dlNlrlct control of the
school to be In most cases n luck
of finances per capita student,
While in some few wealthy Mh
ti'iclH, more than sufficient funds
were lavished upon the schools
housing Miuull student hod I ph. In
California, she brought out, a large
portion of the money uxed to sup
port the schools Is obtained by a
levy upon the slate us a whole,
which provides for a more eiiual
distribution of rcHourccs for edu
cation. "When we speak of the country
child, we mean 57 percent of the
ontlre elementary school enroll
ment, taught by U4 per cent of
the elementary teachers in 111 pet
cent of the elementary schools of
this country," said Miss lleffernau,
who en iled by suylng that the
inltgniiudo. of tho problem Is not
generally appreciated, and that
the InequulllleH between urban and
rural education are not pointed
out to prcHeni an uncHcapuhle
picture.
t.'HVe might speak of tho great
problem In rurul education of pro
viding economical school units,"
she said. iust year we made a
nurvcy of one rural county and
found that the building costs In
that county were I BO per cent
more than they would have been
if the same educational facllltleH
had been provided by taxing the
whole county as a unit and follow
ing the plan of 'pay us you go',
rather than passing tho debt on
thru bonds."
.More than 300 teachers had reg
istered ut tho Institute by this
morning, represent Ihk pruct 1cm lly
every eb nientary and secondary
school In the county.
After all a person can not be
lieve all that la heard or neon,
even though evidence Is most con
vincing. A gltuation which seemed
to have the earmarks of tragedy
developed yesterday to be only the
well planned tuho of a transient
woman to gain help through char
ity from place to place, and was
exposed through Miss Lillian Rob
erts, executlva secretary for tho
County Ited Cross chapter.
She gave her name as Florence
: Heed when she appeared Saturday
i afternoon at the office of County
Judge. Sparrow, declaring "be had

plaintively In tho lobby of tho

The woman hud a knack In tell

drumming Incessantly on the table, j
She Indicated weariness in her j
speech and left the Impression she 1
would be the Ideal type for a
grandmother role In a heart throb
bing moving picture. Her clothes
were tho worse for wear and her
hair showed snow white, as It
slipped from under tho protec
tion of a shabby hat.
The woman who appeared nt
least 70 years of age, declared she
had no children and no kin on
whom to rely during her declining
years.
She was referred to the county
Red Cross chapter and It then
developed that Mrs. Jteed was uj
visitor In Med ford last April under
similar circuinstunc.es.'' She had
lost her purse that time, but under
a different name, said Miss Rob
erts yesterday,, if Mrs. llalley, old
time Medfordt resident, said she
believed t lie 'same woman had

years, and during that time hud
lost her purse on several oma

such ah object of pityt declares
she Is only fit!, and according W
the Red Cross chapter, has dill-1
dren who are able In take care
of her, but. the wanderlust seems j
to have clung to her.
This case was pointed out as one:
of several that has coino to the u'-!
tendon of the Red Cross, where j
unworthy claims for cbarlt v are j
regular occurrences, the claimants
making their way through life on
