JP3TGE FOUBTEEST MEDrORB MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRID'AT, 'APRIL 7, . 1933. CLOTHING PRACTICAL AID TO Clothing clauec at Mtdford high school Instructed by Mlaa Maurine Carroll, have been meeting the eco somte needs of the Individual girls throughout the year. The course is of a practical nature dealing with the different phases of home clothing problems such as se lection of types of clothing, construc tive processes and garment making, care and repair of clothing, darning, mending and patching, removal of tains, and home cleaning and reno vation of materials. In addition to this the advance our offers the girls advanced dreumaklng, tailoring, costume de sign, study of line and figures, col- on and color combinations and the study of textiles and materials. The entire course thia year has been adapted to the individual girl's needs and the class work has been centered around make-over problems, Those girls unable to buy new ma terials have worked on make-over projects. It has been the aim of the department for every girl to make over at least one garment, oommn ftng new and old materials If neces' ary. Beginning this week, each girl is devoting some of her time to the welfare work of the community. The problems to be considered are baby garments, children's, girls' and wom en's dreses. The material used Is ob tained through the local Red Cross chapter and the finished garments are to be turned In to the Red Cross tor distribution. Throughout the entire year the craps of material have been saved from the different problems and have ibeen turned in to the welfare bureau to be used In the making of quilts. Upon completion of the two years' course in this department, a girl should have an earning oapaclty as a seamstress, and with more practical experience should be able to work in alteration departments, and also to make her own garments.

(AP) The belief the Monmouth Normal school should be abandoned and It work combined with the University of Ore gon or Oregon State College, was ex pressed here by Dr. William J. Cooper, United States commissioner of edu cation, a Portland visitor today. Dr. Cooper, whose headquarters are In Washington, D. O., was en route to San Jose, Cal., from Spokane. He addressed several meetings here to day before continuing southward. Teachers' salaries, he declared, is one of the most lively discussed sub jects throughout the nation, and he said that where the cost of living ha decreased, he believes corres ponding cut in teachers salaries and other reductions are not out of line. Dr. Cooper Is quite familiar with the higher educational system of Oregon, having been a member of the aurvey commission, which recom mended the unified system of educa tion for schools after having made a study of them In 1030. This com mission recommended closing Mon mouth Normal and Dr. Cooper feels this Is a needed step. Discussing salaries, he said ' the big trouble will be that when the cost of living starts up again, teachers' salaries, which have been hit very hard recently, will not go up at the same time. They will lag be hind several years and there will be no rush to put them back where they were bofore the depression drove them down.
