Most of the Increased activity has been confined to gold mining, altho eome shafts are now being worked for silver and lead. Even before the president lifted his ban on export gold, the boom was felt. It Is now B accelerated, due to the good foreign price for gold.

ZASU PITTS SHY IN PRIVATE LIFE AS IN' PICTURES By ALAN SON EDWARDS (United Press Staff Correspondent.) HOLLYWOOD. Some idle thoughts on ZaSu Pitts She's known around Hollywood1 as the blue lady, she always wears it In some combination or other. She goes for beach picnics In what is known as the big way. She's as shy m private life as she appears to be on the screen. She was born In Parsons, Kane. Unostenta tiously she is one of the town's beat dressed) stars. She has a canary named Guinevere. Life for her would be a dreary mesa were it not for the huge handker chiefs she is forever toying with or wearing as scarves. The battle still goes on ss to whether she's better In comedy or tragedy. Her name comei from a combination of two aunts' names, Liza and Susan. ZaSu says she did a lot of "scen ery chewing" In school theatricals. Her eyes are very blue. She Is Brio von Stroheim'e favorite actress. All of her schooling was received at Santa Cruz, Cal. She really is a homebody. Routine amusements more often than not bore her. Bridge and par tying are "out." Sne gets a great thrill from looking over a lighted city at night from a hilltop. She's recuperating now from an operation. Philosophy fascinates her, particularly the Asian variety. A German critics' convention recently voted that she and Em 11 Jannlngs were the world's greatest film act ors. So you see how those things go. Her first picture appearance was in Mary Pickford's "Little Princess." She ltkes youngsters and dogs and cats. She likes melted cheese sandwiches and working in motion pictures. BRAKE ON PUBLIC EUGENE. Sept. ai.-(AP) Oregon laws of 1933 making it unlawful to repay debts from tax receipts stand In the way of the public works pro gram for this state, and must be amended or repealed, it was declared here today by Dr. James H. Gilbert, of the University of Oregon and a member of the state advisory board of the emergency public works ad m.nlstrntlon. Dr. Gilbert has Just returned from a regional conference held early this veek in Salt Lake City, and from a tour that included several confer ences on public works projects. The need facing the state must be rcnMOred by the coming special wion of the s'ate legislature if this mate is to benefit from the public work pmsrem. Dca:i Gilbert said Police in Praaue.

(Associated Press Photo) L F The non-high school territory board, created by a recent act of the legislature met last night at the court house to adopt rules and regulations for collection of tuition and trans portation monies. Saturday morning. October 14, was designated as the date of a meeting to discuss the coming budget. Members of the non high school territory board Include Mrs. Alex Sparrow of the Central Point district, chairman; J. R. MacCracken, Valley View; W. H. Merrlman, Trail; A. E. Brockway, Oak Grove, and Edwin Tay lor, Applegate. County School Super intendent C. R. Bowman is secretary, ex-officlo, and has no vote. The board takes over the levying and collection of tuition and trans There was a time in the history of the human race when the only light was the aun, moon and start. After cen turies a way was discovered to make fire and some light eould be had from this source. Later a wick placed In oil was found to give feeble light with little heat, candles were invented after a time, kerosene lamps were the wonder of grandfather's day, finally the electrio light was invented, followed by the highly efficient electrio light of today which is capable of furnishing any amount of light required of it. The proper appli cation and distribution of this light however, has pre sented many difficulties, especially in the home. How ever with the perfection of this new lamp the entire room may be lighted from a single source with a safe, comfortable light that will not cause dangerous eye strain. Turn night into day with this new type lamp. Inspect it at your dealers today. It is not an expensive fixture and makes an excellent and attractive reading lamp as well as furnishing general illumination for the entire roor IR IN BLUE EAGLES BIG PUSH portation monies, heretofore perform ed by the county court and the school superintendent. This is the first year the board has operated, but the levies are old and apply to all county non high school territory and outside the 13 high school districts. It Is estimated roughly that the yearly tuition will be between 65 cents and 65 cents per day for tui tion and 6500 for transportation for the year. The non-high school territory board was created by the last legislature to reduce costs of the two Items, and to systematize school taxes and ope ration. Statistics presented show that the burden of the school cost, as well as other governmental costs, are voted by the people themselves, in special levies. It was shown that a school district will invoke a special levy, ranging from 1 to 30 mills, on the voice of a minority of the district. The county school law now In force in- Klamath, Lincoln and other coun ties of the state, eliminates this fea ture. Figures to be submitted to the forthcoming budget committee will show, It Is claimed, that if the county courthouse was closed, and all the offices abolished, the tax levy would be reduced only about 18 mills. THE CALIFORNIA OREGON POWER COMPANY WOULD LIKE SEAT (Continued from Page One) Many Named Fred Colvlg of this city is one of the Republican aspirants; also Wll Ham Briggs of Ashland and Hob Deuel of this city, former members of the legislature. Carl Y. Tengwald, Ed M. White and Charles Butter field have also been considered, but their attitudes have not been learned. An other potential candidate Is J. 0, Barnes, a student of tax problems! who figured out a sales tax with pro perty offset, that was lost in the shuffle, at the last legislative session. Jackson county political wise-acres say that the governor has not made up his mind regarding the appoint- ments and at .the present time there lc no Indication of what his selec- 1 tlons will be. Hot Lunches Important By Bureau of Rome Economics, U. Department of Agriculture. j Does your child come home for lunch or does he carry lunch to school? Has the school a cafeteria? Does the school serve milk, or any part of a lunch 'for the children? The subject of school-day lunches Is Important to mothers, to teachers, and to every community, especially now as the school term begins. The school child's lunch has much to do with his health, his education, and his behavior, says the Bureau of Home Economics of the U. 8. Depart ment of Agriculture. If your children come home at noontime you serve them a hot lunch. if you possibly can, or at least you serve them one hot dish. You give them at least one glass of milk to drink, unless the milk is used in soup or In cooking something else for lunch. That Is one way to make sure each child, each growing boy or girl gets a dally quota of at least a pint and a half of milk, or 3 glasses day. If the child cannot come home at noon time, and must carry his lunch, then the problem Is one that taxes the mother's Imagination, for the things that can be put In a carried lunch are not very numerous or of great variety. Yet the lunch should furnish Its due share of the child's datly food requirements, and It should consist of food that he will enjoy. Apparently, however, the box lunch must depend on sandwiches, and un less the child can carry a thermos of hot cocoa, or hot soup, or unless the school provides something hot, the box lunch offers, literally, only cold comfort, and a greater effort must be made to have It satisfying. There are many communities where the parent-teacher organizations- have for a long time promoted or maybe supervised school cafeterias, or have seen to it that the children were pro vided with one hot dish at lunch. But there are many other communities where no such thing Is done. It was to meet such a situation that teacher in Maryland "started some thing." She was disturbed over the health and attendance records of her pupils. With the help of the district nurse and the county home demon stration agent, she started lunch clubs. .Although they had to get along with very little equipment and limited supplies, these women suc ceeded In serving one hot dish for the children every school day throughout the winter, and the Idea spread to all the 17 schools In this and an adjoining county. 1. How puzzled Mary Dodd's par ents were! She had always been such bright, vivacious little girl. So full of life and interest in everything about her. And now. . .so lutleu, irritable. Not herself at all I a. "Added bulk?" Mrs. Dodd asked. The kindly doctor smiled. "She likes cereals, doesn't she? Well, why not give her one of the finest cereals I know Poet's 40 Bran Flakes? It's deli cious, and it dott have extra benefits." The strange PERHAPS YOUR CHILDREN TOO may benefit from this delicious cereal Post's 40 Bran Flakes (with other parts of wheat) provides the bulk most systems need . bulk so many diets lack. And ' thus it helps to insure normal elimination ... to prevent intesti nal sluggishness. You'll all love Post's 40 Bran Flakes so crisp and refreshing and delicious. Get a package to day! A produce of General Foods. for School to Children The second year home demonstra tion a genu and teachers raised the funds, and the home demonstration agents trained older boys and girls to prepare the hot food that was served. The third year the parent- teacher association took over the pro ject and made It their own. Teachers report that children gained weight and school attendance la greatly Im proved. Children who had not been bringing lunch came with biscuits or bread to eat with the hot food, and lunch time became a sort of picnic hour. In schools with cafeterias the home economics teachers have a chance to teach the principles of good diet by means of well-chosen menus and by guidance In selection of food. There Is no reason, of course, why the foods the children need should not be also what they like. Appetites can be educated by Judicious guidance. What should be served at school? For a lunch with one hot dish, these are not too difficult, and they are nutritious: Cream of corn soup, quick tur nip soup, split pea soup, oatmeal and potato soup, creamed hard cooked egga on toast or toasted crackers, whole wheat chowder, meat stew with vegetables, scal loped or creamed salmon, Spanish rice, creamed mixed vnfietab.es. scalloped or creamed dried lima beans with crisp bacon. If the lunch club, or the parent- teacher group In charge, can muster the facilities, or If you serve the children's lunch at home, try these menus : Baked potato and bacon, fresh tomato and lettuce, bread and butter, milk, pineapple custard, spaghetti with tomato sauce, bread and butter, milk, fruit gelatin. Milk vegetable soup, scalloped cabbage and apples, buttered toast, milk, raisin cup cake. Creamed fish with vegetables (or meat and vegetable stew), buttered toast, milk, peach or apple tapioca. Scalloped egg plant, prune and cottage cheese salad, bread and butter, milk, broiled peaches., fresh or canned. But If you must resort to the cold box lunch, then here are some sand wich variations always to be accom panied by milk in some form. Sliced hard-cooked egg and salad dressing. Thin slices of crisp broiled bacon may be added. Chopped cooked beef, chopped pickle, salad dressing. Broiled r ase or little Mary Dodd A REAL LIFE MOVIE 1 J a. So Mrs. Dodd took Mary to Dr. Kent.
