Increases In prospectors and others
attached to the Industry also have
been noted.
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.

IN PRIVATE LIFE
AS IN' PICTURES

(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.

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

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

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.

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.

ents were! She had always been such
bright, vivacious little girl. So full
of life and interest in everything

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
