(UP) It coat I77.B0 , to educate each grade school and I high achool pupil in Oregon during the year 1033-34. a reduction of 128.07 from the average four years before, the peak year in educational expendi tures. Charles A. Howard, state super intendent of public Instruction, sstd today. The per pupil cost In the grades 1 was 173.01, and In the high schools, 87.89. Howard said. In 1029-30. when the total expendi ture for education wa approximately 5.500,000 more than It was last year, the costs were $91.65 for the grades. 142.39 for high schools and 103.87 for combined average, figures showed. "Low per pupil cost Is not necessar ily an Indication of efficiency." How ard said. "In counties which are sparsely populated and must trans port pupils long distances, the costs are of course higher. Costa were low- r last vear Decause or smaller salaries paid teachers and greatly diminished expenditures on buildings." The figures were based on average dally attendance reports of pupils, current costa and Interest on bonds and warrants. Due partly to a shortened school term, Lincoln county had the lowest per pupil coata last year. In the grades the figure was 631.53; In the high schools $61, and the average came to $30.98. Highest costs were In Jefferson county where of 14 schools all but three had an average enrollment of only eight students. Howard said. Grammar achool costs were 131.32; and the average was $126.80. Harney county, however, had the highest high achool cost. 9118.88.

(UP) Kim. a mournful-eyed cocker spaniel, Is set ting the lead In dog faahlona. He veara a pack saddle, equipped with lights similar to those on a motor cycle. Malcolm Balrd, Kim's master, ex plains: v "The lights glv Kim th greatest possible freedom at night with some degree of safety In orosstng streets. You can't expect motorists to see such a small dog crossing a street In the dark but the light eliminates tbat problem. "In addition. If Kim plays hide and seek at night and keeps me out when I want to go to sleep, I can find him easily through the light. "I thought of the idea sometime last winter when on a particularly cold night, Kim decided to wander off a bit. I didn't want to whistle for him and disturb the neighbors and I didn't want to leave him out all night In the cold. He returned several hours later but I decided never to let that happen again." I CHICAGO (API Now that times are getting better, divorces will in crease, says Judge Rudolph Desort. dean of the Jurists who listen to matrimonial troubles in Chicago. "As prosperity returns, the yearn ing for freedom grows strong," he avs. "It is a condition which has been noticed after every depression." But. Judge Desort exempts one group the 100,000 Cook county mar rlnees performed In 1930. '31 and '32. "They accepted each other, know ing that stniKcle and hardship faced them." he says. "They have learned to work and to sacrifice together, and this experience has cemented their affection and loyalty for each other." Couples married In normal or boom times, he says, found the de pression a test and many failed. "Mutual misery held them to gether." he says, a "spirit of toler ance and fair play" was extant with the result that divorce courts Idled along. E OF I GET K3,57J MIXES CITY. Mont.
