SALEM. Ore. (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.

TRAFFIC LIGHTS
BtTJTALO, N. T. (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."

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.
