r. i. a. Activities
"Adolescent Problems" will
be discussed in small groups
at the regular meeting of the
Junior High Parent-Teacher As
sociation to be held Tuesday
evening at 7:30 In the school
auditorium. This should be one
of the most interesting meet
ings of the year as the subjects
cover the many problems with
which parents have to cop in
this day and age.
We feel very fortunate In
having Mr. Mayfield, principal
of senior high to discuss "Disci
pline and Authority." This is
Mr. Mayfield's first address at
junior high and it will give
the parents, whose children go
over to senior high at mid-term,
a chance to meet him and get
acquainted.
Following Is the program:
Rating with the crowd. Miss
Delia Whisenant; What are late
hours?, Mrs. Herbert Sims;
Money problems, Mr. L. W.
Marshall; School grades, Mrs.
A. Brockway; Discipline and
authority, Mr. Mayfield; Spiri
tual interests, Mr. Kirtley,
Parents may join the group
that meets their needs and may
enter into the discussion or
merely listen. After the small
group discussions for 15 min
utes the speakers will give a
resume of their subject before
the entire assembly.
Refreshments and social hour
will follow.

The Executive Board of the
County Council of the Parent-
Teacher Association were enter
tained at a Christmas luncheon,
by Bessie F. Elhart, president
at her home in Ashland recent
ly.
The house and table was a
picture of Yuletide, with the
Christmas spirit predominating
everywhere.
The year's work was re
viewed, and it was found that
Ashland had gone over the top
with membership, having more
members by far than they had
in any previous year. It really
means something to Parent
Teacher work to see member
ships increasing and the work
going on and one.
Plans for the County meeting
at Eagle Point January 17th,
were discussed and it is hoped
every member in the county
will be present.
A report of the magazine
committee shows a decided in
crease in subscriptions to the
National Parent-Teacher, and as
this is the text book of the as
sociation, it shows that interest
in the objects and standards of
the work is increasing. Each
unit registers their magazine
chairman with the headquarters
in Chicago and they in turn
send material direct to the
chairman, and Jackson county
is way in the lead of all other
Oregon counties in their sub
scriptions. Each one gave Mrs. Elhart an
expression of thanks expecting
to meet again at Eagle Point
for the County Meeting January

Washington, Jan. A. VP)
Oregon asked Uncle Sam yes
terday to bill the state for any
thing it may owe the federal
government and to pay in full
obligations owed the state.
It does not want debts sub
tracted from payments due and
vice versa.
Oregon State Treasurer Wal
ter E. Pearson sent Senator Mc
Nary a government check for
$41,815, representing 50 percent
of grazing fees due Oregon
counties. He complained that
$424 had been deducted as
money owed by the state for
taxes on gasoline paid by fed
eral employes.
He said the comptroller gen
eral's office demanded the $424
in a previous letter. Part of the
payment was approved but the
governor vetoed the approval.
Pearson contended the federal
government had no right to re
sort to these methods to force
collection of the money.

have died "a poor man."
"His wealth had withered

assassination attempt.
As he wbs being driven in
his automobile on Avenue Haig

route to his office, two men
pulled jinrikishas into the path
of the machine.
When the car swerved and
slowed down, the men fired pis

piercing the car.
Phillips dropped to the floor,
and his chauffeur sped ahead.

Shanghai In 1934. As chief of
the executive council, he re

Chinese consider reading in
the bath unpardonable because
"the written language, having
been invented by a saint, Chong
Chieh, is sacred, and because it
is composed after the style of
the Great Sage, Confucius,
says a Chinese columist. Read
ing in bed, he adds, is also con
sidered improper, though it is
not quite so serious an offense
as reading In the bath.
