Charles L, Pick has L E Will Rent and Equip Rooms to Relieve Congestion Due to Outside Pupils The board of dircctois of the .Salem school is in about the same fix as the i woman who lives in a shoe and had so j many children she didn't know what to i do. ' On account of tho new state law whereby outside districts may send their iiilvnnep.l tmt1a (n lin Sintnn, their advanced pupils to tho Salem schools by the payment of a tuition, the enrollment of pupils has been increas ing faster than the accommodations, especially in the higher grades. The junior high schools have in creased in attendance on account of tho vocational trnining, and this with those coming from the outside, has crowded the senior and junior high schools. To avoid the necessity of sending third and fourth grade pupils of the junior high schools to the outlaying schools and in order to make room for the increasing attendance of the pupils in the junior high schools, after the problem was discussed from various angles, it was decided as follows: The ninth A grade of the Washing ton junior high school will attend ut the senior high school and tho building committee was authorized to rent and equip rooms near the Lincoln and Grant junior high schools. It was made a matter of record that these temporary I arrangements were made to meet the : .resent emergency. ! According to this solution of the i problem, all third and fourth grade I . : i m, i . . .i . . . . . pupns niu iiuenu at mo same school as during tho last semester. By this arrangement 107 pupils in the ninth A grade of the Washington school will at tend the senior high, beginning next Monday and arrangements made for 3-1 pupils of the Grant and 52 of the Lin coln to attend the same school as in the pi!.t, but to take up part of their work in rooms to be rented near their school. The big problem facing tho board of directors is how to properly take care of the increasing enrollment of the three junior high schools and the senior high, and not break into the organiza tion of the junior high school system. This could be done by sending many third and fourth grade pupils to out lying schools, but this plan is found ob jectionable. I l'ortlaml faces this same trouble and has solved it by the building of movable i school houses that can be re-built mid j taken to that part of the city where neeiieu. Director Lee, as well as the other directors, feel that the new state law is working nn injustice to the Salem schools by permitting pupils from out side districts to enroll hero and over crowd the junior highs and senior high schools, but ns the schools nre now un der a state law, nothing can be done. As a director, said, the interests of our smaller children are of more importance than the educating of those from the outside. Anyhow, as it was n condition and not a theory that confronted the board, the ninth A of the Washington school will attend the senior high, and with tho renting of rooms nenr Grant and Lincoln, the other ninth A grade pupils will be taken care of, and the little ones will continue to attend the same school us iu the past semester. And the big problem, of how to handle tho increasing enrollment of the junior schools nd seior high still confronts the board. been appointed to represent the Salem Commercial club. From this first meet ing at Albany, it is hoped that a per manent organization may bo effected whereby the commercial organizations may act together in matters of special interest to tho Willamette vallev. The movement originated with the Allmnvh I v iiiwuvi;i,ii C1UO. n Beginning classes will be organized in all of the elementary and junior high school buildings Monday, January 31. All pupils who are six years old and those who will be six years of age be fore March 1 will be received. Super intendent Klliott says that it is im portant that beginning pupils start at the opening of the semester. Teachers have been instructed not to receive be ginning pupils after Fcbrunry 25. Pa rents arc requested to start beginning pupils at tho earliest possible date. W. B.

John Scofield, the high school stu dent who was charged with robbing the mails, was indicated yesterday on two counts by the federal grand jury at Portland. He is alleged to have taken in currency from a letter addressed by John llartmnn, of Salem, to J. C. Mar tin, of Portland, and a $5 check from a letter by S. J. Kuuffmnn, of Hubbard, to Secretary of State Olcott, for an au tomobile license o According to reports from Washing ton, flax raised in the Willamette valley is tho finest produced in the United States. In a session of the committee on agriculture of the House, Dr. L. H. Dewey, of tho bureau of plant indus try, declared that the Willamcte flax is the finest produced In the country and his testimony was corroborated by Dr. Taylor, chief of the bureau, who also appeared before tho committee. Seeds of all kinds from all parts of the world are at tho disposal of fann ers who would like to try something dif ferent. While nt the Panama-Pacific exposition, O. E. Freytag, as commis sioner from Oregon, had the oppor tunity of collecting seeds from exhibi tors of foreign countries and would be glad to give away n few samples to those who will take the trouble to write him at Oregon City." It might show n proper appreciation on the part of those who ask for some of the fancy foreign seed, to enclose a few postage stumps, instead of saying, "thanking you in advance for the favors asked." Rana H. Allen said today that he positively is not a candidate for re election as representative from .Ma rion county, aud that furthermore, he is not a candidate for any office whatso ever. Rumor has it that Thomas Hrown of Salem, is a candidate for re-election and that A. G. Steelhammer of Silver ton, is w illing to become n candidate for representative. Mr. Keech of Stnyton, is also n prosperous candidate for rep. resentativc and Sam Brown of ner vals, is to be a candidate for re-election. There is also a rumor that 11. F. Mclnturff and Fred S. Lamport may come before tho people as candidates for the legislature at the primaries on April 18. Martin W. Hawkins appeared as one of the incorporators of the Elite Restau rant Corporation for which articles were filed today at the office of Corporation Commissioner Schulderman.

Whether he in tends to hurdle the tables with a rush order or not is not stated in the articles of incorporation. The L'loctrie Heater company also filed articles of incor poration nt a capitalization of $10,000. and the P. H. Holt Piano company filed notice of dissolution. All were." Port land corporations. The Mr. Reuben Mining company -was incorporated at $100,000 with a principal office in Port land to conduct mining operations in Josephine county. At Ye Liberty Today Lillian Lorraine, the star of "Should a Wife Forgive?" the Kquitable pro gram at the Ye Liberty Theatre to day and tomorrow, has' developed in this wonderful screen production nn entirely different phase of her drama tic ability from that which brought her stage fame ns n star in several New York productions. The story is full of tense situations, and has a plot in which love, intrigue, recklessness, disaster, remorse, and the righteous in dignation of a wronged wife, follow each other in a series of wonderfully beautiful scones, full of thrilling ac tion. Tho stnge settings nre far be yond those of the ordinary screen play in realism, and the absorbing story is presented in a manner which will fns ti;n a grip on both the. heart and mind of every one who sees it. Ella J. Metzgar Is Political Candidate Dallas, Or., Jan. US. Tt is reported that Mrs. F.lla J. Metzger, president of the Dallas Wonuu's club, will seek the republican nomination for joint repre sentative in the state legislature from Polk nnd Lincoln counties, contending with W. J.

Dunsiuore, who was llilk's represen tative for 10 months at the Pannma I'ttcifie exposition, has innounced his candidacy for the republican nomina tion for comity clerk. He will doubt less be opposed for tiie nomination by 1'. J. Holnian, present county treasurer.
