Board Not Satisfied As To
Decision Concerning
Actual Cost
Outlining an efficiency plan which
will save the city many dollars in the
support of the public schools, Suerin
tendent Todd presented a new system
of junior high school control to the
board at its meeting Monday night. The
plan will be put into operation, at tho
beginning of the fall term. According
to it the school year will be divided in
to three periods of 12 weeks each, in
stead of the customary two 18 week
periods. Below is an estimation of the
saving which the new plan will effect.
The time for study and recitation in
the different classes will be increased
51.5 per cent, in the seventh and eighth
L'rades. The buildincr snncp will Km nun.
served to such an extent that a sixth
grade will be placed in each of the jun
ior high schools of the city. There will
be no extra expenditure of money, and
there will be no great alteration of the
present rooms.
The new plan provides for the elimin
ation of the alternate day program
which is now in use, by which pupils do
not recite every day iii certain subjects,
and substitute therefore the establish
ment of the work on the short course
system. It also provides for a re-arrangement
of studies in the ninth grade,
which will save the dindientinn nf nk.
jects and the consequent expense. The
addition of one teacher to the Washing
ton junior high force, and the elimina
tion of one teacher from the entire city
iorce win dc tne only change in the
teaching corps.
ay the new system the day will be
divided into eight 45 minute periods,
which will bring the dismissal of school
at 4 p. m.
The other business which was trans
acted Monday evening concerning the
question of the tuition case which was
decided by the supreme court some time
ago. A warrant was received recently
from County Superintendent Smith
which paid for all the money allowed by
the supreme court with the "exception of
interest on the bonded indebtedness on
the high school. This interest, the
school board claims, is money expended
and therefore have retained Smith and
Shields as their counsel to determine the
exact, meaning of the supreme court's
decision.

The meat probe is planned to delve
deeply into the workings of tho pack

tions. This latter, it was stated authori
tatively, will be subjected to "partic
ular scrutiny."
The breadstuff's investigation will

combinations of baking interests. The
commission believes there have bcenj
"illegal agreements" to decrease thej
size or weight of bread loaves.
Any evidence tending to show com

immediately turned over to the depart

Each of the five divisions will be un

all.
Cooperating with these six experts
and the extensive field force of the

Plans Pleasant End
for This Old World
Paris, Feb. 21. A new kind of end
at the world has been imagined by
I Louis Rabourdin, a French scientist.
Sometimes is has been suggested that
tho world will gradually become cold,
so that life will be frozen out. Mr.
Rabourdin thinks it possible that tho
earth might end in an incandescent
I blaze
The earth's crust, he says, is very
thin at the bottom of the sea, and, if
it should give way in consequence of
volcanic action, the earth might be con
sumed in flames.
"Suppose," he states, ' that, follow
ing an extraordinary twisting move
ment, due to retreat of the central
mass, a large mass of the sea bottom
should give way, and, falling suddenly,
should let in the mass of the oceans'
(waters upon the incandescent interior
matter. The water would be decompos
ed bv the heat, the hydrogen would.
burn, and it would burn more as it had
access to more oxvoen.
"The conflagration would then gtiin
gradually in force, accompanied by
electric pheneniena, and the greater i
part of the earth's crust would prob-1
ably be displaced. The earth passing;
through a critical epoch and returning
for the time being to its formative pe-j
riod, would again be nothing but a
globe of fire.

PRESENT SITUATION
Crop Shortage and High
Prices Rapidly Depleting
Supply
Referring to tho potato situation
which confronts all buyers and sellers
of this crop, Mangis Brothers, potato
dealers, of Salem, have this to say:
Reports 'from all the potato growing
states of the middle west as well as
Oregon, Washington and Idaho indicate
reduced acreage on account of seed
shortage and growers should secure seed
how before all of the best stock is
shipped out of the state. With potatoes
selling at the highest prices in history
there is a temptation to sell all the best
stock and plant the culls, which is cer
tain to result now only in a greatly
diminished yield, but. in the production
of an inferior quality of potatoes.
It is poor economy at any time to

you lose $50 at harvest time.
There are only a few varieties of late
potatoes for which there is a commercial
demand for shipment. First and always
best are the Burbanks, then come Gold
Coin, Xew Oregon, l'ride of Multnomah,
American Wonder and Netted Gems and
for early seed Early Rose and Early
Sunrise.
Oregon is indeed 'fortunate this year,
conditions were ideal for both quality
land yield and owiug to crop failures in
the potato growing districts of the mid-
die west we have established a market
both east nnd south at the highest prices
we have ever obtained.
Next year we cannot expect to be so
fortunate as to price but by selecting
pure seed of standard commercial va
rieties and paying still more attention
to grading we can get a quality that
will sell in anv market.
Ready for Meeting
of Endeavorers
Arrangements are very nearly com
pleted for the big Christian Endeavor
convention to be held in Salem Friday,
Saturday and Sunday. The young peo
ple in the United Brethren, Evangelical.
Presbyterian, Congregational and Chris
tian churches have been very active in

providing for their entertainment.
The convention will be called to order
promptly at 10 o 'clock on Friday muin-
ing in the Christian church, the head
quarters of the convention- On Friday
evening a reception will be given the
delegates in the old armory at the city
hall. On Saturday afternoon a hundred
automobiles will be used in showing tho
delegates about the city. The Presby
terian, Christian and Congregational
churches will serve banquets to the dele
gates on Saturday evening. On bum-fay
evening a mass meeting will be held in
the armory and the chief speaker will
be Dan Poling, an Oregon boy, who by
his ability aud talent has become the as
sociate president of the Christian En
deavor societies of the world.

gates. The Commercial club urgently re
quests all business places to decorate
their show windows in red and white,

wide awake young people of Oregon.
