THE DAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1919. PAGE THREE RYTH1NG IN EVE READINESS FOR SCHOOL MONDAY ' With thi tnllinir of the. hour of 9 'clock Monday 'morning, 3000 school r '.' esuldren, more or less, in Salem will tie ! reporting for th opening day of tho fall term of school which will continue with but few holidays until the com mencement of the following June. Unless the pupil has completed the eighth grade, and happens to be under the age of 18, there is no way of get ting away from at leust a fair educa tion. The legislators .early in iia ptisi-, Constance cd tews intended to wipe out illiteracy Portland. entirely in Oregon. The new law goesJ into effect this fall and part time schools, for those Who are backward, will be established. Already Superin tendent' John. W. Todd has arranged for. these .suecial schools. Vocational training will also come In for inore attention the coming year, due to the desire of the 1919 legislators to give the boy or girl special epportunl ties in'work that is practical. While there has been a cry of distress from some localities for lack of teach ers, Salem has been more fortunate and the teaching force is now complete, with a total of 110. ' One year ago on the second day aiwtr the opening of school, there was an at tendance of 519 at thejrigh school build ing." Already there have registered 80 ore pupils for the course than last year and the indications are that tho building will be taxed to the utmost. And this is true of all buildings tho nnoTincnrfont savs. One year ago, many families were still in Portland and other shipyard cities, and it so happens that the sihp.yards calico, ine lauorui with the largest families. Now all is charged. Almost every habitable house in tho city is occupied and it is felt one of the big problems will be that of caring for the increased, attendance. Tho loss of attendance due to families Moving away from Salem one year ago may be. noted in'the total attendance of the second day, which was closely esti mated ut only 2138. In 1917, the at tendance pn the second day was 244o ,i !. T,.-isti7UiH had run mora than 8000. eral science Miner & Elwell bookkeeping, . text, in troductory course $1.30.'

Stocks have been arranged in two de . irtments or stations by which large numbers can be cared for at once at the Salem Bookstore in the Argo hotel build ing. Old books should first be taken to the exchange department, where a speci fied exchange price is allowed for each. The muni is then given a credit slip for the value of the books returned, and ys the purchase of new books, this sliii ia credited on the amount. Every trans action is cash. However, no cash will bo paid out on old text books brought in for exchange. In order that the junior high or sen ior high school pupil may know, just - what books will cost and what will be allowed on old books, the school book commission of the state has fixed the following exenange values v"r Wcntworth & Smith, geometry, 56c; Myers History 33c; Botsford Ancient ' History 33c; Jamcs-Sanford American m kistory 36c; Brooks' English history, both book 1 and 2, each 39c; Aberna thy's American Literature 50c; Formaut American Republic 32c; Essentials of Winlnev hv Hunter 18c; Elements of Chemistry by McPherson ?8c; physical Geography by Hopkins 25c; Agriculture by Warren 28c; Bookkeeping part 1 by Lyons 26c; Essentials of Latin by Pear ion 20c; Bennett's Latin grammar 20c; and Caesar's Gallic Ware 32c. With these credits figured out and the looks to be returned, the student may ' ' easily figure out the amount of cash will be required as the price fixed by the state school book commission on the ' aew text books is as follows: nr.n. ti . 1,'irth aohnnl nlffAhrA VTUllU-XittlV, uc" e - U.20.

Tho administration of tho University of Oregon announces that. owing to the large number of girls who have regis tered, especially the unexpected num ber of freshman, that the university will have to eall on tho sororities and clubs, as in tho past, to assist in hous ing this entering class, . ; It is the policy of University of Ore gon to take care of nil freshmen girls on the campus under direct university supervision. To this plan the sorority groups have acquiesced, though an many cases it means financial hard ship. . : At the state university the housing facilities have never been adequate, and- the fraternity system jkas arisen out of the neecssit" of the students to make homes for themselves. At Eu gene this year there is only accommo dation for 180 girls on the cnintms, in cluding the quarters at Hendrirks hall and two' large building near by that have been rented as annexes. Nearly 300 girls have asked the university for shelter, so the authorities are obliged to turn for help, as they have so ottcn done before, to the sororities, and they ask them to fill their houses to lapac itv. The total enrollment of girls will bo about 600 this year. In the near tu tor the state will be called on to furn ish the .University of Oregon with, at least one more womon's hall of Tesi denco.
