MAKHsHIFT SCHOOL BUILDINGS

resolution adopted by the board Of education at
its last meeting gives vivid illustration of the need
for greater school accommodation:
Owing the crowded condition of schools in the
primary and grammar grades-there being forty tenn
porary buildings and sixteen halliday schools besides
many of than fifty pupils-no pupils living
outside Los Angeles city school district shall be admitted
this term to the above mentioned grades"
The turning away of children living outside the
scrbed limit regrettable but that matter is trivial COM
pared with the disclosures in the resolution Forty i'm
provsed school buildings in 1t would be inter-
esting view structures, pictures Of them, but
most citizens have general idea of the "accommoda-
tion" they afford The season of cold damp and rainy
weather just ahead is anything but pleasant
parents to contemplate the discomfort their children
will be obliged The statement that there
Sixteen halliday schools" shows a state of congestion
in line with the necessity for using forty makeshft
school buildings.
AS The Herald has repeatedly urged there should be
systematic provision meeting the constant and rapid
increase of need for school structures. There is
nothing gain but much to lose by this slipshod
tce of waiting for emergencies in school accommoda
ton and then scurrying for schools to be used tenn
porary. 1t is practice that is highly discreditable to
city progressive Angeles is in general respects
1t is plain subject of calculation to ascertain,
proxmatey, what the requirement for school accommo-
dation will be year ahead. On the basis Of
such estimate appropriation should be made every
year the of the buildings needed and pro-
vision should be made for their timely erection
Only by such sane policy will conditions like those
here noted be avoided in Los Angeles.

two score years. The Republican policy of high protec-
ton has such advances in the of building
operating ships that Americans longer can COM

abroad has not advanced materially in foreign ship
yards, while in the United States the advance has
reached prohibitive stage.

BOOTH PRAYs FOR REPORTERS

The following is taken from the
prayer for reporters by Gen. Booth Of
the Salvation army, as printed in the
Aberdeen, Scotland, Evening Gazette:
"And now, dear Lord, bless the re-
porters whose nimble pens catch every
word almost before 1t is uttered. Like
thyself, they are omnipresent and al
most omnipotent. If we take the wings
of the morning and fly to the uttermost
parts of the earth, they are there. They
meet US in the jungles of Africa; they
waylay US even in the Atlantic ocean.
and when we tread the prairies of
North America, behold, they are there.
May their light and their goodness be
equal to their power, and in the gen.
eral assembly of heaven let no reporter
be excluded"

SECRETARY GENERAL
Miss Virginia Miller Is Visiting Local
Chapter and Regrets Her Stay Is
Not to Be for Month Instead Of
Few Days

Miss Virginia Miller national secre-
| tary-generaI of the Daughters of the
| American Revolution, arrived in Los
| Angeles last night en- route from San
Francisco to her home at Washing
| ton.
She will remain in Los Angeles a few
days as a guest of the local chapter
of that organization. A reception III
her honor had been planned for this
afternoon at the Womans club house.
The fact, however, that their noted
visitor arrived a day or two later than
was anticipated may, it is said, result
in a postponement of the reception to
a later date.
This is my first visit to the west"
said Miss Miller at the Angelus
shortly after her arrival last night,
"and 1 can't tell you how much 1
have been enjoying myself. AS a dele
gate to the convention of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy held in
San Francisco last week, l was royalty
entertained. We hear much of western
hospitality in the east, and henceforth
L can vouch for it.
IL do not know how long L shall
stay in Los Angeles. From what 1
have heard it possesses attractions in
the way of climate and scenery that
makes one 10th to leave it. 1 regret
a few days"
Miss Miller, whose sprightly manner
bellies her grayed temples, speaks en-
Enthusiastically of her work. For years she
has taken the keenest interest and has
actively participated in all the work
done by the great patriotic society of
which she is a prominent officer.
I'VE are working hard to complete
our memorial continental hail." said
she. when completed it will be one
of the finest buildings in Washington.
Already over $150,000 has been expended
on it and when finished it's total cost
will approximate $275,000.
1T is a great pleasure for me to
meet with the members of the western
chapters. 1 find that the members on
the coast, at least those L have met,
are as loyal and enthusiastic as those
in any of the eastern branches of tile
society"
Previous to her election as secretary
general, Miss Miller was the national
vice-regent of the order. She is a
member of the Mary Washington
chapter, the third in the history of the
society. She is also a member of
various other organizations.
1t is seldom that the local chapter
has had an opportunity to extend cour-
tesies to so high an official of the ma
tional organization and the coming Of
Miss Miller is an event of more than
ordinary Importance.

The beautiful home was elaborately

ing hostess conceived a delightful
change in the ordinary run of dinners
by entertaining her guests during the
early part of the dinner hour in the
dining room and inviting them to ad-
journ to the beautiful enclosed veranda
for the later courses.
Green and white was the color scheme
in the dining room. White chrysanthe-
NUNS and ferns were banked in various
parts of the room and arranged in
pleasing profusion on the table. The
table centerpiece was a mound of green
grapes and maidenhair ferns resting
on mirror. Diamond dust scattered
over the whole made the arrangement
especially effective.
The porch was arranged in Japanese
effect with a large Japanese parasol
suspended from the top of the ceiling.
Place cards were dainty hand-painted
affairs bearing some joke applicable to
the person whose place it marked.
Bamboo, pink carnations and smilaX
were used in the hall and library, and
the same kind of greenery was COM
bined with red carnations in the draw

SCHOOL TEXT BOOK ROW
Injunction Sought for by Paper House
of BonestalI, Richardson
G. Co. Denied
BY Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 12.-Judge
Seawell today denied the injunction
sought by the paper house of Bonestall,
Richardson & Co. against Secretary of
State Curry, Deputy Attorney General
Post and State Printer Shannon to re-
strain them from letting the contract
for furnishing paper for the state text
books to A. Zellerbach & Sons.
The complaint asserted that the de-
PENDANTS had been allowed to bid upon
an inferior quality of paper, and the
defense asserted that as the contract
had been entered into there could be no
restraining order. The judge held that
as the plaintiffs did not claim that the
required statutory provisions had not
been carried out, it is supposed they
were, and the award of the contract,
therefore, was Just.

NEEDS OF FILIPINOS
Senator Long Declares They Require
Freer Trade With the
United States
By Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-In the opin-
ion of Senator Long of Kansas, who
made the trip to the far east with Sec
retary Taft and party the greatest
need of the Filipinos is freer trade with
the United States. The senator talked
with the president today about the
needs of the Philippine islands.
Recently" said the Senator, "the
Filipinos suffered from the typhoons
and drought. AS a consequence their
crops have either failed or been wiped
out and they are becoming discon-
tented. Their discomfort does not take
a revolutionary form, but is simply the
result of existing conditions"
Senator Long discussed railroad rate
legislation with the president briefly
He expressed the belief that the matter
would be disposed of early in the ap-
preaching session.
