WOMEN ADVOCATE
MOTHERS SCHOOL
Plan Proposed by Berkeley Su-
perintendent Indorsed by
Many Matr0ns

BERKELEY, March 3.-Although the
no steps for the Incorporation of
mothers school as part of the general
scheme for education, the women of the
mothers clubs have indorsed the idea
and probably will urge its adoption
Mrs. Thomas H. Seabury. president
city. declared today that hygiene and
sanitation were the safeguards of the
home and that she was heartily in
favor of the school for mothers as
suggested at the last meeting of the
board by Frank F. Bunker, superin-
tepdent of schools.
Mrs. f. E. Pierson, president of the
LIE Conte school mothers club, is an
other advocate of the plan suggested
by Bunker. She said:
1t is appalling, the Ignorance OF
some mothers in regard to even the
minor and commonest complaints
among children. This seems to be
general among all classes of women.
Personally. believe that Mr.. Bunk
ers plan will receive the Endorsement
of the clubwomen and that they will
be glad to cooperate with the school
department in this project"
Mrs. Edward Preble White. acting
president of the parents association of
the high school, said that on account
of the fact that many young people
marry when they are not equipped for
home making mothers school would
be invaluable.
II believe that the school will be a
vital aid in the home of the future,
said Mrs. White, "and offer a solution
to many of the problems of the home"

READY TO WORK FOR
ACONvfNTION HALL
Oakland Chamber of Commerce
Committee Outlines Plans
for Campaign

OAKLAND, March 3.-That all the
preliminary plans had been completed
10 start a public campaign for the erec-
zen OF a mammoth convention hall in
this city was the declaration made by
~ c. Craig of the progress and pros
perity committee of the chamber of
commerce at the weekly luncheon of
the Tri City rotary club in the Hotel
Athens today.
We are ready to go ahead with the
work OF creating public sentiment in
favor of the project" said Craig. and
from all indications that will be a
comparatively easy task Thus far no
dissenting voice has been raised
against the scheme and the city Of
ficisls and large property holders are
III in favor of it,
1T is our plan TO build an auditorium
which shall have an ultimate capacity
of 10000, but which shall be fitted with
movable walls, so that it may be di
vided into several separate halls in
which different meetings can be held
simultaneously. There is no doubt in
my mind that the proposed building
would earn at least ~ per cent on
the money invested in il.
There are at present only two con-
Vention halls in the west capable of ac-
commodating great assemblages- These
are in Los Angeles and Denver During
abe recent convention of the Elks in
Los Angeles the visitors spent about
s20o, 900 a day during their stay in the
city and the convention was directly
responsible for attracting people to
the city who invested in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000. .0e0'
Other speakers at the luncheon were
Rev. Ernest c. Poole, assistant pastor
or the First Methodist Episcopal
church. who described New Zealand and
its government, and John Aubrey Jones.
who read a speech on The Amity of
Nations" delivered by William Jen-
nings Bryan in Peru.

UNCLE SAM PUBLISHES HIS OWN
LITTLE NEWSPAPER IN CANAL ZONE


Uncle Sam can boast one lonely
government newspaper. This pa
per is not a mere official bulletin,
like the Congressional Record. It's
real newspaper with columns de-
voted to baseball and duckpins as
well as official matters. Also 1t
has a society column.
This organ, edited and published
by the United States of America,
is called the Canal Record. 1t is
the official newspaper of the canal
zone. 1t Is issued every Wednes-
day, and, as befits the newspaper
that Is an earnest Of the newspaper
of the millennium, it Is issued
free to the people of the zone.
Each government employe in the
zone gets a copy every week.
The Canal Record is three-col-
umn. eight page paper. According
to the testimony of its caption, it
is published weekly under the au-
thority and supervision OF the 18TH
milan canal commission. Its sub
scription list includes call en-
ployes OF the commission and the
Panama railroad company whose
names are on the gold roll"
In the current issue there Is an
interesting story about the fabrica-

Internal dissensions which are
now being aired In legal circles
threaten the disintegration of the
only scout movement outside the
Boy Scouts Of America, the big ma.
tional organization whose tactics
and discipline are recognized In
the scout lessons published by The
Press.
The American Boy Scout, which
is under investigation by District
Attorney Whitman of New York at
the instance Of its founder, William
Randolph Hearst, has no connec-
ton whatever fifth the nationally
recognized Boy Scouts of America.
The latter organization was found
ed by Ernest Thompson-Seton, the
well-known nature writer, along
the lines formulated by himself and
General Sir r. 8. s. Baden-Powell
for the Boy Scouts of England. 1t
quickly attained the pre-eminent
position among the various scout
movements launched in the United
States through the voluntary &C.
cession Of such strong organiza-
tions as the Boy Scouts of the
United States, headed by Colonel
Peter Bonus, and the Bay Pioneers
founded by Daniel Beard.
The American Boy Scout, found
ed by Mr. Hearst and published
through his newspapers, remained
outside this movement, and has
never, In any way, been affiliated
with the Boy Scouts Of America.
