NO LOW NECK FOR TEACHER
Superintcndent Puts Ban on Abbre-
waited Waist and skirt

Butte, Mont.-Short skirts and low
necked waists are out of place in the
school room when worn by members
Of the teaching force and were re-
ferred to as wearing apparel abbre-
Waited at both ends, which must be
worn no more in the state school"
by superintendent Downer at a gem
eral monthly meeting of teachers.
The superintendent did not attempt
to specify just what a teacher should
or should not wear AS to the exact
meaning of a low uecked waist, the
teachers assert that the superintend-
ent did not mean a waist without a
collar.
They believe that he meant, per-
haps, a sailor waist without the shield
or a shirt waist turned in" at the
neck sufficiently to warrant the fear
among the children that teacher
might catch cold"

, LIBRARY NOTES. =
; Q . Q . 90 80 y

The daily statistical record Of the
books issued from our public library
shows a splendid increase in the cir
culation, during the past week 415
books were circulated and on Satur
day alone of last week 1873 books went
into the various homes of this city.
Perhaps larger number of the
books of fiction are represented in
these figures than we might wish
there should be, yet when we consid-
er that the population of Pendleton
includes very few of what is COM
monty termed "the laboring classes" J"
that there are libraries in one half
of the homes, and that most of the
people are reading for recreation only
it is not surprising that our fiction
runs ahead of our class book circula-
tion, yet there is a growing demand
for the non-fiction books and Fact
and Fable in Psychology" Mental
Hygiene" every Man a King" and
Pushing to the Front" are quite as
popular as the latest novels "The
Harvester" "The Winning of Bar
bara Worth" or "The Iron Woman" "
Now that the planting season" is
here the following list of books may
prove of interest to some one:
Garden making: Suggestions for
the utilizing of home grounds
Landscape gardening" as applied
| to home decoration.
"Sweet Peas" a complete treatment
of the cultivation of the sweet pea.
Success with Small Fruits"
We also have a good many books
on dry farming" irrigation and
! drainage, wheat and alfalfa raising.

Los Angeles.-An anticigarette bill
to be introduced in the next session
