KEEPING WALLS SWEET
WITH wHITEwASH

Many housekeepers can and do paper
the side walls, but it is not an easy task
TO paper the ceiling. SO for those who
wish to whitewash it instead, here is a
good whitewash: Procure cents worth
Of powdered blue, scald over night with
one quart Of boiling water. In the morn
ing add one quart of SKINNED milk,
which makes it smoother and leaves no
streaks. Mix well. 1t is not necessary
to apply 1t by any particular method, SO
long as there are no bare patches left
and the ceiling is equally covered. Any
splashed on the paper rubs of easily.

BY FRANCES sHAFFER.

Dear me, It does seem that the New
York School Board and the men and
women teachers in that big city are in
q perpetual state of strife over something
or other. The call for equal pay for
equal work" had hardly died away be-
fore the motherhood talk crept in; and
with that satisfactorily adjusted-at least
to the teacher-yet another comes along
10 upset them
And this time it is said that the
Federation of Women's Clubs IN that
city is taking a stand.
As one OF the women teachers tells the
story of the latest clash, 1t involves a
situation that comes pretty close to
women who teach all over the world and
TO women who work in any capacity
where there should be a chance to step
higher up. For it all hinges upon a
question of promotion.
Two recent vacancies in the prtnci-
palship of girls high schools were filled
by men, although there was no lack OF
women teachers, experienced. qualified,
and praying for promotion. The protests
were more or less silent then, but now,
with another vacancy at hand, the
women are telling why they think they
should be counted as factors in the
principalship of girls high schools.

SALMON UP THE WILLAMETTE
Tributary of the Columbia Is Well
Stocked With Fish, Accord
ing to Reports.

Salmon are ascending the Upper
Willamette in larger numbers than for
years, says Lou Rahbun, deputy fish
warden, who visited Oregon City re-
Gently and reported that schools OF
the fish were jumping up the ladders
provided for them at Willamette Falls.
During the winter corporations en-
gagged in logging above are permitted
to place gates across the upper end of
the ladders so as to conserve the
water supply, and owing to high water
1t was not until recently that the gates
were removed this season, SO the
passage of the fish was delayed. Mr..
Rathbun says that the salmon go up
stream to where the Mckenzie river
is reached, as there is a state fish
hatchery on the latter stream. Anglers
are permitted to within 200 feet of
Willamette Falls, so the travelling sal
mon are not disturbed gaining the
upper river.-Portland Oregonian.
