RED CROSS TO PROVIDE
HOME FOR THE BOYS
Cannot Go Home When Out Of
Trenches, But Red Cross
VIII Provide for Them

A point brought out by some of the
campaign literature furnished by ma
tional headquarters of the Red Cross
war fund movement, that is too easily
overlooked and ought not to be, is that
the Red Cross will be the foster par
ent of American boys in the trenches
A bulletin which reached local head
quarters today, reads as follows:
"When our men 90 to France, we
must not only prepare to take care of
them when sick and wounded; another
very serious problem win confront them
and will confront us in our care and
forethought on their behalf. English
men and Frenehmen, when, from time
to time, they are relieved from their
grim duties in the trenches, go home.
The soldiers from other countries on
the firing line cannot go home; there
is no home to go to. Our American sol
diers must have a home in France, some
where to rest, somewhere to find
friendly atmosphere. somewhere to 90
for recreation and wholesome amuse-
ment The Red Cross must--and it alone
can-beeome a real foster parent of our
soldiers while they are in Europe To
perform that function well will require
a large sum of money -

A Cheering Incident
of Moring's Work Of
the Red Cross Teams

When the members OF the teams who
are doing their level best to prevent Sa-
lem from being a 'fslacker cityv in
the matter of the Red Cross war fun,
get discouraged because those they APP
proach turn deaf ear to the appeal Of
stricken soldiers and sailors, even
though it is a matter Of common in
formation, that the deaf ones have ac-
cumulated ample means by the protec-
tion of the stars and stripes, then some
thing like this happens to put the heart
back in them.
Miss Margaret Wishart, whose merci.
full ministrations as a nurse have bless.
ed many. household in SALON., visited
headquarters this morning with con
tribution to the fund Of $5. Question
ing brought out the fact that Miss Wis
hart has given $3.50 to the British Red
Cross during the last three years. Up
to week or two ago. four of her broth
ers were at the front in the British
army. There are but three now, for one
has given up his life to the defense of
his country In addition Miss Wishart
plans next fan to give up six months of
her time and service to the American
Red Cross.
Loyalty, devotion and sacrifice are a
long way from being out-of f-date. What
is entirely obsolete in these stirring
days is the spirit of hard skinned self
ishness that can't see the flag for the
overpowering overshadowing of the
bank account.

THE annual SCHOOL
BOARD MEETING Held
Financial Report Submitted
Showing Satisfactory Con-
ditiOns---Other Work

The annual school board meeting held
last night at the high school was at
tended by the usual large number of
citizens, the five directors constituting
the majority present. However, the law
had to be complied with and the meet
ing was held in due and legal forme
The report of the finance committee
showed that during the past year $177,-
|01695 had been handled in the way of
receipts and the sum Of $176,S69.56 dis
bursed. Vouchers for every dollar
spent were ON file.
Besides submitting the annual fin
ancial statement to the good citizens
Of the city, the board elected two new
teachers and transferred principal.
The new teachers are Paul Irvine, of
Joseph, Ore, to become principal of the
Lincoln Junior high school. Principal
H. F. Durham, of the Lincoln junior
high school, was transferred to the
Washington junior high school, succeed
ing Prof. F. S. Gannett w. A. Hail
man, of La Porte, Ind, was elected for
the manual training work of the Wash
ington school at salary Of 500 a
month. w. D. Fletcher was reelected
as superintendent of the physical train
ing departments Of the high and Junior
schools at salary of $40 a month.
The wood proposition is still staring
the directors in the face and it promises
to be a fairly big one as no one seems
willing to submit bids for the 500 cords
needed. The question is still unsolved
and the board passed it up to the. sup
ply committee.
The salary Of Merritt Davis, who has
brought the commercial department OF
the high school up to its present high
standard, was subject of discussion.
His salary now is $40 a month and a
motion was made to make it $3.50. Thee
motion failed to carry. The salaries Of
some Of the special teachers Will be
discussed again at the next board meet
ing.
The financial report showed the in
debtedness of the district as follows: II
Bonds issued April l, 1911, for ~
years at 5 per cent, $l4,650, refund VI.

Hunah! How's This
Cincinnati authority says eorns
dry up and lift out
with fingers.

Hospital records show that every
time you cut a corn you invite lockiaw
or blood poison, which is needless, says
a Cincinnati authority, who tells you
that quarter ounce Of drug called
freezone can be obtained at little cost
from the drug store but is sufficient to
rid one s feet of every card or soft
corn or callus.
You simply apply few drops of
freezone ON a tender, aching corn and
soreness is instantly relieved. Short
ly the entire corn can be lifted out,
root and all, without pain.
This drug is sticky but dries at once
and is claimed to just shrivel up any
corn without inflaming or even irri-
tating the surrounding tissue or skin.
If your wife wears high heels she
win be glad to know of this.

tive to the general interests of the

dowment of Philomath college in keep
ing with the action of the Columbia

at its recent session bonded itself for
$4,000 endowment to the same institu-
ton. This with $4,000 legacy of the
Baker estate to which the college fell
heir a year ago win do much to ad-
vance the educational facilities of Philo-
math college.

Well, suppose you make start
By accommodating wisdom in the scrap
book of your heart.
Do NOT waste one page of folly;
Live to learn and learn to live;
If you want to give men knowledge
You must get it ere you give.
Do you wish the world were happy
Then remember day by day
lust TO scatter seeds of kindness as
you pass along the way;
For the pleasure of the many may
Oftimes be traced to one.
As the hand that plants the acorn
shelters armies from the sun.
