Pors!biy you are looking for . fellow
who doesn't dance or probably one who
only dances occasionally. Well. play
q; the dances, both private and public.
I could tell lots that have seen that
would disgust most people with dancing
!, for. one, dance very little. do not
care FOR IT, But would certainly be
pleased to meet Wondering" I am a
Lover o. all athletics and sports OF ali
kinds, as | participated in them FOR four
years IN college. II Wondering" would
be so Kind as 10 enllghten me who she
might be ! would be very pleased. I
quite agree with her that 'jazz hound"
s an awful specimen OF man. With
his cutaway vest jazz tie and the rest
OF the things that go TO make one up.
Dancing does not help the health. nor
Is Il good exercise. The character OF
some nice gil Is sometimes lowered
Simply because she insists upon yolng
around with these "jaEz hounds" I
sincerely hope that Wondering finds
the right fellow and that he treats her
right, as ker views are certainly IN the
right light. Hoping TO hear from YOU
real soon, I remain,

THE American living in Paris rushed
l. into the plumbers shop for assist

"Ah, madame" she cried. "Do not
tell me your husband Is OUT
But ! will attend to II myself,
madame" replied the French woman,
calmly shouldering a bag of tools;
And she marched into the house,
mended the broken pipe and went her
way as II II were all in the day 8

In France they become partners In
every way when they marry.
The Frenchman who falls In love con :
siders his sweetheart's business ability
and worth of her talents along COM
mercial lines quite as seriously as he
does her beauty, her amiability and her
home making qualities.
As soon as they are married she goes
right into his shop or his business or his
trade.
We thought 1t was wonderful, during
the war, that the French women kept
on with their husbands business until
their little shops we're demolished by
enemy shells.
But, after all, wonderful as all
French women we're In the war. this
part Of it was "all in the days work" 4;
they always had taken part in their
husbands work.
TT SEEMS funny to US, a queer, for

But 1t wouldn't be bad idea at all
for some Of our American marriages to
try a large dose Of this partnership

THAT HIGH SCHOOL

Yes or no, how shall | vote? You
alone can tell. AS there has beer
but little said or done about this
measure, and as some questions have
been asked about it, wish to say
there is but little to be said.
First, | would say it is not for the
purpose of increasing your taxes and
| would not say it will lower them a
great amount, that is on the whole
1t will equalize them. If the meas.
ure carries, that is, if the majority
vote YES we will all be taxed alike,
for then there will be uniform levy
the county over, while if The measure
is lost, that is, if the majority say NO,
that means that there will be at least
seven different rates Of levies, one
in each of the six high school districts
and one in the territory that is in no
high school district. We will all have
to pay a high school tax, but The rates
will not be the same if we work under
the HIGH SCHOOL TUITION FUND
LAW. We are under that law now.
If we vote NO on June 7th, this not
only means that there will be seven
ulliSlSuI latSo iOT TdlSlllS ulSu SCHOOl
money in the county but it means that
a part Of this money will be sent out
of the county. That is to say, some of
1t will go to Portland, Salem, Eugene,
or some other out side town. While
il you vote YES, that means that the
money raised by a uniform levy will
all be used in Lincoln county.
That you may know more about the
high schools and the manner of rails.
ing the money for them, | would ad-
wise that you read all Of CHAPTER v
except the last section, for it has been
repealed. This chapter begins on page
1877 Of the 1919 school laws. II you
will read CHAPTER |, beginning on
page 124 Of the 1919 school laws, you
will then know what we will work
under Of the majority vote YES.
Again | would say, if you believe
in uniform levy the county over and
spending all that money in Lincoln
county vote YES, but if you think
best to have the seven different levies
and then sending apart of the money
out side of the county to build up
high schools in other counties then
vote NO. n. P. Coin,
