REDUCTION ON IDAHO
WOOL RATE IS Per CENT

Olympia, Wash.-The latest move
in the northwest wool rate case now
pending before the interstate COM
merce commission became known
here today when the carrier filed tar
ifs prescribing reductions in wool
rates from interior points to the At
lantic coast ranging from II to Is
per cent The changes are said to
apply to all railroads in the territory
and are designed to become effective
June 6.
Hance G. Cleland, state supervisor
of public utilities, said that the rates
do not meet with the expectations of
the state department, which joined
with the Washington Wool Growers
association in a complaint to the in
terstate commerce commission against
a violation of the long and short haul
clause. CIeland declared, however,
that his department will assume no
authority in the case as the matter is
now in the hands of the federal COM
mission.
Under the schedules received today
the rate on wool in sacks from Ell
lensburg to Boston would be reduced
from $3.50 to $2.99 per 100 pounds;
the reduction from Spokane to Boston
would be from $276 to $2.35, and
from Lewiston. Idaho, it would be
from $2S1 to $2.39. Rates from 9TH
er points in eastern Washington and
Oregon and from Idaho and Montana
would be in proportion, it was said.
The present rate from Portland to
Boston is $1.6675.

AN ABUNDANCE OF FLOWERS

The grounds surrounding the H. R.
Smith home, at the corner of Polk
and D. Streets, are now veritable

SOLVE PROBLEMS THRU
APPLIED Christianity

Des Moines, Ia.-Solution of civic,
Industrial and international prob
lens through applied Christianity
would seem to be the paramount
task of the church," Rev. ]. Ross
Stevenson told the general assembly
of the Presbyterian church in the
United States of America here today
in presenting the report of the special
committee on church cooperation and
union. To promote such solution
"a universal conference Of the Church
of Christ on life and work has been
in 1924 Plans for it are making sat
isfactory progress.
"A committee has been formed in
three sections, representing many
Christian communions in continental
Europe, in the British Empire and
the United States of America" Mr..
Stevenson continued,
"The purpose is to concentrate the
thought of Christendom on the mind
of Christ as revealed in the Gospels
towards those great social questions,
industrial and international, which
are so acutely urgent in every coun-
try The nations are yearEing for purer
politics Industrial unrest is produc-
ing chaos and confusion. The basic
motives of citizenship need strong re-
enforcement In international affairs
men are seeking anxiously for per-
manent peace and deeper fllowship.
We belive that the message and teach
ing of Jesus Christ afford the only
solution. To set ourselves to dis
cover His will and under the guidance
of His spirit to find wise ways to APP
ply His teaching, would seem to be
the paramount task of the church"
Mr.. Stevenson also reported that
a committee is planning definitely for
a world conference on faith and or
der, which is expected to be held in
1925, probably at Washington.

er the white pine blister rust is yet
to be found in the Idaho forests. This
disease has not been reported in this
state, but owing to the great import

desired to take every precaution pos

territory.

q STUDENTS in

Twenty two high school students
are enrolled in the Moscow high
school summer school which opened
this morning, according to announce
ment by Fulton G.. Gale, principal of
the Moscow high school. Courses are

vantage of the summer school work.

Be Held JUNE 2-3
RULES GOVERNING PRELIMINAR-
les FOR APPLICANTS FOR
3RD GRADE CERTIFICATES

Miss Lillian Skataboe, coounty su-
perintendent of public instruction, an
nOunces that the annual June teach
erS' preliminary examinations will be
held at the court house Friday and
Saturday, June 2 and 3. The prelim-
mary examination is for those only
who are to attend summer school. If
an experienced teacher from another
state, who by rule of the state board
of education is exempt from summer
school attendance, elects to waive
such examination, she may enter tie
preliminary examination and thus be
given an opportunity to pass off ele-
mentary subjects and may devote the
time in summer school to the secur-
ing of grades for certificate higher
than the third grade, depending upon
the amount of teaching experience.
Such teacher, although permitted to
attend summer school, according to
a statement given out by Miss Skatta-
Doe, is not required to take the meth
cd course, the assumption being that
such requirements have been met in
another state.
In the case of Idaho teachers who
have held third grade certificates in
the past, Miss Skattaboe announces,
If they are willing to attend summer
school, not relying upon an exam
ination therefrom because of previous
teaching experience, they will be al
lowed to work for another third grade
certificate if they meet the same re-
quirements as do experienced teach
res. If they claim exemption from
summer school attendance, and have
already held one third grade certifi-
cate, they must qualify for a second
grade certificate, which means an ex-
animation in both third and second
grade subjects.
The announcement Of summer
schools for teachers, issued by the
state board Of education, has the fol-
lowing to say regarding the secur-
ing of third grade certificates:
candidates for third grade certif-
icates must, prior to entering the
school for the professional training
of teachers as defined by law, have
passed an examination in the academ-
grade certificates.
Applicants failing in any subject
In the preliminary examination will
nave the privilege OF anOtneE exam
inatiOn in that subject at the regu-
lar July teachers examination. But
preparation for the July examination
will not be permitted to interfere
with the full nine weeks work in
methods. Candidates for third grade
certificates who do not take the pre-
liminary examination will not be per-
mitted to enroll in the professional
courses given for those who expect
to teach in the fall of 1922"
