thorities are asking be voted Nov.

Compared with ~ cities Of SIM

under financed school systern,
Goold said. The average cost per
pupil here is sei.7o. The average

Only ~ Pot Here
Under financing. Goold con-
tinued. reduces facilities. increases
warrant indebtedness and leads 10
salary cuts and personnel troubles.
All schools draw revenue In the
same manner. but Spokane and Sc
attic obtain more than 30 per cent
from local sources. Tacoma only -
per cent. The assessed valuation
per pupil Is lower here. To get
the same amount Of revenue as
Seattle receives from 10 mills. Ia
coma would require levy Of is.4
mills. To receive what Spokane
does would neoessitate i4.7 mills.
School authorities are asking
the extra millage he granted, Goold
said. because they feel the people
do not fully comprehend the situa-
ton. and when they do will support
the levy to get the type Of schools
they want.
People Safeguarded
The So-mill law. Good asserted.
adequately safeguards the people
when such extra levies are asked,
by providing that so per cent Of
the voters favor the measure. and
that the total vote must equal
that noramlly cast for state offices.
The superintendent stated fur
Their that the school authorities felt
It was timely to request the extra
millage now, with . decided up
surge apparent in economic and
employment conditions. The five
mills. II voted, will apply to the
1e41-42 budget, three going TO the
general budget, including salaries,
and two to retire warrant indebt-
edness.
The vocational education pro-
gram Of Tacoma schools, a new
departure this year, also was
touched upon by Goold in his talk
to the realtors. A vocational di-
rector has been obtained, along
with the joint use OF an elementary
school, and classes already are In
swing.
State Help Asked
Gooid said that . grant Of $780,
900 from the stats department Of
social security has been asked to
help carry on vocational work. OF
this grant. $4,000 would be used
to build . shop and laboratory unit
on the Hawthorne site and $40. 900
for a maintenance shop across
from the Central school.
The present program includes
apprenticeship and trade extension
classes for industrial employees,
trade preparatory courses and ma
tional defense training. Good said.

Book 5. I felt most as proud as
she did. All her friends are saw
ing spools for her and her urgent
need at the moment was, "some-
thing to make for Mother for
Christmas.
Here is my suggestion. An ador-
able set Of three corner shelves
made of lid from a tin candy
box, one from a cracker can and
a coffee can put together with
wire, spools and two beads. These
shelves were painted cherry red
and hung up with brass hook
to hold salt and pepper shakers,
vinegar cruet, and other things
for making salads. Any home
maker will think of a dozen places
where this handy set Of shelves
could be used. All the directions
are here in this sketch.

married daughter lives near and my
granddaughter is a darling. But /

me alone!
Fears It's i'm the Blood.
fThe real trouble is this. My
mothers brother died in an institu-
ton for the feeble-minded, and my
fathers two first cousins were gen.
uine cases of melancholia. So you
see it is in our blood. Do you know
any physician who handles cases
like this; would travel anywhere to
find a cure"
Yes, do know Physician whose
treatments never fail in cases like
this. You don't have to travel any,
where, physically, to find Him; you
may have to make something Of a
spiritual journey. But I'll come to
that later. %
Just now what you have to realize
is that generation ago all fani-
lies had their mental cases, because
women dressed idiotically, never ex-
ercised, knew nothing of hygiene and
ate three times too much. Your Vic
torian relatives used to shut them
selves up in unaired houses, among
fringes and upholsteries and bead
portiers, and drink chocolate and
nibble 'sbon-bons" when they felt
blue. No wonder they went melan-
choly mad! One woman ! knew used
to boast that she was always bilious
and used to cry for an hour every
morning.
Efecting q Cure.
So first see that your insides are
in order. Then walk two miles
day. Then eat very light dinner,
and wind up with two big, raw ap-
Piles, eaten slowly while you read or
listen to the radio after dinner.
Secondly, ignore tomorrow and
forget yesterday. Live each hour
for that hour. The oldest man alive
has no more. The youngest baby
only has that hour. Perfect it and
polish it like jewel. Make your
expression pleasant. Don't answer
the telephone as If speaking from the
tomb. Be bearer Of good tidings.
Realize that you are going through
q change. amuse yourself, take Life
easily. Forget. sights, disappoint-
ments, fears,-forget yourself. In
stead try living, in your mind, your
husbands life for a day. See just
how much fun and peace and pleas
antness the old man is getting.

MELANCHOLIA

Women wIto consistently suffer from
melancholy haze only themselves to
blame, according TO Kathleen Norris.
She explains that continually de-
pressed feeling is not natural. This
state of mind results only rarely from
physical deficiencies; almost altoays t.
is caused by cenfering too much inter.
est in the self. She advises t0onsen sUho
suffer from chronic melancholia to de-
veIop outside activities. because they
offer the only cure.

NNE of the unmistakable
marks Of approaching in
- sanity, or incipient insan-
ity, or mental disturbance of
any serious sort, is what the
scientists call the egocentric at
titude.
Egocentric, of course, means
"centered in self" A woman
whose interest is not conferred in
herself will not lose her mind.
Insanity doesn't seem to be my
usual topic. The questions an
swered in this column are usually
the normal obvious questions Of
girls unhappily in love, girls who
suppose themselves unpopular, girls
who want to shine in Hollywood, or
all the varying phases and angles OF
marriage problems.
But for every letter that ] answer
here ! answer hundred personally,
and destroy unanswered, for one
reason or another, a hundred more.
Either because they were not writ
ten in good faith or because the an
swer has been given a thousand
times, or because they are simply
kind and appreciative and I have to
leave them unacknowledged for
sheer lack Of time and energy.
Don't Center Interest In Self.
And in every hundred letters there
are three from women who are Ell

which opened this article. A won-
an whose interest is not centered in
herself will not lose her mind. That
is, unless some serious physical con-
dition exists. And usually, with the
women who write me, it doesn't.
They are women who are tired,
bored, losing youth, losing. their old
close hold over their child or chill
dren, losing their keen affectionate
interest in the man of the family,
and perhaps approaching that time
Of physical change whose effects
have been so much exaggerated,
whose slight and unimportant dis
comforts have been built up into an
actual tradition. Expecting to be-

sensitive, jealous, lonely, restless,
sleepless, ugly, gray, wrinkled and
disagreeable at this time, many
woman sinks into the role almost
willingly. The experience comes just
at the wrong time, when in a. sort
Of panic she realizes that youth and
bloom and love affairs and beauty
are all dying, and the combination Of
miseries really does bring some
women close to the verge of mental
breakdown.
Everything Seems Ended.
Here is q typical letter:

Helene, from Knoxville. s'When I

club suppers, study the following
eight-point program for feeding the
multitude:
(1) Pick a general. chairman who
can picture the job as whole. (2)
Appoint a responsible person in
charge of each food. (3) Arrange
the kitchen conveniently for the diff
ferent jobs. az Prepare as many
foods ahead Of time as possible. (5)
Have utensils ready and garnishes
at hand. (6) Name hostess to di-
rect mattresses. (7) Plan a uniform
method Of serving. (8) Plan menus
well ahead of time.
If the meat dish is different, the
whole meal seems to have variety.
And there's many trick for serv-
ing thrifty cuts differently.
Take meat loaf, for instance. A
ham loaf de luxe with a good mus
tard-horseradish sauce will make"
any meal. Beef stew can be thick
ened a little, labeled into dripping
pans, covered with rounds or
squares or diamonds of biscuit, and
when baked it appears crustily and
tenptingly yours. If you wish to
make it more ''de luxe" bake and
serve in individual casseroles.
For something different, plan for
meat balls with rice. You can serve
buttered turnips, and salad made
of cabbage, celery, green peas and
pimento which certainly sells the
men this menu.
Now if pennies needn't be watched
SO closely and you want to do a
fall or winter dinner up brown,

Christmas Greetings
Mailed in 1888 Found

Christmas greetings for 1898 from

a compartment came open In flight
Two other pouches were recovered
the same day, one on telephone wires
near the airport.

lives near the vacant lot. stumbled
over it recently.
