Then at this point the photographer caught
the model in the first position of this series,
while the artist made sketch of the remain
ing movements that complete the exercise.
This looks simple enough and to such expert
gymnasts as Miss Elliott it is unquestionably
simple, but the untutored learner finds it diff
cult enough to give her very gloomy idea of
her prospective course in bodily training.

learner is taught to stoop
down and touch the floor
with her finger tips and
then straighten herself
without losing her equi-

Besides these she goes
through a course in stoop-

her body to the floor, and
then raising herself to her
full height upon the tips of
her toes.

makes no difference how well young lady may
have her hands and fingers under control. She
may be an unusually brilliant performer upon
the piano, or she may be a remarkably graceful
dancer and have hef legs and feet under perfect

particularly when she combines any of these
movements. such as moving her right arm in
one direction. her left arm in another aud at
the same time moving one of her legs, she
makes a lamentable failure at first. Systematic

Booming" a town is not always
advisable, for, like imitation, it may
react and have bad effect. But this
is not always the case; especially when
there are natural resources which will
insure permanency. In Southern
California there were no natural re-
sources, except harborage on the sea-
coast and mild climate, and for this
reason when the excitement died out,
San Diego and other cities were duller
than before it commenced. This will
not happen to all towns on the
sound, although some may suffer from
the relapse. Without eMggeration,
Puget Sound is as fine a harbor as
anywhere, and there are timber, coal
and mineral in abundance, with large
number of acres of good agricultural
land. In the next ten years we expect
to see three or four fourishing cities
on the shores of this inland
sea. There is the natural wealth
to support growth, and the people are
of indomitable energy and
The Dalles times-mountaineer. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1882-1904, 1890-06-21

The opposition tried last Monday
to place themselves on Mayor Moody's
plat form-in favor of Columbia river
water, and issued circulars to that
effect. This came too late. Ever
since the question has been mooted
they have opposed every measure tend
ing to segregate The Dalles from the
dominating influence of Portland cap
itallsts. At the time the ballot was
taken on the amended charter, allow
ing the city the privilege to bond itself
for 500, 900 to put in new system
of water works. there were twenty
two votes against it cast by this same
faction. In every single instance they
have opposed any effort made to
give the city new water supply, one
that would insure health to our fami-
lies and protection to our property.
To-day they masked under the false
colors of friends to the pumping sys-
tenn and an immediate and adequate
supply. But the mask was soon torn
aside. AS well merted they were
defeated, and the victory will be one
for the people and city water against
the grssping greed of foreign corpora
tions and capitalists.
