THE ATHLETIC CLUB.

Athletic Glasses for Boys and Women.
The Ladies' Night.
The Athletic club has reorganized its
junior and women's gymnasium classes
for this year. The object is to arouse an
interest in amateur athletic sports
among the boys Of the city. The junior
class is divided into two divisions, boys
from s to IA years, which meets on
Wednesdays from to 6 pm, and Sat
urdays from 10 m. to IL M, and those
from IA to 18 years of age, which meets
Mondays and Thursdays from to s
pm. The women's class will meet
some time within two weeks from l 80
to $3.50 O'Clock in the afternoon. The
day of the week has not yet been de-
cided. Prof I. I'll. Bessing, the club in
structor, will direct the classes. Those
who wish to join will have to communi-
cate with the secretary, George Beebe,
at the club rooms, or with Prof. Bess-
ing.
This is move in the right pirection
by the club directors, and the boys
should take advantage of the oppor-
tuuity, for the full privilege of the GYM
nasium is given them. They also can
use the club bath rooms.
The members of the club are prac-
ticing hard for their exhibition on
ladies' night, the 1st of February.
There will be club swinging, boxing,
wrestling, fencing, tumbling and gem
eral class work for that evening, to be
concluded with dancing.

A FAT POCKETBOOK.
AND BECAUSE OF THAT MRS.
WRIGHT LOANED PENN MONEY.
Case of Conspiracy from Santa Mon
fsa-A Restaurant Keeper Who
WAS EnH-ely Too
Confding.

A man giving the name of John Doe
Penn was brought up from Santa Mon
lea last evening and lodged in the
county Jail to await a hearing on the
charge of conspiracy. He was arrested
on warrant sworn ont by Flora E.
Wright. who runs a restaurant on Third
street in that town. John Platt was
also named in the warrant as a conepir-
ator, but it seems that Platt has left
Tor other pastures green.
According to the statement of John
Doe Penn he met Platt and another
stranger, who gave his title as the
Eastern Kid" He introduced them
to the restaurant keeper, and
after a hearty meal the Eastern Kid
handed the woman big, dropsical-
looking pocketbook, telling her that it
contained IL $1,000 bills, and that he
wished her to keep it for him until next
day, as he was afraid that he might be
robbed.
The woman kindly consented to act as
banker. Next morning man called at
the restaurant and got from the woman
seven or eight dollars "for change" on
the strength of the pocketbook. Then
they never came back. The pocketbook
contained advertising representations of
bank notes.

EDUCATIONAL ASSOCIATION.
The Proceedings Yesterday at the jan

The Proceedings Yest day at the jan
uary Me- ing.
The January meeting of the Los
Angeles county educational association
was held in the high school building
yesterday. President LIE Roy D. Brown
presided.
Superintendent of Schools Friesner
delivered an address on language work
in which he thought that too much is
expected of the pupils. A large proper
tion of them are in the first three
grades, and mistake is made in not
teaching them something that can be
practically applied to the conditions
which may confront them when they
leave school.
Mrs. Frish, the high school teacher of
English, thought that too much was re-
quired of the pupils on entering the
high school. They should not be kept
in the school 80 long, but should be
allowed to grow stronger and healthier
by being more in the open air. Refer
ence was made to some of the work re-
quired in the high school.
high school faculty, said that the
teacher should have perfect connection
with the minds of the pupils, and al
though study may seem hard the
teachers should not let the pupils know
it. The trouble with the present meth
ods of teaching is that they simplify
everything and do not give the pupils a
chance to think for themselves. If the
American schools are compared with
the German, French and English it will
be seen that the American children
accomplish less though they are more
active and brighter.
Miss Mary E. Peter of Pomona read a
paper on The Tendency of Our Pro-
fession. Professor Hutton of the Nor
NAL school, and others, took part in the
discussion. s. H. Susskind rendered a

AT THE POsToFFICE.

A Scene Which Disclosed a Good Deal
of Human Nature.
An amusing scene occurred at the
postoffice yesterday. 1t happens every
day and at intervals of 10 minutes dur
ing the days. The usual line was
formed in front of one of the delivery
windows. The usual woman in great
hurry rushed up. She took look at
the men standing in line, and her nerve
seemed momentarily to forsake her,
for she went to another window; but,
as her initial letter did not belong to
that window, she was referred back to
the proper window.
She marched to the head OF the line.
A man was explaining, or trying to, to
the clerk, that letter had been written
to him, and that sit ought to be here by
this time" The woman in a hurry
wedging herself in at the head of the
line, petulantly complained at the man g
delay, saying "a complaint should be
made" in such cases.
"Yes," replied one of the men," and
also against those who violate the rule
requiring people to form in line and
take their regular turn at the letter
window"
The men laughed, but the woman
evidently did not see the business of the
rule when applied to herself.

PLEASURE SEEKERS.
Their Choice Seems to Be the Redol
Hotel.

Their Choice Seems to Be the Redondo
Hotel.
This is proving to be one of the best
seasons for tourist travel that this Sec
tion has ever experienced; and it is very
fortunate, both for the visitor and the
agriculturist and business man at home,
that the early and abundant rains have
prepared our lovely valleys to be seen at
their best. With such attractions as
the country now afford, with the orange
trees bending beneath their loads of
golden fruit, with every hillside covered
with a sheen of living green, the state is
rapidly filling with people from lands
where all is ice and snow, and the con-
trast they will find here cannot be other.
wise than very impressive. But these
visitors will need desirable place to
locate while here, and we desire to call
their attention to the advantages offered
by the great hotel at Redondo Beach.
This house is modern, ia arranged so as
to give the maximum of sunshine and
air in every room, is provided with all
the latest and best apparatus for secur-
ing the comfort and convenience of its
guests, and is managed on the most lib
eral principles, giving its patrons all the
advantages of a strictly frst.class estab-
lishment at a cost far below that usually
exacted at other houses of it's class. By
all means, visit Redondo Beach, the
principal seaport for Los Angeles, be-
fore returning east. Take the Redondo
Beach branch of the Santa Fe, or the
Redondo railway, and you will be land
ed at the Redondo hotel in 45 minutes
from Los Angeles.

Postal Clerks.
The railway postal officials and postal
clerks are out with petition asking the
general public to support the bill now
pending before congress for an increase
in salary in these of1icea. Over $4,000
signatures were secured in Chicago and
in New York over $4,000, and the lead
ing San Francisco papers have at their
offices an additional petition. which the
public is endorsing. A similar petition
will be presented to the people of this
city at an early date. Every signature
counts, and every citizen should come
forward and sign it. The postal clerks
are poorly paid lot of servants. Com
pared with other government employees.
their salaries amount to little or moth

tally, should come forward in support OF
this righteous cause. Railway postal
clerks, letter carriers and postofice

So the finely written story about Span
ish ladies casting their jewels into the
melting pots is not true as to the bells
made by Mr.. Holbrook, and probably
not as to the other three. The same
tradition hangs around nearly every
Spanish mission bell in the Americas.
Neither are the bells ancient, as one
was made in the year 1928 and another
in 1880. The other two bells do not
look to be any older than the two bear
ing dates.
Pure history is pure truth, and the
closer writer comes to the facts the
