The SIMMER Rnth.

Nothing is more refreshing or invigor-
ating in summer than daily bath. Use
soft, tepid water and good soap. Ivory
soap is ideal for the bath; it is pure,
fathers quickly and leaves the skin soft
and white. The bath should be taken
early in the morning, or just before retir-
ing at night. ELEANOR r. PARKER.

COLLEGE OFFICERS STRIKE
Military Commission of Kentucky
state Institution wish Cadet
Expelled.

LEXINGTON, KY, Ian 2O.-There was no
chapel servios and no drill at the Kentucky
State college today, owing to the virtual
strike of all commissioned officers at the
institution.
Some days ago they petitioned the faculty
for the discharge of a cadet whom they
charged with INSTRUMENTATION and unbe-
coming conduct. President Patten declined
to consider the petition or present it to
the faculty, claiming that the student had
already been punished.
The officers met last night and decided
not to have anything TO do with the mill
tsry feature Of the college until, what they
regarded as their rights, had been recog-
niZed.
The commissioned officers compose the
military commission and the trustees
granted it the right to petition the faculty
for the expulsion of cadets. They declare
that If their contention is not satisfied
they will resign in a body.

composed of people Of mature years en-
gagged in fruit raising. Their desire that
the island remain American is not purely
sentimental, since they claim as a Cuban

20 per cent tariff preference while as a ter
ritory of the United States the islanders
hope for free trade with America.
The government, while acknowledging
that the matter Of the ownership OF the
islands is open. holds that 1t has defacto
control for the time being, at least, and
therefore is authorized TO lay taxes and
perform other functions. II is said the
United States Will approve Of this propo-
sition as against the protest OF the Amerl-
