~PRUDEs AND BIGorsv

in which he again scores the coeds.
Heron had anticipated some such oc-
currence as the boycott and had pre-
pared the editorial for the occasion. It
reads as follows:
The editor OF the Sequoia has been very BIT
terly denounced as man who has no respect
for women and whose manner Of life IL so wieked
that he should serve as a standing example OF
the terrible effects OF walking the primrose path
to the everlasting bonfire At recent meeting
OF Cap and Gown one OF the leading members OF
the organization declared that the cause OF
the seemingly hopeless degradation OF the editor
of the Sequoia lay In the fact that he never as
sociated with any women students OF the insti-
tution-in other words that he refrained from
queening-and was therefore impervious to their
softening and refining Influences. Thus We have
become. IN the estimation OF some Of the women.

REsENTS BOYCOTT

Relative to the boycott recently In
augurated on the Sequoia by some OF
the women Of the university. desire
to make the following observations.
~F'irst-The poem 'Bathsheba.' which
I understand to be the occasion for
the SO called boycott. was condemned
by the women before they had read II.
and while they were almost ignorant
Of its tone and contents I would sub
nit to any reasonable person that 1t Ia
unjust to condemn any work before
reading it.
"Second-The tone and contents OF
the poem are not improper. The story
follows exactly the biblical narrative
Of David and Bathsheba- Indeed. the
original account was softened in nv
version of the story. The subject has
always been recognized as legitimate
for treatment in art and literature.
There are many English courses IN the
university in which women are re-
quired to read plays and poems far
more open to objection on moral
grounds than 'Bathsheba'
Third maintain that my version
OF the story of Bathsheba was a de-
tense rather than an attack upon mo-
rality. The crime Of David I endeav-
ored TO portray in a repulsivs rather
than an attractive light immortality
is condemned. not sanctioned.

Frank Scheble and Jap Cruson
were boyhood friends. quarter of
a century ago, back in Centralia,
Wisconsin.
Years ago Mr.. Scheble took Horace
Greeley's advice and skinned out for
the west, telling Jap Cruson and
other friends goodbye. This was the
last he saw of Jap until yesterday.
when the latter walked uncermOn-
iously into the Scheble home on We
natchee avenue-but the mayor knew
him at sight.
Cruson, lured by the growing west,
came to Washington himself years
ago, and settled at Sheldon. From at
tending the l. O. o. F. convention at
Spokane he stopped off in Wenatchee
and looked up his old friend.

SERVES AS MODEL.
Boston Seeks to Reform Its System
on District Government Lines.

The city Of Boston is on the verge Of
revolutionizing its present form of gov
eminent, 1t Is said. and is contemplating
the introduction of commission form of
government and using the District of Co
lumbia as its model. Commissioner West
returned to his desk today. having been
in Boston to attend a banquet at the
Beacon Society of Washington on Satur-
day. He said a number of the most
prominent and influential citizens of Bos-
ton We're present and they spoke of the
urgent need of "a change in the form of
government for their city, and all seemed
to favor the government Of Washington.
Mr.. West said he was able to give a
brief outline of the local government and
answer many questions regarding the de-
tails in connection with it, and he said
today that he Is convinced from the inter-
est and determination shown at that ban
quet. that commission form of govern
ment similar to the government of the
District of Columbia, Will De adopted.
Something must be done for Boston"
Mr.. West said. That city has debt of
Sll2,S2J,792, and the valuation OF per cap
ta is the largest in the United States and
the big men of the city contend that the
most effective means of reducing IL NAV
be a plan for complete reform. They seem
to blame the prominence of politics in the
governing of the city.
Almost One-third of the Cjty'S total an
nUal income is beSpoken in advance to
pay interest charges amounting to 81 800
GO on her debt and to provide for her
sinking fund requirements. This does not
leave sufficient funds to pay as she goes
and IL means that she is sinking deeper
and deeper into debt, with no visible
means of extricating herself 1t Is al
legged that too many political workers are
carried on the pay rolls of the city and
who in return do not work and are dead
loss
