THE TACOMA
MAYORALTY FIGHT

Tacoma, Feb. 1.-THE coming
spring campaign will be one of the
warmest in the history of Tacoma
politics. Today, which was the last
for the filing of declarations of can
didacy. Charles Drury, a democrat,
and ]. w. A. Nicols, a republican,
filed their intentions of candidacy
for the mayoralty nomination, on the
democratic and republican tickets re-
spectively.
Nicols is a prominent attorney
who has lived in Tacoma for years,
and Drury is tailor, who has taken
an active interest in public affairs
This makes five republicans in the
mayoralty race and two democrats,
the republicans being Judge John w
Linck, August Cultum. Z. l. Salmson.
Charles D. Atkins and j. W. A. Nj
coils. Mayor Wright and Mr.. Drury
are the democrats
The presence of Drury in the may
orally race is hailed with delight by
many disgruntled democrats, who
want another leader other than
Wright. fractional fights in borh
parties are causing the party leaders
uneasiness. In the different wards of
the city there are contests between
rival candidates for the council.

straight on the left side, and there
are even one or two that are caught
back in the middle of the front with
a quill sewn at right angles to the
face Altogether there is no indica
ton of any set fashion, for it is too
early to tell definitely what summer
will bring forth. For the between
season it is perfectly safe to invest
in a large fiat sailor, short in back
and front. This may either roll
slightly at the edge of the rim on
the left side or else may be perfectly
straight, trimmed with flowers or
quilts.
Leghorn hats, too, are very popu
lar, but they are left straight in the
back and turned up in the middle of
the front.
A very small Panama is shown
with the brim rolled back at the side
and held in place by chou of vel

Many of The hats shown for very
early spring are made of hOrsehair
and trimmed with straight short os-
trich plumes. Another material used
to a great extent is net and malme
bound all round with taffeta, while
aigrejtes and wings usually form
the trimming.

Milk Baths.

Milk as a skin beautifier is as old
as the hills, and a great deal has
been written about milk baths. Like
most beautifers 1t must be used reg
ularly, persistently, and with a care
full regard as to the d ct to effect
sure results. 1t is true that the re-
suits are slow, but they are sure
also, and when once they are notice
able a great change will also grad
ually be perceptible.
The face and neck should first be
cleaned with pieces OF absorbent cot
ton soaked in equal parts of olive
oil and brandy or olive oil and eau
de cologne Firm and gentle press
ure should be used in this process, so
as to stimulate the surface cells. Dry
carefully and dab the entire face,
spatting it gently with milk. Skim
milk is not so good as full milk, but
it will serve the purpose.

Many are the pathetic stories that

does this tell? Perhaps of the death
of a parent, serious illness of near rel

Wanted-Place to work for my

tells of the ambitious student who does
not allow a lack of funds to interfere
with his education, and who only wants
chance-just a job.
The funny side of the bulletin board
supplement is open to all. Here it is
that both the wit and the near-wit
have equal space to demonstrate their
abilities. The energetic Freshman will
put up his class sign announcing his
class meeting, and soon along comes
the rude Sophomore, who adds to the
sign: "All Sophomores invited" The

~ NE OF the papers read before the
II tuberculosis Congress at Wash
ingtOn dealt with the subject
of the unsanitary railway car Since
the improvements suggested by the
writer of the paper deserve the consid-
Grafton of the inventor, we present the
following abstract of his remarks:
The points that need attention in a
Pullman car are the bedding, the ven
tilation of the berth when made up, the
use of the wash basin for teeth cleaning,
the use of common drinking glasses,
etc. theoretically, the danger from
the blankets has been diminished by the
use of third sheet as a counterpane.
but practically this third sheet is of
little if any protective value. The
sleeping berth is generally made up with
two blankets for covers.
This is too much for the ordinary
sleeper at all times, and the result is
that one or both blankets are thrown
back. To throw off one or both blan-
kets necessitates the throwing back of
the third or upper sheet. Thereupon it
ceases to afford any protection for the
blankets. A long upper sheet to turn
back over the blankets at the top is
far better than the third sheet.
This is matter more for the porter
than the inventor to consider The lack
Of ventilation in the lower berth when
made up is simply beyond description.
This can and should be corrected, and
here the inventor can do much.
1t will undoubtedly mean a change in
'ar construction, but this can and should
be met from this time on in all new
'ars. Arrangements should be made SO
hat it might be possible to clean ones |
eeth without splitting into the basins
provided for lavatory purposes. Here
gain the inventor can help.

Now it is the canned play. A noted
theatrical manager in New York is
having moving pictures taken of all
productions, and the speeches of the
actors received by phonograph so that
in future years when he wishes to re-
vive once popular play, the original
production can be exactly duplicated by
the mere Use of the films and the pho
nograph records. What a pity that
these machines were not in use in the
times of Shakespeare, so that we might
have a performance of Hamlet with

Life in Boarding House.

are jerked out between mOuthfuls while
steady clink of dishes goes around.
After the evening meal the grinds
stink sullenly to their barren rooms con-

The family Bible rests in state on the
center table which is fanked on both
sides by stiff backed chairs looking just
as if they are ready to jump at you.
Study hour too soon comes round and
finds most students pouring over-no,
not books-but the chatting dish, cooking
some unwholesome mixture to be eaten
at an an ungodly hour of the night. The
girls are sitting around in groups dis
cussing 'Mr. Browns frat pin," or
Mary Jones' latest "catch," or whether
or not "spiteful Miss Blank will get to
60 to the next big dance;" and when the
is ended they are right back
where they started. Twelve O'Clock,

over grind and gossip alike.

Fairgrounds are cheaper than reform
schools. BY increasing the number of
play schools the reform schools can be
finally eliminated and only the child
who can be classified as dependent
need be cared for by the state. The
juvenile court will become merely a dis
tributing center for the children whose
environments are unfavorable. The bad
boy will become an extinct type. As
the bad boy vanishes the anti-social
citizen will become rarer. Such surely
is the aim of the playground.

ITS GREATEST VALUE.

1t has been said of John ID. Rookie
cause unless convinced that the benefits
resulting from his generosity will be
greater than the value of his gift. The
State of Missouri may be said to re-
semble Mr.. Rockefeller in this partic-
ular, especially with reference to its re-
lations with the State University.
Never has it been guilty of wasting
any money upon the University nor ev-
en- of acting hastily in its contributions
to the school. 1t may, therefore, be
safely said that the State knows or
firmly believes that its expediture for a
new agricultural building, the corner
stone of which was laid this morning,
are worth while. And the history of
agricultural schools all over the coun-
try would lead us so to believe.
The Saturday Evening Post of last
week has an article on College Bred
Farmers" in which it shows some of
the values of an agricultural education
of how a scientific knowledge of plant
and animal life, of soil fecundity and
improvement and of farm machinery can
add dollars and cents to farmers
pocket.
One of the greatest values of an ag-
ricultural education, however, is less Of
ton n &c Z, r{o,,
value that the school gives. Those who
appreciate the farm as one of the nee
essary and fundamental institutions of |
our society are lamenting the great |
growth of city populations and the COM
parative decrease in the number of |
those on the farm. They attribute the |
cause to many reasons-the inviting
ness of the city with its companionship,
gayety and excitement; the hardness of
farm life with its lonliness, difficulty,
sameness.
One vital cause they too often fail to
consider. Because the agricultural
school eliminates this cause is it of so
great a value. The knowledge neces-
sary to successful farming can be OBJ
tained outside of the school, though, of
course, not without greater labor and ex-
pense. But that which only the agri
cultural school gives is a certain moral
backing to farm life, the lack of which c
has been largely the cause of so many c
leaving the farm. The professional $
school has ever dignified its profession. t
The engineering school has raised the G
'ngineer to an equal footing in the gen p
raj mind with the lawyer, the doctor i
md the preacher. Men who would t
lever have thought of becoming engi- In
leers through practical experience have

lew schools of journalism are doing CO
he same thing for the newspaper pro- v
ession. And so the agricultural school el
