important Body Composed of
Garfield Students to Be
Chosen Wednesday.
1T is OF GREAT VALUE.
By SERVING ON THIS GOVERN
ING BODY OF SCHOOL AFFAIRS,
YOUNGSTERS ARE TAUGHT Or
GANIZATION AND EXECUTION.

On last Wednesday morning the
classes of the school held primary ell
ections for places on the school coun-
Gil. Each class nominated as candi-
dates twice as many pupils as 1t Is
entitled to have on the council. The
final election will be held next We'd
nesday morning. After this election,
the organization of the council will
take place by the appointment or
standing committees and the election
OF treasurer, a recording secretary
and a financial secretary. All this
and the work done by the council is
intended as a training for citizenship.
Because of the many things in the af-
fairs of the school considered by the
council, these elections command an
interest from the pupils that could
not be aroused by any formal study
OF civics. Those who are fortunate
TO be elected as members get valuable
training in the work of organization
and execution. Those nominated at
the primaries are as follows:
"a Class.
Taylor Ferret, Harold Scott. Wal

Woodruff Speaks.
At the opening of the afternoon ses.
sion yesterday, the school met in the
assembly room for the first time this
term. The celebration of Washing
tons birthday was the occasion. The
time was spent in singing patriotic
songs and in listening to addresses
given by Mr.. Clinton Rogers Wood
ruff, secretary OF the American Civic
Federation and Hon. William Dudley
Foulke. Both of these scholarly gen.
tlemen confined their remarks along
lines appropriate to the occasion,
bringing valuable lessons of patrio,
tism to their hearers and pointing out
many admirable traits worthy of emu
lation in the life of the Father OF
Our Country"

FALLING OF THE LEAVES,

The Wind In the Autumn Really Has
Very Little to Do with 1t.
When the storm clouds gather behind
the brown autumnal woods and cold
winds begin to blow, then the bright
leaves come drifting down in huttering,
fast thickening showers until it almost
seems as if the wind were the active
agent and actually tore the leaves from
the trees. This, of course, is not the
case. The leaf fall only becomes posi-
bic after long Preparation on the part
of the tree which forms a peculiar
layer of cells in each leaf stem called
the cleavage plate.
This cleavage plate, or separation
layer, consists of a section oS loosely
attached thin walled cells with a few
among them, so. in the early autumn,
although the leaves appear as firmly
attached as ever before, they are really
only held on the tree by these few
woody strands and the outer brittle
skin or epidermis of the stem. Now
only a slight shock or wind furry is
sufficient to break the fragile support
and bring the leaves in showers to the
ground. We may see these woody
strands broken through in the leaf scar
of the horse chestnut, where they ap-
pear as little rounded projections on
the broken surface and are often spok-
Ell of from their fancied resemblance
to the nails OF horseshoe. The hick-
DRY and ash among other trees have
similar markings on their leaf scars
and from the same cause. On the root
of the wild sarsaparilla, which projects
just above the ground, like series of
little projections will be seen upon the
ringlike scar which surrounds the bud
where the leaf stalk has just separated
Often the leaves separate and fall
even on the quietest days, for their
own weight is sufficient to break the
frail support. These hushed and su-
premely tranquil days we all remen-
Der. when our October walks are &C
compapied by the soft. small sounds of
falling leaves, by the rustlings and dry
whisperings of their showering multi
tudes.-St. Nicholas.

BECOMING HOMOGENEOUS.
Woodruff Tells Teachers That This is
True.

The New Civic Era" was the sub
iect of Clinton Rogers Woodruff's ad-
dress before the teachers of the city
at high school hall Friday afternoon.
The speaker was introduced by Will
liam Dudley Foulke who in a few re-
marks pointed out the difference be-
tween the dreamer and the practical
reformer, and declared that the latter
is the most important citizen in Amer
lea today. In past years he was as
ISOLATED with Mr.. Woodruff in the
civil service and in much of his re-
form work and spoke of him as his
odd Comrade in arms"
Mr.. Woodruff at once plunged into
an arraignment of the old regime in
city affairs, declaring that it was dom
mated by d fierce individualism which
placed the man before the city. But

PRETTY CO-EDS WILL TRY TO BREAK
QUAKER Boys DEBATING RECORD

Although the debate between the
girls of Earlham College and of Oberlin
college, Ohio, is still two months
away, practically all the arrangements
for it have been made. Much interest
is being taken in the event, as there is
a curiosity as to how the girls will
come out in contest of this kind, as
compared with the high rank that has
been won by Earlham boys. The
names of the Earlham debaters, which

MANY FOLLOW WITH LAND SUITS
Settlers Along Oregon G. California
Road Seek Lands Under Grant.

Tacoma, Wash.-The suit brought in
the federal court by Roy W. Minckler
to compel the Oregon & California
railroad to sell to him 80 acres in the
original grant in Clarke county for
$3.50 an acre is to be followed by sim
liar suits against the Northern Pacific
and other railroads in this state.
According to attorneys who are
handling the cases approximately
100000 acres of the railroad grant
lie in Washington, which, under the
terms of the grant, must be put on the
market at $3.50 an acre. Failure to
comply with these terms, it is said,
will invalidate the entire grant.
1t is expected that the actions
against the Northern Pacific will be
commenced with test case from Lew.

against the Oregon & California. The
complainants are settlers who have
established homes within the railroad
grants.
