SCHOOL PLANS PROMISE FINE
 BUILDING

DOUGLAS, Sept 17.-(Special)-
 Now that the school trustees have selected the block bounded by c and D avenues, Twelfth and Thirteenth streets as the. site for the new cen tral high school building it is inter- esting to know the character of the building which has been selected by the trustees to grace the selected site. The plans for the building were drawn by the Arizona Architec- tural company of this city and were accepted by the trustees from J. A. Holden representing this company.
 According to the drawings which were seen by an International repre- sentative at the office of the compa- ny yesterday the building will be an ornament to the city besides being eminently suited to the purposes for which it is designed. It has not yet been decided whether 1t will face on Twelfth or Thirteenth street but It will face on one of these streets, having been designed to face either north or south.
 The new high scuool building, as the drawings have been accepted by the trustees is of a modified classic style, two stories and basement and is constructed of cream colored pressed brick with terra cotta trim mings. It is of striking and pleas ing appearance and the proposed light colored brick adds to the gen. eral beauty. It Is to set upon a ter race and has three entrances, a broad main entrance at the front and two side entrances for the schol- ars each leading to the hall which runs from end to end and is twelve feet in width except in front of the auditorium, where it has a width oI sixteen feet.
 Details Are Complete.
 A short flight of steps carries one from the terrace to the yeranda which is 14 feet in width by B in length and from which one passes into broad hallway. To the right of the hall is the principles room and private office and opposite is the scholars reporting room. Straight back from the main entrance is the doorway to the auditorium. just across the transverse hall. This au ditorium is two stories in height and has seating capacity, main floor and gallery of 634. The seats are SC arranged in sections of three that the room can also be used as study or lecture room, broad arms to seats being provided to serve in lieu oi desks. In the rear of the auditorium is a fine stage sixteen feet in deptt by 34 feet in width along side ol

Clara MorrI. ans Husband..

It is folly to call the husbands the head of the house; be is not, says Clara Morris, the famous actress, in Housekeeper. It is but courtesy title at best, since in truth he is but an in- cident in the home life, while the wife and mother is it's whole existence; literally tAe sun of domestic happi- ness rises and sets in the face of the wife and mother.
