Encampnent

The cadets dream, the long
talked of trip to Seattle and the
Alaska-Yu exposition seems
in fair way to be realized. The
travelling passenger agent of the
Northern Pacific is now in st.
Paul where he is taking up the
question of the reduced rate on
which the trip hinges. Captain
Mitchell hopes that the railroad
will be able to make the neces-
sary reduction for that alone is
needed to assure the trip.
Captain Mitchell was in Seat
tie during the Christmas holi-
days, looking over the prospec-
tive camp sites and seems to
favor the site to the east of the
exposition grounds and on the
right of way of the UnitedStates
canal between lakes Washington
and Union. Captain Mitchell
states, though, that if these
grounds should later prove I'M
satisfactory, the fair officials
have agreed to make provision
for the camp in the exposition
enclosure.
Last spring when the trip was
first being planned it was sug-
gested that the cadets go by rail
to the Dalles of the Columbia,
and then by boat to Portland.
From that city it was hoped that
the cadets could be taken by a
coast steamer down the Column
bia, up the coast of Washington
into the straits and Puget Sound,
to the city of Seattle and Alaska
Yukon exposition. From present
indications this latter part will
be impracticable and from Port
land the cadets will go by rail,
up through the city of Olympia,
thence to Seattle.

College Girls Entertained

The girls of the Washington
State College were entertained
on the afternoon of the twenty
third by the ladies of the faculty.
Several homes were thrown
open, and very pleasant amuse-
ments provided for the various
departments of the college. Mrs.
W. G. Beach, assisted by Mrs.
Van Dyke, Mrs. Mitchell and
Mrs. Walter. entertained a
part of the girls of the prepara-
tory department. A prize was
offered to the girl who should
make the most artistic Frecnh
lady out of a soap-bubble pipe
and some sheets of colored tissue
paper. The contest was carried
on with much vigor and some
remarkable results produced.
After this, various interesting
games were played, and refresh
ments served.
Mrs. Thomson, assisted by
Mrs. Strong, Mrs. Gittleson and
Miss Hunt entertained the re-
mainder of the preparatory de-
partment. Here, too, the ever
engrossing topic of dress was
provided for. and a prize given
for the best French hat construc-
ted out of tissue paper and pins.
The Millinery resulting caused
considerable amusement. Re-
freshments were served in pretty
baskets of various colors, and the
guests enjoyed a winter picnic
indoors.
At the Naples where Mrs.
Shedd, assisted by Mrs. Ralston,
Mrs. Thiel and Miss Huse enter
tanned the Freshmen girls at a
children's party, one would have
thought the infant department
of the public school had gath
cred. But it was really the dig
nifed collegiates attired in school
girl costumes and carrying ted
dy-bears and dolls. Childrens
games were played and long-for-
gotten pieces called to mind and
recited. Cookies, animal crackers
and stick candy were served with
the ice-eream.
Mrs. Fulmer, assisted by Mrs.
Humphrey and Mrs. Nelson, en-
tertained the Sophomores. A
very interesting guessing con-
test occurred, The heads of
prominent men and women had
been cut from magazines and
newspapers and placed about the
room, and prize was given to
the girl correctly naming the
largest number. Refreshments
were served and all reported a
pleasant social afternoon.
Mrs. Waller was the hostess at
an informal at home given to the
Juniors and Seniors. The guests
were received by Mrs. Waller and
Mrs. Andrews in the pretty and
artistic Waller home, and all were
soon enjoying themselves with
characteristic college enthusi-
asm. Dainty refreshments were
served in the dining room where
Miss Florence Waller and Miss
Vern Gaddis presided.
Several future entertainments
have been planned by the ladies
of the faculty for the girls of the
college.

Gov. Mead Proclaims Lincoln
Day.

Jointly with the department of edu-
cation, Governor A. E. Mead issued a
proclamation before retiring from
public office, urging the general OBJ
servation of the Lincoln centenary on
February IL. The proclamation fol-
lows:
Whereas. The senate and the
house of representatives of the state
of Washington have concurred in a
resolution requesting the governor to
issue proclamation urging the citi-
zens of the state of Washing ton to
observe in fitting manner the centen-
NAL of the birth of Abraham LIN
coin: and
Whereas, All Americans revere
and cherish the memory of that just
and noble man whose great heart felt
the sorrows of the whole people
throughout the most trying years of
the nations history, whose undaunted
spirit shrank from no responsibility,
however grave, and whose lofty mind
directed the ship of state safely
through the reefs and shoals of til
tanic war; and
Whereas, The name of Lincoln
must ever inspire such love for the
goodness and admiration for the
grandeur which were the balancing
elements of his character that the OBJ
servance of this natal dav becomes a
patriotic devotion;
Now. therefore. I. Albert E.
Mead, governor of the state of
Washington. by virtue of the author
ty in me vested, do hereby proclai I'M
that Friday, February IL. 1909, the
centennial of the birth of Abraham
Lincoln. ought to be appropriate ly
observed throughout the state; and
suggest that the people gather in
their usual places of assemblage and
do honor to the memory of him whose
life was gentle, and the elements so
mixed in him that nature might stand
up and say to all the world. This
is man.
Henry R. Dewey, superintendent
of public instruction, makes the fol-
lowing announcement:
February IL. 1909, is the hundreth
anniversary of the birth of Abraham
Lincoln. 1t is exceedingly fitting that
every school should observe this day
by appropriate exercises. Evrey
pupil should be encouraged to study the
life, character and public services of
Lincoln. Such study will be an in
spiration of every boy and girl in our
state. We cannot teach the patri-
otism in any better way than by
studying the career of such a man as
Lincoln.
"Let the program be so arranged
that it will enlist the interest and CO.
operation of parents, who should be
urged to attend the exercises. 1t is
impracticable and unnecessary for the
state department to prepare or outline
the program. There is wealth OF
material available. The school jOurn-
ais, the magazines and the newspapers
are alike teeming with articles, poems,
antidotes, pictures, that will be serv-
feeble. In the pamphlet issued by
this department entitled Patriotic
Memorial Days., there are several
pages devoted exclusively to Lincoln. -

BREED THEATER.
"cowhoy's Argument" Thrilling Mo
 tion Picture.

A thrilling and sensational motion picture shown at the Breed theater last evening was the one called Cowboy s Argument, and proved to be most interesting one. It has quite a nun : Der of novelties fin the line of episodes, to carry out the plot, and met with ir.stant success. The monster scenic picture, A Trip Through Yellowstone Park, is one of rare beauty, and shows all of the splendors of this great res ervation, including all of the famous geysers, the canyons the tinted pail sades and the wild animals. This is e very long reel, and holds the audi ence spellbound by it's majestic gran deur during it's exhibition. The his torical picture of Oliver Cromwell is handsomely colored and all the famous incidents of his life are clearly rep resented, the picturesque garments adding much to the already beautiful background. An unusually long bill of comedy is shown. and includes Any Fort in q Storm, Talked to Death, The Interrupted Joy Ride, and A Fight for Love. MT. Delaney is singing the fla nous California song, entitled In the Garden of the West, which is accom- panied by exquisite scenic slides. Ma dame Morelle is continuing her suc- cess by rendering the catchy waltz song, Senora, which she is compelled to repeat to the satisfaction of the au- Gience.
