great worth of Marcus Whitman and
he instituted in this valley so many
years ago, would be to have the 200
at that time. What Walla Walla needs
is more festive occasions when the
people of the city can get together.
This offers a splendid opportunity, and
l think that it would be only proper
that the public schools close on the
afternoon of the dedication, that they
may be present. and lend the spirit Of
their presence to the occasion. Think
of the impressiveness of such an oc-
casion. Twenty seven hundred school
children, each carrying a small flag,
would add wonders to the historical
setting which will surround the dedi-
cation of the Whitman monument on
the campus of Whitman college.
The spirit of publicity movement
is the same as that highest duty of
citizenship. namely the doing of some
thing for Others, You may call it
community duty if you wish, but never
theless it is universally recognized as
one of the highest types of education,

NEW YORK, Sept. This is the
last portrait DR.. Frederick A Cook,
the now famous explorer. had taken
before he started on the memorable
trip which resulted in the discovery
of the north pole. DR.. Cooks first ven-
ture in exploration was when he went
with the Peary arctic expedition as
surgeon in 1912. For several years
thereafter he engaged in interior ex-
p'Oring and mountain climbing. He
made his first attempt to climb to the
summit of Mount Mckinley in Alaska
in 1898. Four years later he started
for the antarctic seas as surgeon
with the Belgian expedition under
Captain Adrian de Gerfache. This
trip ended unsuccessfllly mise g.

Several Sioux Indians, in war
bonnets and paint, we're in a del
egation which called upon Presis
dent Taft the other day, urging
him TO be present at the unveil-
ing of a statue of General Custer,
at Monroe, Michigan. Thus the
times change. The killing Of
General Custer and his whole
command by the Sioux in Mon
tana in 1876 is one Of the most
tragic chapters in the story of
the great Northwest. The full
details of that massacre have
never been told, but tits known
that the intrepid cavalry leader
and his troopers met their deaths
in a way that upheld the best
traditions of the American
soldier. Youths Companion.

The fourth of july was celebra-
ted with much spirit in and about
this city, but it was shameful
day in one respect at least. The
noise was outrageous. Chinese
bombs bursting for two days and
two nights are a little to much.
The incessant noise was especially
outrageous around the hospitals
of the city, and must have been
torture to the sick and nervous
within the hospital walls. Then
there is always more or less sick
ness in private homes; there are
men who work all night and need
sleep in the day time, there are
men who work all day and need
sleep at night, and to have a whole
city distressed that some boys and
hoodlums may think they are hav-
ing a good time, is not fair. We
hope that before another Fourth
Of July steps will be taken to insure
its rational celebration. -Goodwin's
Weekly.

Where Paris Failed

This clever Paris milliner was
one day studying a picture of
the hat worn by the Russian
Cossacks when the though occur
red to him to adapt it to women.
And the inverted waste paper
basket" hat was the result. The
word of this milIiner was we'll
nigh law, and a large manufac-
ture of the hat was the result.
The Partisan fashion magazines
this one among the others
followed suit. And in the early
spring the Paris windows along
the Rue de la Paix blossomed
forth. But the milliner had for
once gone to farl The smart
French women looked these hats
over and refused to adopt them.
The milliner cajoled and persuad-
ed, but the French women stood
firm. We will not make our
selves look like rights" they
said, and they ordered fiat hats
of the 1908 pattern. The ac-
tresses we're appealed to, but
they also refused, and not a
"waste-basket" hat was seen on
the French stage. The next
blow came when the first of the
smart American women came
to Paris. Every art know to
the French was resorted to, but
the American women sided with
the French women and refused
to buy the hats. The smart
women from Saint Petersburg
and South America, upon whom
Paris milliners and dressmakers
count most, came, and they
struck the final'blow to the ugly
hat by a refusal to buy. Mean
time, to make matters worse,
the Partisan women of ques-
tionable repute adopted the hat,
and this meant it's death-knell.
Dump Thorn on America
The rhilliners found themselves
with hundreds OF the hats on
their hands and the manufacture
ers were loaded up with thou
sands. A meeting was held and
it was decided that there was but
one thing to do to save a loss
that would mount up into the
millions of francs: to send all the
hats over to America on consign-
ment, land make, ITO use the ex-
preston of one of the leading
Partisan milliners, "the silly
American women (note the fiat
tering definition 'silly') believe
that it was the latest Partisan
fantasy. Let US dump them on

THE BASKET HAT.

American women were GER
tainly fooled this spring by a
clever milliner in Paris in their
adoption of what is known as
the "peachbasket" hat. And to-
day all Paris is laughing in it's
sleeve atthe American women
who were tricked.
