Some persons are disturbed by the
fact that evil deeds seem to predom-

necessary that evil be exposed, but
good conduct, which is the rule, does
not particularly call for the limelight

INTEREST CENTERS IN
NELSON AND MARTIN
Greatest Curiosity Is Aroused by the
Question of the Superiority of
Two Washington Sprinters at
100 Yards.

SEATTLE, June 1I.-Many entries
for the first general intercollegiate
track meet ever held in the northwest,
which will be contested at the stadium
of the Alaska Yukon Pacific exposi-
ton, tomorrow have been received by
William NJ Inglis, director of ath
letics at the exposition.
This contest, which will be between
five colleges of the northwest, is the
largest inter collegiate meet ever held
on the coast. Both in the number of
the entries and in the records of the
contestants the meet is unprecedented
in the west.
Washington State college, the Uni
versity of Washington and Whitman
college from this state, the University
of Idaho and Oregon Agricultural col
leges will be pitted in a great athletic
tourney. The University Of Idaho has
entered eight men, including Mont
gomery and Strohecker, two. of thu
most prominent athletes Of the north
west. The University of Washington
has not yet officially entered its men.
The Whitman college entries include
Martin, one Of the fastest sprinters in
the northwest.
For the first time the people OF the
coast " ill have an opportunity to see
Jack Nelson, the great w. S. C. sprin-
ter in action. Nelson is credited with a
record of 3-5 seconds in the hundred
yard dash. Martin, the Whitman
sprinter, is the one man in the north
west who is qualified to run against
Nelson. Although Martin was defeated
by Nelson in the latter's record sprint
it was by q close margin and the
Whitman supporters have hopes OF
SEEING Martin defeat Nelson.

BORAX WILL KEEP
THE ICE BOX CLEAN

Whatever else is neglected in the sum-
mer household, the ice box must not be
sighted. 1t need not be hard to keep
clean, however
Borax is an invaluable aid to the wo-
man who wishes to keep her ice box inn
maculate. It is especially desirable for
use in small refrigerators where little food
is kept. and where ice is kept more for the
purpose of preserving butter and milk and
keeping bottled waters cool. However, it is
excellent for all ice boxes
Cold water with plenty Of pure borax is
preferable to hot water TO use in wipine
off the walls of the refrigerator. It doesn't
heat the box, and being germ killer. il
puriaes everything IL touches. It may also
be put in the corners Of the refrigerator.
Its best use of all is perhaps in keep
ing the receptacle for the ice Itself and
the outlet tube in pure and sanitary con-
dition II may be sprinkled freely over the
bottom of the ice box proper and on the
rack holding the ice.
