The beauty that won the love OF
| England's greatest naval hero and
made the British nation gasp has
its perfect prototype in twentieth
century Gerda Nelson, who has flung
defiance in the teeth of Old World
conyentionalism, ridden rough-shod
through her family escutcheon and
claimed the freedom of this country
for the exploiting of her unquestion-
ed genius.
A study of the accompanying pho
tographs will be of interest to stu
dents of theosophy Three genera
lions have passed between, and Miss
Nelson of present-day fame has sue
ceeded in preserving the remarkable
likeness of her illustrious great
grandmother, Lady Hamilton, to a
degree that is almost uncanny.
1t was a shock to all her English
relatives when Gerda Nelson first de
cided to go upon the stage. She
made her debut with Ada Rehan,
who was at that time making her
farewell tour of the British pro-
vinces. With rigid dignity her
starched and titled relatives shook
their illustrious heads, declared his
tory was repeating itself and that the
bohemian blood of the dashing Lady
Hamilton was living again in the
veins of her beautiful great-grand-
daughter, Gerda.
These cautions and indignant con
nections cited deeds of wild abandon
and flights of romatic and inspired
imagination, as warning against
their Gerda's professional career.
They even told her of the supposed
unreal emotional exhibitions indulg-
ed in her illustrious great-grand-
parents and delighted in reading to
her from such irrefutable authority
as Leslie stephens Dictionary of Ma
tional Biography the following ex-
tract:
when Braham sang The Death of
Nelson, Lady Hamilton showed I'M
usual emotion, and as it was the i'm
preston that she had gone to the
theater for this purpose, it threw
great discredit upon the genuincss
of her woe"
To such attacks as these Miss Ger

MANAGEMENT CHANGES.

Next week The Herald and Pacific
Farmers Union will be under new
management. At meeting of the
directors of the Pacific Farmers
Union Company, which owns hte
printing plant, held i'm Pullman this
week, the plant was leased to Will
liam Goodyear, of Colfax, editor of
the Colfax Commoner. The lease
provides that Mr.. Goodyear is to
have the plant for a term of five
years, provided the action of the di-
rectOrs is ratified by the stockhold-
ers of the printing plant at the tri-
state convention to be held i'm Occur
d'Alene i'm June. Mr.. Goodyear takes
charge of the plant next week and
he will be assisted in the editorial
work by MILFORD Allen, formerly
publisher of The Herald.
Both of these men are so well and
favOrably known to the readers of
The Herald that they will need no
introduction. Mr.. Allen was pub
Usher of The Herald for a period of
ri years. 1t is understood that his
connection with the paper will be
only temporary, as he IS not a party
to the lease. A fuller announce
ment will be given to the public by
the new management in next weeks
issue.
That Mr.. Goodyear will make a
success of the Pacific Farmers
Union is certain. He is an able
writer, thorough newspaper man
and is heartily in sympathy with the
work of the Farmers Union, of
which he is a member.
Mr.. Goodyear plans to bring his
family to Pullman, and they will be
valuable addition to Pullman So

April Fool Jokes.

1t has been a habit of newspapers
as well as common mortals, to spring
jokes on their readers on April I .
The Spokesman-Reyiew had big
story in its issue of last Friday, tell
ing, how special meeting of the
city council had been called after
midnight to meet Mr.. Strathorn, of
the North coast road, and the latter
had agreed to accept a franchise with
the terminal rates clause. In congra-
tulating the council and the city
Mayor Pratt declared the date would
be memorable in history and pointed
to the calender which showed
April l."
The joke was a good one and many
who read it did not see through it,
until reminded that the date was
April FOOLS day" But the best
joke perpetrated on it's readers was
that of the Pullman Tribune, which
displayed a statement on its front
page, surrounded by a border, and
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1910-04-08

printed in large type the following
joke: THE Pullman Tribune is the
only newspaper in Whitman county
that has a sworn subscription list. II
has 900 more bonafide subscribers
than anyother newspaper of gerenal
circulation published in Pullman. "
Those who read the Joke were puz-
zled, and number made inquiry to
learn what Sworn subscription
list is, until their attention was
called to the date, in the upper left
hand corner of the paper, which
showed, April /, 1910.

TOO MUCH ADVICE.

Someone has said THE World Is
being Preached to Damnation. -
While we do not agree with this
statement, there is no doubt that
there is too much preaching and too
little example in many cases. That
continuous preaching to children
loses its effect is we'll known. Sam
Walter Foss the we'll known poet,
has sized up the situation" well in
the following lines:

He sermonized industriously in his

And taught by tale and proverb and

The virtuousness of virtue and the
viciousness of vice.

Were ever hurled at Ephraim
throughout the whole year long,
That he might rightly comprehend

but pay the price,
If we but saturate his soul with
showers of advice,
If we instill," said Abraham, "perpe-

And SO in truth perpetually he soak

The youth absorbs a sermon every

On the awful reprobation of the aw-

And he swallowed moral these that

And he masicated maxims with his
