EDUCATORS FAVOR
TWO UNIVERSITIES
Plan for State Institution in the
Southland Discussed at
SchooImasters' Club
FACILITIES NOW INADEQUATE
Superintendents Keppel and
Francis Present Needs of
This Part of California
FACILITIES NOW INADEQUATE

Educational matters of Importance
to the southern part of California were
presented to visiting Legislators at
dinner given by the Schoolmasters' club
in the Billiken clubs rooms last night
Chief among these was the rounding
of q state university for southern
California.
The addresses of the evening were
by ]. II. Francis, superintendent OF
city schools, and Mark Keppel, county
superintendent. The needs of this sec
tion of the state in an educational way
were outlined by both speakers. Stress
was laid on the Importance of offer
ing educational advantages to the
future citizens of Southern California.
Southern California is in need of a
separate university said Superin-
tendent Keppel. with the situation
existing today at Berkeley, with the
state university crowded beyond its
capacity and many students being
turned away, can see no just remedy
but a new lschool.. Take into con-
sideration the distance. 1t Is either a
day or night on the road and an ex-
penditure of about SIT from Los An
geles to Berkeley, and this many peo-
pie cannot afford. Consequently, boys
and girls go without university train
ing. 1t Is worse for those living
farther south.
UNIVERSITY DEMANDS GROW
I'VE must provide at once for rapid
increase in school population. One
third of the students now attending
rchool at Berkeley are from the south
,rn counties. The university sends out
/ statement that If the increase still
{ >ntinues $5,000,000 must be raised at
d ice for enlarging 1t.
rWhy not give this money to South
Elm California and let it take care of
thu boys and girls nearer home? This
is by no means a state dividing plan,
as some have suggested, but a plan
for state unison-in providing better
education for its coming citizens"
Suggestion of better industrial edu
cation In the schools and regarding the
appointment of supervisors. the power
or gh school and city school boards,
the teachers, superintendents and prin-
cipals was also made by MT. Keppel.
The problem of the extension of the
compulsory school law from IA to 16
years was presented by Superintendent
Francis in q brief talk. He also urged
an appropriation from the state for the
maintenance Of vacation schools In
which children can be kept from the
streets and bad habits in the vacation
period. He also brought up the mat
ter of legalizing at once the intermedl-
ate school.
Senator-elect L. G. Gates made a
short speech in which he made known
his sympathy with all educational
work, having been a school teacher, but
made no promises as to the action of
the next assembly.
w. B. Reed. principal of the San
Pedro street school. acted as toast
master.
The following legislators were guests:
Senators c. W. Bell, H. NJ. Hurd. N.
w. Thompson and Senator-elect Lee c.
Gates, and Assemblymen w. A. Lamb,

SHE'S VISITING RELATIVE
S. P. Auditors Fears Over Alb
Sence of Spouse AIlayed

The police of two cities began looking
for Mrs. f. A Van Alstine, wife OF the
Southern Pacific auditor, yesterday,
when her husband informed them that
his wife and child had left their home
in Pasadena for Long Beach in the
morning to visit Mrs. Pearl Wyatt and
had not been seen nor heard from for
several hours.
The fears of husband and police were
allayed last night By a message re-
ceived from Mrs. Frank Reynolds, own
er of cafeteria in North Pasadena and
mother Of Mrs. Van Alstine, that her
daughter is visiting relatives in Los
Angeles. Mrs. Reynolds said her daugh-
ater had left word she was visiting rel
atives in Long Beach, but in fact went
to Los Angeles. The husband became
alarmed when he learned his wife and
child were not in the beach city.
Van AIstine Joined his family in Los
Angeles last night and was overjoyed
to find no harm had come to them.

TO HASTEN REBUILDING
OF BURNED ART COLLEGE
Students Housed Temporarily in
MiIIer'S Hall, GarVanZa

Plans are being pushed by William
Lees Judson, dean of the College of
Fine Arts, U. S. c., for the reconstruc-
ton of the college buildings, which
were destroyed by fire early Friday
morning. Professor Judson announces
that the college will be rebuilt as soon
as the debris can be cleared away and
will be carried on a larger scale than
heretofore. Miller's hall, Garvanza, has
been secured temporarily for the use
of the various classes, and it is ex-
pected that within a month tempor-
ary building will be erected on the col
lege grounds until the completion OF
the new buildings.
In addition to the college buildings,
which were particularly artistic, much
of the decoration being the handiwork
of the various classes, Professor Jud-
son lost his entire art library, col
lection of rare Indian baskets, dra-
peries collected in many visits abroad
and a large collection of musical in
struments, in addition to his entire
collection OF paintings dating from his
student days in Paris.
The alumni of the college met yes
terday afternoon and passed resolu
tions of sympathy and expressing ad-
miration for the energy OF the dean

lege at once.

TEACHERS WILL STRIVE
FOR MELODY IN VOICES
Instructors in Music Department
of Public Schools Arrange
for Vocal Training

If the efforts of the music depart
ment of the Los Angeles public schools
are to be successful, the nasal twang
which a boy or girl may have acquired
will soon disappear, at least SO far as
this city is concerned.
Miss katherine d. Stone, head of
the musical department, is the chief
upon themselves the responsibility of
teaching the school children to talk
through their throats instead of
through their noses. Through the chill
dren she hopes that the movement will
spread to the homes. SO that in time
this city will be noted as the land of
soft, melodious voice.
TO gather material for her work of
instruction, Miss Stone has gone east.
During her absence Miss Carrie d.
Truslow, her assistant, Is in charge.
1--WE hope to cultivate a typically
musical voice in Los Angeles" said
Miss Truslow. TN entering on the
work we must teach the children to
become discriminating musical critics.
If the idea of the musical department
prevails, children of Los Angeles
great masters in music as they are
with the nursery rhymes and litera-
ture. They will recognize the pictures
of Schubert, Verdi and Mozart as
readily as those of Washington and
Lincoln. To encourage proper speak
ing 1t is essential that a knowledge of
music be obtained"
The work has progressed to the ex-
tent that fhe department is planning
a musical festival of several days
duration. 1t probably viii be held in
May. The festival is expected to
deepen the interest OF pupils in music
and to Danish all nasal twang. Miss
Alma StickeI and Miss May Abbott
are the other teachers of the depart
ment who are cooperating in the cru
sade for purer voice.

proceeds of the sales of which are used
to strike death blows to the white
plague.
In order to obtain as much money as
possible to aid the consumptive poor,
the committee will ask merchants to
use the stamps as much as possible,
especially upon the mail which they
send out of this city, and also to give
them such adVanta geous displays that
the general buying public will be aware
that such seals, which at once will aid
the suffering, convey a pleasant greet
ing and advertise the city, may readily
be purchased.
The stamps have no suggestion of
the terrible tuberculosis about them
being largely in red and with a border
of green holly leaves, and bearing the
name of the city and state from which
they are sent, together with the legend,
"The Seasons Greetings" They also
bear a representation of the goddess
of hygiene, with her foot upon the
dragon of disease; the sun, a sign of
life and hope, and the odd cross which
is familiar to those working against
tuberculosis
In the last bulletin of the State Tu-
berculosis association there is a long
description of the stamps. telling how
the proceeds of their sales aid the sick
ana Ine dying anu prevent olneTS from
succumbing TO consumption. Attention
also is called to a mandate of the gov
ernment that Christmas stamps or
seals, of any nature. must be placed
upon the backs of envelopes and pack
ages"
In connection with his campaign for
the sale of the seals, DR.. George H.
Kress, chairman of the stamp commit
tee, says: with more than 700 deaths
from tuberculosis in Los Angeles every
year, it is imperative that some organ
ization should make a business of not
only bringing certain amount of re-
lief to these unfortunate people. but of
teaching them what to do so that the
lives of other citizens may not be
placed in jeopardy

SHERIFF SHIP

 For Before They Leave For
 Chattanooga.

: Washington, January 29.-Sheriff Joseph F. Shipp, Nick Nolan and Luther Will liams. the three men who were sentenced to 90 days in jail for contempt of the su- preme court of the United States for their connection with the lynching of the negro Ed Johnson in Chattanooga in 1906, f1n- ished their sentences and were released this morning at s:07 o'clock.
 Although the men could have left the jail any time after midnight, they de- cided to wait till morning. when friends were to call for them with automobiles and entertain them during the day.
 Shipp, the old Confederate veteran, with e worn military cape thrown over his shoulders, stepped out into the raw morn- ing air as the prison door swung open. The old mans face was ruddy. He took in a long breath and as he turned to the deputy warden there was break in the old soldiers voice, when he grasped the keepers hand and said:
 we were both soldiers. You were here the first to receive me when came and here you are the last to say goodby. I have had pleasant time here, but when come again I hope it will be under more favorable circumstances"
 The 6her1n was pla1nly aHected at tne parting, as the keepers, one by one, came out into the yard and stood in the soft snow as Shipp walked along to each and said goodby.
 Not an inmate had remained moment to get their suitcases, but followed the sheriff out to the waiting automobiles.
 Just as they were ready to start the sheriff remembered he had left his smok- ing jacket up in the little top floor room, where the three men had spent their confinement A keeper got 1t and the old man tucked it under his cape and was ready to go. The three men turned and took a last look at the walls of the jail as the automobiles whizzed away.
 Nolan and Williams were entertained today by members of fraternal order to which they belong, and Sheriff Shipp was entertained by a friend. The men left at 10 o'clock tonight for Chattanooga.
 Ex-Sheriff Shipp called at the supreme court of the United States today to pay his respects and to assure the court that he bore no i'll will for his sentence of Imprisonment.
 '.I did entertain hard feelings toward the government of the United States many years ago." said he, 'but I was whipped and I resolved never to do 1t again, and have not"

 Prices of commodities are measured in money. In dollars and cents. Money is simply measure Of value. It is in it. self of no value. Our monetary system is based, not son the cost of labor, but on the supply of gold. Therefore, the rise in the prices of the necessities of life means that there has been an in- crease in the ratio of gold as compared to these necessities.
 But an inquiry into the cost of living means nothing unless we also inquire into tho incomes with which the living has to be purchased. At this point 1t be- comes necessary to decide which class of people are to be investigated.
 The cost of living has not advanced for the owning class, because the increase in their income has far exceeded the in- crease in the prices of commodities. The
