A PROTEST
AGAINST JONES SYSTEM

Between $50 and 200 citizens of
Orchard Heights and the district to
the east of Hillyard met last night
and registered a protest against
the shutting off of their water sup
ply by Arthur ID. Jones and heartily
commended the action of the Spo-
kane city council in taking meas
ures for their relief.
There are 300 voters in the dis
trict east of Hillyard formerly sup
piled by the Arthur ID. Jones water
system, and nearly as many water
consumers as there are voters. The
sense of the meeting was that the
Arthur d. Jones system be cast in
to the scrap heap and that the peo-
pie of orchard Heights, plated and
sold by Jones, cooperate with the
citizens of Cannondale in getting
water from the city of Spokane.
A committee was appointed to
look after the employment of legal
counsel to protect the interests Of
he people in that section of the city
and fight the Jones outfit to the
last ditch. The right of Jones to
lay claim to the service connections
will be fought in court If asserted.
ID. Alexander was chairman of
the meeting and ]. w. Bowen sec

THE FEET DON'T COUNT IN
DANCING, SAYSORPlHELlME EXPERT

1T isn't feet that count In dane
ing. Watch your hands and your
eyes, and your fet will take care Of
themselves"
That's the startling statement
with which William Rock, senior
partner in the dancing duo of Rock
and Maude Fulton. headliners at the
Orpheum this week, prefaced talk
on terpsichOry as he stood in the
wings of the vaudeville house last
night. He admitted that legless
person might have some difficulty
in making a hit as a dancer, but he
still insisted that legs weren't es-
sentials and proceeded to prove it.
miss Fulton and / call ourselves
creators of characters in dance and
before we came to this circuit
acted many of the characters in the
legitimate.
Real dancing cannot be taught
I have danced and given dancing
lessons for the last 10 years, but
have yet to take the first lesson my
self. never practice dance step.
If 1t doesn't come natural, don't
use 1t. Nevertheless, cannot take
dancing seriously. love acting and
the creation of characters, and my
dances and Miss Fulton's are all
portrayals of characters. We never
use a song or dance without the
cOncomitant characters.
Here's another point that I want
to make, too. Every dancer must be
musician. I have known great
singers who could hardly stay on a
tune, but never dancers. A dancer
must live and appear and move in
rhythm always and all the time. His
every movement must go dunn
diddy-ay-dum-dum'."
Just then the headliners were
called and Maude Fulton and Rock
went on the stage, while the inter-
viewing man secured a coign of
vantage where he could see the
theories interpreted which had just
been expounded to him. Rock used
to play with Eddie Foy in 1.-THE
Orchid" One of the best of the half
dozen interpretations given by Rock
last night was from this play, and
was styled the "Tiger Hunter" The
tattered, withered, half witted old
man portrayed in front Of the foot
lights impressed the audience more
as acting than dancing pure and
simple. and Rock had thus attained
his end.
1.-The Melodrama Dance" was a
perfect burlesque and ELECTED fur
ious salvos Of applause. They went
into this dance heart and soul both
of them, and kept heir audience on
edge all the time. Another dance
which is worthy of special comment
is the Devil Dance" which has a
wonderful lesson to teach. But II is

A Sensible Mother.

In these delightful days of free aft
ernoo lecture courses, demonstra-
lions, household economics exhibits
and song recitals it comes hard for an
up to date and much interested wo-
man to stay at home because she has
OF more little one and no maid.
If, however, she follows the example
of a certain e%nterprising young house
mother she may very comfortably take
in many a treat Of this sort. The
mother in question takes her set of
happy. healthy and very active little
twins with her-not only to concert
and lecture, but every second or third
Sunday to church as well-without any
trouble to herself or any annoyance
to the rest Of the audience or cOngre-
cation, because she also always car
ries with her a large stiff covered
copybook and two we'll s%harpened
pencils. She always sits between the
two little ones, and just as soon as
they become restless she spreads the
book out upon her lap, hands each
child a pencil and then is able to give
her attention to what is going on on
the platform or in the pulpit, while
the small boy and little lassie are busy
printing out nursery rhymes and
dra wing pictures.

Training the Nervous Child.

This bit Of good advice on taking
care of W children is found in
the last number Of the Healthy Home:
Intiexible regulations are essential in
the training Of the child, be-
cause it is only by them that a habit
can be gradually formed which shall
serve as a barrier to shelter the child
from it's Inheritance. Iron rules should
prevail as to regularity Of meals and
bedtime. Displays Of temper or of
oversensitiveness or Of morbid emo
tionality should be met with firmness
in the one ease and kindly Indifference
in the other. They do not call for
nagging or admiration or panic on the
part Of the elders.
There may be a good deal of com
non sense in the idea that strict rules
are kinder than lax ones when nerv-
Gus. high strung children are to be
dealt with. When once the fact is
learned that a regulation must be ad'
hered to a child accepts it as a mat
ter Of course, and innumerable little
struggles, as wearying to the child As
to the parent. are avoided.
