HAVE you GOOD MOTION HABITS?
They're Of More Value Than Words, a
Lecturer on Poetic Dancing Says.

New York. Feb. 25.-"Can you make
yourself understood without speaking?
Have you good motion habits?"
Can you tell what a friend really
means by the way he carries his arms
and holds his head?"
These are pertinent questions in
spired by the address of Mrs. Mary
Perry King, who appeared yesterday
afternoon at Mendelssohn hall in a
presentation of American poetic dane
ing. The remarks of Mrs. King con-
cerned poetic motion as a really nee
essary quantity in the development Of
character.
Good motion habits" she said, ARE
essential to good breeding. To acquire
them scientifically in some cases is
difficult, but delightful. A woman's in
tuition is nothing less than an ability
to read signs, motions of the body, ex-
pressions of the face-and these are Of
really more value to her than the
words she hears. With her, success is
not so much talk as 1t is movement.

Girls Learn to Drive Nails.

Wayne, Neb, Feb. 26.-Special to
The News: Some of the girls Of
northern Nebraska can drive nails bet
ter than their fathers, can equal the
veteran carpenter at saving a straight
line and can turn out lathe work that
has the earmarks Of the experts hand.
When they get married they'll be
able to repair the broken chairs,
straighten up warped doors, turn out
rolling pins on a lathe with their
own hands, and, if need be, help to
build the family dwelling house.
It's something new-this radical de-
parture of girls into the heavy manual
labor that has been performed since
the time of Father Adam. when at
all, by the masculine end of the human
family. But it demonstrates that
there's little the north Nebraska girl
hasn't the nerve to undertake.
1t is in the manual training depart.
ment of the Wayne Normal school
that this new girl" has come into ex.
istence.
Here she goes, with the hard-mus-
cled sons from the farm, and does
her share of the class work in ham
mering things together, driving nails,
cutting boards to pieces in straight
lines with the saw and turning out
real lathe work.
While the boys wear overalls, the
girls in the class wear great, big
aprons like their mothers used to
make. And they pitch into the work
like professionals.
Besides using the knowledge when
they get out to teaching school, they
will be equipped for practical rene.
dies in case of many emergencies.

Asks Her to Wed His Son.

Saturday a Hoskins farmer afte"
making purchase at one of the local
department stores, inquired the age of
the accommodating clerk and asked if
she were married. He then told her
of his son, who is 80 years of age,
single and living all alone on fine
farm near Hoskins. He believed she
would make his son an ideal wife, and
then he asked the young lady to bind
the bargain with her consent.
Whether the clerk was too overcome
with the offer, or whether silence
gives consent, the farmer has yet to
find out. The young lady blushingly
left the farmer to wait on himself
This second offer for a bride does
not quite come up to the one recently
offered a young woman clerk several
weeks ago when farmer offered her
two farms and $4,000 for her hand in
marriage with her son.

MYSTERY IN 'THE HOUSE

In speaking of "The House of a
Thousand Candles" the attraction at
the Oregon theatre on "Wednesday
night, the Chicago Tribune says: "If
you like mystery you will derive
pleasure from seeing "The House of
a Thousand Candles" at the Garrick
where it opened last night and kept
large audience unusually well en-
tertained. 1t is just a story-not a
stage transcript from life, but the
story is a cleverly devised and inter
estng one, and holds attention from
the first curtain to the last. 1t is a
good entertainment of a high grade
dramatically, and IL the theatregoer
doesn't patronize literally. then 1t
will be because the public's taste has
changed nightly in the last few
days"
The original production is booked
here, and the management is guar
anteed that the theatre patrons Of the
Oregon will see this play in just the
same manner as produced at the
Hackett and Daly's theatres In New
York and the Garrick theatre. Chi
