JOBS ARE IN JEOPARDY
MASK GALL PHOTO THREATENS
THREE TEACHERS POSITIONS.
Oklahoma Boare o. Education Sees
One Attired as cannibaI, Others
as Grizzly Bear and az
Western Outlaw.

AIva, Okla.-Three young women
teachers of the Normal School who
went to masquerade ball in 1908 and
posed with 10 other women teachers
for a fiashlight picture In costumes
after the ball have registered a SOL
emn vow never again to allow them
selves to get within range Of a cam
era, except under the most conven-
tional conditions.
A copy of this bah masQue picture
has fallen into the hands of the State
Board of Education and members of
the board have doubts about reap
pointing those made up as the grizzly
bear, the cannibal and the Western
outlaw. They argue that young wo-
men who would attend 4 ball in such
costumes are lacking in some Of the
qualities which go to make up the
character of q successful teacher.
The cannibal girl wore a fuzzy cos.
tune around her shoulders and waist
but as the building of the costume
proceeded the material seemed to run
short and she did not carry 1t below
the knees. From there down to heI
dancing slippers her costume was ol
very gauzy silk.
The grizzly bear girl had an effect
i've costume made Of robes, and there
didn't appear to be any immodesty II
It. but she has been placed on the list
The third girl was made up like ,
frontier bad man and wore a heav!
black mustache, carried big revolver
and looked real mean
One young woman teacher was OF
the list as having appeared in a cos
tune built on lines Of rigid economy
She was indignant at the charge ant
not only proved that she was not II
the picture, but was not even at tn
ball. much to her regret at the time
Members Of the board assert tina
the picture Of the young women Il
masquerade costumes Is very, YER
bad, and to assure themselves Of 1t
naughtiness they keep looking at
from time to time.

An AlrshIp Dinner.

Every one is more or less inter.
ested in tho great experiments being
made in aviation, SO with this in mind
q hostess used lovely miniature air
ship gotten at the toy department,
over her table at = dinner given for
eight guests. The favors were diminu
tive airships and the place cards were
painted with balloons and airships
floating over the surface of the card.
Each guest was asked to express his
or her opinion upon the success OF
aeroplanes: as several Of the guests
had had actual experience this was
a most interesting feature Of the af.
fair. One Of the women had been
up" and another was about to accept
an invitation, SO 1t was all very ex.
citing. Perhaps the time Is not far
distant when "sky" pilots will be as
necessary as those on the sea.

Ut IS only in recent years that Amer
leans have taken the matter OF
dressing the hair into such serious
consideration, as to call upon mis-
tory and art for inspiration. But. once
awakened to the desirability Of variety
as well as beauty in coiffures, 1t was
inevitable that American enterprise
should ransack the world for ideas
and win first place in the number and
beauty OF the designs produced Not
even the French excel us. For
Americans are not satisfied with arti-
fee that is too apparently artifice,
however attractive. They must have
artif1oe that is lost sight Of In its
results. French hair-dressers. brought
to this country, have to add to their
knowledge Of methods. the American
finishing touch" and to learn also
to cater to individual taste.
Once launched new couture
taken up with truly American en-
thusiasm. and alas! before its course
Is run, is even more than likely to be
exaggerated beyond all resemblance
to the original beautiful model. and
to loose its identity. This stage
marks its finish. But the producers
Of designs, (of whom there are very
few are ready with something new
with the recurrence Of each spring
and fall. And let no woman. however
beautiful, neglect to occasionally
change the style Of her coiffure or for
get that her crowning glory has beer
the admiration Of men for ages.
The demure and lovely Flemish
coiffure came in with the spring ant
soon became furore with youthful
wearers. Smooth coils OF hair ar
ranged across tho back Of the heat
and over the ears, and uncovered
brow, with hair parted in the middle
or at one side few straying curl!

MISS COUz|NS SAYS
Declares She Was Persecut-

Attributing her present penniless oon-

in her day one of the leading women

clared that when she files suit against

will be brought to light which will
startle the nation.
Miss Couzins this morning made pub

She told of her differences with Presi-

Quietly and unostentatiously the
British government sent to the United
States a statue of Lord Nelson, the hero
Of Trafalgar, and this was placed at
the United States Naval Academy. Am.

1T was an outrage. Nelson was the
naval man who defeated the French at

during the Revolutionary war. Had the

than, Kent England, one Sunday
preached from the text "Who art

pause for the congregation to reflect
upon the words, when a man in mill
tary dress who at that instant was
marching very sedately up the middle
aisle Of the church, supposing 1t a
question addressed to him, replied, Il
am, sir, an officer of the Sixteenth
regiment of foot on recruiting party
here, and, having brought my wife
and family with me, l am come to

Rinoino For cofer.

Among the queer church customs In
England is the one observed at New
ark parish church, called ringing for
gofer." This custom, which has lasted
for over 300 years, arose through
wealthy merchant named Golfer losing
himself one October night in the forest
that then surrounded Newark. He
carried much money, and the forest
was infested with thieves. Suddenly
he heard the sound of Newark bells
and was guided safely home by their
music. To commemorate his escape
Gofer left a goodly sum for Newark
hell ringers on condition that they
.rano for Gofer' every year on sun
dav nights in October and November
