TEST SENTIMENT TO
MAKE TEXAS DRY

San Antonion, Tex, Jan. 31.-July
22nd has been designated as the day
on which the voters of Texas will
pass upon statewide prohibition. So
far as the west and southwest sec
tions of the state are concerned. it is
generally conceded that the verdict
will be "wet." In east Texas, howev
err. the dry" element is quite strong
and it remains to be seen what the
final verdict will be. One thing. how
ever is sure: the State of the Lone
Star will be full OF oratory both wet
and dry from now until election.

YOUR DAUGHTER.
By EDWIN A. NYE.

Princess Mary Of England Is learn
Ing shorthand and typewriting and Is
becoming quite proficient at both.
Well. why not?
Is there any reason why a kings
daughter should be denied her chance
to be useful:
Good Queen Victoria stamped many
of her virtues on her posterity, and her
descendants are showing proficiency
even to the fourth generation.
Princess Mary. it is said. enjoys her
work.
Which Is all the better. He or she
who can find satisfaction in a task has
discovered the near secret to happi-
ness.
Pleasure comes by doing, not daily
ing or dabbling.
That the princess means business is
shown by the fact that she has opened
a bank account in the postofi1ce saw
ings bank and expects to get real
wages for her work and deposit the
earnings.
or course she will not open a public
stenographer's Office or so into bust
ness employment. though she ID pre-
pared to do that should the king bust
ness get slack.
Father George will have plenty of
work for her Mt Buckingham palace.
She might be his majesty's private
typewriter or social secretary for her
mother, the queen.
Anyway
This Mary hath chosen the better
part.
She has chosen an occupation In
which she finds the delight Of doing
She will be able, If accessory, to make
her own living.
And beyond all that
She puts the stamp Of her influence
ON useful service and lends q gracious
dignity to all labor.
|. And your daughter?
Is she learning how to run a type
writer or nurse a patient or teach Z
school or conduct a home? Can sha
earn her living? Does she believe II
service to the world? Is the dignity O.
work a part Of her creed?
Or is she pampered and petted AMI
made to believe that she Is above thu
necessity for daily toll?
Is your daughter better than kings

Facts for Swimmers aud Land.
Lubbers

I'm an article on swimming in
the August Woman's Home Com
panion, the author records a great
deal of information that is lust
as interesting to landlubbcrs as
it is helpful to young swimmers.
Following is brief extract:
'lt may surprise some new swim
mers to know that one can both
see and hear under water. Seeing
is not difficult, when once YOU
have the idea firmly planted i'm
mind that water will not hurt your
eyes. Particularly is this true of
sea water, the salt in which is
soothing, rather than irritating.
But never open your eyes to see
under water before you are under
water never dive with the ewes
open, or 90 from surface to un-
derneath, or vice versa. with the
eyes open. The water at it's sur
face seems to have an actual edge.
which stings the eye. Learn to
swim with three limbs, to dispense
with either arms or either leg.
You may need an arm to bring
ashore some one who needs help.
you may have a cramp some time
and have to do without one of
your 'propellers. The trick is
easy, it is merely more tiresome
to swim without one leg or one
arm, but not much harder than to
swim with all.
AS the very strongest man i'm the
world is u weakling in the grasp of
a good-sized comber, such waves
must be outwitted, not outwres-
tied; and. to bc at home i'm the
breakers, even beyond your depth.
it is only necessary to know what
a wave really is and where it is
weak. Many people believe their
eyes and are sure that wave tray
els. The water moves up and
down. and the motion moves for
ward, but the water doesn't travel.
Consequently if you get beyond
the breakers the waves will 90 up
and down and carry you with them
but wont sweep You forward.
Near the shore tic waves behave
differently; they curl over and
break, and there the water, as we'll
as the motion, travels. And if YOU
are just at the curling point, the
water will pick YOU up and sweep
YOU i'm and you can literally ride
the waves than which there is NO
finer sport in the sea. But woe
unto you if you get bit ahead
of the curling wave front. for
then you will he turned oyer and
twisted around and flung to
the bottom.
Hence it is wise to experiment
with little waves first and learn
just where they do break and lust
where they actually commence to
exert a forward movement ON
your body before testing YOUR
