But like all pendulums, / am afraid
this one Is inclined to swing too far
the other way
The girl OF today is very anxious
to stand erect instead of with the
dropping posture of her grandmoth-
er's day she does not sometimes bend
too far backward.
She wants to be sensibly frank.
Isn't she sometimes fooIishly so?
She thinks she talks of all these
matters merely to be sensible. and to
show that she is not afraid to call
spade a spade.
But 1 wonder does no other motive
ever creep in?
Does the excitement. the intimacy,
the thrill of venturing on the forbid
den ground hand-in hand with him
have nothing to do with her desire to
be frank?
Uderstand me. 1 do not mean that
this is a deliberate conscious motive
Rather one of these deeply hidden
springs of action who's epresence can
only be revealed even to ourselves by
a trip to the bottom of our hearts
Indeed. I do not mean to be harsh
nor to impugn your modesty, dear
honest. frank. little girls of the TWEEN
tieth century.
hate prudishness as much as you
do
But I want you to stand on this
matter neither dropping forward nor
bending gracefully backward, but
fiely and splendidly erect.
So you will try to be sure you are
doing that. won't you?

The Evening Chit-Chat
BY RUTH CAMERON

Some topic OF sex came up the other
day and young gagged girl detailed
to us her fiance's views on the sub
ject.
A sweet little old lady leaned for
ward and listened intently to the young
girls words, and when she had finished
cried out in evident wonder: But you
don't really mean YOU talked over all
that with him?"
why, yes" said the girl. I'VE feel
that it is false modesty to be afraid
of talking about such real vital things,
and so IL they happen to come up. we
are not afraid to speak out. of course
we always talk about them in a per-
fectly nice way"
The little old lady shook her head
''Of course. it's all right my dear,
or / know you wouldn't do 1t, but
I'm sure you never did. Why, Just
imagine. Johns telling me about -
about-the old lady's lips refused to
name the subject-about things like
that" she finished. before we were
married. Well, well. I suppose times
have changed"
1t was twilight. but even in the
semi-darkness / could see that the
little old lady was blushing.
Times have changed in this par
ticular.
The pendulum was swung from the
extreme of an ultra-modesty that at
| tempted to ignore the existence of sex.
and that fed from any frank speech on
that subject as from a plague and that
either produced or assumed ridiculous
ignorance of vital things, instead of
fine. fearless Innocence.
And this. 1 think. is very, very good.

EATS EIGHT AT EIGHTY-sIx.
The newspapers recently told of a
remarkable crop of old-fahsioned Van
diver apples from tree in John W.
Fergusons orchard near Milton. The
tree is nfnety-three years old. or seven
years older than Mr.. Ferguson, whose
accomplishments are not limited to APP
pie raising. He is hale and hearty at
eighty-six. has never had the rheuma-
tism. and not much sickness of any
kind. and says he can outrun, outjump
or throw down any man of his age in
the state.
Mr. Ferguson is champion OF the
apple dumping, particularly IL it is
made of vandiver apples. He was visit
ed recently by his nephew, Louis will
cox. of Los Angeles, who challenged
him to an apple dumping contest
When the contest was over the referee
found that Ferguson had eaten eight
and one half and Wilcox nine. and they
were big dumplings at that, as they
would have to be when made of VAN
diver apples.

BoYs DEATH DUE TO WHISKY.
Coroner Pierce of Richmond yester-
day concluded his investigation OF the
death of Ernest J. Weber. seventeen
year-old boy, who died two weeks ago
a few hours after drinking quantity
of whisky given him by three men. who
have been In jail since the day follow
ing Weber's death. The coroner re-
ports that an analysis of the contents
of webers stomach has shown that the
liquor was per cent. alcohol. No pois-
on other than alcohol was found. Death
was due the coroner says, to acute alec :
holism. His verdict does not fix the re-
sponsibility. and whether the three men
can be prosecuted for anything more
serious than giving liquor to minors has
not been determined.

Premium List Issued

1t is surprising to note how many
fruit and poultry raisers and ranchers
in general overlook the easy money to
be won at the various fairs and exhibi-
tions held in the Inland Empire. We
have just received copy of the 1911
premium list issued by the Spokane
Interstate Fair, which contains an un-
usually generous list of cash prizes,
amounting in all to about $780, 900. This
money is really to be given away as
prizes on live stock, agricultural pro-
ducts and other exhibits, and doubtless
much of it could be won by exhibitors in
this locality if they would take the trou
BILE to send in exhibits.
The Spokane fair management do all
they can to induce exhibitors to come
in, the railroads and express companies
make special reduced rates on exhibits,
and every question which might arise is
carefully explained in this premium
list. and vet only very small percent
age OF the people who might exhibit
successfully do so. Possibly the fact
that the prizes for this eighteenth an
nual Spokane fair have been very large
ly increased may interest new exhibitors
this year. We notice that the apple
prizes alone amount to SASS so, an in
crease of $500 over the amount offered
