man at $500 per year to do expert
mental work in horticulture,
Some time ago Professor A. l.. Me-
lander was offered $4,000 a year by
the state horticultural commission of
California. The board authorized
that the offer be met, and fixed Pro-
fessor Melander's salary at that fig
ure.
A short course in agriculture, hor-
ticulture and home economics was au-
thorized to be held at Puyallup some
time during February, after the win
ter short course closes at this place.
Professors George L. Clothier, head
of the forestry division, was author
lied to organize a party and cruise
some of the timber lands belonging to
the State College. This will probably
be done next summer, giving adj
partment chance to get out in the
woods" and do some of the actual
work of forestry eXami nation and
management. The college owns some
of the finest forest tracts in the state.
Acting President o. L. Waller, who,
during the past summer, has been
charged with the responsibility of in
stalling the lighting plant, reported
the installation complete, and the sys-
TEN was approved by the board

SPOKANE HIGH WON
BASKET BALL GAME
Pullman Boys Put Up Fast Game. but
We're EXcelIed i'm Team
Work

A large and enthusiastic crowd
gathered at the college gymnasium
Tuesday evening to see the basket
ball game between the Spokane and
Pullman high school teams.
The visitors eXcelled the home boys
in team work. time after time making
a series of long and we'll directed
passes down the field to the Pull
man goal.
First half-Sanders of the visitors
threw a basket in the first three min
utes of play. and scored two more
baskets during the half. Fancher al
so succeeded in making two baskets.
Butler was the only Pullman player
to make basket in this half Each
team had four trials at goal from
fouls, Moss making two good and
Fancher none. The score at the end
of first half stood; Spokane, 10;
Pullman, a.
Second half-In the latter part of
the second half both teams made
changes in their line-ups, BrownelI
being substituted for Fred Glover
and for the visitors Gibson took
Sanders place and Zimmerman went
in for Abrams. In this half Spokane
succeeded in throwing four more bas-
kets, Moss making the only one for
Pullman. Out of two trials at goal
from fouls Moss made one good, while
Spokane failed in their one trial. The
game ended with final score stand
ing: Spokane, IS; Pullman, 7.
For Pullman Moss and Butler were
the individual stars. Moss making
five of the seven points for the home
team; while for the visitors Fancher
and Sanders did the best work, the
former making points and the lat

seekers visiting the Palouse country
instead of going through Spokane to
the coast, He commended the pub
licity work which Pullman has been
doing and made some excellent sug-
gestions as to effective methods of
advertising.
Wallace r. Struble was mex intro
duced and made a rousing address,
which brought forth frequent ap-
plause After paying an ELOQUENT
tribute to the varied resources, eli
mate and soil of the district en-
braced in the eight counties which
had united for publicity purposes, he
urged that great care should be exer-
cised against any exaggerations or
misstatem ents in descriptive advertis-
ing, He further argued that equal
care should be exercised in trying to
bring the very best class of people
to locate here. He emphasized the
Importance of giving visiting home
seekers hearty welcome.
Lee Johnson of Sunnyside. a mem
Der of the board of regents of the
Washington State College, was intro
duced and gave a short but very in
teresting talk, in which he took the
position that too many people out
here are building houses and improy-
Ing their places with view of SELL
ing. rather than of making perma-
nent homes. He also emphasized the
fact that nearly every section is par
ticularly adapted to some certain line
of production. and that particular at
tention should be given by each COM
munity to the crop or industry to
which the land is best adapted He
eulogized the work of the State Col
lege and predicted that Its scope of
useful work would continue to be
broadened.
Before adjourning a resolution
was offered by j. N. Emerson and
unanim ously adopted, pledging the
hearty cooperation of the Pullman
Chamber of Commerce in the work of
the Idaho-Washington Development
League.

break all records Last year the
postal receipts for the month of De-
cember aggregated $1760.35. and it is
estimated by postal employees that
this year the December recei pts will
reach and possibly exceed the $4,000
mark. There is no surer criterion of
the financial status of community
than the Christmas postal business.
and the immense amount of business
done by the local office this week
again proves that the Palouse coun-
try, and especially Pullman and the
country Immediately adjacent to it,
is the richest, as well as the most pro-
ductive section of the entire North
west.

BOARD Of REGENTS DEFERS
ACTION On NEW MANAGER
Salaries Regulated for Teachers in Summer School Two
designations Accepted. In Session Two Days

At the meeting of the board of re-
gents of the college, which was held
Wednesday and Thursday of the pres
ent week, no action was taken in the
matter of appointing a graduate
manager OF athletics, Acting Presi-
dent Waller and the board deciding it
preferable to take little more time
to look into the merits of the several
candidates, and to study the general
situation with reference to the man
agement of the student activities and
appointment.
One rather important matter was
taken up having to do with the COM
pensation of faculty members teach
ing in the summer science school for
teachers. Such compensation for
members of the faculty was fixed at
500 for all individuals teaching in
the summer school, whose salary for
the current year was $500 or less;
1925 for those receiving more than
$500 and less than $500; $3.50 for
all those receiving $500 or more
The provision was made that in all in
stances heads of departments should
receive $3.50 for the six weeks serv-
ice. The above will be conditioned on
the amount of teaching which is done
by any member of the faculty.
Two designations were presented,
one of Mr. S. G. Engell, who at the be-
ginning of the year was employed as
instructor of voice. Mr.. Engell came
TO Pullman. from New York, where he
had had considerable throat trouble,
and desired to move to a climate sim
liar to that of Southern California.
he misunderstood the nature of the
weather in Pullman, and was obliged
to leave on account or increasing diff
Ilculties with his throat. Mr.. Elmer
A. Tilden, instructor in architecture,
offered his resignation. which was ac-
cepted.
MI. Z. e. Langlois was transferred
70 the department of horticulture and
~ instructor in Horticulture and
sSruening. Mr.. Claude sprague,
loieman OF the horticultural depart
mene' was made an assistant in horti-
ure' and attached to the expert
' station at the same salary he
~" receives. The department of
oi icuiture and the director of the

The number of incoming registered
parcels is averaging so per day, as
against so for last year, while the
stamp sales are running 1925 per
day an increase of about SIS over the
same period of last year.
Each city carrier is compelled to
make two extra trips daily to handle
the Christmas parcels addressed to
patrons on his route and several hours
more each day are required to serve
the different city routes. The rural
carriers also are having their troubles
and are working extra hours to serve
the farmers.
