HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS
SURPRISE THEIR TEACHERS

Spokane, Wash.-When the girls
senior class of the North Central high
school reported for study Thursday
morning there was a transformation
that for a time led the pedagogues to
believe the world had become young
er in night. Following the annual
custom of the senior A class it was
ordained by bevy Of girls that for
one day previous to graduation each
should appear in maidenly simplicity,
without rats" and frills and the van
tiles so dear to the feminine heart.
The transformation was magical.
Great masses of soft tresses, shorn
Of their hideous Elizabethan en-
croachments. glistened in the subdued
light and isis Hopkins braids found
favor among the schemes of simpli-
city. Youthful hearts that had been
| wont to worship at artificial beauty's
shrine, bowed in abject surrender be-
fore their respective queens. But
| tomorrow the discarded frills will re.
appear and the sweet dream of mas
culine youth will, like the Arab, van.
ish in the night.

DEEP WE'LL BEGINS
ACTING QUEERLY

On an orchard tract near wenat-
chee. wash, west Of Spokane. there is
we'll 100 feet deep that has been
acting queer the last few days. The
we'll was put down two years ago ind
until recently displayed no peculiari-
ties. A member Of the family ap-
preached the well for water few
days ago and was astonished to hear
kissing noise from the depths Of the
we'll, A closer investigation showed
that q blast of air was belching forth
through openings In the covering "
the well. Curiousiy led to further in
vestigation and couple Of the planks
covering the well were raised. 1t was
found that warm current of air was
floating upward and as near as could
be ascertained 1t was coming from a
point just below the surface OF the
water. The we'll kept belching wind
for couple Of hours About 9
o'clock in the evening a chinook wind
started to blow. and the well imme-
diately quieted down. The same phe-
nomena was repeated few days later
and those who witnessed II are great
ly puzzled to know what connection
the current Of air can have with the
chinook.

LOOKSTEP ABOLISHED

Declaring it utterly useless and

Reed, warden of the state peniten-
tiary at walla Walla, Wash, for
mally consigned the prison lock-step
to the oblivion from which 1t came.
Since the beginning the lock-step has
been the custom at the penitentiary.
When the prisoners came in to their
meals or marched out to them they
did so in lockstep. The lockstep,
stripes and other relics of more bar
barous age are thing Of the past at
Walla Walla "The lock-step and the
striped SUITS" continued Warden Reed
"have come down to US from the
past. Why or how they originated Is
now Of little interest. It suffices that
whatever may have been the reasons
which actuated their originators. they
do not hold good today. The lockstep
serves no purpose. 1t accomplishes no
good. 1t is senseless custom which
has outlived its time. The striped
suit has not been seen here for some
time. The prisoners wear plain gray
clothes, with no distinguishing mark
but the prison number"

MAKE WORKING MODEL
OF BIG HOTEL BUILDING

Houston, Tex.-Employing a force
of carpenters, obtaining city permit
for the structure and erecting with
care a working model Of
a gigantic building, the model being
one hundred by one hundred and
fifty feet, is new departure in
structural methods in this city. Jesse
III. Jones and associates have COM
pleted all arrangements for the erec-
ton in Houston Of seventeen story
hotel building which is to cost mil
lion and half and this company has
adopted the plans for the structure
but before beginning actual work, 1t
was decided to erect model of the
building. The main lobby, offices,
halls and rooms are shown in the
structure and it might pass for a Pc
culiar frame dwelling were 1t not for
the fact that it does not possess a
roof. The model is IL feet high and
is an exact duplicate in miniature OF
the ground floor Of the hotel. 1t Is
expected that through this medium
several complicated problems in ar
chitectural and CONSTITUTIONAL work
which have arisen since the comple-
tion of the plans will be solved.

TEXAS CITY SUBURB
CLAIMS GREAT GROWTH

Houston Heights, one Of Houston's
suburbs, has added 618 persons to her
population every year for the last ten
years, a growth which has scarcely
been ,equaled in the United States by
similar town so far as is disclosed by
the last census reports. Ten years
ego Houston Heights had 500 popula-
tion while today the town is credit
ed with 1884. There are half dozen
communities similar to this and ad-
joining this city all served by Hous-
ton car lines, telephones and public
utilities. Their working people work
in Houston and their business men
have their offices and shops in this
city but owing to Houston's restricted
boundaries, sixteen square miles, the
federal census shows this city with
less than $4,000 population. By 1920
it is proposed to have all Of these out
lying districts included in Houston
proper.

A contest for the most successful
growers of vegetables among boys be-
tween the ages of IL and 16 years

ter and the only expense will be the
actual cost of seed. A plot of ground
10 by Is feet in extent is to be used
by each contestant and If such a piece
of ground is not available in his own
back yard, the contestant will be given
the use of tract by the Y. M. C. A.
Contestants will be divided into
two classes. One will raise early and
the other late vegetables. Each d.
vision will raise four vegetables, yet
to be named, and the first division,
in addition, will cultivate sweet peas.
The first division will close its con-
test on June 23 and on that day and
the one following, an exhibition OF
the products will be made at the au-
ditorium of the Y. M. C. A. Suitable
prizes will be presented to the win.

A NEW Gull IN BELGIUM.
Followers of Healer Ask Permission
to Erect New Churches

Followers of Healer Ask Permission
to Erect New Churches.
Nearly 100000 persons in the min
ing districts of South Belgium have
signed petition asking the govern
ment for permission to erect churches
for new creed of theirs, which they
have called "Antoinism." Antoine is
the name of coal miner who some
years ago inherited little fortune
and started curing people gratuitous-
ly by mere spiritual means, based on
spiritualistic practices.
He was several times prosecuted
for illegal practice of the medical
profession, but acquitted, as he does
not pretend to make use of scientific
methods and employs his alleged mys-
terious fluid only. as a medicine to
free the sick Of their diseases. Prob
ably by the simple means Of auto
suggestion many invalids have been
restored to at least temporary health
by Antoine lie Guerisseur, who has
become so immensely popular that he
is now considered as being gifted with
divine power-hence the desire Of tho
coal miners to practice the religion
of "Antoinism" in specially appoint
ed temples.
1t is not believed that the govern
ment will accede to the request al
though the petitioners do not desire
the state subsidies to which all Off
cially recognized creeds are entitled
by law. The government Is of the
opinion that there are enough creeds
already in existence to satisfy the
people.

AMERICAN BANKS NEEDED.
Demanded by American Interests in
South America,

oOuth AtucTlCh,
The crying need of American in
terests in South America is the es-
tablishment of American banks, ac-
cording to Prof. Paul 8. Reinsch, of
the University of Wisconsin, whe re-
Gently returned from the Pan-Ameri-
can conference at Buenos Ayres, Ar
gentine.
I'VE have the business" said Prof.
Deinsch, "and now we need banks to
accommodate American firms doing
business in South America. The
banking methods prevailing in South
American cities are extremely slow
and antiquated. They would quickly
be forced aside should an American
bank enter into competition with
them.
"At present, the only method of ex-
change Is through London or other
European financial centers, a most
roundabout and inconvenient system
for American shippers. The banking
business In South America Is practi-
cally entirely in the hands Of foreign
ers. In Buenos Ayres, for example,
outside Of the National Bank Of Ar
gentine, all the other banks are own
ed by Europeans. There are several
British banks, an italian bank, Ger
man banks, French banks, and SO on
Prof. Reinsch's views are shared
by Secretary of the Treasury Mac.
Veagh, who in his annual report sub
mitted to congress, urges Legislation
which will permit national banks ir
the United States to establish branch
es in foreign lands. This attitude Il
endorsed by officials of the state de.

diction deliberately. He said in an
interview. discussing tonight's cele-

ord as having fixed that date for the
discovery Of the south pole I may
be q few days out Of the way. but It
win be about that date that Captain
