She has occupied cell in most
of the jails in the Pacific North

Nell is a husky woman. On
several occasions "Harry Allen"

been known the greater part of
the time, has exhibited a decided

By The WAY

Here's little bit of dialogue
that may interest you:
THAT indecent picture must be
removed"
THAT picture is not indecent"
''It isl"
cts mott"
"Well, it's got to be removed"
well. It's not got to be re-
moved"
and so on for a couple of
more paragraphs.
The picture that caused this
commotio nwas an oil painting of
the pink back of a slim girl done
by Miss Margaret Taylor and
hung In the auditorium of the
Friday Morning club at Los An
geles for exhibition to $50 wom-
en-.
The objection to the painting
being hung was raised by men,
bers Of the New York State So
ciety and the result was that the
old, threadbare controversy over
the nude in art was again opened
for discussion and the vim and
gusto with which It was entered
into would undoubtedly have led
to a riot, had not the canvas of
the undraped lady been turned to
the wall In the Office Of the club.

ly to visit them, indicates that at
last the public schools are about to
receive the attention due them and
from the right element, too. Other
business men and especially the
parents of school children. should
follow this example. Every parent
should become acquainted with the
teacher of his child. Too many
parents are satisfied with the re-
port of the new teacher" which
is usually given by their offspring

largely exaggerated. Parents and
friends, you are welcome at any of
our public schools. Come as a
grouchy critic if you must, but be
sure and visit the boys and girls in
school. They need your presence to
encourage them, so please meet
them half way, see their little
hearts beat like trip-hammer and
their little eyes sparkle, when they
behold mama or papa paying a
visit to school.
