Marin County Promotion
League Seeks Advertising
Money in Novel Way

Arrangements have been made for
the production of a series of Shakes
pearean plays to be presented in Sum-
nit park at Fairfax Manor, Marin
county. Unless unforeseen circum-
stances arise. the first show will be
enacted some time about the middle
of next month.
The entertainments will be given
under the auspices Of the Marin
County Promotion league, which body
will employ the receipts in advertis-
ing the county. This money will be
used to carry out certain ideas which
were to be enacted with money re-
quested of the board of supervisors,
who recently refused to make the ap-
preparation.
OF the many beautiful spots OF
Marin county which command attrac-
tive views and are themselves pleas
ing there is no doubt that Summit
park Is one of the most inspiring.
From this point, which is the hill
terminal of the Funicular railroad,
the most superb view of Mount Tam

gained Staged among the oaks and
madrones, with stage effects carried
out to harmonic with the natural
"out of doors" surroundings, this park
presents a most ideal location for the

UGLY MEMS CLUB HAD
ONE REAL LALLAPALO LOOSA

A century and a half ago Liverpool,
Eng, boasted an ugly club" whose
motto was "Tetrum ante imnia vol
tum"-an ugly face before all things.
The club minute book covers a period
of II years. A member had to be
bachelor with Something odd, re-
markable. droll. or out of the way in
his phiz; as in the length breadth or
narrowness thereof, or In the COM
plexion, cast of his eyes. or make of
his mouth, lips, chin, etc--of which
the majority of the society are to
judge. the president to have casting
vote" Fines seem to have been the
chief source of the clubs revenue,
which was spent in food and drink at
the Exchange coffee house. where they
met.
On his admittance to the ugly
club short descriptive sketch of the
new member was entered in the min
ute book, and among them we find
another claimant of the title of the
ugliest man on earth in Joseph Far
mer. merchant whose description
reads as follows: Little eyes, one
bigger than ye other; long nose; thin
lantern jaws; large upper lip; mouth
from ear to ear, resembling sharks;
a rotten set of irregular teeth which
are set off at great advantage by fire.

narrow; his looks upon the whole

f1cation to render him the phoenix of

again this 1000 years."

The new Insurance building in
California street near Sansome
Another New Home
At WinShiD Park

I The fifth residence to be built this
season in Winship Park. Ross ex-
elusive residence subdivision, Is near
ing completion, and the owner ex-
poets to move in by the end of this
month. The new dwelling is on a
hill side lot and commands a view of
all Ross Valley. and Mount Tamal-
pals.
Like all the other new homes in
Winshtp Park, this latest addition to
the colony is modern in every re-
spect, and is in keeping with the ar
tistic architecture that marks the
valley. The nearing completion of
the Stockton street tunnel means
much to Winship Park, as 1t does to
all other Marin county residence
tracts. The new ferry system to be
installed with the completion Of the
tunnel will materially cut down the
time between Sausalito and San Fran
cisco. and when this has been done,
property values in Marin county will
increase. Winship Park will have
full benefits of this good fortune.

ENGLAND TO ABOLISH
TRIPLE HOLIDAY CUSTOM

The subject of holidays among the
working classes in England is being
discussed in that country with much
interest. There has been a steady
growth in the number of occasions
when a cessation of work has become
customary. Where only one day was
formerly taken, now the day before
the usual holiday and the day after
are sometimes expected.
The subject has at last been called
to the attention of the northern ad-
visory trades committee, @and 1t pro-
poses to consider it further and try
to reduce the number of holidays and
bring order out of the existing chaos.
There are now 26 days in year
recognized as legitimate occasions for
holidays in most cities in England
They are as follows: Christmas day,
the following day, known as boxing
day, and often the next day also;
New Years day and the day after;
Easter, beginning on Good Friday
and including the Monday following
Easter Sunday; Whitsuntide, two
days; race week, six days; a week
known as Wakes week; August bank
holiday, and three or four days for
the Elswick trips, a holiday claimed
by many workingmen outside the Els
wick works.
All these holidays are not universal
over England. Instead of those
omitted many places have local holi-
days. as the fair week in Hull and
the Goose Fair week in Nottingham.
The effort being made is to lessen
the number of holidays and bring
those retained into more systematic
order.

UNIVERSITY
To HAVE WATER
SUPPLY
Residents Band Together for
Purpose of Accomplishing
Needed Improvement

The meetings of the University
Heights Improvement club and the
South of viaduct Improvement club
held at their respective shaHs last
Wednesday night were probably the
best meetings that these two organ
izations have ever held during their
existence.
The University Mound and neigh
boring properties have always been
handicapped and isolated because they
have been without water for fire pro-
lection and domestic use. The hun
dreds of families now living in that
section have been obliged to carry
water or dig wells in order to supply
themselves, and it has been a very
great setback. The two Improvement
clubs recently have added large num-
bers TO their membership, and for
the last year they have devoted their
entire attention to the water prob
lem. Careful arrangements, plans
and specifications have been obtained
from the city engineers office and
they have enlisted the aid Of the
board Of supervisors and the utilities
committee during the last two months.
At s o'clock last night meeting of
the University Mound Heights I'm
provement club was held for the pur-
pose of considering a proposition to
be made through that club by w. H.
Early, an attorney at law and man
ager for the Brown Estate company.
owners of about IL blocks Of land
at University Mound. Early ad-
dressed the meeting at length and
presented contract wherein he
agreed to purchase $4,000 worth Of
Hetch Hetchy 415 per cent bonds
within Is days, provided that the
property owners and the members OF
the club would contribute certain
small sums in order to meet part or
the expenses. The plan that Early
presented to the club showed that
with $1,000 added to the $4,000 al
ready on hand it would give COM
plete and adequate water supply for
all of the neighborhood
The members voted unanimously to
accept the proposition, and during the
evening the sum of 81, 600 was pledged
to the enterprise.
At the meeting of the South of Via
duct Improvement club at 9 o'clock
Mr.. Early also presented his propo-
sition to the members OF that club,
and the members unanimously voted
to cooperate with him and assist in
accomplishing the plan.
The project will include the dig
ging Of an additional well at the Reis
tract reservoir, installing pumps,
tanks and the Anecessary piping Of IL
inch and eight~inch hx mains from the
reservoir along Dartmouth street,

cluding some OF Americas finest Aire-

Is neglected, especially in the winter
time, when the weather is bad and
the owner is not overjoyed at the task
of exercising his dog. This applies
mainly to dogs that are kept indoors
and which from that particular fact
are more in need of outdoor exercise
than other dogs.
Outdoor exercise is one of the best
methods of preventing lung troubles.

dogs, especially those which are get

WHAT THE KENNELS DO
Perhaps from time to time you have
noticed that the number of kennels
and fanciers has greatly increased.
Do you realize what the kennels do?
The kennels are showing to the
public the really good points of the
dog. By supporting and helping dog
shows they are placing a higher value
on dogs. 1t was only short time ago
when one might kill his neighbor's
dog or cat and expect no trouble. To-
day the penal code insures fine or

GUN SHY DOGS OR BRAIN SHY

ID.
Keeper.)
Right off the reer' or right at the
start, let me make an assertion. No
dog, setter, pointer, foxhound or
beagle was ever born gun shy. There
are plenty pups born that are ex-
tremely sensitive and nervous. more
particularly those bred by intelligent,
thinking breeders, who have been
breeding for intelligent hunters. by
breeding from only the best of hunt
ing blood These very sensitive,
nervous pups are invariably the brain
lest, most intelligent dogs. and al
ways make the best and most intelli-
gent flelders, and this nerve makes
them the most enduring and tireless-
BOYS RUIN DOGS
The trouble comes to the breeder
and producer Of the really promising
pups when he sells them, by letter,
broadcast over the United States. So
many land in the hands of boys with
little sense and no experience, and a
goodly number in the hands of men
who do not understand dogs and ap-
pear to have less sense than some Of
the boys, and they (the owners) SIM
ply ruin their dogs by the rankest
kind of ignorance, or carelessness, IN
handling them.
Don't expect dog, old or young. to
jump out of his crate on reaching
you. with head and tail up. after his
first trip In a box over a railroad,
handled by heartless express en-
ployes. Don't have him show what
he can do, or handle him unneces-
sarily. Give him comfortable quar-
ters and let him rest. Don't shoot
a gun over him an hour after you
get him, lust to see If he is gun shy"

to see and nose the game. He then
learns to connect this great noise
(the sound of the discharge) with
dead game and also connects you
with taking part in its capture, and
he learns to love the sound of the
gun, and comes to you, instead of
being frightened and running home
