PRETTY SCHOOL HOUSES.
How to Bcnutify Rural Grounds Taught
at Puyallup Session.

How to Benutify Rural Grounds Taught
at Puyallup Session.
The typical rural school house is
desolate, bare and ugly. Recall the
school houses you have seen and real
ize to what an extent this is true.
Yet the place where children, at the
most impressionable age of their lives,
spend so much Of their time should be
a place of beauty. The members of
the class in school grounds and gar
dens at the Puyallup summer session
of the State College are getting the
training which will enable them to
change desolation and ugliness to life
and beauty.
Lawns, flowers, window box gardens,
shrubs and trees are all given careful
attention. The principles of design as
applied to landscape art are studied
Plans for the landscaping Of the Puy'
allup high school grounds were drawn
and discussed as class exercise.
Each member OF the class Is now
working on landscape plan for his
own school grounds. These plans are
discussed in class, and criticised by
the instructor. They are drawn to
scale and colored. The trees. shrubs.
lawns, ETC., are indicated. Full in.
struction is given as to what to plant,
and how to plant it. The student ID
able to take home a complete set Of
landscaping plans and knowledge OF
how to apply them.
West of the Cascade mountains, es.
pecially, where green shrubbery may be
had in such profusion the year around,
the bare, ugly and lonely school house
should become bower of loneliness,
"a thing of beauty and q Joy forever"

BOARDERS IN THE HERD


The joke on the city boarder on the
farm is one of the original 10, but the
trick is turned and the joke is on the
farmer when he gets boarder in his
dairy herd. Six boarders in a herd OF
IS! That was the discovery of one
farmer when he had his cows tested
and he had been feeding those six
cows at loss for three years!
Teachers at the Puyallup summer
session of the State College are learn
ing to spot the boarders in the dairy
herd. After only four weeks of in
struction, the class in dairying made
a remarkable showing at its first stock
judging contest. Five cows from the
Western Washington experiment sta
ton were led out before the class of 20
students. The students were asked to
pick out the first, second and third
best butter cows, and without any as
sistance, they made their selections.
Bonney, the best butter cow of the lot
by the experiment station records, had
been given first place by 20 of the %
students. Three gave her second.
The record of this class of % is an
indication of what might be done in
the development of the dairy industry
in the state by the right kind of in
struction in the schools. Incidentally,
it might be said that the dairy in
struction at the Puyallup summer
school is done by Fl. l.. Blanchard Of
the Western Washington experiment
station, one of the best dairy and poul
try men in the state.
The teachers who form large part
of the class will make use of their
training in their own schools.

WHEN BEING PHOTOGRAPHED.
Follow This Advice and Your Portrait
Will Be Fine.


Will Be Fine.
If you want to look your best when
you have your photograph taken these
hints may be Of use:
Don't wear dress which Is very
fussy or fashionable. The trimmings,
which look so pretty In real life, won't
show up in a photograph, while any.
thing very fashionable quickly goes
out of date and make the picture seem
ridiculous. The best things to choose
are:
For an outdoor girl. plain shirt
and skirt which matches it in color.
For a more artistic girl, chiffon
scarf draped softly round the shoulders
For a child, plain white frock with
white shoes and stockings.
Never be photographed in a hat. veil
or glasses. Don't do your hair in a
great many elaborate puffs and waves
or it will come out looking as stiff as
q wig.
Don't try to hold the pose too long
vi yOu Will get ii uAcus uuudtuIdA GA
preston. Let the photographer put
you in the place where he wishes you
to sit or stand. but don't try to keep
your face still before he says "Now"
II you feel uncomfortable in the
place where he has put you say SO and
ask leave to move. il you are taken
when you feel at all uneasy the pic
ture can never be a success.
AS rule. the subject Of a photo
graph looks better in a low necked
blouse than in high necked one. for
the line around the throat made by
a high. tight collar Is not at all ar
tistic.
Don't take any one else's opinion on
the choice Of photograph. When the
proofs come home one person will pre-
fer this and another that. Let them
say what they like, but take no notice
unless You happen to agree with them
You know best how you want to look,
and picture chosen by yourself viii
have individuality. which is better
than all the prettiness in the world

Press Comment
Must Break Currency Control.
(Colville EXaminer.)

nuSt break currency SDhtrOl.
(Colville EXaminer)
So long as Eastern banks can hoard
and control our money in the shape of
the gold and silver of the country, just
so long can panics be brought on at
will by those who have the controlling
power But the moment the currency
system is so changed as to allow as
sets to be converted into circulating
mediums, then no one power can cause
shortage of money or bring on a
panic. And this is the task for the
present administration---to protect the
public in it's legitimate business en-
terprises by making it impossible for
large depositaries to control all the
circulating medium.

public service commission. 1t is given
out by the papers that Jim is Re-
publican, which may or may not be
true. Jim Brown was the son of Beriah
Brown of Seattle, an old time Demo-
crat that voted the ticket of Jefferson
during the war time. About the only
excuse for Jim being called a RepuL-
lican is the fact that he has worked on
ton for lieutenant governor last fall.
the fact that he imagined that he was
running for the Republican nomina-

We predict as clerk of the pub

that he is called a Republican by some
of his enemies, Governor Lister made
no mistake in appointing him.

The voting machine humbug which

How Would You Like Its
yakima Republic)
Thirty or 40 years ago this morning
right away after the old COW was milk
ed, a freckie-faced kid started for the
grove up the creek to help out on the
old fashioned celebration which was
going on there. 1t was too hot to wear
a coat. One of his suspenders was
gone. So was most of his straw hat
He was barefooted, which was provi

why Il Mead MemOrials
(Kent Journal.)

1t is proposed now to erect monu-
ment to Ex-Governor Mead, at his home
in Bellingham. The money is to be
raised by private subscription. A COM
mittee headed by Governor Lister has
been selected and contributions are
asked for. We knew Governor Mead
well, considered him a personal friend
and would be the last person in the
world to detract from any honor to be
shown him. Still we fail to see where
his services to the state were so strik-
ing as to call for such monument.
Isn't it hard enough for the average
man to pay his bills these days without
being asked to help out such unneces-
sary efforts as this?

President Wilson knew what he was
