SCHOOLS
GOOD IDEAS FROM MANUAL
TRAINING AND DOMESTIC
SCIENCE DEPARTMENT..

While in Spokane attending the
meeting of the Inland Empire Teach
ers' association Principal ketcham of
the high school took advantage of the
opportunity of visiting the manual
training and domestic science DEPART
ments of the Spokane high school
with the view of gaining suggestions
for the remodeling of those depart
ments in the local school.
The Lewis and Clark high school of
Spokane, which cost a half million
dollars to build and furnish. is espe-
cially wei equipped for these practical
courses. Mr.. ketcham learned a good
many small things of a technical ma
ture which will be incorporated into
the plans for Improvements here.
Manual Training.
Both departments of the local school
are now quartered in the basement of
the high school building, but under the
new arrangements Zach will have
plenty of room. The front half of the
garage across from the high school.
which is now used for the high school
gymnasium, will be fitted for manual
training, Plans for the arrangement
of the room have been completed by
Nelters V. Logan, director Of the de-
partment. They show a division of the
big room, which measures 81 by So
feet, into fou smaller ones. The
largest of these will be filled with
work benches, glue tables and the
other apparatus used by first-year
students. Two smaller rooms will be
the machine and forge rooms, and the
fourth will be used for mechanical
drafting.
Domestic Science.
The girls in the domestic science de-
partment will find themselves cooking
and doing fancy work in the garnet
on the fourth floor where three rooms
on the north enc will be fitted for
them.
Estimates for the Improvement and
maintenance of these departments and
for others proposed are being prepared

SULzER IS STILL
FULL OF FIGHT
FIRST STATEMENT MADE BY Ac-
cuSED OFFICIAL SINCE
TRIAL BEGAN.
FRIENDS SAY HE WILL TESTIFY
BEFORE COURT.
Says He Has No Idea of Resienins
and That He ls Perfectly Well
in Spite Of Contrary
Report.

Albany, N. Y.--Gov. Sulzer Saturday
broke his long silence. which he has
maintained since his impeachment
trial began, and declared he had no
intention Of resigning and would fight
the battle to the end
Resign" he calculated. Il have no
more idea of doing that than ! have
of committing hara-kari."
And then the governor thumped his
interviewer on the chest and gave
other evidences OF the fact that he is
in fighting mood.
Also the governor is not in such i'll
health as has been rumored. The
fact that he had not seen any one
within the last two days led to the
report that he was in a weakened con-
dition. He is sleeping late mornings,
but he also is working late at night.
"Well?" said the governor. Yes, IN
deed. l an"
The governors formal statement
that he would not resign was not is-
sued until after he had argued at
great length with his counsel.
Throughout the case they have been
opposed to his saying anything for
publication. But he has overruled
them few times, though not since
the trial began.
Counsel for Gov. Sulzer refused to
discuss whether he would take the
witness stand. but it is said by close
friends that he has no other thought.
He feels. they say. that he has story
to tell that the people should hear and
he is going TO tell it.

NAMED AS MINISTER TO BALKANS

Destiny has played a pretty prank
for Charles ]. Vopicka of Chicago.

Balkan states-Servia, Roumania and
Bulgaria.
Mr.. Vopicka was born in Bohemia
in 1857. To him, as to many young
men OF that time, the United States
seemed the land of promise. Stories
of streets lined with gold" were
heard abroad so young Vopicka, with
a small store of experience to en-
able him to battle with the world,
and unhampered by funds, sailed
away from the land of his birth
Now he will return, honored by
his adopted country as its diplomatic
envoy.
His appointment came at the end
of a bitter fight waged upon him by
anti-liquor interests.

That is very wholesome tendency
which is manifesting itself in a good
many sections just now toward more
complete consolidation of rural schools.
In two townships not far from where

towns near the center, a vote of the
residents of the township has lately

in these towns. The plan outlined
has In view the enlarging Of the
school buildings, increasing the school
equipment and making 1t more effec-

The money heretofore paid to teachers
in sparsely settled subdistricts having
but handful of pupils will be used in
helping provide the things needed for
the central school plant and in paying
for the hauling of the children to and
from the school, This consolidation
plan has practically every argument
in its favor and practically none
against 1t. The school patrons In
