How Mirrors Will Make a Room Seem
Larger.

In the May Woman's Home Compan-
ION a contributor writes an article en-
titled "The Right Mirror in the Right
Place" The following extract from the
article tells how mirrors rightly placed
add to the attractiveness of a room and
also make room seem larger:
"If room is small, well-placed
mirror will reflect part of another
room aud seem TO give much more space.
In medium-sized apartment in New
York there is a beautiful old Colonial
mirror hung between two windows so
that il reflects part of two rooms with
a window at the end of the vista, and it
gives a feeling of much more space than
is really there. In another apartment
exactly like it, just beneath it, where
there is no such arrangement of mirrors,
you feel cramped in comparison"

There is little danger in the bite of

The Wizards Roundup.

The Wizards Roundup, the great
outdoor exposition of Western sports
and pastimes to be held at Salt Lake
City in connection with the Wizard
Carnival, Aug. 1929, gives promise
of becoming the premier event of its
class in this country. Situated in the
center of the region from which talent
and material must be drawn for these
shows, and offering as they have the
most valuable list of prizes in cash
and trophies ever given before, it is
now evident to the Wizards Wards
that Salt Lake City is destined to
take the lead in these events, and
they have accordingly decided to make
the Wizards Roundup an annual af-
fair.

HAINES SILENT
ON PROHIBITION
Denies. However, That All Idaho
Parties Are Pledged to Dry State

(From the Spokesman Review
Governor John M. Haines, Republi-
can candidate to succeed himself as
governor OF Idaho, arrived in Spo-
kane yesterday morning from Sand
point en- route to Whitney and Sho-
shone counties to consult with friends
relative to his candidacy. In COM
menting on the political situation in
Idaho and in answer to a question as
to the status Of the prohibition ques-
ton in that state, Governor Haines
said:
at is not true that all three parties
in Idaho at their state conventions in
serted planks in their platforms in
dorsing statewide prohibition. That
impression seems to have become gen.
eral, but is slightly erroneous. Only
the Progressive party positively in
dorsed prohibition, the other two par
ties merely pledging themselves to
submit to the voters at the next gen
eral election constitutional amend
ment providing for statewide prohi-
bition. In other words, the Republi-
cans and Democrats pledged them
selves to give the voters chance to
decide the matter"
When asked where he stood on the
prohibition question the governor sta
ted he didn't care to be interviewed
on that point; that his party's plat
form, as announced, was his platform,
and, regardless of personal opinions,
he would abide by that platform and
carry it out to the letter.

If you wanted to attract the attention of the crowd
with big drum you wouldn't hit it once-bu again and

even if he does not speak of it. I
don't want to be obliged to knock any
man down for making slurring re-
marks about you, little sister," and
Dick, with an unwonted burst of af-
lection, patted Mollie's shoulder.
Sex, sex, sex-I am so tired of
the word" Mollie almost shouted.
do you mean to tell me there is
sex in ability, in energy, in courage,
in endurance, in reasoning power; in
short, in brains?"
Perhaps not, my dear child, al
though when l have more time l
may discuss that matter with you,
but when you have recited all these
wonderful neutral attributes you
must add to them others in which sex
is always apparent. Temperament is
not neutral neither is intuition, nor
sympathy, nor loyalty, nor self-sacri-
flee.
1.-The mere fact that men and wom-
en- dress differently surrounds them
with an atmosphere of sex. want
to tell you one thing, little sister,
right here: No man gets so old, so
muchly married or so selfish that the
sight of pretty girl does not quicken
his cooling blood-for a moment or
two at least"
Mercy, Dick! Is it so bad as
that?" exclaimed. 'The Turks are
right to cover the faces of their wom-
en-, not only to protect the sanctity of
the harem, but protect man from his
own weakness. If your theories are
right, my dear, every husband should
be stricken blind on his wedding
day."
What are you going to do about
it?" interrupted Mollie.' Women are
going to work with men more and
more. Today there is hardly a sue
cessful business that does not employ
women in some capacity. Are there
