The state board of regents met at
the college Friday and Saturday. They
decided to take 1000 pounds of the
5000 pounds of alfalfa seed brought
back by Prof. Hansen and distribute
it among the counties of the state,
and the remainder will be used as the
board sees fit. 1t was decided to es-
tablish an agricultural course at the
Aberdeen normal, somewhat similar
to the school of agriculture at the
college. This action of the board is
not at all pleasing to Bookings, as 1t
may be the entering wedge that Aber-
deem has been after to eventually make
their institution a college of the same
standing as the State College.

On Saturday the local post Office re
ceived word to put on a third carrier
and Harry Wornson is again on the
Job. However, the notice from the de-
partment said that the third man
would be put on only until March LIST
so we suppose the carrier patrons will
have to grid their loins for a big scrap
with Washington about that time. A
good petition signed by the patrons OF
the office and sent to Washington be
fore that time would undoubtedly
cause the department to retain the
third carrier permanently.

Lavender and Old Lace" a drama
tization of the Myrtle Reed Story, Is
announced for the Grand next Satur-
day. The converting of the novel into
the play is the work of David G..
Fischer, who is said to have preserved
it's wholesome charm and refinement.
It is in four acts. The production is
by the United Play Co. (Inc.) and Is
the newest venture of this seasons
successful organization.
County Treasurer Gullick informs us
that he has issued 124 auto licenses so
far this year. Many owners no doubt
will not take out their licenses until
they commence to use their cars in
the spring, and it is expected that over
400 numbers will be taken during the
year. The numbers are in white upon
a sickly looking background of red,
and we do not wonder that they failed
to suit the aesthetic taste of Brother
Horton of Volga.
One of the most delightful charac-
tiers in an American story is that OF
Mary Ainslee in Lavender and Old
Lace" In the dramatization of this
delightful bit of fiction the part of
Mary Ainslee will be played by Miss
Padden, a young actress who has
achieved success in many plays. The
ethereal charm of the little lavender
lady is said to be pictured with much
grace and naturalness by Miss Padden.
Lavender and Old Lace" will be pre-
sented at the opera house next Satur.
day evening. under the direction OF
the United Play Co. (Inc.)

SAN LUIS OBIsPO, CAL.
 REMAINS A "WET" CENTER

San Luis Obispo, Cal Jan. 8-Un- der a ballot decision offering an in- teresting commentary on woman's suffrage iu one California city, San Luis OblSpo recently began it's l45d consecutive year as wet center.
 Two years ago, after a desperate fight, tho "wets" carried the city by a narrow majority of S6 votes. Since that election, women !n California have been enfranchised and the pro hibition element approached the polls at the December election, confident that women voters would put an eui to the "wnt" ascenden- cy that dated from the Spanish days of California. The count of the votes, however, proved a surprise for both ts ctions. Not even the most sanguine liquor supporters expected tho overwhelming defeat of the "dry" forces, which was accom- plished w.la a margin of 400 votes.

Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 9-lnsanity experts in many sections of the Unit ed States are watching with great interest Ohio's experiment of it's Massilon State Hospial where 300 in mates are attending school, study ing reading, arithmetic, geography music and other branches just like normal folk. Stimulation of meut- al effort in the sub-normal brain IS the object of the school. Pupils are not allowed to be uuOccupied for a moment during study hours on the theory that idleness produces mel ancholy.
 Mathematics appears the most dif- ficult study for the inmate pupils. Teaching is done by the system Of object lessons, cows, horses, dogs, cats and people are substituted, add ed and multiplied in lieu or mere figures. Mental activity produces SLrengLn, according to Dr. M. C. By man, superintendent, who declares that many cures may be almost who'll ly attributed to the insane" school work.
 When a patient shows an interest and adaptability in the work he is advanced to the more recreauonal classes which include pool, bil- lizards, bowling, tennis, and baseball and all these are a part of the reg ular curriculum. They provide health full enjoyment, excite mental inter est, arouse energy and stimulate Gc- tiVity to the physical and mental benefit of the patient.

SWITZERLAND WANTS ID BECOME
 RED CROSS CAMP OF POWERS

It is in the hopes of exacdng a
 guarantee from all of the four pow CTS surrounding her not to interrupt
 these imports Is casa of war that Switzerland is considering the pro ject of having the entire country de- clared a great international Red Cross camp, and to undertake the care oS the wounded of all nations in the event of any general Euro
 pean war. Members of the Swiss
 government who are backing the movement declare that this would
 not only insure for Switzerland the
 neutrality and all of the protection
 that is accorded by international agreement to the Red Cross camps
 in time of war, but it would also in sure that her industries would not
 be ruined by the cutting off of the coal supply and her population re- duced to starvation by rhe stopping of food imports.
 The treaty to be submitted to the powers will provide that as fast as the wounded are cured they will be returned to their respective coun- 1sries. This Switzerland ia coRyinc- ed, would be of enough importance to any of the powers engaged in rrr-oneoD vyar fN mako certain that uOue Of them would violate her neu- trality by crossing the boundary with one of its armies or interfere with her food supply.

Berne, Switzerland, Jan. S-lH the near future Switzerland will very likely present to the powers a request hat in the event of great European war all of Swttzer- land be constituted into a Red Cross camp for the care of the woun ed of all the nations involved. This Switzerland is now convinced, is the only way that not only her neutral itv but her very existauce could be preserved
 Although the neutrality of Swift zerland Is guaranteed by the leading powers, the Swiss government has recently b come convinced that un- less she has some actual way of in- sisting on the respecting of this neu- traIity. that in a war between any Of the four great powers surroundln her this guarantee would would a mount to very little. In addition she is also convined that the first step in any European war would be the prohibition by all the powers involved Of the exports of coal and provisions which they would need for their own armies. AS Switzer- land is entirely dependent on the sur rounding powers not only for her coal, but for her grain and pracuc- ally all her food supply, the cutting off of these imports would reduce the entire country to starvation within a few weeks.
