A JUST COMPLAINT

The citizens of Pullman are being
constantly urged to clean up and
beautify their property, thereby add
ing greatly to the attractiveness of
the city. 1t is indeed unfortunate
that the city does not realize that iC
is undoing all it's work when it fails
to protect it's citizens from the depre-
dations of proving sneak thieves
who steal or destroy everything that
is not securely locked and barred.
The people of Pullman have been
justly proud of their little city,
boasting of its unusual educational
advantages and it's excellent morals.
Its schools are improving constantly,
but not so its morals, for the time
will soon come when people will go
elsewhere to educate their families
rather than bring their children to
a place where people can not grow
flowers or vegetables without having
them stolen or destroyed, and where
they dare not leave chicken COOP or
cellar unlocked.
1t is not at all likely that all of
the mischief is done by any one class
OF people, either the small boys or
the students of the high school or
OF the college. But it is a certain
fact that children of all ages regu-
larry roam the streets until near mid
night, and have been heard planning
raids on gardens, and 1t is also true
that boys of high school age boast,
in quiet way, of the feeds" they
have stolen from kitchen porches and
of the stolen fowls they have roasted
over bonfires at night. Theft of
canned fruit is becoming alarmingly
prevalent, and it seems that the
time has come when the city should

college auditorium. The time has
been changed because the date form
erly held conflicted with the Junior
Prom on Saturday evening.
Thomas Elmore Lucey, poet, actor,
and song humorist, is the last attrac-
ton. Lucey is more than a humor-
list, he is reader, singer, imperson-
ator, crayon artist, and actor. Per-
haps his best sketch is entitled "A
Night in a Poets Workshop" Sew
eral of the characters which he i'm
personates with rapid change, are
Poe, Twain, Riley, Nye, Pope, and
Leo.
Throughout the program his wit
and humor are interspersed with tre
M ore serious thoughts, making a de-
lightful combination.
Judging from the press reports,
the entertainment will be one of the
best so far this year and no one can
afford to miss this opportunity to
hear Lucey. The student assembly
tickets will admit on presentation.

MILITARY

Lieutenant G. r. Bennett recently
made visit to Walla Walla to look
that place ever as possible location
for this years encam pment. He was
favorably impressed with the pros
pective camping ground on the site
OF the abandoned fort, and in his re-
port to the Board of Regents he
recommended Walla Walla as an
ideal place for the annual encamp-
ment. No authentic statement re-
garding this years encampment has
as yet been made, but it is expected
that in a few days President Bryan
will announce the place where this
years encampment will be held.

take the matter in hand.
If parents can not or will not take
proper care of their minor children,
let us have the "curfew" of the
olden time, and thus see to it that
children are off of the streets at
night. The older offenders could
probably be handled by adding to our
police force.
Some people, having very lax
ideals of morality, think lightly of
such offenses as have been here men-
toned, but every sensible person
knows that the ember of the gang
of petty thieves is preparing himself
for membership, in later life, with
one of the black hand" gangs that
terrorize some of our larger cities.
