Other parents OF boys and girls may
wen take their cue from the offer of
$50 10 the swim
Safety for Boys ming pool fund
And Girls made by Frank
Neagle. This move
ment is one which will appeal with
particular force TO parents Of boys
and girls of the age to be benefited.
II means much to children TO have
clean. safe and wholesome sport such
as will be provided when we get that
natatorium. Every parent knows this
and there is nothing the children of
Pendleton need more than they do a
good swimming pool. They should
not have TO swim in the river which
is not suited TO the purpose and is
not clean. The needed money for the
natatorium should now be easy to OBJ
tain. The council has agreed to stand
its share and the Roundup board will
do likewise. 1t only remains for the
$4,000 to be raised by public subscrip-
ton. In raising this fund the COM
mittee should not have to rely en-
tirely on local businessmen who gen.
orally bear the brunt Of such ex-
penses. Most Of the money should be
gladly provided by those who have
children who will make use Of the
swimming pool.
What parent will refuse to help a
move that means both pleasure and
safety for the boys and girls Of the
town?

Written BY A Single Woman,
Probably.

Man in his arrogance rises up ever
and anon to harrangue on the
vanity and foolishuess Of woman's
dress. Well, let him. Who cares,
ANYWAY? asks a writer in one OF our
exchanges. Certainly not the
woman, for she goes on her way
serene and smiling, knowing in the
depths of her wiley little heart that
it is the very coceits he condems that
take his eye and ensnare his fancy.
Woman without her frills and furbe-
lows would be a sorry sight indeed,
and man, the sinner, would be the
first to tell her 50 Mans dress, |
must admit, is in general very SEN
sible, but there is one thing about it
that for uselessness discounts any
thing that women ever wore or
thought of | am referring to that
little flap that is placed just below
the bosom of the shirt and which is
supplied with button.hole, but for
what reason nobody has ever been
able to discover. 1t seems to me
that to be consistent man should
remove that flap before he makes
any criticism on the apparel of his
