BETWEEN OURSELVES
BY n. q.

The big affair" is over. every
body has had a good time and every
one should thank the Riverview
Park Co. and Mr.. Milford Sterns,
for the treat Write him letter,
The big event came of in the
evening when the "Trip thru the
clouds" was running. Nearly every
body wanted 10 get a ride on II and
every editor around was taken care
of.
We are now organizing the shows
which will allow junior editors TO
enter by showing their cards at the
door AS soon as We are able to,
We shall let you know which shows
in your neighborhood will allow you
10 enter.
II you have arranged for any
shows yourself, please tell the
school editor about 1t and the show
will be announced in these columns.
The new members of the editorial
stan are Emil Natzke. chief editor
for the Eastern high school. and
Franklin Gaines, from the Mumford
school.
An adult class will be opened at
the Everett school TO be drawn dur
ing the day instead of in the eve
ming as other adult classes are.
This class is TO take care OF the
large number OF foreigners in the
neighborhood who have wanted TO
enroll in an evening school but who
have been denied this opportunity
because of the fact that they work
in the evening.
Although Or. Chadsey, superinten-
dent OF schools, really opposes any
move which will bring adult stu
dents in contact with school chill
dren, he however believes that
much good can come from such a
move in this case.
Principal Frank y. Steele, OF the
Everett school. was the first one TO
suggest the opening OF a class for
adults at the Everett school. as he
has received a great many calls for
such a class from people living in
the vicinity of the school.
The class Is being started as an
experiment more than anything else
and should IL prove TO be success.
several others may be started in
various quarters OF the city where
they are needed at the present time
Many large employers OF labor
have been favoring such a move for
long time. as they have been do
ing a great deal TO help popularize
evening schools and have been urg
ing their empioye. who work dur
ing the day, to attend the evening
schools, and "a a direct result OF
their campaigns the attendance has
been increased more than % per
cent over last year.
But the employers could do moth
Ing for their employees who were
willing to go TO school but who were
hindered from doing so by working
during the evening. The employers
could only favor opening day classes
for adults and campaign quietly for
them. and now their work IL begin

al least one day class for adults
and more should this one prove a
success.

Embroideries for women's under
garments--the sorts that are sold by
the yard-have grown more and more
sheer until now one must look twice
to discover whether some of them are
of silk chiffon or of swiss. Zine
weaves in voile have proven to be prac.
tical as background for dainty en-
broidery patterns to be used in under
wear because their wearing qualities
are equal to those of the materials
used in the body of the garments. In
fact a good quality of sheer cotton
voile embroidery will outwear the
nainsook or muslin which 1t trims.
Speaking of sheer materials in un-
dergarments, 1t is not to be over
looked that chiffon and fine crepes
come in for much consideration in the
more expensive and less practical
frivolities that are so cnticingly pret-

The short baby waist is merely al.

A BIT OF HISTORY.
The revenue system by which the
United States became partner in the
liquor business originated during the
Civil war. In order to prosecute the
war to free four million slaves the
congress OF the United States passed
a bill putting a high tax on liquor.
When the bill had passed both
houses, Salmon p Chase, secretary OF
the treasury, brought 1t to President
Lincoln for his signature. Chase"
said Mr.. Lincoln, Il would rather have
my right arm taken OFF than to sign
that bill, but reckon I'll have to do
1t. You say It is necessary to carry
on this war to free those human
slaves. We have got to do 1t. But
tell me. Chase. will you promise, and
will congress promise. to repeal this
bill as soon as the war is over?'
Chase promised.
But at the close OF the war and
before the promise could be redeemed,
President Lincoln was assassinated
and the promise forgotten. Doubtless
had Lincoln lived the country would
not today be under the domination Of
the legalized liquor traffic.
