WILL BOOST FOR ROAD

A committee from the Chamber of
Commerce, composed of f. C. For
rest, A. E. Archer and l.. V. Ed
wards, will attend the next meeting
of the city council in the interests of
the proposed new road leading north
from the Duthie building on Grand
street. The present road crosses the
n. P. tracks near the Duthie build
ing, and recrosses about a quarter
of a mile farther on. 1t is proposed
to run the road down the west side
of the track the entire distance, thus
making it much safer and assuring
just as easy a grade. The railroad
company is willing to do the grading
necessary to the completion of the
new road if the council will do the
rest of the work.

On Thursday, July Is, in the city
park, will be held a union picnic for
all the Sunday schools of Pullman,
Johnson, Albion and other points,
as well as for all the people of the
country around.
We should like to see all the old
pioneers and all the people come to-

to enjoy a good social time. Com
mittees have been appointed and all
arrangements are being made. The
plan and program will be as follows.
All schools are asked to come in
a body and to meet on Grand street
above the Artesian hotel, where the
parade will begin. Each school is to
provide for large carryalls or any
conyeyances they may wish and all
the town schools are to get In the

best showing. Uniqueness and orig

age, and will include dances, games
and storytelling. In the early af-
ternoon special instruction viii be
given for the older girls in folk
dancing and dramatic work, and
after four o'clock the play ground
will be given over to games and ath-
letic contests for boys.
Every two weeks during the sum-
mer free public exhibition will be
given, to give the parents an oppor-
tunity to witness the work that is
being done.
The efficiency of Miss Kaye as
playground instructor was evidenced
by the children's play which was
given Tuesday evening at Beck S
theatre, the building being filled al
most to capacity to witness the
youngsters in their novel stunts. The
program included dances, contests
and games of different kinds, and
the children proved able enter
tanners.

MODEL BAKERY
HAS BAD BLAZE
Fire Which Originated in Bake Shop
Does $4,000 Damage TO Building
and Contents

Damages estimated at $4,000 re-
suited from a fire in the Model Bak-
cry at 1880 Wednesday morning
The fire started in the bake shop in
the rear of the building, and burned
so rapidly that within few minutes
the whole building was ablaze. The
fire department responded to the call
in record time, and its effective
work saved the adjoining buildings
from destruction. The building
was Quilted, and everything in the
back part, except the oven, which is
fire-proof, was destroyed. In the
front room the greater part of the
damage was done by the water.
II. NJ. Beck, owner of the build
ing and the contents, carried $2750
insurance on the fixtures and stock
with $500 on the building, which
will probably cover the loss. He
started business within a few hours
i'll the Henry building, which was
occupied by the automatic baseball
machine, and will probably rebuild
of brick as soon as the loss is ad-
justed.

DIR. Melander Tells How the Insects
Breed In Old Tin Cans of
Stagnant Water

Pullman is unusually favored in
being practically free of mosquitoes.
While the dangerous malaria mos
quito, so prevalent throughout tre
east, is scarcely ever noticed, now
and then during the summer a few
mosquitoes appear in town to cause
some annoyance. Where hey come
from is not clearly understood, but
the majority of people are apt to
lay the blame on the creek or the
college lake.
Mosquitoes pass through quick
life cycle, Eggs are Iaic on the
water to hatch almost Immediately
into wrigglers. These creatures feed
for a week in the stagnant water,
when they change into a second type
OF wriggler known as the pupa. A
few days afterwards the pupae float
at the surface, the skin of the back
splits open and the adult mosquito
energies, resting on the empty pupa
skin as float until its wings are
developed. Mosquitoes are poor fiji
ers. They are blown long distances
by the wind, but are unable to make
Roadway against the wind. Those
of the college lake never get to
town. They breed in shallow stag
nant water which is sheltered from
the wind. A tin can may contain
dozens of wrigglers. A large pond
on the contrary may be practically
free of them. This habit of select
ing sheltered water is due to an in
stinct for preservation, since were
the mosquitoes to emerge from the
floating pupae where waves could
upset them they would naturally
perish.
The suggestion has been made
that the college lake be oiled to sup
press the mosquitoes developing
there. This suggestion, however, is
based on the erroneous idea that
the college lake is responsible for
mosquitoes, declares DR.. A. L. Me-

MAYOR JACKSON
IS OPTIMISTIC
Predicts That Population of Pullman
VIII Double In Next Five Years
and Business VIII Develop

People who have travelled In the
Northwest are all surprised to see
the improvements and developments
that are going on constantly in the
city of Pullman. We have Just COM
pleted many blocks of nice paved
streets, the college has almost COM
pleted two of the best buildings in
the Northwest, many other buildings
are under course of construction in
and near the city and the crops have
never looked better in the Palouse
country than they do today, all of
which adds to the stability and
future OF our city. People who
come here are attracted to Pullman
as place to live and rear their fam
lilies because of the church, school
and college advantages and activ-
tiles. Men OF money are attracted
here to make investments because
or our surroundings and outlook for
future growth and development In
the many fields which are yet UNI
touched. Only recently a gentleman
who visited this country assured the
people that he would make an in
yestment of several thousand dollars
in an up-to-date grain elevator and
later expects to buy and equip a
farm where he can raise fine horses
and cattle.
There have been number of
business men looking for locations
from various parts of the Northwest
and think that Pullman offers ex-
cellent inducements for future bust
ness in many different lines. 1t
looks now like we would have a gas
company which will furnish gas at
reasonable rate in the near future,
which means great saving In fuel
and lighting. Pullman, as a whole,
is in position to make great gains
in population as well as add new in
dustries in commercial way. The
Chamber of Commerce Is alert for
new enterprises and new people, and
will do all in its power to make 1t
pleasant and profitable for those
who wish to come into our midst.
Pullman offers advantages that no
other city in the Northwest offers
because Of its rich farming territory
and excellent climate. Washington
State College is doing its part and
the city school board is sparing no
means or time to give the best edu-
cational advantages to every one
who desires to take advantage of the
same. Let the future slogan of
Pullman be Forward Together"
and the next five years will see the
population of Pullman double.
