BOY SPLINTER A MARVEL.
High School Lad in Spokane Runs 100
Yards in 8 AS Seconds.

Athletic authorities of the North
west are booming Evan Pearson, a
Junior at the North Central high
school of Spokane, Wash, as one of
the best school-boy runners in the his
tory of competitive athletics, and a
glance at some of the youth s per
formances seems to Justify this conf
dence. The attention of the athletic
writer's of the. Northwest was at
tracted to Pearson by his feat of reg
istering 9 40 seconds for the 100
yard dash. This performance earned
for the youth the enviable classified
tion of being the greatest schoolboy
sprinter in this country today.
1t was in a meet at Spokane, Wash.
on May %, that Pearson set his re
markable figures for the century dash
One week later, in competition agains
Washington State college stars, h
again displayed ability over this dis
lance, when he breasted the tape al
easy winner in ten seconds fiat, haV
ing out-sprinted a large field. To adj
| further to his performance Pearso
later captured the 220-yard event an
| aided materially in bringing victor
in the relay race to his school.
Pearson is 10 years old and stand
five feet nine inches in his track shoes
He has been competing in schoolbo
athletics for the past three years, an
! from the first he has performed az
mirably He has never been beaten
the 100-yard dash, and in eight athle
ic meets in the Northwest he has bee
returned the highest point winner. tt
Spokane lad invariably contests
three or four everts on the same pr
gram, and in several instances he h
been known to participate in five co
tests with success. In the int
scholastic meet on Stage field, Univc
sity of Chicago, recently, Pearson ca
tured the individual honors of the da
and it was his efforts, mainly, wifi
, brought his school to the second Pc:

The youths are about seventeen years and their absence was not noted until shortly before 1 o'clock. The author <ities immediately made plans for their capture and an officer began the search. It was thought the boys would come in this direction, and the officer called at William Witham's place, but no one in that vicinity had seen them. MT .Witham was sworn i'm as an aid and he accompanied the officer in the search. They decided to reconnoitre about the Witham farm and their decision was shown to be correct, when they came upon tracks near the southern end of the farm. The men hurried along and captured one of the youths, who was running through the woods. The other saw the officers coming and ran away. Be- cause of the snowfall it was compar- ptivelv easy to track him and trail was followed. It came to an end, when the pursuers reached the Wheel brook, back of the Paper Goods plant The csca ped boy had become tired, put when he saw that capture was 1mmln- ent, he walked in the middle of the brook and armed himself with stones with the intention of keeping his pur- suers off The ruse availed him naught. for MT.

For the relief of suffering babies and little children, in this country and in Europe, the Camp Fire Girls will make special efforts in the week of March HIS to collect money and clothing. The appeal says: Little children arc suffering untold misery both in our country and in Europe. What is going on in Europe is enough to make us all very unhappy if we only knew about it. We go on With our work and play, little thinking of it. The newspapers cannot make people unhappy all the time by pub fishing the dreadful things that are actually happening. Over there chil- dren are found wandering in the fields hungry and cold, crying for their parents. Babies arc born every day, and the mothers not only have no dainty layOuts for the little ones, but in many cases have no clothing at all---many freeze and many starve to death."
