Miss Lulu E. Vance county superin
tendent of schools elect, is one of the
we'll known and progressive young wo-
men of Ada county. She might well be
termed an Idaho young woman for she
has received practically all of her
school training in this state, only leav-
ing to take the higher courses in the
University of California ut Berkeley.
Miss Vance attended the rural school
at Franklin, graduated from the eighth
grade there, then entered the Boise
high school, from which she graduated
in the class of 1910. She then went to
Mosc ow, where she spent two years,
and afterwards went to Berkeley,
where she graduated with honors. She
was recommended for school supervi-
sion work at Honolulu. but preferred TO

FURNITURE In LIGHT COLOR
Housekeepers Will Welcome the
Idea as One of Great Merit.

In no way can a chair, a couch or
almost any article of furniture which
has become dingy be frightened more
easily and inexpensively than by jul
dicious use of cretonne. But .cretonne
this season is by no means merely
disguise foT the unsightly.
The shops are showing as the new
est thing in bedroom furnishings for
the country house whole sets of white
or cream enameled wood with fabric
panels in every piece, and many sep
arate articles similarly decorated
serve various purposes. This is an
advantageous fashion, for with the aid
of few yards of cretonne 1t is pos
sible to transform beyond recognition
a piece of furniture and make of il
an up-to-date novelty and not some
thing which has obviously been made
over.
Cretonnes are used in every con-
ceivable way this spring. They are
no longer confined to the boudoir and
the porch, but make their appearance
in practically every room In the house.
Consequently wider variety Of de-
signs has been put forth. There are
still the dainty flower and wreath de-
signs, but more ingenuity seems to
have been expended upon the beauti-
full verdure patterns for upholstery
purposes and the big, splashy exam
pies of Chinese design so effective as
hangings in living room or library.
In the darker hues the heavy cre-
tonnes closely resemble tapestry and
rival it in beauty Of color tone and
design. They make excellent cover
ings for the freside chair or odd rock
er, are now considered to be in good
taste in any informal living room, and
cost but a fraction of what is asked for
tapestry. The more vivid color com.
binations contrast we'll with wicker
ware. whether plain or in the old
ivory or mahogany stain. Wicker
tables, muffin stands and tea wagons
have conterpieces and trays of the Gre
tonned covered with glass.

DISTINGUISHED War Veteran.

The Journal Official of France con-
tains the following: Corporal Surru-
que (Charles) No. 9131, Ninth COM
pany, Sixth regiment of engineers;
veteran of 1870; knight of the Legion
of Honor; volunteered for the dura-
tion OF the war at the age of seventy
six, asked to be sent to the front as a
sapper, shares without any sign OF
physical weakness all the work carried
on by his company, both by day and
by night, under the enemy's fire; a
most conscientious soldier of discip-
line, energy and Beenness." In private
life Surrugue is civil engineer and
regularly walks many miles to super
intend the construction and upkeep OF
the light railways in his district. A
twenty-mile walk is mere child's play
to him. For twelve years before the
war he was the mayor OF his native
town Of Auxerre. in Yonne, a place OF
1900 inhabitants. In the war OF 1870
Corporal Surrugue served with Gen.
eral Faidherbe. Called up as a civil
engineer. he gained the rank OF cap
tain. He was twice mentioned in dis
patches.

GermanY's Trained Men.

Here is the list in the logical order
which the Germans considered in max
ing war a science, remarks the En-
gineering Magazine: ID investiga-
ton, finding out what to do; (2) or
ganization, building the machine that
would properly carry out what should
be done; (3) records, gathering facts
and statistics to be used by this or
ganization in arriving at the right
kind OF conclusions in carrying out
what should be done; (4) planning,
logically arranging and co-ordinating
all details so that the various steps
can be rapidly and efficiently carried
out; go standardization, carrying out
the steps determined or actually do
ing the work in a proper manner; (6)
incentives, the results of the success
full application OF the other five.
In other words, the Germans real
lied that to win the rewards of war
the actual work would have to be
done properly by we'll trained men,
after the most careful kind of PLAN
ming, based on and, as indicated by
records, secured through an efficient
organization, which thoroughly inves-
tigated every possible feature in con-
nection with the task ahead of it.

USE QUAINT PHRASES
INDIAN BOYS WRITE HUMOROUS
YET PATHETIC LETTERS.
One Complained That Mules "Iniured
His Reiigion'-Low Wages and
Hard Work Has Embittered
Life of Another.

The struggles of Indian boys in the
different schools with the English lam
guage are revealed in a batch of let
tiers in the possession of A. s. WHY,
superintendent of Indian schools in
Oklahoma
An Indian boy on a farm wrote: Il
am not going to use those mule teams
any longer than can help. They in
jure my religion. have to scold them
and use bad words before can get
them a-going on such speed as want
them. These facts are true, to be wit,
by God"
Il Just received your good sarsa-
parilla letter and your picture" wrote
another. Il can feel that it is purify
ing and enriching, the letter and the
picture, acting gently on my liver and
Trainer. Write me, 1 am in love with
the truth"
Another Indian boy placed on a
farm wrote letter of objection to that
kind of labor, and gentle complaint
as to the wages he received.
MY honored school father and
friend" he wrote to Superintendent
WHY, now l am going to write you
this day and inform you how I like my
place. First Of all matters would say
earnestly don't like it. | think the
trouble is l am too big for him, be-
cause he told me right before my face,
he said he rather have a small boy, so
he can give him Sc or 81 month for
his labor. This was when first came
to this place and ever since he has
had same opinion
Another thing he can't give me
higher wages, he wouldn't do it for
any man, and yet the tight-wad wants
me to work on two farms and yet he
only give me SO a month, gracious
life. A woman can get more as SO a
month keeping house. I would rather
be housekeeper than work on two
farms at $40 a month
An Indian boy from the Snake set
tlement tries to tell the superinten-
dent he is tired of school and would
rather go back to the tepee. He is
not the first boy who has played sick"
to get away from school, but no school
boy ever voiced it in such quaint lam
guage.
"My dear friend school father" he
wrote. Particularly am endeavoring
to assume splendid opportunity to
say just concisely to you on this beau
tiful morning. l suppose you recog-
nize that 1 am sick in my giblets. I
deem l am we'll again no more. I
want you to let me go home as soon
as this month. If stay here so long l
can't be entirely we'll, maybe So"

AFFECT SHORT Wells

The short fly-away veil is more pop
ular than ever, writes a Paris CORE
spondent. ! mean the quaint little veil
which just covers the nose and which
is attached to the hat brim like gath
cred fiounce. French women find these
wells convenient. Once they are ar
ranged they need not be touched until
the hat Is taken off, for they do not
get into the way of a teacup or indeed
of anything else
The most popular veil of the present
season is made of violet spotted net,
with fine black lace border, the lat
ter quite narrow. Violet spotted net
is specially becoming to fresh complex,
ions. quite as becoming as heliotrope
tulle, which is saying good deal.
/ have seen fly-away wells In nut
brown tulle introduced with good eff
feet on rough brown straw hats; violet
wells are worn with black, dark blue,
purple and pale gray hats
Lewis told me the other day that
hatter's plush was going to be the
material for spring and summer hats.
You, of course, realize that hatter's
plush is the silky material used to
cover mems tall hats.
At the immediate moment the Parish
ennes are wearing wide-brimmed hats
covered with this stiff stuff in con-
junction with the smartest walking
costumes, and it almost invariably
happens that the hat is absolutely un-
trimmed.
This is a smart fashion and very
French. Good hatters plush is an ex-
pensive material and the hats in ques-
ton, though guiltless of trimming, are
fairly costly. The well-known milliner
1 have just mentioned is of opinion
that such hats-in black and ivory
white-will be largely worn in the
summer with thin muslin frocks and
bright silk sweaters 1t will be very
pretty style.
In several of my recent articles
have spoken of the revival Of interest
in ostrich feathers, long and short In
deed feathers and feather trimming
may be said to be ubiquitous just now
On many of the newest evening gowns
little clusters of feathers take the place
Of flowers, at waist or breast, and
fringes of feathers appear on the capes
and collars of theater and restaurant
cloaks.
A little later on in the year we shall
find long feathers of the weeping
order again very fashionable; just now
the rage is for short full tips. Lewis
is covering the whole crown Of hats

Artificial Flowers for Trimming.

Old-fashioned artificial flowers,
copied after the early Victorian period
appear on quite few of the gowns
The idea Of placing artificial flowers in
the center of group of embroidered
foliage, which was used to some ex-
tent last fall. is seen again
The artificial flowers, which are
made OF the material of the gown, are
crushed. and occasionally further
trimmed. In one instance the edges OF
the petals are embroidered with small
jet beads. In a great many instances
some of the petals are encased in gold
net. Martial ct Armand use charming
crushed flowers made OF net in old
colors.
Regular artificial flowers at the
waist line or at the pannier draperies
are met with in several instances.

and toques with small feathers, and
saw the same thing chez Reboux and
earlier. Long hat pins covered with
tiny feathers will be very popular this
year; hat pins with torpedo heads.
Small tips are also worn in the hair
at the theater, or for a dinner party.
This is an effective fashion and spe-
cially charming when small black
feathers are introduced in coils OF fair
or powdered hair.

Partisan actress wore an Alfred Stew
