WATCH YOUR WORDS
GlRLS-Do AWAY WITH
SLANG EXPRESSIONS
(By Helen Worthihgton)

tDy IlEltn WI
I. One of the easiest habits to drl;t in
to is that of using slang. And once
acquired. it is so very difficult TO get
rid of it,
I Slang expressions roll off ones
tongue almost unconsciously. You
hear someone make use of a slangy
phrase. and 10, and behold-before
you are aware you are saying the same
thing.
/ The English language is beautiful
when spoken and used correctly. 1t
contains an unlimited supply of words
appropriate for all occasions. So why
express yourself in slang?
4 Slang expressions are so much
more apt" person remarked recent
ly.
| But are they?
: Once get in the way of using slang
and it really becosme exceedingly
W ludhC OutScll huOWn
through the pure English diction.
( Girls. do you like to hear other
young women use slang
| 1t is not dignified, to say the least.
Besides, it shows a lack of culture
land refinement
= But everyone does" you say. No,
not everone. Some girls believe it is
cute. However, if they could hear
themselves as others do. they would
soon desist
Recently / overheard two Jackson
young men discussing a girl here in
the city whom they both knew.
She is pretty girl, for thew men,
toned her name-with winning
smile and manner that attracts.
Her frocks are stylish and becom-
ing. Besides she dances we'll and is a
god comrade, each of which points the
young men made clear.
But this is what | heard:
i like Alice immensely and would
take her to parties and other places
because she's such good pal, but |
always feel ashamed when she talks
for she uses SO much slang" said
one of the boys. And they were Just
ordinary young fellows, too, not in
clined to be critical about many
Il know how you feel" responded
the other. mot long ago at a dance
presented her to some folk from out
Of town, and it made me feel cheap
the way she talked to them"
Seems as if she didn't know any
thing but slang" was the comment |
the other made-"and she talks so
loud. too, which makes it loom up
worse"
She's a nice-looking girl, and If
she wouldn't talk she'd get by" said
he first speaker.
That's it" said the other. II don't
Inc 10 near a girl use nothing but
slang, and that is all Alice seems cap
tble Of"
Girls. let that be a warning. if YOU
ire e'of the slang users.
For you may be very sure other
'oung men take the same attitude.
Then young man, in speaking of
mother Jackson girl, said:
She's too loud. took her out to
Inner one evening and the theater
fter, but once was enough for me.
Everyone was watching her and COM
nenting, she made herself SO conspic-
ous," he added, in disguised tone.
A low. sweet voice saying simple
words that have no semblance of
lang. with clear enunciation. is a
harm which every woman should &C.
uire-if she does not already possess
t.
Resolve to do away inelegant ex.
ressions.

EAST TOO COLD;
 JUDGE MORFORD
 TELLS SEATTLE

SEATTLE. - (Special) - Alaska, the land of snow, ice and the Eskimo, has no perils for Judge S. o. MOrfOrd, lawyer and mining man of Seward, who has just returned from the east, says the Post Intelligencer of March 9. The judge visited Washington, New York and back to his home town in Ohio.
 "I thought I would freeze before l got out of New York" he said. "Why, Alaska has warm weather compared with the east. haven't been back to my home town for several years, but when I reached there in February the thermometer registered IS degrees below zero in the middle of the day, and it certainly was cold enough for use. Every time I go back east l come out here feeling that Alaska and the Pacific coast are more nearly paradise than ever"

WORK ALASKAN
 MINES OR PAY
 TAX IS PLAN
DAY INTRODUCED MEASURE FOR INCOME WHICH
 COVERS MUCH

JUNEAU-( (SpecialD-Th taxa- tion bill introduced in the house by Representative Day provides that all patented mining claims must pay taxes on an assessment of $1,000 if not operated unless the owners of sutn claims show that they have ac- complished SlOO worth of work on each claim for the year on which such taxes would be due.
 This bill leaves church, public li- braries. cemeteries, etc, exempt but places a tax on all real and personal property in the territory for their full cash value. Mines with net profit of S5,OOO or more would be taxable, as would also be shares of stock held in banks by individuals or companies, and banks are required to make a statement of such stock to the tax commission or assessor. The bill al so provides that when property IS wilfully concealed it will be assessed at double the value. The bill also provides for appeals from the assess ment to be tried in the courts, that every tax has the effect of a lien on tA property taxed, that l5 per cent will be added to all taxes not paid on March of each year. It also pro vides rules for sales, for redemption and so forth.

EAT MORE AND WEAR LESS OR
 TRY ANOTHER WAY

PHILADELPHIA. - (Special)- The less a girl wears the more she must eat. This is the law of clothes, Miss NJ. Jane Newcomb, a State col lege lecturer, has discovered in her re- search work on the folly of fashions"
 She lay down this law in lecture before a group of women attending a three-day session of the extension school of Pennsylvania State college.
 Miss Newcomb said an inch cut off the skirt means an extra pound of beefsteak inside.
 But the worst of it all is that the girl who walks the streets with skirts to her knees, silk stockings and chest barred to winter winds" as Miss Newcomb described her, must eat so much to keep warm that she becomes dyspeptic, nervous and irri- table"
 The girl with money can get enough food to keep her warm when she undresses for the street" Miss Newcomb went on, "but the working girl who spends all she earns on clothes to initiate the heireSs has so little left for food that she becomes weakened and an easy victim for tuberculosis"
