.MID-YEAR PUPILS
TO Be CARED FOR
Columbia School Of Drafting
Makes Special Provision
for Them.

Special arrangements for accommo-
dation Of pupils leaving high school
in the mid-year graduations have been
made by the Columbia School OF
Drafting. The Columbia School Of
Drafting, which after some. minor
changes recently made in its direc-
ton, Is now among the leading draft
ing colleges of the country.
. The prominence OF the Columbia
school is largely due to the broad
scope OF the courses taught there.
1t is not alone an institution for the
teaching of any single branch OF work
but is rather a complete university
OF craftsmanship whore every type
and structural outline work Is taught.
The idea OF this school In making
such accommodations for high school
graduates Is that many OF the young
men and ladies who are turned out
in the mid-winter season have a de-
sire Immediately to pursue some
further course of study that will ut
them for the battle of life. 1t is to
give these pupils a chance to start
right in with their work. instead of
having to wait FOR the next regular
school tearm that this school is now
opening special mid-season classes.
which starts the course with the mid
year.
Because of its practical. courses,
a general demand has been created
for graduates of the Columbia School
OF Drafting, extending to many other
cities. where at the. present time q
number of their graduates are at
work. -.
Among the courses taught at the
Columbia School of Drafting is me-
chanical drafting, architectural draft
ing, topographic drafting, structural
drafting. patent drafting, ship draft
ing, patent specifications, mathemat-
les, and other. courses OF a general
business nature. Such courses as
these enable the young graduates to
take up Immediately the work of fit-
ting themselves for afterlife.

NO JUNO, BUT HEDE,
HER FATHER SAYS
Laborer Calls Darling Of Alas
ka," Who's Seeing New
York, His Daughter.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2s.-The swift
trail which Miss Louise Sachen, the
darling of the miners" has been
"mushing" since she arrived In New
York last week announcing she yas
from the wilds of Alaska, seeking the
delights Of civilization, slowed up
materially yesterday when Nick
Sachen, laborer, of Kansas City, Kan,
claimed her as his daughter.
Far from being a placer miner in
an ice girdled gulch, the enan who
says he is her father is an honest day
workingman in Kansas City, where
the only ice attainable comes from
the refrigerating plant, and where
the stockyards provides the CHER
touch of real nature.
Wanted to See New York.
He said yesterday that his daugh-
ter, Louise, had indeed been in Al
aska. She had passed two years up
there, he said, working in a board
ing house and getting her exercise on
the runways between kitchens ana
dining rooms and not the dog trails
over the hills. OF Jack" Maloney,
the somewhat astonished Mr.. Sachen
said he had heard also. Jack" &C
cording to his evidence, is a saloon
keeper Id Fairbanks, Alaska, who
gave Miss Sachen fhe diamonds she
exhibited in New York, and whom,
Mr.. Sachen said earnestly, he advised
her to marry while the going was
good"
Instead of matrimony, Miss Sachen
chose to go on to New York ito see
the high buildings and big places"
and she went, he says, as she can go
any place 'if she can raise the dough
to bum around on"
The lady of SHOWS" denied that
Nick Sachen, of Kansas City, was
her parent. She said she was, in
deed, the daughter OF a placer miner
and aSstrangef to the delights Of q
great city until she reached New
York.
Talks Jargon OF Mines.
She said when she arrived here
that she was a child OF nature who
knew naught Of civilization save that
garnered from fieeting trains as she
sped to New York, and during a short
pause in Kansas City, where she
stayed with a half-sister. She told III
her log cabin, of the men folks labor
ing in their chill tent house. and Of
THE spring cleanup" which gave her
gold In "her poke" to come to New
York.
She talks the jargon of the mines
and she kfsows Alaska. She has re-
received hundreds of invitations 10
speak before learned bodies on life In
the frozen North and she has accepted
them. She had her picture taken by
moving picture concerns and has oeen
the guest of theatrical stars and OF
celebrities. Novelists have sought ner
to get atmosphere" and on TUESDAY
night she was to be the chief guest
of the University Forum at the WASH.
ington Irving High School, to tep OF
