The artists who painted the large pic
lures Of Annette Kellerman who will
soon appear in "The Daughter of the
Gods, !" probably run out of painting
material before he finished, as several
good citizens strenuously objected to
the picture and made complaint to the
city authorities. 1t seems that the di-
vine form Of Annette was clothed most
ly with "a rag, bone and a hank OF
hair" minus the rag and the bone, and
even her coat of paint was thin. Any
how, the picture is not on display on
State street, but those who wish to see
Annette will have the privilege at the

Taking time by the forelocks is one
proposition and waiting to be told
where to head in is another. What we
intended to say was that the boys at the
high school who were working with the
wireless, dismounted their plant some
time ago and stored it safely away as
1T was a sure thing that the government
would order all wireless plants to be
dismounted or sealed, and this has al
ready happened in Portland. About a
dozen boys were interested in wireless
telegraphing but the government deeid-
ed that il needed monopoly on all the
air waves during the present crisis.
