INDIAN CHILDREN MAKE HIT-
WITH THEIR LOCAL PATRONS

The entertainment provided by the
little original Americans" of the local
Indian school was highly appreciated
by the audience which gathered at the
Nixon opera house. The object of the
entertainment was primarily to show
the people what advance the children
have made under direction of Mrs. De
Witt Nelson. and in the second place
to secure money wherewith to pur-
chase an organ for their mission. Mrs.
Nelson is pleased to announce that
the instrument has been secured, and
with a little money left over she will
purchase a quilting frame and some
materials wherewith the children can
begin making quilt, which will after
ward be sold. The mission will re-
main strictly non-sectarian, and all
moneys received from any source will
deposited in and dispersed from a
local bank, and accounts will be open
to inspection of those interested.

HOOVER APPEALS
TO GIRL STUDENTS

The food administration is taking
steps to mobilize for food administra-

Hoover is addressing a letter to the
graduating women, which reads in full
as follows
THE United States food administra-
ton calls you TO its service. Our
need is so great that we appeal to you
to prepare yourselves as best you can
and to enlist for the great work that
must be done. There will be diversity
of tasks and therefore diversity of
talent and training can be used. All
our questions now center in food-its
production, its distribution, its use and
its conservation. The more you know
about these things the more valuable
you will be and the greater will oe
your service to humanity. II you
have not already done so, we urge you
to pursue studies dealing especially
with food; but these should be rein
forced by courses in chemistry. physi-
ology and economies. It will be we'll,
too. If you have acquired the arts of
public presentation of your knowledge
to the people who so much need IT,
Fortunately. most of our educational
institutions now offer courses which
give the necessary training for thus
work; but to the others an appeal is
being sent to provide such instruction
wherever it is possible. More detailed
suggestions and directions will be
published soon. Today your country
asks you TO resolve to do what you
can in this hour of extreme peril TO

RABID COYOTE SUPERSTITION
HAS ABOUT RUN ITS COURSE

As evidence that the propaganda of
"rabid coyote'is nearing its deserved
end. the Manhattan Magnet prints the
following refutation of one of the
stories recently circulated to perpetu-

John A. Moore, the Smoky Valley
cattleman, desires to correct the story
recently printed in another newspaper
to the effect that he had been COM
PEELED to kill a number of his cattle
because they were bitten by a rabid
coyote. AS a precaution, he says, he
did kill five head a year ago, but he
says that there has been no evidence

HER VAMPINC ACT
Is THE REAL THING

As the personification of Vanity,
Louise Glaum makes her appearance
in "Idoiaters," a Triangle production
directed by Walter Edwards, which
will be shown at the American theatre
tonight. Noted for the spider gown"
the peacock dress, and the devil roee
of "The Wolf Woman" Miss Glaum
has become known as "the peacock
woman of pictures; and the title will
gain new emphasis, it is said, when
she appears in the startling costumes
of "Idolaters. Her role is that of a
self-adoring woman who declares that
she will "four-hush her way" to sue
cess on the stage, and she does, with
the aid of masculine admirers.
The most unusual setting ever con-
structed for a Triangle play is the
Egyptian bedroom of the woman in
"Idolaters." A huge marble Sphinx is
the central feature Before it is a
bathing pool, depressed in the tile
floor. Around the edge of this float
waxen white lilies in tiny cups. Bra
ziers of beaten copper smoke with
burning incense before tall peacock
fans at either side of the Sphinx i'm
age and at the foot of the ads, on
which stands a massive carved bed
hung with embroidered draperies. In
this curious boudoir transpire most
of the dramatic scenes.
Miss Glaum, whom a noted critic
recently declared to be "the screens
most creditable vampire" has part
peculiarly fitted to her abilities. She
is supported by George Webb, Hugo B.
Koch, Milton Ross, Dorcas Mathews,
Lee Hill and Thomas S. Guise.

JOE WARD PLAYS
SAFE With MONEY

Joe Ward, the Tonopah prospector
who struck it rich in Death Valley, is
wiser than some of his rivals in the
same field, for he has asked the court
at San Bernardino to appoint a CON
servator to assume charge of his estate.
Ward is the "strontia king" Luck
brought him an income of 100000 a
year, and since then Ward has tried
to adjust himself to the new order of
affairs, but finds he is a miserable @
misfit in modern society, and there
fore he has appealed to the court 10
place him in such a position that be
cannot throw away his fortune.
1t will be remembered, says the
Reno Gazette, that Ward had been
staked by few friends in Tonopah
to go out into the Death Valley coun-
try. where he said he had a fortune in
sight. The strontia locations had be Fl
made and nothing more remained to
be done, but Ward wanted to find
something else. He was obsessed by
the idea that if he could only uncover
a tungsten ledge he would be fixed for
life. That is how he came to borrow
the last ten dollars in Tonopah, an
three days after his departure the Du
Pont people were moving heaven and
earth to locate him and thrust an in
come of 100000 a year on the pennI-
less adventurer.
1t is this 100000 that is causing so
much anxiety. Friends thought Ward
would emulate the example of Seotty,
of Death Valley fame, by instantly
plunging into some wild delirium that
would arrest the eyes of the world.
They were agreeably disappointed.
Joe Ward vanished from the local
stage after paying off his debts and
nothing more was heard of him until
he notice from San Bernardino stat
ng his determination to place himself
md his belongings in such position
that he would not be able to do the
Coal Oil Johnny act, if he should take
a notion All Ward wants is the priv
lege of roaming the broad desert
coming and going at will with his
three little burros without anybody to
modest him.

THERE ARE NO UNEMPLOYED
NEVADA SCHOOL TEACHERS

State superintendent Bray states
that, so far as his Office is concerned.
the limit has been reached in the sup
ply of Nevada teachers for the public
schools. He adds that the State de-
partment of education makes it a
point other things being equal, to give
preference TO Nevada teachers. not
withstanding that some principals of
schools in the State have failed to
cooperate heartily in this policy. Ac-
cording to Mr. Bray's statement, all
Nevada teachers of merit are en-
ployed, and it is occasionally neces-
sary to send out of the State to supply
teachers for vacancies occurring

NEARLY four years have not sufiiced
to convince the German war lords that
frightfulness and savagery cannot
brighten the free peoples of the world
into submission. Apparently they do
not yet understand that the more
women and babies they kill the more
they harden the resolution of fathers,
brothers, son and husbands to fight
to the end in defense of their homes.
The gun that is Smelling Paris is at
lacking the morale not of Parisians
only, not OF the French alone, but of
British and Italians and Americans as

has it military value. And its value

Labor For Missouri Road Work.

The State Highway Board has just
authorized the establishment of nine
additional prison road camps in Mis-
souri,. Under the law counties must
first ask for the use OF convicts be-
fore they can be used in that county
for road construction. This makes it
necessary for the county court to
make it's request both to the state
prison board and the state highway
board. Prisoners are furnished for
road work at $3.50 per day, the state
prison board paying the expense
OF transportation, equipping and MAIN
tanning the camp. Road machinery
must be supplied by the county, town.
ship or district. A charge of 80 cents
a day is made for the prisoners on
days they do not work--this item to
cover the cost OF board in camp. The
state highway board has been co.
operating with the state prison board
in equipping the camps, and applica-
tons are on file for prison labor in
different sections of the state. The
men are placed on their honor and
work without guards. The percent
age of escapes from ''honor road
camps" is less than that "over the
walls" at the prison. The men soon
become proficient road builders, and
they take an active interest in their
work. Prisoners cannot be supplied
to contractors, and wherever this
class of labor is used the men must be
worked ION force account" under the
direction OF men employed by the
county court. In the case OF estate
road" work a superintendent is sup
piled by the state highway depart
ment, one.half the expense being
borne by the local authorities.
