ROW AT HIGH SCHOOL
Students Object to Disseminating
Publication of Glass Book Because
Of High Cost of Printing.

Much opposition on the part of the
student body at the High school is
being manifested with regard to rul-
ing of the school administration which
is likely to be put into effect soon.
Because of the fact that those in
charge of preparing the school annual
have not done their work, and due to
the increase in prices of materials
used in the printing of such a book,
the administration of the school has
expressed it's views on the publication
for this year as unfaVOrable. II the
book is to be made up this year, they
claim that it will not be ready for dis
tribution until the first of July and
will cost IS. Despite the fact that the
pupils of the senior class and many
of those of the other classes are more
than willing to pay this price, the ad-
ministration feels that the project
should be dropped for this year.
The pupils, on the other hand, are
strongly opposed to any such course.
The book is the only record Of the
history of the class, the class night
speeches and the activities Of the class
and they do not feel disposed to do
away with it this year. They feel they
are already saving in enough ways on
their graduation expenses. AT a meet
ing of the girls of the class held re-
Gently, the girls voted to do away with
the evening gowns formerly worn by
the graduating class on class night
and to the "prom.'' The maximum
price which they fixed to spend for
their dress is to be S. The young
men Of the class also held a special
meeting and voted to drop the custom
of the school of wearing white trou-
70
the "prom." The class has also COM
bined the two big social functions Of
the year--the prom" and banquet
and will hold the banquet on a small
err scale. This, they feel. is enough
in the line of saving, and they are OPP
posed to doing away with their class
book.

SMUGGLE SUGAR OYER LINE
Outdoor Sport Along the Border Is

Load of Sweets,

Ell Paso, Texas, May 15.-Gun rum
leggers'' and other border law break
ers who thrive upon the illicit traffic
between countries characteristic of all
borders, have turned their attention
to smuggling sugar into Mexico.
Sugar is on the American embargo
list for the period of the war. SO is
lard and also flour and butter and
other foodstuffs. But sugar is the
most popular commodity with the
smugglers. 1t is easy to carry across,
does not spoil and can always be dis
posed of at a high price once it is
over the border. The smugglers match
their wits against those of the gov
ernment'S keenest secret service men,
taking their winnings in american
gold and their losses in the federal
penitentiaries.
Although bustles went out of Style
many years ago, the wearing of them
has been revived by the sugar snug
glers. The Mexican women of ample
girth wear the rude canvas bustles
more for revenue than for style. Cons
cealed in the pockets of their bustles
are pounds and pounds of sugar. Mex
|
gers fasten these cumbersome affairs
about their waists under their dress
skirts and walk Or ride across the in-
ternational bridge until some curious
inspector discovers the rusc. and stops
the practice by placing the smugglcr.
in jail.
Kerosene cans arc converted into
