TRAINING TABLE FOR.
BIG MEET ATHLETES
High School Boys Will Be
Given Touch of Real
College Life.
MoReANrowN. Mo o.,

MoR6ANTowN. May 13-Dennite
arrangements were completed today
whereby every boy who attends as a
oontestant every coach and every
manager. attending the Second Annual
Track and Field meet for West Wr-
ginia High schools here Saturday Of
this week will take their meals at one
large training table. Last year the
plan Of allowing each team to eat at
the private housewhere Il was quar-.
tered was followed. This was not
wholly satisfactory as training diet was
not provided. the meal hours did not
suit the strenuous schedule the boys
followed during their brief stay here
and there were other disadvantages.
Biggest Dining Room In Moraantown.
Therefore when plans were first laid
for the 1913 meet It was decided that
one large training table should be ooer-
ated where every visitor either con-
testant or coach or manager, could eat
at the same time. The only room Of
TINS size suitable for dining purposes
in Morgantown was that at the big
First NJ. E. church and the Ladies' Aid
was approached with view to serv.
ing the meals. Final ARRANGEMENTS
along this line were completed today
and Il Is planned TO be ready to feed
more than two hundred boys. The din
ing room will accommodate about two
hundred and fifty at one time and the
cooking facilities are entirely adequate
to take care Of this number. The
menus for each meal have already
been planned and the hours for the
meals fixed. Nothing but the best OF
training grub" will be furnished. but
there will be plenty of this and 1t will
be cooked by the best Chefs" in Nor
gantown, l. e., the housekeepers who
are affiliated with the Ladies' Aid.
Will Room at "Frats."
Nor will the boys be sent to private
houses for their rooms on Friday and
Saturday nights. The fraternities
have agreed to house the very large
majority Of these and the rest will be
placed at the hotels. The ParkersburE
team Of twelve men will stay at the,
Sigma Chi house; the entire Hunting.

But going deeper into the problem It is found
labor represents the large item of 800 for con-
struction alone, it actually represents far more
kwhen traced to the sources of the materials en-
tering into erecting of a house or any building.
1t is obvious that every slab of lumber, every
brick, every ounce Of plaster, every square foot
of roofing, every article of hardware, every
drop of paint, in fact, every smallest quantity
of material was originally produced through
the use of labor and what that percentage Of
labor might finally be if there was any way Of
finding out is, Of course, something we can but
imagine.
1t appears conclusive, however, that labor rep
resents far more than half the cost of present
day building and some authorities figure it
runs upwards to 1879 and 500.

Mrs, Hancort the director, will write the scenario.
 This announcement will be a great surprise to the parents of the chill dren, as well as the children them selves As a New York representa- tive of moving picture concern put 1t, 'it will be the first of its kind ever seen in the United States" At the present time preparations and ar- engagements are being made, as nego- tiations are already under way with three various moving picture con cerT-s, and are expected to be com Pleted before very long.
 When the movie" of Fairy Land is finished, the picture will be fea- tured in various theatres throughout the country, and local talent will be known to all patrons of the screen. Meanwhile, the repeated requests to have the entertainment staged once more in one of the local theatres fol the benefit of charity, have been con- siGered and decided upon, and in g few weeks the show will be present ed again.
 All those children who took part ir the entertainment are urgently re- quested by the director to keep theil l costumes and everything else thar goes with them.

 For cleaning rugs dampen with ammonia in soap water. It makes the rugs look bright and new.
 To clean faucets use sand with a small amount of water. When through rub briskIy with a woollen rag
 If the stain is not all removed, dissolve shellac in alcohol to the con- sistency of milk or cream and with it cover the sooty parts. Paint or whitewash over the shellac.

CAROLINE HERsCHEL.

Caroline Lucratia Herschel stands in the front rank of women of the past who have helped to shed light upon abstruse subjects. She was a noted astronomer and died seventy one years ago today, Jan. g, 184S. She was the daughter of a musician of Hanover, and was brought up as a musician. She accompanied her brother, William the illustrious Sir William Herschel-to England. Brother and sister turned their attention to astronomy, and in 1789 Caroline published a "Cata- logue of Stars" at the expense of the Royal Society. Until Sir William died in 1922 she was content to be known as his assistant, but afterwards en- gagged in independent investigations. She is credited with having discover ed five comets. She was in her nine ty-eighth year when she died in Han over
