GIVE MEANING TO WHISTLE
Canary Island Natives Said to Hold
Conversations With Each other
by Musical Sounds.

Australia, it is said, can boast of
whistling spiders, whistling snakes
and whistlng moths. But has any
body ever heard of "whistling" Ian
guage?
1t is recorded that in the Canary
islands the natives are expert whis-
tiers and hold conversations with each
other through this medium. Travel
ers who have been to these islands
tell how they have learned the strange
language. and also Of how long and
complicated conversations have been
held by whistling with a neighbor
mile away.
The New Guinea whistling snake Is
very dangerous and many deaths have
been reported. 1t rushes to an in
truder with a whistling. noise and the
bite causes almost instantaneous
death.
The United States has "whstling"

OLD NAMES FOR MODERN CARS
Been Given to Distinctive Makes
of Automobiles.

The first sedans were portable en-
closed chairs carried on poles by two
men. They were extremely popular in
England and are still used in China
and India. The modern sedan has an
enclosed body and accommodates seven
passengers.
''Limousne" was originally the name
of a cloak worn In France, and prob
ably originated from Limousin, the
name of an old province in central
France. Today 1t is applied to the
chauffeur-driven car with an enclosed
compartment. The drivers seat is out
side, but covered by roof
Roadster" was first applied to yes
sells that worked their way by means
of the tides. Later it was used for
bicycles. The modern roadster has
an open body and was designed pri-
marily for two persons, but of recent
years the four-door roadster, accom-
modating four passengers, has met
with popular favor.
The touring car" which is the most
familiar type of car, takes its name
from the fact that 1t is used by motor
lists on lengthy tours. 1t is an open
car also. with n tonneau and four
doors. seating seven passengers.

COUGAR CUBS
WALlOP FROSH
Washington State Frosh Develop
Shooting Ability in The Second
Half and Win, 81 to "a.

Washington State College Frosh
developed spectacular shooting abili-
ty in the second half of the first OF
a series with the Idaho Frosh, piling
up 81 to "a count, last Saturday
night in the Moscow gym. The first
half ended 13 to 9 in favor of Idaho's
youngsters.
The Frosh played far beneath their
usual form, not hitting the stride
they had shown against the Varsity
at any time. By common consent no
individuals in the team were batting
500 per cent of their best gait, with
Fox and Bohan doing most of the
floor work. Carton played well at
guard. Friel was the only outstand-
ing man for the Cougar cubs, doing
some pretty shooting in the second
half, and exceptional floor work dur
ing the game.
Another game will be played in
the near future, and the Frosh have
the support of the school and are ex-
pected to win. 1t can easily be done
if the boys hit their regular stride.

some of the fundamental principles
in the teaching process"
Professor Soulen for some time has
been demonstrating to his classes
how object teaching may be done in
connection with the industries of our
own country but the exhibit just re-
ceived has value of it's own by arous
ing the curiosity of the child as it is
something novel from the Philippines
The collection was serured for Ida
no from the Bureau of Eduration of
the Central Luzon Agricultural
School, of Munoz, Nueva Ecija,
through Fabian D. Ream, '08, of the
Preparatory department of Idaho. He
was from Bear Lake. At the present
time he is connected with the Luzon
Agricultural school which is laboring
for the advancement of agriculture
in the Philippines.

known to give notice of coming
storms, the rushing wind over it caus-
ing loud shrill warning of approach
ing squalls. Singing sands are well
known in the United States. but in
south Colorado "squeaking" ones are
found. The cause remains a mystery,
but the sand only "squeaks" in dry
weather.
Plants caves and trees are recorded
among the "whistlers" Of the earth
and 1t is interesting to find that in
Nubia and the Sudan there grows a
specie of acacia which the natives call
the 'whistling" tree. It's whistle" is
not that of an ordinary blowing of the
wind through it's branches, but it
arises from the air playing on some
holes of a bladderlike formation, be-
ing the work Of insects.

The limit to which fish fit for food are
found is LOGO feet. Even so, the dis.
covery that valuable food fishes live In
far deeper water opens up amazing
possibilities. and will have a most i'm
portant bearing on the future food
supply CT the world.
The North sea. which has for ages
supplied most of the fish markets of
western Europe, is so shallow that, ex-
cept in very few places, building
as high as st. Paul's cathedral, placed
on the bottom. would stick out above
the surface. 1t has generally been con-
sidered useless to fish in greater
depths.

PLANT MUSEUM HERE
FROM PHILIPPINES
Educational Department Receives
Wonderful Specimens of Plant
Life From Manila.

A novel collection of educational
material from the Philippine Islands
was received today by tht Education
department of the University. 1t
consists of a group of folios contain
dng industrial plant specimens and
shows the evolution of these plants
In their various stages to the finished
product.
On the first page of the folio the
photograph is shown of the plant as
it grows; drawings are made of all
parts of the plant and cross sections
shown. These are followed by press
ed specimens of the plant in all it's
stages of evolution until finally on
the last page beautiful photograph
appears Of the many finished pro-
ducts.
Every plant is accompanied with
history, giving it's distribution and
habitat, description, material and
uses. Among the plants sent are
four species of the bamboo; the
abaca, fibre plant which ranks first
IN commercial Importance in the
Philippines and yields an excellent
white fibre which commands promi-
nent place in the worlds markets. 1t
comes under the commercial name of
Manila hemp and is used extensively
in laces, hats, slippers and baskets.
The history of all the plants sent is
most interesting. Besides the folios
the collection includes finished pro-
duets such as card trays and window
-gaskets which are true works of art. |
Wonderful Exhibit.
In speaking Of the specimens Pro-
-fessor Soulen said, "The Collection
in itself formes the nucleus of an
educational museum. I appreciate
the gift from that viewpoint but it is
of particular value to the department
of education by furnishing from an
entirely novel field material for OBJ
