Oakland, Cal, Dec. 23.
The mirrors at the high school
as looking glasses are good wall
covering.
No longer is it possible for the
pretty miss to stop in front of
them and dab a bit of powder on
the shiny spot on her nose or to
give her coiffure. an extra caress.
For the mirrors are in sack
cloth.
And it was Miss Ruth Wilder,
vice principal, who issued the or
der causing the refletcing glass
es to be so draped.
Miss Wilder caused a question
Inaire to be circulated among the
teachers in the girls classes con-
cerning paint, powder, over
and under-dressing and the
like. When the blanks came back
all properly filled out the opin-
ion of the teachers seemed to be
that there was just a trifle
too much attention to powder,
paint and dressing on the part of
the several thousand young lady
students.
Forthwith there appeared on
each mirror a notice that unless
the evidences Of the use of pow
der, the lip stick and the rouge
box were speedily eradicated the
mirrors would be taboo. Evi-
IDENTIFY the girls did not take the
mandate seriously. They contin-
ued to cover the shiny spots on
their noses with powder and to
assist nature with rouge and the
lipstick-that is, some Of them,
according to Miss Wilder.
Then came the order draping
