MORE THAN USUALLY WARM
Sailors Declare the Gulf Stream ls
0utdoin9 Itself at This Season.
for Some Reason.

Marine men blame the Gulf stream
FOR the summer weather prevailing
along the Atlantic coast. They say the
water Of the Gulf stream is almost
boiling.
In Norfolk, Va, the temperature
was Sc degrees. A hundred miles out
to sea just before the Gulf stream Is
reached the temperature was 101. &C
cording to information brought there
by marine men. Within one days run
from Norfolk by water there was a
difference Of nearly 40 degrees In the
temperature. It was SO hot In the Gulf
stream, marine men said, 1t was al
most unbearable to remain on deck
during the day.
Vessels passing through the peculiar
water during the day say the weather
Is hotter than they have ever expert
enced before. A difference In the tenn
perature Of the water dipped from the
Gulf stream with buckets from. ships
with that Of the ocean itself Is the
difference, marine men report, be-
tween moderately cool water and that
warm enough almost to poach an egg.
The Gulf stream water Is lighter than
the remainder Of the ocean and when
first dipped foams and bubbles like
water just on the point Of boiling.
1t was reported that an American
destroyer would go out to the Gulf
stream with party Of experts for the
purpose Of making observations for
use by the government and to ascer-
tain II reports brought in by mes~nant
ships are Authentic.

BRIDGE PROJECT
CONTINUED from page u


on foot to finance a bridge across
the Columbia at Vantage ferry. The
interests of the people in this COM
munity lie with the Inland Empire
highway and bridge across the Col
umbia between Kennewick and Pasco
He declared that if the people along
this highway will finance the bridge
they will have a powerful argument
to present to the legislature. He
dwelt at length on the value of tourist
travel saying California's 5000 miles
of hard surfaced roads hadn't cost
the people Of that state. a cent. The
tourists have paid the bill many times
over. The people of California know
this and they have eighty millions OF
dollars for road building purposes
in 1921.
Mr.. Carrigan predicted that the
proposed bridge would pay 8 per cent
on the capital stock from the begin
ming and possibly as much as 20 PEI
cent within two years after its COM
pletion. He estimated that fully
$25O,O00 or one-half of the capitali-
cation would be spent in Kennewick
and Pasco while the bridge is in the
course of construction.
Mr.. Trenbath explained that the
plan Of stock payment had been
changed to provide for cash pay
ment of 10 per cent to accompany
the application, as per cent March 1,
1921, and As per cent November 1,
1921. Notes for deferred payments
bear no interest until after maturity,
and no subscriptions become binding
until 100000 has been raised.
L. E. johnson, president of THE
First National bank, urged the people
to support the project and said he
could recommend the bridge stock as
a sound investment which will pay a
fair rate of interest.

When there is a more robust, fun
blooded ideal the mouth is not so
small. Thus you will see in most
of the old italian Madonnas very
small mouths, for the ideal OF those
artists was an aetherial, rather del
tcate type OF feminine loveliness. In
mid-Victorian days, when the stylt
was for wasp-waisted, delicate wo-
men. the small mouth was very
small indeed 1t was considered
downright vulgar to have a large
modth. And so there actually was
a vogue for holding the mouth so
as to make it seem to be smaller.
than it really was, and the purs a.
up, prune-and-prisms uoala thaa
came into fashion.
Some people say that me tsuasB-
cy in this country is to 90 es7iaf asS
mouth. If climate has any gradual
effect on the shaping OF our fea-
lures then this would not be
strange, for the American Indian
had a larger mouth, and it may be
that our North American climate
was responsible for this and is like
wise responsible for the enlarge
ment of the mouth OF present-day
Americans.

Should aaToman who has proper
ty Of her wn turn II over to her
husband when she gets married?
Ninety husbands out OF hundred
will answer this question in the af-
irmative. No idea Is more thor
oughly fxed in the average mascu-
line consciousness than the belief
that when there is any money la q
family 1t belongs by divine right In
the breeches pocket instead of the
hand bag.
Men found out long ago that the
hand that holds the pocketbook is
the hand that rules. and that there
is no slavery more complete than
that which is comprised in one hu-
man being depending upon another
for food, and clothes, and shelter.
The wife who must look to her hus-
band for every mouthful she eats
and every rag on her back and the
shelter over her head, Is In q very
different relation to him than she
would be IL she had her own bank
account.
That Is one phase OF the matter.
Another Is that practically every
man can use a little more money In
his business. Still another phase is
that every man is perfectly certain
that he knows more about handling
money than a woman does, and can
invest IL to bette advantage. Still
another phase of the matter Is that
he reasons that the money Is all in
the family, anyhow, so why should
not he have the prestige of using
il and signing the checks and hav-
ing the property all in his name?
Wherefore he reaches out and
grabs wife's roll unless her father
has held different views concerning
the rights OF a husband to his wife's
property, and has tied the money up
in trust so that hubby cannot get
his hands upon it.. What husbands
think about their rights to their
wives property is abundantly prov
en- by the fact that IL has taken
years and years of bitter struggle to
get laws passed giving women any
property rights at all.
She loses out. She Is left depend
ent on his bounty, and must ask OF
him as a favor the money that be-
longs to her by rights. She has
given away her birthright, and
while one may admire her gener-
osity one can but deplore her judg-
ment.
II the husband is all that he
should be-generous, kind, and
faithful. 1t may make no difference
to the woman who holds the purse
strings. But suppose the reverse of
this Is true, and the husband Is mig
| gardly, and withholds even her own
imoney from the wife. or worse still,

The Small Mouth.

go. by The Mcclure Newsp.

Just as the popular notion Il that
eyes should be largei and that hair
should be abundant. so the current
notion y of the ideal month. from
time oue Of mind has been that IL
should be small. or course there
are pretty girls and beautiful wom-
en- with large mouths, just as there
have been celebrated beauties with
small eyes-but they are exceptions.
And take any hundred pictures
submitted by any artists. skilled or
amateur. in q contest for a pretty
girls head and you'll find that nine
ty-nine plus one would have small
mouths.
For one thing the small mouth is
youthful AS we grow older our
mouths sag and our lips become
thinner. and. this makes the mouth
look longer, although as q matter
OF fact II may not be. Besides, in
the youthful face the cheeks are
fuller and rounder than as years
come. and this again makes the
mouth seem smaller.
Then the small mouth Is distinc-
lively Caucasian. That is, as a
general thing you will find the
mouth to be smaller among white
races than among black, brown or
yellow folk. Hence to us II seems
to betoken superiority. because we
are so thoroughly convinced that
we are superior.
You can find the small-mouthed
ideal all along the line. Gabrielle

Henry ~ of France, for instance.

tie rosy smiling mouth. She con-
formed to the popular ideal of
beuty in her day. and 1t Is the pref

still rules our dreams. Actresses

he IL a gay philanderer and the wife
sees him spending her money on
other women? Could any drop in
the cup of jealousy be bitterer than
that for a wife to drink?
Nor need a man be guilty of any
crime to dissipate his wife's for
tune. Many of the best men in the
world, many of the most lovable.
many OF the men who are the most
devoted husbands are poor business
men. They have no financial acu-
men. The very gentleness. the very
sunny optimism that make them so
delightful to live with unfit them
for stern. hard, practical. unsenti-
mental graphing with commercial
problems.
1t Is always a temptation to a
woman to turn her money over to
such a husband because she loves
him so. and because he's always
about to make a million on some
chimericai scheme, but money runs
through such a mans fingers like
water through a sieve, and the end
Of the family is in bankruptcy and
want that could so easily have been
prevented IL only the woman had
had enough sense and firmness to
hold on to her fortune.
The woman who turns her prop
erty over to her husband robs her
children of just so much in case OF
her death, for ii is notorious that
second wives, and the second set OF
children. almost invariably come in
to the bulk of the property in a
mans will, no matter from what
source the money came. There is
not one of us who does not know of
some case in which the children or
the first wife have been denied the
education they should have had. and
have had to get out and scuffie for
themselves. and live a poor hard ex-
istence, while the children of the
second wife have gone to fashion
able schools, and lolled around in
automobiles on the money that came
through the first wife.
This Is not to say that q woman
who has property should not help
her husband. She should. She
should be generous with him. She
should use her income for the up-
keep of the family, but she Is a
foolish woman who turns her prop
erty over to him, and takes the con-
troll of Ii out of her own hands,
For one thing is certain. II a
man Is the right sort of man he will
be glad to feel that his wife is pro-
tected from the horrors of poverty,
Independent of all that he can do
to save her from 1t. And if he is
not the right sort of man. then she
will need more than ever the bro
lection that money gives a woman.
