BIG BOAT FOR
OAKLEY DAM

oakley is TO take ner place
tomorrow among the great naval
powers of the world. The Ford
Gray Hound, commanded by "Admi-
ral' Solomon, will begin her maiden
voyage to explore the wonders and
marvels along the Oakley Reservoir
and the canyons of Goose creek and
Trapper creek.
The idea of the Oakley fleet was
originated by the Curtis Brother,
who were the shipbuilders. They
discussed the proposition with A. NJ.
Solomon, manager of the Oakley
Auto Company, and he suggested
that a Ford engine be used as pro-
pelling power. This suggestion was
adopted and a regular model Ford
engine of A cylinders was installed.
The work of fitting the machin-
cry to the boat was done by Fenneil
and Gorringe of the Oakley Garage
The boat is about 20 feet long
and and 1-2 feet wide.
Fourth of July Feature
''The Ford Gray Hound" will /
make round-trip voyages from somei
convenient landing place at the !
dam. The trip over the big lake
will admit one to vast wonderland
of magnificent and picturesque
scenery. The canyon walls of Goose
creek and Trapper creek are justly
famous, and their reputation will
spread even more widely, thanks to
the new means of approach.
Iris will be made hourly on the
Fourth and on Sundays and other
holidays. On other days the boat
will be for rent to boating and fish
ing parties.
Their are undoubtedly many big
trout in the dam, and it is thought
that trolling from the boat will
prove exciting sport for the fisher
men of Southern Idaho.
'The Ford Gray Hound" will be
able to sail within short distance
of the Goose creek oil fields and the
big artesian water wells on Trappe~
creek. Good walkers no doubt will
go in the boat to its upstream limit
and then hike TO places of interest
beyond.
Picnic parties will be able to find
ideal arcadian sites near the shores
Of the lake. People of Burley, Ru-
pert, Paul, Twin Falls, and other
towns of southern Idaho, could not
10 better than come to the dam oc-
throughout the summer to
spend day.
Oakley Should Have Tourist Park
There is a scenic wonderland in I
he vicinity of Oakley that has few
'ivals in the great Northwest. Most

People here, like human beings {
'verywhere, complain sometimes of

oakley weather is delightful in COM ,
'arison with the weather in most
'laces. The nights are always cool, :
nd there is no morning when the

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT "OUTSIDE THE LAW

Everything that goes into the
making of great picture-story-
stars, supporting players, director,
productions to be found in "Out-
side the Law"
The story of Molly Madden, dar-
ling of the underworld, cannot be
told in words. One must see her
live it on the screen: how she ar
rays herself against black Mike Sill

figure of crookdom; how she aven-
ges her father; and how she is
changed from cold calculating
criminal into the most wonderful
thing in the world,-a woman with
love in her heart. All this is shown
in a mighty sequence of scenes,
thrilling with action, tense with
emotion and powerful big climaxes.

THE HIGH SCHOOLS OF NEW YORK

q INCE the organization of the

of the years of the war, bulletins have
been published annually. This hand
book Of procedure and personnel,
edited by Clyde R. Jeffords of Newton

the present status.
The chronology of the origin and

He says: THE old. city of New York,
comprising the present boroughs of

into a neat bow knot, or simple
spiral affair The 'bagwyn" was like
an antelope, but with goats horns and
the tail of a horse; the basilisk was
like a cockatrice. but had a dragons
head at the end of it's tail, and the
cockatrice was a creature with the
wyverns body, but the head of a
cock.
But there Is a more serious interest
aside from the artistic, picturesque
and mythically geological. The study
of heraldry is a necessary part of his
tory, and it reaches far back almost
to the beginnings of savage tribal life,
as Mr.. Davenport points out in his
general introduction. He finds it's be-
ginning in the tribal totem, or the
wearing of some distinctive family of
tribal mark, by the most primitive
savages, worn SO that friends and
foes might be easily distinguished.
Probably at first it was tattooed or
painted on the warriors skin; later
upon his weapons, and when he ac-
auired a shield the distinguishing de-
vice naturally was placed upon 1T as
the most conspicuous spot. But 1t is
not until the wearing of armor be-
came general that elaborate heraldry
was evolved, though the process had
gone far at the time of the Bayeux
tapestry, which gives the costumes of
the time of the Norman conquest.
From that point on it grew more and
more complex and important.

THE STAR PEOPLE. BY Gaylord
Johnson. The Macmillan Company.
T TERE is a gay children's book in
II a blue cover with black sill
houettes, a book not only for
children but for all who can be lured
by an enticing pathfinder to explore
new regions. New, that is. for near
sighted people and for those who think
the stars are only poets material, they
not being poets.
If you have no telescope in your
home try holding "The Star People"
in one hand. opera glasses in the
other and looking now at the first
page map, now at the sky. There
should be also third hand to hold an
electric torch, and preferably night
without a moon. The effort of peer
ing through the rosy afterglow of the
torch to separate one group OF sparkles
from another is. immense fun, and the
rhymes which Gaylord Johnson has
made UP to go with each important
constellation make remembering the
easiest part.
Every night for seven summer
nights Uncle Henry, Betty and the
twins go out on the beach to star
gaze, tracing diagrams of what they
see with pebbles on the sand. Arc

A Dictionary for Word-Lovers

| by Ernest Weekley. A. NJ, author of
the worlds most comprehensive ETY.
mological Dictionary of Modern Eng
lish, a work as much larger than the
historic edition of Skeat as the Eng
lish language has grown from a pre-
cocous youth to become the giant of
all languages in the multitude of its
words and in the versatility of their
uses.
| To Ernest Weekley has already been
credited the authorship OF THE Ro-
nance of Words" "Surnames," &C..
from which has been drawn much of
the material found in this his magnum
opus. Another important source en-
ployed by the author was that monu-
mental lexicon of the ages, MUIR
rays New English Dictionary" whose
method he has followed, to degree,
showing the historic evolution of
words, their literal and figurative def
nitions in different periods. The vo-
cabulary itself has been, broadly speak
ing, taken from the concise Oxford
Dictionary and Cassell's New English
Dictionary.
Ernest Weekley is an Englishman
with a sense of humor. In spite OF his
interest in philology he has retained
his humanity. which runs through his
dictionary like a thread of gold One
is almost impelled to liken him in
spirit to-
Euripides. the human. with his drop
pings of warm tears,
And his touching of things common til
they rose to touch the spheres.
This chronological Dictionary is not
intended for philologists, but for word
lovers "Philologs" is the new pet
name applied to men and women who
have felt the charm and significance
of words and who, with sibylline zeal
love to plumb their depths.
The author has not hesitated to ex-
plain the etymology Of slang words
which although they may be unhon-
ored in one generation often become
the most trenchant literary express
sions of the next.
Slight attention is paid to definitions,
the emphasis being placed, naturally,
upon origins.
Ernest Weekley has won distinction
especially on account of his knowledge
of foreign languages. He has incor-
porated thousands Of foreign words
which are neither Norman-Frenchn nor
Anglo Saxon in origin. In addition to
these are many neologisms, inherited
from the great war, which the author
says may successfully resist that de-
mobilization of war words now actively
proceeding The Anglo-Indian vo-
cabulary of the British army. such as
IS used by Kipling, has also been drawn
upon freely. Not only common nouns
but names of persons are included.
Thus we learn, for example. why a
guy should be named after Guy
Fawkes.
Besides words, the author delves
into the history and interprets the
meaning OF phrases, such as take up"
olook out" &C. He answers not only
the questions when" and whence
hut "whsre." how" and why" He Is
like little Elsie, who upon seeing an
animal entirely strange to her asked:
whats that, Daddy?" And this Is
the rest OF the dialogue;
