CLASS LEGISLATION.

One of the foolish things that the recent Legislature did
was to put Idaho banks in the class of those who could
plead lese majesty The legislature passed and the gov
signed bill making it felony to make derogatory
statements concerning the financial condition of any bank
and providing penalty The body of the bill reads
fOlloWs
ANY who shall wuly maHcouy circulate

Note that the statement does not have to be false IF
you get hot tip that bank is about to close and tell
friend that he may draw out his money then you

High Skirts, Low Prices.

l have my opinion as to the caus-
es of the present low price of cotton
which includes some political, some
commercial and some financial fea-
lures, but a friend OF mine recently
gave me his unique explanation,
and after some consideration | have
to regard 1t seriously. He explained
that cotton was more extensively
used for the production of women's
clothing than for any other purpose,
and that the shortened skirt is real
ly at the bottom Of the decline. How
ever, when 1t is considered how
many women there really are to use
cotton cloth, and how many dresses
and other garments the average wo-
man requires for one year and how
much difference yard or so of
cloth on each dress or garment
would make in the general demand,
1t Is an item that cannot be over
looked in calculating the reduction
in demand. Only a few years ago
1t was the fashion for skirts to near
ly reach the ground, and to be very
full.
When the difference in the
amount OF cloth required for the
average skirt of today and yester-
day is multiplied by 100,000,00O
the reduction becomes apparent
Another consideration is the fact
that women are demanding more
and more garments to- be made OF
silk, whereas 1t has not been very
long since only the very wealthy
could afford silks. Fashion has play
ed havoc with more than one mark
ct in this world, and 1t may have
more to do with the cotton situation
than the economist thinks at the
present time.-From the Washing
ton Post.

and public dances have served as
about the only form of amusement
so long that parents are beginning
to look for some more desirable sub
stitute. Teachers and school board
members here and elsewhere have
been talked to by both parents and
students and have been asked to
provide some form of desirable en-
tertainment by means of supervised
parties. They have asked that
dancing be allowed as part of the
entertainment. Dancing, like some
other forms Of amusement, seems to
be condemned because of its abuse
rather than because IT is bad when
properly done. 1t has become al
most universal here and is encour-
aged by great majority of parents.
Even some of those parents who
condemn 1t seem to allow their stu
dents to dance. IL dances are con-
Quoted as our parents saw them
twenty or thirty years ago little
criticism would be heard.
After careful consideration the
school boord and superintendent
agreed to certain restrictions and
decided to conduct few parties dur
Ing the remainder OF the year. They
are to be entirely under control of
the school with teacher in charge
as chaperon. Only regular high
school students are to take part,
The only visitors allowed are to be
parents who are not only invited
but urged to be present any time
they may care to attend. The
dances that have become notorious
the last few years will not be al
lowed. Cheek to cheek and other
objectionable positions are also
banned students were instructed
before the first party and as result
conducted themselves very proper
ly. Attendance at the parties is
optional with parents and dancing
by the student is optional with him.
We will have games and not con-
fine all of the entertainment to
dancing. We know that a few are
opposed to this form of entertain
ment but hope that they will be fair
in their criticisms and take into
consideration our motives for try

Newspapers have had great deal
to say about the billboard, how 1T
mars the landscape and interferes
with the attractiveness OF roads that
would otherwise be Noted for scenic
beauty. In the cities THE billboard
nuisance is being curbed by legisla-
ton. Overseas there lis an active
campaign against the nuisance,
now more pronounced than ever.
In the west the nuisance is not as
rampant as In the more densely pop
ulated east, and as yet the natural
beauties OF Washington are not
SCARED and married to any consider
able extent by this type OF advertise
ing.
Two laws have been passed In Eng
land to curb this nuisance. One pro-
yides that no billboards may be err
ected at pspot where it will inter
fere with a view. The other pro-
hibits signs against the skyline.
France has taken the eMpedient OF
taxing the signs to death. The
rate increases with the size OF the
billboard. imagine THAT Is the only
way we will get rid of them in this
country.
City, state and national laws are
necessary. In the campaign OF the
federation 1t has been found that
civic associations, particularly those
of women, seem the only organi2a-
tions with sufficient courage to
tackle the problem. Through their
aid legislation has been obtained
in Cincinnati, and Memphis and ST.
Louis are planning similar steps.
Writing In the New York Evening
Post Joseph Pennell, representing
the American Federation of Art,
had this to say:
you can not go anywhere with
out running into mile after mile of
billboards, most of them advertising
everything that Is useless. I took
three trips to New York within the
last week and saw new signs on each
trip. They eliminate at Princeton
Junction, where the traveller may
see no fewer than 80, all arranged
on a semicircle.
ARTISTS and others who prefer
the beauties of nature to these vul-
gar, faring displays, have been
pointing out for years that they are
destroying and debauching the ma
tional taste. But progress against
them is so slow that it has occurred
to me to make the attack from an
other angle

matters of this kind the wishes and
welfare of the majority must pre-
vail under American principles OF
fair play. AS school we are try
ing to do our best for the welfare
Of our young people, Since we have
started this practice. however, we
shall he disappointed II students do
not refrain from going to undesir-
able public dances and from dane

condition can be brought about by
the help of the parents.
ATHLETICS-Our basketball sea-
son has just closed successfully.
With only eight boys of first team
or even second team ability we have
won every game with our high
school opponents ON our home floor
and played the Boise High School
for the district championship in the
Caldwell tournament. In this
tournament eight teams competed
and our boys remained in until de-
feated by Boise in the final game.
Much credit is due to the boys and
to Mr.. Simpson their coach, Our
crowds have been orderly and have
allowed the officials In charge OF the
games to ofiieiate without inter-
ference. This should do much to
help remove an unfavorable reputa-
which we still have because of some
unfortunate occurrences on the bas-
ketban floor few years ago. We
were left off the schedule OF our dis
trict last fall because someone cal
led the committees attention to the
unpleasantness referred to and Sc
cured games this year only after
considerable effort.
The rest of the year will he taken
up with some baseball and track
work. The boys, under Mr.. Simp-
sons direction, have gotten the
grounds into good condition and are
now praeticing. 1t will be practi-
cally impossi BILE to play games with
other schools because of the ex-
pense involved but interclass games
will be played and cause keen COM
petition. We plan to have an in
terclass and grade track meet again
and much interest Is expected. Good
athletics help to develop pride
In boy regarding his athletic skill
and teach him to care for his body
and health. Outdoor games also
help to work off surplus energy and
make the blood circulate. Brighter
minds result and scholarship i'm
proves In the majority Of cases.
When a boy is in the open air work
ing or playing a good clean game
there is little danger of his being
into trouble of of planning and
kind of mischief that will injure
others or himself.

saying that the student was too Ill
to be in school when we knew from
observation and reliable reports that
they had been promenading the
streets or even entertaining beaus
ait home. Most Of this type OF stu
dents have dropped their high
school work. This was for the best
OF the high school and has helped
us to concentrate on the serious
minded students who are left. Some
other undesirable phases remain
which can be eradicated IL we per-
severe. Gtndents should seek a high
school education for the sake OF
learning and for the good 1t will do
them In their Mfe work. Too many
students 60 to school because they
are forced to by their parents and
because 1T is the regular thing to do.
They fail in part Of their high school
work during the first three years
and then expect to try to do a whole
years work the fourth year and
make up for all that has been lost
turing their three previous years.
A student who has trained himself
to carry only part OF load ia not
prepared to carry a double load the
last year. The result is usually
failure to graduate, disappointed
parents and blame laid on the school
by the student who has failed to
make the most Of his opportunities
in his first three years OF high
school. Parents of underclassmen
can help their students and the
school also by calling attention to
poor marks when report cards come
home. We need more appreciation
on the part OF students OF the VAL
ue OF an education and OF the efforts
which their parents are making to
keep them In school.
SUPERVISED PARTIES - The
question OF entertainment for stu
dents OF high school age has been
a pressing one for years. Movies
