GEM STATE TRACKSTERS
WORKING OUT IN GYM

MOSCOW, Idaho, Jan. 25.-CA. P.)
-Aspirants to track honors at the Uni
versity Of Idaho have began their pre-.
tparations for the 1921 season on the
cinder path. Between 20 and 80 men
'are now turning out daily for training
stunts at the gymnasium.
Most of the work done thus far has
been with chest weights and bar bells,
Coach Thomas Kelley having announc-
ed his intention Of putting his wen in
good all-around physical condition be-
fore track work properly begins. All
workouts have been brief and mono
particularly strenuous.
II is believed that Idaho will be un-
I sually strong in the weights and mid
die distances, but sprinters and hurdl-
ers must be developed if the team is to
he well balanced, track enthusiasts
declare.

PALM BEACH DICTATES
1921 FASHIONS IN GARB

PALM BEACH, Fla, Jan. 24.-(D
IPD-This winter playground Of she
rich is this year living up to its repu-
tation as a stage for early showing Of
the 1921 summer fashions. The fash
ion new year on the sands, in the ball
room and drawing rooms is in full
swing.
The hand that occasionally has
rocked the cradle stopped to don its
new spring frock. 1t was indicated
that:
1--short skirts are going to be
shorter
! 2-The transparent stockings will
be more transparent.
I 3-The uDdraped hat Will be cover
ted with silk and ribbons.
4--The rouRd-toed shoe will be
pointed
Wool mixtures, ginghams and
dimities will be favored.
6-The loud colors last year will be
come shrieks in the summer of 1921.
Women who thought the extreme in
dress had been reached decided that
skirts might be made an inch shorter
without undue exposure. The knitted
stockings will be a net stocking with
lots of air holes. The radicals gained
a victory in hat decoration with the
addition of numerous silk ribbon ac-
cessories. Comfortable round-toed
shoes were left behind for the more
dressy tight pointed ones, the gar
ments of wool mixture for spring wear
seemed to hold favor
The fashionable set of Palm Beach
drew no color line. Every brilliant
hue of the rainbow was represented.
Brown seemed to be the dominating
color, if there was one that could be
called dominant.
Among the lesser questions in
what we women are going to wear
for the next six months it was decid-
ed: The collarless neck will remain
co!larless and the already short sleeve
is going to be shortened. One. par-
tcularly striking bodice with fichu
drapped over the shoulders in stvle
common in the days of 1876 drew at
tention. IT was made of fine batiste
ana lace and hung over the arms just
above The shoulders, leaving the lower
arm bare except for an onyx bracelet
on one wrist.
Among the other striking costumes
which have attracted attention were

Washington, juno 25.---When the
war was won, so many American
cities and villages wanted captured
German cannon and machine guns
that 1T looked as though Uncle Sam
would have to order a lot of them
from Krupps to give away. 1t now
develops that this demand for souve-

more practical things, which has

these to the states is a scandal" Sen
ator Wadsworth, chairman Of the SEN
ate military affairs committee declar-
ed
~ may" be utterly alone in my
opinlon,"" Wadsworth said, ''but this
sdebauch of the free distribution OF
government property has gone far
enough, / can well understand the
appetite that is aroused in a state

derstands that the war department

is "a law authorizing the secretary OF
war to turn those trucks over to
the agricultural department, free Of

they have to do is press the button
and the people interested in the
building or roads write and wire ask

AS result, Wadsworth said, the
war department is short In motor
