ELIMINATE FIVE.MILE
PAVING GAP BETWEEN
OLYMPIA AND SHELTON

The five-mile gap between the two
paving contracts now under way on
the Olympic highway between Olym-
pia and Shelton will be paved this
year by the two contractors now
working on the highway.
An agreement to this program,
which means the completion of the
paving between Olympia and Shelton
of all but eight miles on the Shelton
end, was reached yesterday between
the state highway department and
the Thurston county commissioners.
The cost will be approximately $780,
600, by taking advantage of the fact
that the contractors are already on
the ground with machinery and the
crews, the big preliminary expense
will be eliminated. The longer use
of the present detour which carries
travel between Olympia and Shelton
by way of McCleary, twenty miles
out of the beaten path, will also be
eliminated.
The Thurston county commission
ers cooperated in the plan to the
extent of using $4,000 in county
road funds to make the improvement
possible this year. The contractors
who will do the work jointly are S. A.
Moceri and Wood Bros. & Homei.

CUARANTORS ASSESS
THEMSELVES TO PAY
CITY LICENSE FEE

The guarantors of the 1921 Chau-
tauqua. at their final meeting last
night at the Hotel Olympian, assessed
themselves two dollars each to make
up the $40 needed to pay the license,
assessed by the city council. Some
members of the committee had
earlier offered to contribute more
than the amount assessed to keep
the chautauqua in Olympia SO that It
was unnecessary to make the assess
ment high enough to raise the entire
$1,000.
Rev. Frank B. Huffman, chairman
of the committee having In charge
the payment Of the license, asked to-
day that all guarantors make their
remittances to him Immediately to
eliminate delay in winding up the
affairs for the season. The money
for payment of the license was adj
vanced by J. M. Hit and the assess
ment money will be used to repay
Mr.. Hit.

of them for series Of years, as mem
bers of the several districts in the

these will undoubtedly continue to

These debates afford a great op-
portunity to the high school boys and
girls of the state to develop their
powers in the line Of augmentation
and to appear with ease and effective
ness before public audiences.
While all the schools throughout
the state have not been participating

have hitherto been serving the high
school debating teams of the state.

STATE GETS TITLE
SEVENTEEN MILLION
ACRES TIMBER LAND

The state Of Washington has Just
received title to nearly 1900 acres
Of valuable timber lands located in
Jefferson county, according to word
received by the state land department
from the federal department Of the
Interior. The tract comprises some
of the most valuable timber in the
state and is valued at approximately
$1,OOO,OOO. The lands were selected
in 1905, but because Of the so-called
Whitney decision made in 1902, to
the effect that the land department
had no right to make selections, the
state was unable to induce action on
the part of the government.
Commissioner Savidge of the de-
partment of public lands and Attor-
ney General Thompson about year
ago brought action in the state
supreme court and obtained the re-
versal Of the Whitney decision and
authority for the commissioner to
make selections. At the time this
decision was reached there were 1926,
900 acres, since then the state has
been given title to 100000 acres,
leaving 1900 acres Of the selection
still pending.
State Protests Oil Filings.
Approximately 5000 acres in JEFF
ferson county are being held up be-
cause of government oil filingc before
the department Of the interior and a
determined effort is being made to
secure this land for the state.
A feature of the states success in
procuring these lands, is the fact that
there are no other government lands
left of any value from which to make
the selections and had the state
failed to secure the title, the educa-
tional grants would have suffered a
permanent loss.
These lands are selected in lieu OF
losses caused by Indian reservations,
nature losses and other losses and
have nothing to do with the land
exchange agreement by which the
state is securing the half million or
more acres that had been kept in
forest reserves.

ENGLISH RING LACKS
STRONG HEAVYWEICHTS
BY DAVID L. BLUMENFELD

oy LA v IL ~ D6O 4u AS~|N A~>>A~
NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-The British
boxing public is engaged in its usual
misunderstanding for a white hope.
They will have to go on looking. Even
the brightest optimist in England
shakes his head sadly when the ques.
ton crops up.
England has not even the glimmer
Of white hope. Joe Beckett went
out like a moth in q candle before
Carpenter had scarcely shaken of
his dressing gown. Today, British
fans mention Beckett's name and
grin. The sporting editors over in
Fleet street are in quandary. 1--WE
can't get a picture of Champion Joe
standing up" they say. "All we get
are in the prone position"
Maybe that is q little unkind to
Joe Beckett, but 1t shows what the
British public think about their
champion. The funny thing is, that
there is not an Englishman in the
country who can beat Joe Beckett at
his weight. Moran did SO, 1t is true,
but popular as Pittsburgh Frank may
be over in England, he is not an
Englishman.
Jack Bloomfield. the Islington mid
dleweight, who is recognized in Eng
land as middleweight champion OF
Canada, nearly had Joe out and
asleep in an exhibition bout with
the twelve-ounce pillows" few
weeks ago, and no doubt Boy McCor-
mick could do the same to the cham
pion II Beckett would accommodate
him. Beckett wasn't born yesterday,
however, and as Bloomfield and Nc
Cormick are both middleweights he
is quite justified in laughing OF the
challenges which are flung at him by
these two boxers, both Of whom were
trained in America. So much for
Joe Beckett.
The Carpenter bubble has burst
London went quite off its head on
the day of the fight. British people
do not, funnily enough, take half the
interest in boxing that people do over
here. That will explain why they
thought the Frenchman to be a cross
between a wizard, hypnotist, an
Apollo, and prizefighter. Dempsey,
they knew little about and cared less.
They imagined that Carpenter would
get into the ring, bow. smile, remove
his silk kimono, calmly punch Jack
on the chin, and walk out of the
roped square again-champion Of
the world. Now, of course. they are
all puzzled, and the knowing ones
are saying: II told you So"
England has not a heavyweight.
She could have II she liked. There's
that great big boy Guardsman. Frank
Goddard, a boxer with the sleeping
in both hands-but he pre-
fers his farm. Then there is Tom
Cowler, more or less "all in, but
still useful. and sprinkling of young
fellows who mighe all be first-raters
il they would but train. The trouble
is, they won't. They spend their
spare time on the race courses, or in
billiard saloons when they might be

MAY GET
NEW CERTIFICATE
in TWELVE MONTHS

II twelve months have elapsed
since the state board of education
affirmed an order of the superinten-
dent Of public instruction revoking
a teachers certificate on the grounds
Of moral and personal unfitness, the
person whose certificate was revoked
Is entitled to another certificate,
according to an opinion issued by the
Attorney General to Mrs. Josephine
Corliss Preston, state superintendent
of public instruction., providing the
other necessary requirements are met
and the superintendent has no
authority to refuse to issue a new
certificate on the grounds of moral
character or personal unfitness as
evidenced by the order Of revocation
Of the former certificate.
The mode of procedure for the
denial of the right to teach to a
person morally unfit is expressly
fixed by statute. The county superin-
tendent of schools has the power to
refuse to register an applicants GER
tificate when it is presented for regis
train in his county IL he believes the
holder of such certificate to be
morally or personally unfit. The
order revoking the prior certificate
may be used by the county superin-
tendent as evidence, Of whatever he
may attach to it, in support of his
refusal to register the certificate. The
applicant thereupon has the right to
take his case by successive appeals
to the superintendent of public in
struction and the state board Of edu-
cation.
Proceeds of an insurance policy
on school house destroyed by fire
may be used by the district for the
purpose Of renting a school building
pending erection of new school, the
attorney general rules in another
opinion rendered to Mrs. Preston.
Care must be taken, however, that
warrants drawn on the building fund
for this purpose do not exceed the
amount received from the insurance
policy. as no other portion Of the
building fund is available for rental
purposes.
When an appeal is taken by an
aggrieved party from the decision OF
a county superintendent of schools to
the superintendent of public instruc-
ton. the responsibility Of perfecting
the record on appeal devolves upon
the county superintendent and the
expense Of such transcript is to
be charged to funds in that ONCE,
according to an opinion rendered to
the state superintendent Of public
instruction.
