Board looks for results and for the
proper conduct OF the dormitory.
The expense OF this proposition IA
met In several ways, but the reneral
loea Is Tor students occupying these
accommodations to pay a proportion
ate share OF the bare operating ex-
penses. Students. II they are few In
number, will do the cooking, waiting
on table and laundry work under the
direct charge and direction, and with
the actual help of the matron. When
the number increases to q point to
make II possible. some competent
person will be employed to do part of
this work. Any work done by a
student outside of his own room will
be considered at its proper value and
applied as part payment Of his ex-
pense. Students In many places bring
products from their homes, such as
vegetables. meats, potatoes. jelfIes.
canned goods. etc., for which they
are given due credit In money toward
their expense.
One of the problems In western
towns, such as Eureka. is to secure
accommodations for teachers. Good
teachers cannot be secured and held
unless they can live comfortably. This
we all know has been one of our
problems here. Teachers will be Of
fered the opportunity of living in the
dormitory, and will be charged the
same rate for board and room as they
would be obliged to pay elsewhere.
This revenue would then be applied
to the dormitory expense. It has been
found through experience by the
county high school boards in other
States that the parents were more
than pleased with results secured by
the dormitory system.
The question naturally occurs to
those who have no children Of high
school age. why they should vote for
these bonds. You have already re-
ceived your education at the expense
of the public. II you did not take ad-
vantage of the offer 1t was your loss

This proposed building solves your
problem. II you are a bachelor, be q

Now what will this cost the indi.
vidual taxpayer? Is It going to cost
him an amount that will be burden
or will 1t be but a nominal sum which
will not be a burden and which he
will be more than willing to pay to

girls, going to school in an up-to-dats
building, clean, sanitary, safe, and
enjoying the privileges enjoyed by
the boys and girls of other counties!
Education Is the greatest thing In
our power to give to our children
Just because some Of US received our
meagre education under difficulties il
no reason why we should SO handicap
the present generation, and they are
being handicapped according to pres

SWEDEN DOES OhE-THIRD
WORK BY ELECTRICITY
Power Installation Still Increas-
ing With Rapid Strides in
Scandinavia.

Electricity has conquered one-third
of the entire cultivated area of Swe-
den, according to the latest official
reports. ~. 4N=E- ~. ~...~-
If Sweden continues electrifying at
the present rate, it will only be a
few years till almost the whole coun-
try will be run by electricity. ~.
Most of the farms within the cleo
trited area are now tapping the new
source of energy, and nearly all the
power used in the daily labor on these
farms is derived from the high-power
lines which span whole sections of
the country.
Large power stations deliver most
of the electric energy used in the rural
communities but in many places the
farmers themselves have installed tur-
bines and built private power stations,
Harvesting for this purpose swift
streams and small waterfalls on their
own properties. Those enterprises,
however, are generally cooperative.
A great deal of the most arduous
farm labor is performed by electrically
driven machinery at cost far below
the cost of machines propelled by
steam or horsepower, or of hand labor
Water is pumped for cattle by cleo
tricity, threshing machines are driven
by electric current, timber is sawed
by motor power, and farm hands are
no longer ordered to cut firewood by
hand because it is cheaper to have
even that labor done by electricity.
Candles have almost disappeared.
In many cases grain is dried and
cleaned by being passed through elec-
trically driven hot-air tanning ma
chimes. 1t is not uncommon to find on
the larger estates electric elevators
which lift entire wagon loads Of hay
or grain and dump them where desired
in the barns.
One Swedish estate owner has in
stalled an electrically operated irriga-
ton system whereby a large field can
be watered in times of drought. 1t, is
now only matter of short time till
plows and harrows will be propelled
by electric power.

GREAT BARGAINS TO Be
HAD IN ODESSA SHOPS
Persian Rugs Sell for $40 and
Good Oil Paintings for
So or So.

Odessa is, and will be for a few
months, the paradise of the bargain
hunter. A leather valise sold in Paris
or London for $50 may be had here
for Sc.
Persian rugs go begging at $50 to
$40, rugs that in Persia would sell for
$50, while the seller swore by his faith
ers memory that he was robbing his
family of daily bread.
Paintings by good artists sell for 50
or @ SD with a frame thrown in worth
$40 or $40. Silver tableware sells
for 5 to 10 cents per ounce.
A foreigner settling here for bust
ness reasons may rent a house for $50
a year, and possibly buy an indefinite
lease on it for $500. The furniture, ex-
cepting the table dishes, may be had
for another $500; but, if there are any
repairs he must pay western Euro
pean wages for labor.
The reasons for these low prices Of
articles are that many of them were
stolen, that there isn't much trade, and
the original owners are selling off all
their home treasures for food.
To keep alive family Of five it
takes 100000 rubles, or 50 a day,
and the prices of food jump as the
ruble drops in value. .~...~.
Trade has not been so brisk here
as in Moscow, as there are fewer
strangers to buy: Fewer Russians
can get into the city because the trains
run only few times d month, owing
to lack of fuel. 49,.
At that, shops are opening daily,
as the new economic policy of the
Moscow government is applied. Dia-
monds and objects of value are covert
ly shown to prospective purchasers in
these shops, the dealers still being
in fear of the old law against specu-
lation and free trade.
The city is full Of thousands Of
young men and old who speak and
write English, French and German,
men, who in the old days of commerce,
were employed about the port or with
American and other foreign firms deal
ing with the interior. These men;
are glad to get work insuring 500
worth of food a month.

Would Not Give. Up Postal Missive
on Which 10 Cents Was Due.
A story offered by Charles w. Jeffer-
son, postmaster of fredericksburg, Va,
is vouched for by Sewell Noble and
concerns the sagacity of the formers
pet terrier Rex.
Jefferson has trained the animal so
that if some one across the street
from the postoffice calls for his mail
he places it in the dogs mouth, points
to the recipient and the dog trots
over to deliver it.
Not long ago Noble availed himself
Of the free delivery being across the
street, and Rex ambled over with one
letter in his teeth, but instead of Civ
ing it to the owner as usual he backed
off and groWled when Noble tried to
take the missiye
Puzzled, the postmaster went across
to the recalcitrant dog, only to find
that, without noticing it, he had given
the terrier a special delivery letter on
which was due 10 cents. On Mobiles
throwing dime on the sidewalk, Rex
promptly yielded the letter as his mas
ter retrieved the fee.

EXTEND AIR ROUTES
All Nations Making Effort to De-
veiop Civil Aviation.
British Observer Says 1922 Appears
to Be Crucial Year in the Exten-
sion Of Commercial Airways-
Air Travel Popular.

London.-All countries are making
great efforts to extend their CONNER
cial airWays this year, writes Maj. W..
Il. Blake, the aeronautical correspond
ent of the Daily News. Indeed, 1922
appears the crucial year for civil avn
alton. -
In addition to new air service in
England from London to Manchester
and from London to Ireland, two new
companies have been approval by the
air ministry to operate continental
services. OF these Daimler Hire, Ltd
Will operate between London and
Paris with possible extension to
Switzerland, whilst between London
and Brussels the Aerial Routes syn
dictate, Ltd, proposes to operate.
The 1nstone Air line and Handley
Page Transport will continue their
services to Paris, whilst one or the
other will probably start operations on
the Dutch route.
France, in addition to maintaining
her present services to London, Brus-
sells, Amsterdam, Czechoslovakia,
Warsaw, Morocco, etc., has arranged
to open up the route from Prague to
Constantinople via Budapest and
Bucharest. This will be a branch of
the Paris Warsaw service, the tunc-
tlon being Prague. A second route to
ConstantinOple also will be opened up
by the company, which at present op-
crates the service from Bordeaux ou-
louise. Montpelier. This service will be
definitely extended to Marseilles and
Genoa, and will continue to CONSTANT
nople If circumstances warrant a
further extension.
Denmark has recently sent a mis-
sion to Germany with a view to inves-
tigating the possibilities of purchasing
large passenger-carrying machines for
the opening up of various Scandinavia
an routes.
Portugal-which so far has dis
played little practical interest in COM
mercial f1ying-is opening up a service
from Lisbon to Paris via Valladolid
and Bordeaux. The capital of this
company is two million escudos, at the
normal rate of exchange about 1876, 900.
This will, of course bring London into
direct aerial communication with Lis
bon.ss Other Portuguese air services
contemplated are from Lisbon to
Oporto; from Lisbon to Madrid; from
Lisbon to Faro. @.-...
Additional links in the European
system which are being opened up by
various companies will enable the
aerial traveller to proceed from Lon
don to Algeria via Paris and Marseilles
and from London to Morocco via
Paris, Toulouse and Barcelona. The
new Portuguese route will give a d.
rect service between London and Lis
bon and the new French service will
give a direct route from London to
Constantinople. ~-~..- - -
England Is already linked up by air
with Brussels, Amsterdam, Copenha-
gen and Berlin, SO that there are now
very few European capitals which can
not be reached by regular air services

Renton, Wash.-Residents Of
Cedar Falls, a mountain town
forty miles from Puget sound,

the entire place moved eleven

abandonment of the town site.
It has been found that the clay

dations are erected lies In
slanting rock strata of extreme

nothing but the weight of the
clay subsoil to keep it balanced.

was his head pinioned. The car came
