Santa Barbara, one of the most beautiful, as well as the most famous of California's wor1d-famed resorts, is situated on the blue Pacific 100 miles from Los Angeles and 370 miles south of San Francisco via the coast line of the Southern Pacific. It bears the impress of four regimes-the Indian, Spanish, Mexican and American.
 Cabrillo was the first white man to gaze upon it's beauties-which was in the year 1542. Santa Barbara was one of the resting points on the old "El Camino Real" and the beloved Padre Junipero Serra selected it as the site for a Central Mission because of "its wonderful salubrity of eli mate, transcendent beauty of location and the fertility of its soil" This mission still stands and is one of the points of interest that no traveller to California should fail to visit.
 It is a far cry from the days of the old Mission Fathers to the present goth century of science and culture, but Santa Barbara has more than full filled the destiny which it's early founders so clearly foresaw. It is to- day a city of perpetual recreation in the midst of most marvellous pano- rama of mountains, sea and islands, comparable with the most beautiful resorts and wonder spots of the world.

BY MARGARET RoHE

NEW YORK, June 17.-In this nation syncopation simply is our meat. Most of the people that I know would rather jazz than eat. 1 will even go stIll further, stating what l think lots of folks since prohibition 'drather dance than drink. How they iiggle, writhe and wiggle while the saxo- phone makes them Quiver, shimny shiver to it's plaintive moan.
 Here flapper with dapper col lege youth will sway. There an ac- tress and a broker jazz the hours away. Tired B. NJ. with dashing typ ist, or wife perforce not his own but some one else's you suspect, of course.
 All find pleasure in each measure of the ragged tune. Hark, the cym- bals crash and jingle while the fid- dies croon. Father, mother, sister, brother, auntie, husband, wife, uncle, cousin, even granddad thinks this is the life.
 Yet it seems this jazz abandoned, frivolous and free, is menace to our morals. We should let it be. Hartley Manners preached it's dangers in a play last fall. Showed that almost every evils due to jazz, that's all.
 Now an awful thing has happened. If you don't watch out, you will get diarthrosistis if you jazz about. There's q show girl who has got it out Chicago way.

Taxation Acting
 as Prohibition in
 Overseas Nations

PRAGUE, June 17.-One glass of beer Is brewed in Czeehoslovakia today when three glasses were pro duced before the war The reason is heavy taxation, high prices for materials. and the high rate of ex- change on the local crown in the currencies of Germany, Hungary and Austria. The pre-war total was 13,000,0OO hectoliters; for this year it is estimated at about A., 000,0O0. Foreign exports has ceased; German brews are com peting with the home product; and a vast amount of barley is seeking a buyer.
 The price of fresh meat is so high in Czechosloval1ia that Ameri- can frozen, salted and canned meats are being sought to relieve the stringency. The government has called for the American pro- duct at prices 50 per cent lower than those prevailing for fresh meat.
 Various conditions conspire to keep up the price of local meat. Cattle from Poland and Denmark and hogs from Hungary and Ru- mania are prohibited on account of alleged infection; there are limited cold storage facilities in the coun- try, and but few cold storage cars on the lines to Hamburg. The government will attempt to regu- late imports to meet the local de- mand.

GIRL, PRINCIPAL
 IN TRAGEDY OF
 GOTHAM SUMS
Killed by Brother of Girl In Hospital Who Breads
 Facing Motherhood

NEW YORK, June 17-One boy dead, another facing the death chair for staying. and a little girl facing motherhood which she fears and dreads-thats how the curtain falls on New York's latest tragedy of the tenements.
 It was short act. but dramatic one.
 The characters were Rosie and Tom Harrison. brother and sister, and James Tierney.
 Tierney wronged Rosie. Tom told him to marry her. Tierney refused. Tom shot him.
 And Tom was right" Rosie de- clares. She is now at the city hospi- tai. awaiting the birth of her child.
 Afraid of Tierney
 'I did not love James Tierney," she sobs. "I was afraid of him, I hate him. He threatened me with a knife and frightened me so I couldn't call for help. If he treated me that way, he would treat other girls that way. He deserves to be dead.
 But Tom shouldn't die. He did what he thought was right-what was right He shot James Tierney not only for what he had done to me, but for what he would have done 10 other girls"
 In his cell. Tom said: 'I did just what any brother would do to fel- low who rretended to be his friend and then betrayed his sister-and q simple little girl like Rosie at that.
 T didn't know how things were until Sis went to the hospital. Then dad told me. 1 told Tierney he'd got to do the square thing by Rosie. He said he wouldn't have anything more 10 do with her and he called her nasty names.
 ''I saw red. I shot him went to the police and confessed all. l haven't seen a lawyer and I don't intend to. I've made a mess of things but what could fellow do under such circumstances"
 Foil and Tragedy
 Rosie hasn't had much in her Is years but hard work and tragedy. Her mother died when she was 12. That left Rosie to keep house for her father and care for the two younger children. It mean three meals a day, cleaning. and washing and ironing.
 That didn't leave much time for school or play. So it is no wonder she's undersized with a face old enough for a girl twice her years.
 No wonder she wants to give her baby away as soon as 1t is born. She's seen many babies down in that tene- ment section, and to her babies mean only more drudgery-and tragedy.

 Princess Marie has my congratu- lations. A gentler or more courteous man than King Alexander never en- tered my studio. And he's democra- tic, too."
 Another royal portrait made by Mademoiselle Resco was that of King Feisul, ruler of the Arabian kingdom of Irak-a real sheik. He came to her studio in his sheik costume of flowing robes and caftan.
 I've found that the greater men are, the easier sitters they make. Mademoiselle Resco says. A great celebrity is much less fussy than an unimportant person. Soldiers Patient
 I've painted many military men and they're really the best subjects They've been trained to obey and they'll hold a pose for any length of time with the greatest patience.
 Royalty is easy, too, but kings you know, should be flattered. States men are rather more nervous than others when they're sitting"
 Mademoiselle Resco's prize portrait of General Pershing will be formally presented to the French government by Edward L. Hearn, European com missioner of the Knights of Colum bus.
 Her portrait of Marshal Foch will hang in an official gallery with those of past marshals of France.

WHO WILL WIN-THE JAZZ OR GYPSY, IT IS HARD TO TELL. doesn't know the cure. When she hears Q saxy moaning she just has a spell. Anguish caused by notes of music, banknotes soon will Quell.
 Busted hearts and limbs and bank rolls lie in jazz's trail. Now then in ternational troubles are the latest wall. Bad enough If we had only kept our jazz at home, but it simply up and started far away to roam. Led by negro jazz musicians round the world it flew. Berlin, Paris, London, Shanghai, all are jazzing too.
 But in Budapest the Jazzbo struck an awful snag. Hungary and gipsy fiddlers simply won't stand rag. Negro bands with jazzy music have the gipsy curse. And in awful gipsy language curses sound much worse.
 Gipsies long have furnished music for all Budapest. Now they won't stand jazz invasions and they'll do their best to drive out the negro jazz CTS. They will beat the band with their zithers and zingaras, anything at hand.
 Who will win- the jazz or gypsy, it is hard to tell. Budapesters all agree, though, music war is-what Sherman said
 When you think of all the evils caused by jazz. oh dear, what you read of it in papers, also what you hear, don't you thing 'twould be a wiser and safer bet, if we changed our naughty jazzing for the minuet?

Find Defective Roof
Over Gymnasium In
Lewistown Junior High
.a1 10 The Tribune,

Special to The Tribune:
Lewistown, Feb, 19.-At satur-
day nights meeting of the city
school board, State Fire Marshal Il.
S. Mentrum was present and having
completed an examination of the
Junior high school, in course of con-
struction, outlined briefly what he
will present in written report later.
He stated that the roof over the gym
nasium part of the structure. which
projects back from the main building,
was defective and would be con
demned. 1t appears that the very
cold weather which prevailed when the
concrete work was done there af-
fected and weakened it, while the
requisite support under the beams Is
lacking. This work will have to be
constructed over again. at the cost
of the contractor. The board mem
bers expressed appreciation Of the
marshars report, which conceded with
the result of their own conclusions,
based upon personal investigation and
the reports Of the city inspector and
engineer.
