SLAYERS OF TIL
|. TAYLOR TO HANG
HERE ON FRIDAY

Governor Olcott, upon his re-
turn here today from Seaside, in
dicated that he would not inter-
fere in the executions of Elvie
Kirby alias James Owens, and
John Rathie, which are scheduled
for Friday morning. Rathie and
Owens were convicted and SEN
fenced to hang for the murder OF
Sheriff Taylor in Umatilla county
in 1920.
Last January reprieyes were
granted Owens and Rathie in or
der that they might appeal their
cases to the United States su-
preme court. These reprieves ex-
pire at midnight Thursday.
Governor Olcott said today that
he had not received any official
information from Washington as
to whether the appeals had been
perfected there. Private adyiees,
however, indicated that the SUI
preme court has refused to review
the cases. The time for filing the
appeals expired June 21. Neither
Kirby nor Rathie has shown any
indications Of weakening, and In
recent conversations with peniten-
tiary officials expressed the opin-
ion that they exhausted all legal
means Of escaping the moose. They
consider communication of their
sentences to life imprisonment as
improbable.

Editor Of the Journal May
add a word on the subject Of Mrs.
Hoag's letter in yesterdays pa
per. showing that teachers as
well as parents have a solemn re-
sponsibility in building charae-
ter? Woe unto the teacher who
having assumed that responsible
ity tries To slip out from under
we all know her kind, the teach
er who does not because she Will
not, see wrong doing go on stead
lily from day to day and lacks the
courage to rebuke it. II fragrant
sin has been committed, just
watch her and see if she does not
lay it to the weak and defense
less, some child who has not
much prestige in the school. Take
the matter OF cheating, for in
stance. How is 1t that the big,
dull girl, who. God pity her, new
er receives anything but snubs
and sights, is the only one to be
caught at 1T, when the whole
school knows. and knows that the
teacher knows, that certain Of
her pets carry on systematic
copying and cheating every day
under her very eyes? All, there
isn't the slightest danger that
they will be detected. That In
struetor may have the apparent
respect OF her pupils, but deep
down in their hearts they know
her for the weakling and hypo-
critic that she is. All honor to the
teacher who had rather fail, than
succeed by using such policies!

So far in the history OF this sea
son Of the Ellison White chautau-
qua, this play has been drawing
the largest houses OF any Of the

GAINESVILLE, Racine, Superior, and
Wausau have one policeweman each,
and Madison has two.

their work and the history of the en-
ployment of policewomen in Wiscon-
sin is told in detail for the first time
in report on municipal Policewom-
en-" just prepared by Miss Sophia

one policewoman. By. July 1921,
policewomen had been appointed by

vices of policewomen, of the basis of
employment and relation to the police

Old Styles of Hairdressing.

Roughly speaking, through the
Twelfth, Thirteenth and Fourteenth
centuries the hair parted in the middle
hung in flowing tresses, like veil over
the shoulders and back. Some jigger
had to be worn to keep it in place.
Both men and women wore crowns or
"chapels." Crowns in those days didn't
belong only to kings and princes.
Anyone could wear them. In Venice,
in 1900. the hair was merely combed
out, braided and gathered in a, net.
But what "a net! 1t was worth a
kings ransom-or nearly. Petrarch's
Laura had golden hair twisted into
