Benjamin Franklin was permitted to
keep his last crop OF laurels longer
than most statues. Although 1t was
by reason of his very many illustri-
GUS qualities that his statue became a
landmark In Park row, it was particu-
larly because of his position as the
patron saint of all those who hold
thrift as a cardinal virtue that he was
adorned some weeks ago with more
wreaths than any Hawaiian ever man
aged to hang on himself.
He kept them, too. until they were
Of absolutely no more use. The day
they were put up people travelled
from all five boroughs to gaze at the

PROPER EGGS FOR MATCHING
California College Institutes New
Project for Improvement Of
Poultry FIocks.

For the Improvement of poultry by
careful selection of breeding stock, the
poultry department Of the division of
extension work of the California Col
lege Of Agriculture has Instituted a
new project with the hatcherymen of
Alameda county. Previous to this
time, the assertions of the egg dealer
were the only guide to those who
bought eggs for Matching and dealt in
baby chicks, as to the quality of the
eggs they were getting. There was OPP
portunity for frequent abuse or conf
dence In the business.
Under the present plan about 10000
birds have been inspected by poultry
experts, and those which have met the
requirements decided upon for weight,
egg production, size and shape OF eggs,
and other points, have been accepted
as eligible for the production OF eggs
for Matching. Hatcherymen have
agreed to use no eggs except those
from tested focks.

The male is half the flock. Without

however, to use poor male than 1t is
a poor female, for the reason that from
one male bird greater number OF
chicks carrying his blood will be
Matched than where poor female is
allowed to remain in the flock.

MANUAL TRAINING EXHIBIT.

An exhibit of manual training work
was on display in the shop Tuesday
afternoon and evening and was in
spected by very large number of pa
irons and friends of the school. The
display covered work from the sixth
grade to the senior year of the high
school. All of the pieces made dur
ing the year were on exhibit with the
exception of several taken home early
in the year which could not be re-
turned in time. One of the features
was the turned work, which was Of a
very high grade and which was COM
mented on very favorably by large
number. These pieces included nut
and fruit bowls, tTinket boxes, shaw
ing mirrors, table lamps, hair pin re-
ceivers, dalning eggs, card trays, and
other small articles. A complete in
ventory of all the various pieces
on display would be out of place but
the sixth grade airplanes were en-
Enthusiastically looked over by all the
smaller visitors.
Some cushioned footstools by the
eighth prade and the bookholders by
the seventh grade, were deserving Of
more than passing mention.
In the high school cabinet work a
wide variety of pieces were to be seen
made from most of the standard cab
met woods and in several finishes.
The natural finishes predomihated in
the hard woods, paint being super
fous when the natural beauty of E
grain eXcels anything that can be pro
duced by hand granting. Most of the
oak work was fumed, this being done
in the fuming tank built in the shop
for that purpose last spring by the
high school boys as part of their
regular work. Among the oak pieces
were easy chairs, magazine racks,
chests and kerchief boxes and an in
laid flower stand. The holly inlay
was used in gum walnut, mahogany
and oak, making both novel and pret-
ty effects. Two cedar chests trim
med with copper were center of at
traction. A breakfast table in gran
ite gray caused several ladies to in
quiTe as TO the possibilities Of buying
it. Many articles could have been
sold had they been for sale. Only
furniture made to order was sold dur
ing the year
Every piece shown was first drawn
to scale in the drawing room before
the stock was cut. The best shop
practice in joinery and surfacing has
been required. Quantity work has
been discouraged whenever quality
would be sacrificed. While the work
shown was not in many cases Of as
high quality as that of d high class
cabinet maker, many instances OF
splendid work stood out and demon
strated what beginners can do with
tools when they make honest at
tempts at perfection.

FRESHMAN PICNIC.

The Freshman class Of the L. H. S.,
chaperoned by Mrs. Town, Mrs. APP

class advisor spent most enjoyable
day at ingalls, Creek last Saturday.
They arrived on the grounds Just
in time to help the forest ranger, Mr..
Henry Wavland, erect a new flag pole.
An impressive patriotic ceremony
followed. The class assembled around
the post and after giving the flag sa-
Lutte, sang The Star Spangled Banner,
just as Old Glory was unfurled to the
breeze.

predicted, the future success of the
Freshman class is assured.

Mrs. W. w. Elmer in her usual place
as cashier; and it was very nice re
past.
The campsite was reported to be
finally quite completed, the electric
lights having been installed
A resolution was offered by L. r.
Hart and passed. This resolution of
fers the cooperation of the club with
the city council in bettering the roads
in and about town, so that tourists
may find their way into town made as
pleasant as possible Particular at
tention was directed to the road from
the Chumstick bridge to the viaduct.
Comment was made upon the in
stallation of the fire siren, and the
statement was made that the cost of
wiring if it be placed on the raise
north of the railroad yards, would be
about $500. The matter was referred
to the committee for investigation
and to ascertain whether or not a saw
ing might be effected by placing it
elsewhere.
A letter was read by Secretary
Constable from Supt. Doyle of the
Great Northern, relative to the water
at the depot, which is said by the
state board of health to be "pol-
luted." This matter has been before
the club with the idea of removing
this libelous notice from the depot, as
strangers will evidently believe that
the water of the city is impure,
whereas the water in question is
from the wooden tank maintained by
the railroad company for supplying
tenders of its engines. Perhaps in
the course of human events CITY wat
er will be made available at the de-
pot and the signs "polluted'' re-
moved, but our state health depart
ment seems to have no other interest
in the matter than to place signs. The
secretary is taking the matter up
with the state board.
The matter of celebrating the 4th
was discussed. That the city ought
to celebrate seemed to be the senti-
ment Of many though no one seemed
anxious to take the lead.
