Teachers for Next TERM

pullman schools for the past three
wears. will again be at the head Of
the local school system next year,
according to ANNOUNCEMENT by the
school board yesterday. Under the
regime of superintendent Henry the
local schools have advanced to high
state of efficiency, and the announce
ment that he has decided to remain
in Pullman next year will be greeted
with delight by school patrons and
citizens interested in the develop

Similar satisfaction will be found in
the announcement that both Princi-

will be included insthe list of admin
istrative officers again next year.
The school board, in it's efforts to
retain the present satisfactory sys-
TEN intact, reelected all of the pres

more enticing offers from other
schools. These are Mrs E. G. Wood,
Miss Nellie Greene and Miss Mabel
Slayton of the high school, Miss
Grace Moore of the Edison school
and Miss Florence Pears of the
Franklin school.
Aside from the administrative

J. F. BOILER TALKS
ON ''CLEAN LIVING
Lecture on Physical Cleanliness and
High Moral Standards Followed
by Pictures Showing Terrible
Results of Moral Laxity

Before the members of Evening
Star Lodge No. 26, Knights of Pyth-
las, and a number of senior high
school boys, J. f. Boiler, head of
the department Of physical education
and thletics at the State College,
gave an impressive and educational
lecture on Clean Living" last Mon
day evening, The meeting was the
first of series of monthly educa-
tiOnal meeting to be conducted by
the lodge and persons who were in
attendance are unanimous in the
opinion that it was one of the most
worth while lectures ever given in
Pullman The lecture was followed
by three reels Of motion pictures
showing the terrible effects of loose
morals.
During the program several num-
bers were given by the Pythian quar-
tet, which includes Frank Lowery,
John Wilson, Villas Watts and w. V.
Finch, with Mr. Sandusky at the
piano, and Mr. Watts gave several
feature solos. The meeting closed
with the singing of America"
Extracts from Mr.. Boilers lee
ture are as follows;
I am glad to come before you this
evening to stress the Importance of
clean living. 1t is safe to say that
we are all more or less familiar with
the fundamental laws of hygiene, but
it is also safe guess that we are
not willing or we are absolutely in
different to living up to our informa-
tion in this matter. One of the first
things we are taught in the lower
grades. if we have not been taught
it in our homes, is to keep our
teeth clean, and yet how many of
us attend to it as we should? If we
do it daily, I fear it is often done
with lick and a promise. And yet
what is more beautiful not to men
tion it's important hygienic effect,
than to have a set of clean and white
teeth?
Take the matter of eating. We
know the dangers of over eating, Of
eating between meals. of eating be-
fore retiring. Judging by the way
restaurants and confectionery stores
are patronized by the public there
are a great many who follow their
inclinations rather than live up to
their knowledge.
Take the matter of rest for in
stance. We all know that there is no
restorative like sound undisturbed
sleep. And yet it doesn't take much
of social affair to tempt youth
from cutting down the eight
hours necessary according to our best
authorities. for the keeping of our
hodies fit. The greatest trouble OF
our day is that the nature OF so
much of the entertainment OF our
Young people is such that they are
aroused to such a degree that they
can't sleep even after they do go to
bed. We as Americans live altogeth-
er too fast, crowd too much into our
working hours and curtail our hours
of sleep so much that we feel the en-
croachment Of old age altogether too
early.
The nature of my work as trainer
of men for our athletic teams has
given me an opportunity TO appreci-
ate clean. moral men Not only be-
cause men who live clean lives and
have high moral ideals are the most
satisfactory athletes. but because

Through a
Wonan's Eyes
"Out of the No,Uhere, Into the
Here"
By JEAN NEWTON

Where did you come from, baby DEAR
Only a few short months ago we did
not know you-and now we date our
lives from the day you came.
We hang upon your smile-your look
Of recognition sends a thrill to our
hearts. No king or queen that reigns
has the power so to favor us, no
graciousness of mighty monarch can
so delight US.
Lovely woman, a thing Of beauty
and a joy forever .''--ah, the poet who
sang that. what would he have said
had he had you?
What woman ever had a silken vel
vet skin like yours, downy freshness
SO smooth to touch, such bliss to kiss?
Or such wrist-all little dimples
that are like pools of pink and white
ness-no painter and no sculptor could
depict 1t. Even your toes-like tiny
rosebuds blooming from all your creamy
sweetness-are a tribute to great
natures handiwork.
But the greatest ecstasy about you,
lovely baby, Is your perpetual happi-
ness. The way you smile your sweet
content. your approval Of the world,
your readiness to laugh and coo your
ehervescent JOY and well being 20 all
who look upon you. 1t is the bright
ness you shed upon a sometimes dreary
world. 1t is the ray Of sunshine that
your are, in the drabbest gloom so ire
sistible--that is the gift for which we
most cherish you.
' And that you may forever keep It,
lovely baby, we not only pray but vow
to do our part that the world which
so far has shown you only Kindness and
benignity shall never turn away its
smile.

THE HOME

Household furniture is intended to
serve only three physical purposes.
First. It Is meant to sit or lie upon
second. 1t Is meant to put things on
and, third. 1t Is meant to put things
in. All furniture belongs to one or
another Of these three classes. Certain
pieces, however, combine two of these
functions. Among such pieces the
chest is one Of the most important,

CHAPTER XIV
Cro1Uing Mistrust

THE days went by slowly and I
L found myself under a terrific nerve
strain. Every morning I awoke with
the hope that Norman would say some-
thing to me, that there would be
break Of some kind in the situation
between us, but he never mentioned
Alice's name. and. In spite Of myself,
nnguished over it.
imagined all kinds Of things. Was
he seeing Alice perhaps at times during
the day when he was away from me!
Wasn't she perhaps meeting him at
lunch time. or for afternoon tea! The
thought was agony, and l began to
think Of Hilton as a trap to hold me
to the routine Of my life. If he had
talked of her naturally, as he talked Of
our other friends, I should have lost
my suspicion, but his persistent ST.
lence and my own resolution not TO
appear jealous and prying made the
situation Almost intolerable.
Alice had the advantage OF me In
so many ways. For one thing. there
was her work. A woman who gets
out into the world and competes with
men seems to have certain advantage
over the wife who does nothing--that
is. II she keeps her feminine charm in
addition to drawing her salary.
Alice did fashion articles for one OF
the big dailies, and made very good
money at it. She kept place In
town, studio of sorts, where she had
her typewriter and Ma most of her
work, and this enabled her to serve
ten 10 her friends without putting them

The Girl Behind the Counter Has
N Her Own Difficulties to Cope With

Her Decision

There are women. you know. who

money.
a necessary part of being wealthy.
such persons believe, is proving 1t by
being very arrogant and naughty like
the ugly sisters in the fairy tale.
Of course, that isn't true, and they
have to pay for their ignorance sooner
or later by receiving the same kind Of
treatment from others.
THE customer who doesn't know just
L exactly what she wants is Just as
wearing as the one who knows too well
what she wants.
She will listen to suggestions and
accept hints Of various kinds for an
hour at time.
She will allow the saleswomen to put
herself heart and soul into waiting upon
her without exerting herself in the least
20 meet her halfway.
And an hour of this will take the
strength and heart out Of the girl be-
hind the counter more thoroughly than
a whole day of ordinary work.
The woman who changes her mind Is
exasperating, too.
She decides upon what she wants,
quickly enough. and without any aid
from the salesgirl.
But then, just after the slip is made
out, all its complications arranged and
its carbon slid aside. she says suddenly,
We'll, now let me see-do you have
them in white? Perhaps that would be
better than the black. May l see
those?"
After looking carefully at the black
and deciding finally that she likes the
white better she Unexpectedly changes
her mind and decides not to get them
at all
THAT'S something, too.
L Oh, the day Of girl behind the
counter Is not a rose -bordered path in

Ca,, You Tell?

Why II Is Called a Honeymoon

The word honeymoon, commonly ap-
piled to the first few weeks after a
couple have become man and wife, orig.
inally covered the first month or
moon after marriage, but has no.
reference whatever to the month or
moon In the sense that particular lapse
of time Is meant.
The word honeymoon originated from
an old custom common amonR newly
married couples in the time OF the an
cient Teutons. A certain wine made
from honey was served at the wedding
feast and in the days Immediately after.
Following our present day weddings. Il
Is the general custom of the bride and
groom to take trip away from home
and friends, either Of short or long
duration. This is called the honeymoon
regardless of the length of time. But
In the days when the practice originated
1t was the custom for the newly welded
pair to remain at home, and they were
supposed to be prepared at any time
during the first month following their
marriage to receive the visits Of friends
and relatives, and to serve to them at
such times this wine Of honey.
The wedding veil Of our modern
brides, thrown back from and exposing
the face, was not the early conception
Of the wedding veil. In the early days
the face of the bride remained com .
pletely covered during the ceremony,
and was not shown until the service had
been completed. The Greek and Roman
brides wore large yellow wells which
completely covered them from head to
foot. The custom of using small veil
was brought to Western Europe by the
Crusaders, and 1t has been claimed that
Mary Tudor wore the first small veil
in England when she became the wife
of James of Scotland.
