ing Academy. to Mathilde McCor-
mick is announced"-and that about
a week after the American and
European press had been full OF the
story.
Wherefore. not without reason.
Max Oser is surprisingly ignorant OF
the world-hgure he became and the
sensation he created by the simple
fact OF his engagement to the grand
daughter OF the worlds richest man.
Nobody Is more surprised than
Oser by his sudden prominence in
the world outside Switzerland His
first intimation was when newspaper
men rushing from France. Italy and
Switzerland. descended upon Zurich
and followed the future bridegroom
all over Switzerland for an inter
view.
Unbelievable as II may appear. II
seems that Oser does not know the
vast extent OF the interests Of Ma
/ thilde's father-he does not even
know exactly what the International
Harvester Company is. When asked
n he knew about the Harvester
Trust. he replied. From its name ]
should suppose It TO be company
manufacturing agricultural imple-
ments.'
Neither does Oser appear to be
intimately acquainted with the fam
lily connections Of his future bride
or their standing in American life
In referring 10 an uncle OF Mathilde'i
he was nuable to recall the name
with certainty.
81 think IL is Howard Colby-bui
I'm not sure OF the name. Anyws,
they sent us congratulations on oui
engagement"
As far as the divergence In age'
IS concerned. Oser does not think Il
particularly extraordinary for a mar
OF forty-four to marry girl OF six
teen. In Europe # is not unusua
for men OF from forty to fifty year.
Of age in moderate circumstances {,
marry young girls. And Oser ap
pears to be surprised that It excite
so much comment in the Unite,
States.

Water Supply

1. BY duplicating the present
pumping equipment in order that re-
pairs may be made to one pump with
out cutting off the main supply, a
charge of approximately 150 points
may be removed This will affect
several items under water supply.
Under the present arrangement, if
pump or motor should be put out of
service there would be but 55S,000
gallons of water available in the res
ervoirs which is just about one days
supply under maximum consumption
conditions, leaving none for fire pro.
lection purposes.
2. Some inside protection such as
Pyrenes should be provided for cleo
trical fires in the pump house.
3. If at least six additional hy-
drants are installed in the high value
district a charge of so points may
be eliminated. The location of these
hydrants to be determined by in
spection. These new hydrants should
be 6-inch hydrants.
4. If the 4-inch hydrants in the
high value districts are replaced by
6-inch hydrants, a charge of 40
points may be removed. These 4
inch hydrants could then be rein
stalled in the residential district.

MOVIE PROGRAM AS
PLAYGROUND BENEFIT
Proceeds Of SHOW at Liberty Theatre
Monday Evening VIII Go Toward
Fund for installation of
Play Apparatus

A benefit movie show, the proceeds
of which will go toward the fund
for the installation of adequate play
ground apparatus at the city park,
will be given at the Liberty theatre
Monday evening Special features
will be added to the regular program
in the way of vaudeville acts
The program for the improvement
of the park with play facilities for
the youngsters of the community
is fathered by Maynard-Price post
of the American Legion, and the city
council is assisting. The co-opera-
tion of the people of the entire COM
munity will be required to make the
campaign a success and people who
attend the show Monday evening will
assist in a highly worthy cause as
well as getting their moneys worth
from an entertainment standpoint.
The estimate of the cost of the
material required to make the play
ground equipment is $425 and local
dealers who have been interviewed
on the subject have expressed will
ingness to furnish the materials at
cost prices All of the work of build
ing and installing the apparatus will
be done by the Legion boys The
city council has already appropriated
$175 toward the fund and will pro-
vide adeqate lavatory facilities for
the park.
John j. Mcpherson, chairman of
the Legion committee in charge of
the playground campaign, states that
the purpose of the movement. aside
from the fact that the town needs
a playground is to get away, as much
as possible, from such affairs as that
of last Saturday, when a youngster
at play fell in front of a roller and
suffered broken leg and crushed
knee. Last year several boys were
hurt in auto accidents. A play
ground, though not a guarantee
against street accidents and acci-
dents while the youngsters are at
unoreanized play, will eliminate some
of them by aftording for the children
a safer playground. The playground
apparatus will not necessitate any
change in the trees at the park nor
will it detract from the natural
beauty of the place, but will make
possible safe and sane play for the
children under competent instruction.
The Legion has the backing of
many influential citizens in the
movement and all indications are
that Pullman will soon have a play
ground as well equipped as any in
the Palouse country
