SENSIBLE SHOES WORN

improvement in the type of shoe
worn by University of Washington
women has been effected since the
physical education department intro
duced the idea OF common-sense
shoes for campus wear Sturdy,
low-heeled, high-topped boots, or
serviceable oxfords and wooden
stockings constitute almost universal
campus wear.
Each quarter the department ar
ranges graphic display proving the
points of hygienic footwear. Each
entering freshman is graded on her
shoes and has pointed out to her
that high-heeled, th1n-soled shoes
are not only in bad taste, but are
also impracticable on the cinder
paths of the campus.

Frank Connell, the able leader o.
the Indian school athletic associa
ton, suggested that he would like
very much to challenge the whole
state of Idaho in q twelve mile cross
crountry relay race with six men. He
pointed Fort Hall as the starting
point and Pocatello as the goal; fol
the two places are within twelve
miles apart.
Those interested in the doings Of
the school entertained the idea that
the event would be a great thing fol
the school as we'll as an event worth
seeing.
The basket ball team of the Indian
school defeated the St. Joseph
academy of Pocatello 28 to 26 at the
school. The team composed of Har-
risOn Baker, Frank Teton, Henry
Teton, Jess Stone, Jefferson Shank
and Evan Ingtauh. The boys will
play McCammon on Saturday. The
coach is in highest hope that they
will win. The school is very proud
will win.
The Bannock Indians are planning
to have a war dance Sunday and an
other form Of dance in the evening.
The dance will take place east Of the
Ferry Butte. The happening will
probably be the last dance of the
winter. Spring is near, when 1t
comes the Indians will break camps
and go to their individual homes
from the winter camps.

NOT ACADEMIC MATTERS

Tn time of peace prepare for war is brought home forcibly to us by news items such as that appearing the other day describing the activities of army ''tin hat" designers in Washing ton. They are busy trying to fix upon a style for use Tin future wars" at a time when people in this country see as little prospect of any future war as they did in 1914 before the happening Of the events which plunged the world into battle,
 The matter of soldiers "tin hats that are being made--or rather the plans of which use would be made if another war should come. And these are the sinister suggestions that dis close the importance of discussions such as that regarding our entrance into the World Court and the danger of delay in taking any action that will encourage peace. It is not assum- ing anything to declare that our participation in the deliberations of this court would be step in the di- rection of better world understand ing, step away from misunderstand ing, and it is for this reason that there is disgust at the attitude of Senator Lodge. for instance, in joining in a request made to the President for further information concerning his re- quest that the L. s, joint the court, when the seeking of such information merely delays matters and accom- plishes nothing else. Lodge, it will be remembered, committed himself in favor of the upbuilding and codifica- tion of international law and the es- tablishment of world court of jus tice" at the time of his notification of President Harding of his nomination following the Republican convention in 1920. The little affair of the sol diers' 'tin hats" comparatively in- significant, emphasizes the fact that delay in taking steps to preserve peace through international under standing is dangerous.

REFORM CONSOLIDATION

Here comes a movement of which
 the "wets," the race track interests,
 people who want Sunday movies, peo-
 pie who are getting much worried as
 to whence the next reform move
 mcnt will come. will approve. Three
 of the copntry's oldest and most sub stantial" reform organizations have pooled their financial interests and mapped a plan of campaign against q lot of things which they would banish, The new organization is to be known as the International Reform Bureau of the World Temperance League. They have been founded more than so years and are now go- ing to have headquarters at Washing ton and all work together.
 All the terrible people in the world who arc against some reform move ments will wish that this new organ ization would embrace every reform organization in the country so that people might know, through the new bodys publicity, just what to except, and might not stand in constant fear of some new organization springing up suddenly, making drive against them personally interested in some new pleasure which, according to that new movement has suddenly become a menace. It is great thing to know just where the enemy is mobilizing and what the enemy is planning. Bad people-and some people who are not so terribly bad--feel that the tidal wave of reform that is sweeping the country may leave some tragedy in its wake. So these bad people-and some people who are not so bad-would feel bit more secure in the enjoy ment of some quite innocent pleasures if they could know from what direc- tion they might expect the next at tack.

 that we are spending more and more

This Is making a start" in the right direction. This year should mark the beginning of new things, The determination not to exceed the appropriations should never be for gotten. A sentiment against an "extra tax should be created so that, in- stead of its being a more or less com mon occurrence, it should be some- thing that would bring discredit upon any administration responsible for It. Let this feeling be intensified and something really worth while to the taxpayers will have been accomplish ed this year,

MOTOR ACCIDENTS

Now begins the time when travel by automobile becomes more general with the result that accidents are more numerous. The campaigns to keep down the numbers of such ac- cidents cannot begin too early and 1t Is only by educating people to, the necessity of care that good results may be achieved. Last year in Massa- chusetts, Rhode Island and Connecti- cut there were S4S fatalities charge able to motor vehicle accidents, which was an increase of 7.3 per cent over the figures of the two years previous. In the same period the New Haven railroad reports a decrease in fatal accidents of POT per cent due to the educational work of the roads bureau pers, public authorities, school super intendents, factory owners and others keep off the railroad tracks"
 It is impossible, of course, to con- duct campaign advising people to keep off the highways where most of the automobile fatalities occur. But if railroad may make such reduction in the number of accidents through campaign of education certainly good results will come from similar campaign reminding pedestrians and drivers of cars of the constant care needed in this season of the year when the automobile traffic begins to be so heavy. A railroad has every incentive for urging people to keep off it's right of way. Accidents bring law suits and the road is often compelled to pay large damages to the injured or the next kin of someone killed. An efficient safety bureau" is a paying investment for it. Of the S4S people killel in motor accidents in the three states mentioned last year, 59,S per cent were pedestrians from which rather surprising fact it might well be argued that there is greater need of educating pedestrians rather than drivers in the matter of care, al though it is true that more consdera- tion of pedestrians by motorists would reduce this number.
 The points upon which there is no dispute are that the number of fatalities should not be allowed to in- crease from year to year with the increasing number of motor cars in use. and that campaigns of education appear to be the only means of bring ing about a reduction unless the drastic suggestions of limiting the speed of cars and making the granting of operators licenses more difficult are resorted to.

DOLLAR GAS

A dollar a gallon for gasoline is the prospect held up for the consumer in the report of the LaFolette oil inves- tigation committee to the Senate un- less means are taken to break what the report declares to be complete domination and control of the oil n- dustry by the Standard companies, says a news report.
 We hold no brief for the oil indus- tries; our sympathies, quite natural ly, are entirely on the other side. But we do see the necessity for discredit- ing this prospect if it is possible to discredit it. And we admit frankly that the only people to show the inn possibility of such a catastrophe con- ing to the country as dollar gas" are the oil people. It is for this reason that duty devolves, at once, upon the oil people to put in the best public defense they arc abe.raThen let the committee go on with it's work; rec ommend the necessary safeguards and receive the support of the neces- sary legislation.
 The wish may be father to the thought, but for the sake of all peo- pie who would be affected by such an unheard-of advance, it may be said with some confidence that the predic- tion is that of an aarmist We do not believe the fear of it will hinder pro- gress in those industries which would be disastrousy affected by such price. And we want all the evidence there is on the subject in order that this fear may be removed. An oil official, speaking of Senator LaFollette's pre- diction of possible charge of sl gallon, says: Any such suggestion is an absurdity. Industrial alcohol alone. which can be produced at 90 cents per gallon. would, apart from any competition within the industry itself prove a competitive factor which would prevent such prediction being realized"
 This official is quoted, not in any way in defense Of the oil interests, but as indicating something of the situa-

STEAM ENSLAVED BY
 REVOLVING BLADES
Prof. Crawford Explains Turbine
 Engine to Hi-Y Club

Pro essor Morris Barker Crawford of Wesleyan University addressed the High school club last night at the Young Mems Christian association following the weekly supper and meeting last night. Professor Craw- fcrd spoke on Modern Steam Fur bines." His talk was illustrated with photographs. Secretary Everett G.. Herre introduced the speaker, who is a graduate of the Universities Of Leipzig and Berlin. Professor Craw- ford is an instructor of physics. He said in part:
 Most men and boys are interested in steam turbines. Every boy likes the works of his first watch, and so it is with the gigantic steam turbines of the country.
 'The steam engine is a mechanical contrivance in which the force aris- ing from the elasticity and expansive action of steam, or from it's property of rapid condensation, or from the combination of these qualities, is made available as q source of mo- tive power in the arts and manufac- tures and in locomotion.
 'The expansive power of steam was known 10 the .ancients. and it's earliest use in connection with me- chanical contriyancc is noted by Hero of Alexandria (about 13O B. O. in his 'Pneumatica' In this treatise Hero describes an aeolipile or hollow spherical vessel turning on an axis, supplied with steam. and driven by the reaction from the escaping jets of steam, much in the same way as Barker's mill is driven by escaping water.
 This invention had no practical result, and it was not until the l7th century that the power of steam again recognized by Giovanni Battista della Porta (160D, Solomon de Caus and the Marquis of Worchester. Their various inventions were an adoption of the principle that me- chanical power is obtained by the pressure of steam acting on the sur face of water placed in a closed yes- sel
 "This principle was put to prac- tical use by Captain Thomas Savery Tn steam engine which he con- 1 for the purpose of raising water out of mines; and with the elevation Of water by pressure he also combined the principle of obtaining |

THE NEW TAX RATE

determination to practice econo- my has characterized this administra- tion. No accusation of q tendency toward extravagance may justly be made against any public official. Credit should not be given to any one person or any one body over another. The common council is just as careful of the taxpayers money as is the city meeting board, despite the resolution just adopted to the effect that it was the sense of the city meeting board that no obligation exceeding the amount detailed in the budget be incurred. The resolution is valueless except as another expression of public officials in favor of economy.
 The points to be emphasized, things of which taxpayers will take notice, are first that there is proper deter imitation not to exceed the budget, and second that the budget as adopt cd last night has probably been sub jected to more careful study by more people than any of recent years There is no criticism of former budgets intended: there is no inten- ton to belittle the splendid work done over those budgets. The point here emphasized is that people prepared to criticize the budget which would be presented took occasion to examine it in plenty of time to assist in cutting it down, with the result that opposition to it faded and it was adopted last evening without unfavorable com- ment.
