Woman Controls State Funds
and California Economies

reaus of the state from S1O3,000,O0O to
79.000,000.
Governor Richardson was elected on
an economy platform. State officials
holding easy jobs felt little concern
when he was chosen. They did not ex
pect any interference. Economy was
alright in theory, they asserted, but in
practice it was impossible. So they sat
back and waited. Their initial concern
came when the governor commissioned
Mrs. Pierce TO work out the budget and
informed her that he wanted at least
twenty million dollars Topped off it and
all unnecessary jobs abolished. As a
member of the state board of control she
was in a position TO find out exactly
what every state employee was doing for
the money he received and to determine
whether his or her work was necessary.
incidentally Mrs. Pierce, who is
young and modern to an extreme in her
ideas, is an advocate of equal pay for
women engaged in equal work with men
and also is an extremely expert finan-
cier.
In preparing the budget she has had
t direct opposition of most of the
politicians in the state and today smil-
ingly complains that the carpet about
her desk has been worn smooth by the
feet of those who came TO demand that
their pet projects be let alone no matter
where else the economy axe was APP
piled.

San Benito Inventor of Machine That
Will Destroy Pest.

San Benito, Tex, Feb. GA machine
for extermintion of boil weevils has
been invented by W. II. Thompson, of
this place, and will be manufactured in
quantities, so a supply may be ready
when the cotton crop comes on.
This machine has been thoroughly
tested and is constructed to take care
of two rows of cotton at once. The
weevils are knocked off by revolving
brushes and fall into pans that are
adjusted automatically to the turns in
the rows. About twenty Of these ma
chimes are being manufactured now.

GIRLS AT KAMP KARNEY

The girls took over Kamp Karney
last Saturday but the boys evidently
left them all of the bad weather. But
that did not interrupt the good times
for Miss Ada Truncer, who is direct
ing the kamp, kept their time well oc-
cupied and when some visitors on
Tuesday were lamenting the fact that
that it had been so rainy, the reply
from an astonished girl was. ooh, has
it been raining; we didn't know any
thing about it Nuf Sed. They GER
tainly must be enjoying themselves.
There have been only nine girls in
kamp this week, with five leaders and
two probably misplaced boys who,
nevertheless, are sufficiently able to
hold their own in any company.
holly Simonson is kamp buglar and
we fear is going to make his home
there, as he has been on deck since the
kamp opened in June. Babe Vel
don, who has passed the American
Red Cross Life Saving test, is the
aquatic guardian and is also giving
the girls some instructions in SWIM
The girls have been taken on OBJ
servation hikes and afterwards give
descriptions of what they saw. On
Tuesday evening in a little sketch was
pleasingly presented.
Sunday was truly a visitors day and

during the day and many heard an eN-

 Sturdy Mongolian and Tartar ponies are imported from the north for racing. These are hard looking animals when they arrive in Shanghai. but with care and atten- tion they become very .creditable in appearance. Horse racing is very popular in China and Shanghai has what has been termed the richest course in the world. Polo, golf, tennis and all of the games known to Europeans and Americans, be- sides few unknown to either, are to be found here.

Improved steamship facilities bring the Orient as near as many parts of Europe. In fact, it is no more of jaunt to Shanghai than it is to Mediterranean ports, and the steamers that ply the Pacific are as good as the best afoat. The Empress of Russia" of the Can

 During his career in Alaska, Stuck covered thousands of miles in his Journeys by dogsled and motor launch and often aifoot, ministering to his charges and noting by the way those details which, in Ten Thousand Miles With a Dogsled," Voyages on the Yukon and Its Trl- butaries" and "A Winter Circuit of thousands of lovers of the open road and the upward trail.

Stuck to them WAS "dry wood man. Among the Siwash, the wise man in making camp selects instead of green or soggy timber that which is dry and seasoned and will therefore burn long and furnish both light and heat So in the Takuah language of the Yukon the natives praying at the grave of Stuck say of him that His light burns brightly and won't go out"
 Not content with the cross which marks his grave. the natives at a recent meeting determined to enlarge and improve the hospital which he founded and make it permanent memorial to him. There were Eski- mos, Indians, trappers, traders and miners present at the meeting. as well as representatives from the ad- jacent posts of the Presbyterian, Ro- man Catholic, Methodist and Baptist churches, in all about, 30 or 40 men and within 40 minutes $1,760 was subscribed toward the fund of $25,000 necessary for the purpose.
