All departments of the Miner Nor
NAL School, realizing the important
place of physical education, are en-
gagged in a better health campaign,
The junior hygiene classes are at
tacking the problem from the theo-
retical and scientific standpoint. Each
student is making direct application
of the principles learned by system
aticalIy building up his own physical
equipment. an essential process in
teacher preparation. They are also
planning a series of lessons on the
care of the body, health habits, etc,
to be presented in the grades.
In order to obtain better results
in carrying out a broader health pro-
gram in the practice schools, the ele-
ment of competition has been intro
duced. Thus far the pupils of the
fourth grade have won the stars
which are being awarded the school
consuming the largest quantity of
milk during the week. Miss Anita j.
Turner, assistant director Of physical
training, pioneer in this movement
for health improvement contributes
free milk tickets to those children
who are unable to purchase them.
BY request of the students, dis

Tins Who Dropped Fortunes
in Fake Sports.

New York.-John Strosnider, one OF
the most famous figures in American
criminal history, is dead: He was the
king of the confidence men and was
known to police in New York city, Chi
cago, and several other large cities In
America. big Jack" Strosnider, in his
prime, swindled the credulous out of
81 100000 to $2,0OO,0 OO-and died al
most penniless.
II never rob an honest man. because
no honest may will fall for my PROPOSE
tion," he used to say. I've taken a
million from men who were a lot more
crooked than l. The sharper they are,
the better like them. There's q suck
er born every minute, except in New
York city. There one is born every 80
seconds"
Strosnider first associated with the
famous "Mayberry gang" promoters Of
the fake prize fight, foot race, and
horse race swindles, but in a few years
launched out for himself. With head
quarters in New York city, he confined
his activities to wire tapping and pay
off games. Easy money" flowed from
him as rapidly as it came. He bought
a magnificent home in Brooklyn and
gave parties for friends that cost him
thousands of dollars. In all this time
he had been in prison only once. He
was pardoned in 1898.
Luck having turned against him in
New York city, big Jack" went to Chi
cago and got busy. There he ap-
preached William t. Kirby, owner of
private bank, and swindled him Of
$4,000 on fake horse bet. Kirby's
loss threw his bank into ruin, and the
victim sued. His story was doubted
for a long time, but finally big jack
was arrested and sent to prison for
four years. He spent all his money
fighting the case.
When he emerged, Strosnider took
$40, 900 from two other men and was
caught again. He spent every penny
defending himself, and finally escaped
Police drove him back to
New York city.
Last November he became i'll. He
went to his home in Salem, o., and
December 81, died of cerebral hemorr-
hage. big Jack" operated so quietly
that even his closest friends did not
know of his death until few days ago.

PRICE STABILIZATION

A government report on price levels
indicates that sterilization is well
under may. January figures showed
a check in the prices that were
slowly edging higher during the win
ter, but not a drop. The check will
be welcomed by the customers, but
the producers are concerned that
there shall be no drop.
A year ago the prices to farmers
meant no profit at all, but during
the last year the general rise of 10
per cent has given them at least an
earning margin. 1t stands to reason
that prices cannot stay so high that
they bring periodical buyers strikes
from the customers, nor can they
drop so low that the profit of the
farmer is wiped out.
Men long ago gave up the idea that
prices would ever return to the pre-
war level. What they have been
waiting for was the time when they
would come to rest at some point

One of the finest compliments stu
dents of Washington State College
could pay to the former president of
the institution, DR.. E. A. Bryan, is
given in the repeated invitations to
Dr. Bryan to be the speaker on vari-
GUS important occasions at the col
lege. The Associated Students have
Just asked him to deliver the prin-
cipal address Founders day, March
49,. 1t was almost entirely through
Dri Bryan's efforts, coupled with an
organizing ability far beyond that of
the average man, and an earnest de-
sire to give the young men and wo-
men of eastern Washington an edu-
cational institution which would fill
their needs, that Washington State
College has become what it is. This
fact is appreciated by the present
student body, just as it is by the
alumni They recognize, also, that
DR. Bryan will always come to them
with a new and timely message, fully
abreast of the times. The people of
Idaho should realize, and a majority
of them do realize, that Dr. Bryan
is doing the same great work for
Idahos educational system, as COM
missioner of education, that he did
for Washington State College. Any
move that would lose to the state his
ability as an educator would be a
most disastrous move and would be-
fore many years bring deep regret.
