Javonese Houses by No
Means Things of Beauty

The clay walls which surround a
Balinese farm in Java are usually two
or three meters high. Very often they
rest upon foundation of stones and
are covered with a heavy layer Of
rushes which are to protect them from
destructive tropical rains. A door In
the wall is closed at night with wood
en- or bamboo planks, the Detroit
News states.
The walls around farms of "poeng-
gavas" or district mayors, are usually
built of more substantial material.
The same is true of the homes of
Ballnese princes. Yet while these
latter houses may be deliberately dec
Grated they resemble the more humble
dwellings In that they are exceedingly
filthy. The numerous members Of the
family = parents, brothers, sisters,
nieces, nephews, married or unmar-
rled-llve in a single house.
The pigs, dogs and goats found on
every Ballnese farm are kept In
separate hut. The loan huts are usu-
ally built upon wooden elevations and
are exceedingly ugly and ungainly.
On each farm one will also find
bamboo baskets to house the fowls.

Words We Have Clipped

A few years ago a music-hall come
dian made a great hit by clipping ia
millar words, and we still hear him
initiated in colloquial conversation,
London Tit-Bits says People say "im
pOss" for impossible, "biz" for bust
ness and "pash" for passion.
But such clipped words are not des-
tined to appear In any dictionary, and
we must go back much farther In the
history of words to find that when we
say: HE led the van," we mean the
Vanguard; when we speak Of pair
of van horses, we mean "cervan" {;
when we retire to the drawing ROOM"
we ought to say the withdrawing
room: when we talk of "hobby" we
refer to riding a "hobby horse" when
we talk of sport we mean "disport,"
Of tending we mean attending" or
"cute' lawyer we mean acute, and
OF "still" we mean a distillery.

Women Surely HaUe Keen
Sense of Money Values

If the average woman were without
by budget expert the average Amer
lean family would have less money in
the bank than 1t has. Eliminating the
girl who lives at home and can spend
her earnings for pretty things, and
whose extravaganza is one of the
manifestations Of her youth, 1t would
have been fairer to say the average
housewife of America has a very keen
appreciation Of the value of money
and how hard 1t Is for the husband to
earn 1t. 1t Is probably quite true that
women do not budget their expenses;
neither did the great United States
government until few years ago II
the budget expert would go into the
stores patronlEed by the wives Of wage
earners and note with what care and
anxiety the customers spend their
money and how anxious they are to
get full value, she might revise her
judgment a bit With due respect to
the photographers, the women are
shrewd buyers. The hardly saved dol
lars which bulk so large in savings
fund reports and bank deposits are
where they are because the women Of
the country have put them there, often
against the will of their husbands.
The average man is a much swifter
spender than woman, and despite
the jokes of the photographers and
comic artists, all women DO not throw
away money on lnnumerable hats and
gowns. The budget expert did less
than justice to her own sex when she
criticized their financial acumen.-

Circles Around Moon

Circles around the moon are caused
by moisture In the atmosphere. 1t
frequently happens that the sunlight
reflected from the moon to the earth
Is so refracted by the atmospheric
moisture that a ring or circle is
formed The more moisture there is
in the atmosphere the smaller the
circle will appear. The form and size
Of the ring will depend entirely upon
the particular condition and quantity
Of moisture in The air.

SET BRANDING" CASE
-Four Murder Cases Also on Docket
For This Week.

L. G. Farley, negro, charged by in
dictment with criminal assault upon a
negfess and also charged by complaint
with disfiguring the woman whom he
is alleged to have branded" is sched-
uled to go to trial in the fourth
District Court Monday morning. A
special -venire of 100 men has been
summoned for the case.
In addition to the Farley case the
Ninety-fourth docket calls for the
trial of four murder cases, those of
Emeterio Jaime, Jim MCGEE, Emilio
Casanova and a man named Garcia.
The three latter are on indictments
charging them with the killing of Teo-
doro Lerma, for which Juan Garnica
already has been convicted and given
five years.
Farley was indicted following his
arrest on a charge of having assaulted
and branded" Octavia Bell near the
Salado creek. Testimony given by the
woman at habeas corpus hearing
was that Farley and several other
men had grabbed her, thrown her into
a car and taken her to q lonely spot
on the Salado. There she claims Far
ley assaulted her and then branded her
several times.
The cases against MCGEE, Casanova
and Garcia involve the now famous
''foot print evidence" wherein the
state depends largely for conviction on
the plaster casts of foot prints found
near the scene Of the murder. These,
together with shoes taken from the
four men were introduced in the trial
of Garnica.
The theory evolved by the state in
the case against Garnica was that the
four men met at dance and proceed
ed to the Lerma home where they
killed and robbed their victim. Depu-
ty lSheriffs Antonio Diaz and John
Subira, who investigated the case and
later arrested the three men are the
states main witnesses.
