OLD INDIAN FOUND INSANE

Wrangell. Sept, 4, (R---- Oscar Kasheets, an Indian, aged 58, walk ed into an electrical supply store and boldly demanded check for one hundred dollars from the lady in charge. The request was prompt ly granted and the lady thereupon telephoned to the U. s. Marshal.
 Kasheets acted so queerly when arrested that an insanity charge was filed against him. At the trial he told the jury that he made the demand for money because he re ceived a wireless from Thomas A. Edison to call on her to get hun dred dollars. When asked why Mr. Edison was giving him money he said people were interested in him since President Coolidge and wife adopted him as their son. In 1886 Kasheets was the first person to be arrestel in Wrangell under the civil law.

color beyond the mere consideration
of decoration.
Notified wall finishes have been
developed that give the eye moder-
ate stimulation, thoroughly devoid OF
monotony. Through the use of no
specific pattern, the eye is not bored
and the student is able to progress
in his studies without the attendant
handicap of plain, severe, tiring en-
Vironment.
Psychologically, color stimulates
certain reactions, both physical and
associational. 1t is generally con-
ceded that purity of hue is synony-
nous with order and neatness. The
student in colorful surroundings has
favorable reactions that tend to in
still into his mind set ideas of
cleanliness and decorum.
Thus, the free use of color, on ex-
teriors and interiors, in rooms, cor
ridors, Fairgrounds and gardens,
does much to break down the tradi-
tional dislike so often found in the
child mind.
The school and the schoolroom
become agreeable, attractive and in
spring. The student profits and
gains many vital things that all in
all do much to develop nationally a
more intense and human outlook on
life.

UNDERWEAR AND HEALTH

The old idea that warm or heavy
underwear once donned in the fall
should be worn until the warm davs
of late spring or early summer is
said to be without any actual found
alton in fact. Present styles of win
ter underwear are always warm.
Thus when people are in their mod
ern heated house and offices most
of the time they are usually too
warm. The result is that their bod-
les get accustomed to high tempera-
lures. This practice is bad because
it lowers ones resistance to cold.
The underwear, as well as all other
clothing, should be chosen accord
ing to the severity of the climate.
the kind of work one does and other
conditions of life. And health an
thorities advise that it is a good
plan to change the underwear ac-
cording to the days temperature
and activities. Such changing is
said to aid the automatic natural
temperature controlling system of
the body. The modern tendency
nowadays is to wear one type of un-
derwear (summer underwear) tba
whole year round. Modern conven-
fences, facilities and luxuries. sucb
as heated houses and offices. closed
and heated autos, etc, are causing
this change in underwear styles

MORE COLOR IN THE SCHOOL
Faber Birren.


The effective use of color finds it's
greatest opportunity in the modern
schOolroom. Here, in the develop
ment of character, color is made to
play an important and primary part
by contributing that desired charm
of environment so essential to the
best of study and inspiration.
Color holds in the schoolroom the
same tempting charm as the rural
school with its open window looking
out upon the brilliant vividness of
nature. Sadly enough in the pro-
gress of school architecture, SANTA
ton and the problems of illumina-
ton disregarded all element of per-
sonality. The schoolroom of a few
years back, with it's relentless white
or drab walls, its strict chastness
and monotony could not long exist.
Thankfully, there has since been a
broad emancipation. Colored paints
are fully as sanitary as white paints.
Colored pigments have light-reflect-
ing qualities that are more desirable
than white. And, added to this, color
itself is the one satisfactory and es-
sential environment under which the
student is enabled to relax and to
accomplish his studies with utmost
efficiency.
The use of color in the schoolroom
has threefold importance-emotion-
al, visual and psychological.
Emotionally, color speaks a Ian
guage that is universally under
stood and appreciated. Briefly green,
blue and violet are cold, and yellow,
orange and red are warm hues. Red
is intense and associated with
warmth and animation. Yellow is
brilliant, stimulating, cheerful. Blue
is cold, depressing when used in full
clarity in large areas, and in the
main is hue that is satisfactory
only when considerably toned down.
Orange is warm, exceedingly excit-
ing, and exerts a stimulating effect
depending on the degree of it's inten-
Sity. Green is cheerful and refresh-
ing a hue associated with nature.
These, in effect, are the emotional
appeals of color. They represent
he influence of hues as exciting or
stimulations and show the
that attend the use of

HOME ECONOMICS MAKING
RAPID PROGRESS

College entrance credit for work
in home economics by high-school
pupils is allowed by all State univer-
stiles which admit women and by at
least II privately endowed higher
institutions located in 8 different
States, as shown by Home EcOnom-
les Letter No. 4, issued by the Inter
iOr Department, Bureau of Educa-
ton, for which data were contribu-
ted from 81 cities in 43 States and
the District of Columbia.
OF local school authorities in rs
cities reporting on the subject, 49
state that the same credit, hour for
hour, is given for home economics
as for any other high school sub
ject. Reports from 72 cities indicate
that in 30 cities home economics is
a required subject for high-school
girls. OF the entire enrolment of
high-school girls in 67 representa-
tive cities in northern, southern, and
western States, during the first
semester of the school year 1929,
the average percentages taking
home economics courses were 29.7,
36.1, and 36.S, respectively. AS
compared with previous reports,
these figures show an increase in
enrolment in home economics. In
concerning the home eco
nOmics curriculum is given by
school authorities in So cities. OF |
.hese, high schools in 26 cities offer
'our years instruction in the sub
ect; in z cities, three years; in 2
titles, two and half years; in 10 |
'itiesy two years; in 8 cities, one
vear; and high schools in 21 cities
'ffer different combinations of |
courses in home-economics subjects.

In Philadelphia the registration
shows 40 per cent Of the voters are
women as against less than 80 per
cent in 1924. The highest previous
record was in the mayoralty cam
paign last year when 80 per cent of
| the registered voters were women.
In Baltimore it is reported more
women have Registered for voting
than men. In Cleveland the regis
tration of women has increased ten
per cent so far over 1924 and in
Cincinnati the first days registra-
tion showed that $4,000 more women
had registered than in 1924 and TO-
900 more than in 1920. Chicago re-
ports that while the men have in
creased their registration 80 per
cent since 1924 the women have in
creased their total registration "a
per cent. st. Louis reports that in
some of the residential wards more
women have registered than men.
In Kansas City the women's regis
tration has increased 30 per cent
and Seattle reports more women
registering than men. In San Fran
cisco the woman registration Elm
creased nearly $4,000.
All of which gives the politicians
to think over. Just where |
most of this new woman vote is 60
ing nobody can of course tell to a
certainty although both parties are
an advantage in it. At any
rate there can be little doubt that
he women are going to play big
part in selecting the next President
If the United States. There is no
questioning that fact This year
Madame seems to be taking her
politics seriously and it will be re-
lected in the count of the votes.
