COAST PLANE
FIR MS SLASH
TRAVEL RATES

SAN FRANCISCO, July 7. UP
Fares were slashed today by three
major air lines operating between
San Francisco, Los Angeles and
San Diego in the first rate war on
the coast in the history of air car
riers.
Century-Pacif Airlines, a new
entry in the coast transportation
liela, posted fares considerably un-
der those previously charged by
Transcontinental and Western Air
Express, Inc, and Pacific Air Trans
port over the routes from San Fran
cisco to San Diego. precipitating
rate slashing by the other firms.
Fares announced by Century Pa
cific from San Francisco and Oak
land to Los Angeles are S1895 and
S22.95 through to San Diego. The
round trip fare to Los Angeles was
fixed at $34.11. Between Los An
geles and San Diego the fare was
set at S495 one way and 1891 for
the round trip.
The Transcontinental and West
ern Air Express line cut its fares to
the same figure from S25 one way
and S45 round trip to Los Angeles
This firm does not operate to San
Diego.
Pacific Air Transport reduced its
single fares from San Francisco to
Los Angeles to the same as Cen
tury Pacific, while the round trip
was cut from S47.50 to $3.50. From
Los Angeles to San Diego the COM
pany's prices were reduced to the
same as Century Pacific's for the
single and $500 for the round trip.
The Transcontinental and West
ern Air Express and Pacific Trans
port schedules include transporta-
ton from ticket offices to the fields.

WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE WITHOUT CAL0MEL. And You'll Jump Out of Bed in
 the Morning Karin to Go

If you feel sour and sunk and the world looks punk, don't swallow a lot of salts, mineral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing gum and expect them to make you suddenly sweet and buoyant and full of sunshine.
 For they can't do it. They only move the bowels and mere movement doesn't get at the cause. The reason for your down-ard-out feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily.
 If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn't digest. It just decays in the bowels. Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a thick, bad taste and your breath is foul, skin often breaks out in blemishes. Your head aches and you feel down and out. Your whole system is poisoned.
 It takes those good. old CARTER'S LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two pounds of bile flowing freely and make you feel up and up." They contain wonderful. harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing when 1t comes to making the bile flow freely
 But don't ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter's uttls Liver Piils. Look for ths name Cartax's Little Uves Pills on the sed lahsl. Rssent . suhstitute. c 1881 C. A. C.

This Is Why Your
Cakes Rise in Center

Does your cake batter in rising be-
come high in the middle, crack open
and sometimes form peak or hump
on the top?
Here's the reason why-usually it is
caused by too hot an oven at the be-
ginning of the baking. According to
Leila w. Hunt, State College associate
professor of foods and nutrition, the
heat of the oven should be moderate
at the first so that there may be time
for the formation of the bubbles of
gas which are to make the cake light.
If the oven is too hot, crust is formed
around the cake before the heat has
had time to pentrate to the center of
the loaf. AS consequence, when the
heat does reach the center, the dough
has to expand and will burst out at
the weakest place. Another cause for
the cracking of a cake is batter that
is too stiff.
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1931-12-24

with real political situation which
is the hest possible introduction to
life in democracy.
Finally, characteristic of junior
high school organization which seems
essential to the teachers but still has
to be "sold" to the taxpayers, is pro-
gram of student activity-bette des-
ignated as clubs or hobbies In some
schools a regular period is set aside
once week for these activities. The
chief purpose of this work is to edu-
cate for wise use of leisure.
The guiding aim in the Junior hieh
school, as Doctor Thomas H. Briggs
has expressed it, is ito teach pupils
to do better those desirable activities
that they will do anyway, and to teach
these by means Of material In itself
worthwhile"

GOOD NEWS AND BAD NEWS

newspaper, as it's implies, contracts to
give it's readers the news. Fulfilling that contract
is pleasant business when the news is pleasant
but rather the opposite when the news is bad.
But, it should be remembered the newspaper does
not make the news and is, of course, not respons-
ible for it.
To blame a newspaper for printing bad news is
no more sensible than blaming mirror for
fleeing ugliness or blaming physician for the
illness of his patient
If the Spokesman reports an unpleasant hap
penning in which some member of your family
is involved, it does not by so doing take sides any
more than mirror reflects unpleasant truths.
1t would much rather report some great accomp-
lishment of the person involved or some conspicu-
Gus proof Of virtue.
But the paper not manufacture facts It
can only record the truth.
If man robs bank and falls out with the
newspaper for reporting the incident he does not
thereby lessen his guilt. He might take revenge
on the editor as proof Of his resentment, but he
would still be rogue. The newspaper is not to
blame Disliking it will not change the facts. The
way to avoid being called thief in print is to
frain from stealing.

County Agent Durdle
Discusses Alfalfa Control
BY County Agent 2. C. Durdle


Very often in getting around over
the county we find farers who have
been having more or less difficulty in
securing good control of alfalfa on
time. Results on the plots below Ken
newick and in the Hanford commun-
ity have been so outstanding where
they have been fertilized with super
phosphate that we feel that it would
be very much worth while for every
farmer having difficulty with problem
to purchase 100 pounds of superphos-
phate and apply this one-fifth of an
acre preferably in STRIP across the
field where results and growth of al
falfa have been the poorest. If this
application is made during the winter
then one should be able to notice re-
suits from it on the first cutting of al
falfa. If not at this time, watch the
second cutting. If one does not get
results from this then it is needless
to say that fertilizer program for
the whole field would not be practical
but if results are as outstanding as
they have been on plots which we
have fertilized then we believe it would
be practical to apple additional super
phosphate between the first and Sec
ond cuttings.
We are bringing this matter up
again at this time so that alfalfa
growers may make arrangements at
this time to secure the necessary SUI
perphosphate for at least making these
test plots.

The Modern School
THE JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL COMES
OF AGE
BY E. H. BUTLER
Principal, Mason intermediate School,
Tacoma

It is now only twenty-one years
since the Junior high school organi-
zation sprang into being. But already
there are over 1400 Junior high schools
and about $500 more junior-senior
high schools In the United States, and
40 Junior high schools In the state Of
Washington. This remarkable spread
indicates the success Of the new plan
In serving better the special needs of
adolescent pupils-of u to 16 years Of
age and usually in grades seven eight
and nine.
What is this junior high school
which has become so POPULAR
First, 1t is departmentalized, like
the high schools. Pupils change rooms
and teachers at the end of each per-
iod.
The junior high school should offer
some choice of subjects which may in
clude introductory work in foreign
languages, mathematics, industrial arts
and business practice.
Pupils are brought to face rather
early in their careers the important
question of vocation. Under guidance
they are encouraged to explore and
expose themselves mentally to several
fields of human experience. There ir
no longer a feeling on the part OF
school authorities that a youth once
enrolled in a course should stick to
it to the bitter end, whether he shows
aptitude and taste for the work or
not. This practice of adjusting the
program in consideration of the indi-
vidual needs of the pupil has cut down
considerably the percentage of fail
ure and has tended to keep a greater
number of pupils in school.
Student participation in school con-
troll is considered by some authorities
to be the most important phase of
Junior high school life. Through the
student council the pupil is confronted
