KEITHS To HELP
BOYS PARTY
To ORPHANS

Well, it's all set-every orphan
In Washington is to have a
grand Christmasl That's the
cry you hear everywhere from the
Times carrier boys, who have ar
ranged with RKO-Keith's Theater
for a liberal share Of that thea
ter's receipts beginning Friday,
November 4, with this percentage
to be used for the purchase of
candy, nuts, fruits and toys for
those same orphans.
Everything "Set" Now
The Times carrier boys have
given parties for the Washington
orphans every Christmas for the
past three years. Some Of those
years it has caused plenty of
scraping and figuring to get the
money together, but now, for the
fourth year, with the cooperation
of RKO-Keith's, everything is 60
ing to be great for the boys and
for the orphans.
Not to be alone, RKO-Keith's
and the Times carrier boys have
received assurances that the Po
tomac Food Distributors Associa.
ton also will give assistance,
should it be needed.
Also, as in the years past, the
boys know Washington business
houses will contribute literally to
make this Christmas, which may
be the toughest of them all for
ever so many folks, the greatest
ever for the local orphans-that's
q great consolation in itself.
Funds to Go for Party
The funds realized from this
special arrangement with RKO-
Keith's will be spent in making
the party success. The party,
itself, to be held at RKO-Keith's
on the morning of December "a
when Santa Claus will be on
hand to meet the airplane and
see to it that not single one is
omitted in what is planned to
be a very happy Christmas Eve.
However, the success of every
thing depends on Washington
moviegoers. Buy your tickets for
RKO-Keith's. See Mitzi Green
in "Little Orphan Annie" Know
that you'll see grand movie and,
at the same time, know that a
liberal percentage of your admis-
sion price is going into a fund
that will bring joy to the hearts
Of the orphans of washington at
Christmastime. ..

Of Mrs. Mary Becker, of the

and get job were nipped in the
bud this morning when the
youngster was picked up by a mo-

way just out of Newark, N. j.
The motorist phoned Mrs.
Becker. who left at once to bring
the boy home.
Young Becker went A. w. o. l..
from his school, Linton Hall, at
BriStow, Va, late Saturday night,
when his cadet captain threat
ened to have him expelled for a
practical joke.
The threat Of expulsion was
only a joke, but the youngster
took it seriously and, rather than
face the disgrace of being sent
home, decided to start out for
himself. He took the trail for
New York, where, he said, he
thought he could get a job.

Two-Dollar Bill Called
"Just Darned Nuisance

The idea that there is something
unlucky about the So bill--so that
many persons tear the corners off
them to avert misfortune-occasio
ly arouses curiosity.
A number Of our readers have writ
ten in with suggestions to account for
the belief in the unluckiness of this
particular note One. however, q
merchant in Pennsylvania, says from
his experience as retailer that
''there is no question Of superstition
in connection with the So bill, it is
just a darned nuisance.
'"There is no compartment provided
in our cash register for Them" he
writes, "and when we are handed one
by a customer we have to secrete 1t
away somewhere until we get d
chance to pass it on to the bank. We
can't very well hand it out to another
customer for change. that is If we
want to retain their good will.
"'The only possible use it has is
when some one purchases a 2-cent
stamp and hands US a $40 bill in pay
ment. Then we can get back at him
by unloading all the So bills we have
on hand" Literary Digest.

Chickasaw Indian Land
in Kentucky Purchase

According to the Kentucky Prog
ress Magazine, the Purchase, usually
described as the jackson Purchase, is,
so far as Kentucky is concerned, the
west tip-end of the state, composed
Of eight counties, that were once all
Hickman county and almost surround
ed by water. Twenty counties in Ten
nessee were a part of the original
purchase. The whole section is only
about 5000 square miles in area. and
all the section belonging to Kentucky,
a little more than 1000 square miles,
is west of the Tennessee river, south
and east of the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers, respectively, and In part north
of Reelfoot lake. The counties COM
prising it now are Graves, Galloway,
Marshall, McCracken, Ballard. Car
Isle, Hickman and Fulton. The whole
section is named the Purchase, be-
cause it was the last portion Of the
state coded by the Chickasaw In
dams to the United States, and is
called Jackson Purchase because Of
the activity Of Andrew Jackson as
commissioner with Isaac Shelby In its
Observation-Disclosures Star.

EDITORIAL

This year the club program has
been increased from one, the Glee
Club of former years, to eight diff
ferent ones varying in subjects and
form.
Each club takes up work accord
ing to its suitability. The clubs
are: The Model Airplane Club,
Handicraft and Art Club, Nature
Club, Book Club, Boy Scout Club,
Photography Club, and the Journal
ism Club.
Only pupils doing excellent work
may belong to two clubs other than
the Glee Club.
Some people think that clubs take
away the pupils study period.
do not, because some time is given
during each or most every recitation
period for the industrious pupil to
get his work done. l feel that the
pupils are being benefited by these
clubs in that they teach other work
not taken UP in their, course Of
study. The value of self depend
ence, the art of being willing to CO.
operate with other class members
and above all the art of sociability,
which has not been considered in
our school life until this year, are a
few of the things at which these
clubs aim. LEILA LONG,

Wise Old Coyote Takes
Few Chances ON Trap,

~@A@o~AS@O
Ordinarily the coyote does not band
like the timber wolf. The person I'M
acquainted with coyotes and their hab-
its would hardly believe the above
statement after listening for the first
time to the bowling Of one or two OF
these animals. The coyote can make
more noise for his size than any an
imal in the woods and q solitary male
can so change the volume and direc-
ton Of his voice that one would almost
swear there were q dozen coyotes DO
ing their stuff.
If a coyote locates dead game and
is afraid to run chances Of getting his
toes pinched he win. provided he In
a wise old beast, employ q simple
strategy to test the danger Of the place.
Setting back on his launches he will
send few well-rounded calls into the
cir, sort of hunting cry which sig
mails for help. The nearest coyote, par
ticularly If 1t be a young and un-
initiated fellow, will answer the call
and come post haste. While the wise
one holds back the newcomer will walk
up and investigate. Presently. provid-
ing nothing serious happens. the old
one will come on in and partake OF
the feast. But, as sometimes happens.
II the youngster steps into steel trap.
the other unceremoniously takes his
leave, another sly wrinkle Of wisdom
forming on his shrewd face as he
steals cautiously away.

Diving Apparatus Not
Used by Pearl Seekers

The native pearl diver of the South
seas, seeking gems from the oceans
depths, makes use of no other appara-
tus than a sort of clothespin clamp
ing his nostrils. He reaches the bot
tom by clinging to stone, which Is
hauled up again for the next descent.
The diver then gathers his pearl oys-
tiers, placing them in a basket hang
ing from his neck.
He has only two minutes In which
to fill the basket. For three minutes
Ia longer than any man can hold his
breath under water even after years
Of practice. Then he is hauled to the
surface, and deposits his load of oys-
tiers for opening next morning. He
rests while before descending once
more.
When you see lot Of native divers
working from their canoes, you can
hear them taking the wind" in prepa-
ration. A man gathers himself to-
gether. his face works, he gulps and
groans and strains as he forces his
diaphragm downward and pumps air
into his lungs and holds it there.
Blessed are the poor, for they
don't expect much.

Death by Electricity

It usually takes a tenth Of an am
pere through the vital organs to kill
man, but under some conditions a
current of electricity only one-quarter
as strong will do so. There is a wide
variation in the amount of current nee
essary to kill for different individuals.
To electrocute criminals 1900 volts are
used. If the skin is wet, a much low
er voltage may have this effect. Many
cases are known In which ITO volts
applied to the wet skin, so as to pro-
duce current through the vital or
gans, have caused death.

Members of the Junior class have
received their beautiful class rings.
Everyone seemed to be well pleased
with his ring, which has slightly
different die-work than former rings
had. We wish to thank the Senior
class for being so kind as to loan us
$4,000. This amount made it pos
sible for those who had already paid,
to have their rings before Christmas.
In our last home room meeting
members of the class took part in a
spelling bee, which was greatly en-
joyed by everyone.
