NEW PLAYGROUND BEING
DEVELOPED.

One Of the finest Improvements, both
from the scenic and utility standpoints,
that has been made in the city since the
completion of the city hall is the de-
velopment of the Fairgrounds south
Of Central Building. This entire block
outside of the lots owned by the
Episcopal church was purchased some
time. ago by the School Trustees with
additional Fairgrounds in mind Land
scaping this area, however, outside Of
some tree trimming that was done by
the pupils, had been left until funds
could be budgeted for that purpose
garding the need for more playground,
the suggestion was made that this
would be a good place for relief funds.
Evidently this struck responsive COM
munity chord for Mr. Paul Church has
assigned MIR. John Harmon force Of
men who have been trimming trees
and clearing brush for the past week.
They will also furnish the labor for the
installation of water into the grounds,
for this plot will, without doubt, be-
come park for public gatherings. The
Women's Club has donated the giant
stride, which had to be removed from
the South Libby grounds and Super
visor Webb has agreed to furnish seed
for grass plots.
For some time the grades have been
using one section Of the grounds Tor
baseball field; this has been en-
larged and space cleared for double
tennis courts in the northeast corner.
The tennis courts will be appreciated
by the many young people who dur
ing the. summer find the available
courts of the city too few in number.
The fact that No. highway runs di-
rectly by the place will mean that it
will be an attraction to those who have
moment to stop to enjoy the quiet
shade and to use the playground
facilities.
| While primarily school playground
the park promises to become de-
cided community asset and many en-
thusiastic comments are heard from
the passersby when the project is ex-
planned to them II is fine example
of what community interest will do

scape i. Now what have you?
WHOSE ASTROLOGY?

Once again the zodiac includes many
members of our school. We are proud
to present to you these persons born
when the sun is in Pisces. We find
they are kind and loving. They are
easy-going, adaptable, and receptive TO
impressions. They are apt to mold
themselves to circumstances rather than
compel things to their will. They are
trustful, confiding, honest and amiable
with abundant sympathy especially for
dump animals. They are idealistic and
imaginative. They are very capable and
have natural ability in arts. They are
prone to be sarcastic and are timid and
bold alternately. They should strive to
overcome the tendency to worry.
(About Johnny Forest?) They make
excellent nurses, decorators and actors
of emotional parts. They should be
cautious in the selection of friends as
they are too easily influenced. Notice,

CLASS RINGS.

CLASS RINGS.
Dear Editor.
A plan has been preached by Mr..
Buckingham concerning Senior rings.
This plan, briefly, follows:
One certain ring would be chosen.
The Senior classes would not 90
through all the bother Of choosing new
rings each year, but would keep the
same design every year The school
would give this ring to the student
in his or her Senior year, upon the
student earning certain number Of
required credits and proving himself
ready to graduate. The school would
pay for these rings. They would not be
expensive because, bought in large
lots, they would not cost more than a
couple of dollars even for gold ring
A class ring is something that should
always remain cherished remem-
brance of class days 1t is unfortunate
that out of every class, there are sew
eral who cannot get their rings. If this
plan were adopted it would enable
everyone to get their rings and lessen
the expense of graduating.
1t has been brought up that the
school cannot make present of any
thing worth more than dollar to the
student. But even SO, if the school
orders the rings and paid $lO0 on them

SECURITIES AD
RULES MODIFIED
Less Stringent Regulation

BY the Associated Press.
New and less stringent regulations
governing newspaper advertising of
new stock and bond issues were
adopted yesterday by the Securities
Commission.
Explaining its action, the commits
sioe1 said:
THE instructions are drawn with
view to making possible newspaper
prospectus of about the compass OF
the advertisement used before the
passage Of the securities act"
Under the new rule, an advertiser
may describe a financial offering in
less detail. Especially, it revokes re-
uuirements for the printing OF flnaC-
cial statements and schedules.
"The requirements are SUCH" the
commission said, that the offering
advertisement, as permitted, will not
purport to give complete information.
A statement is required calling atten-
ton of the prospective investor and
. the fact that complete information
may be had from the registration
statement and the prospectus.
Further, a statement IS required
to the effect that the issue, though
registered, is not approved by the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
"The purpose Of this last statement
Is to warn investors that the registra-
ton of a new issue with the COM
mission is not to be regarded as an
indication of approval by the COM
mission
The commission said newspaper
prospectuses" as used in the instruc-
tions applies only to newspaper and
periodical advertisements and not to
reprints, reproductions or detached
copies of the advertisements.

"I'l go if it kills me-" Aunt
Willie said.
Her teeth chartered again.
Mary couldn't get Aunt Willie
out of her mind, though it was a
busy day, and Mrs. Samson
dropped in for a few minutes,
too.
But all day long she could see
that breakfast scene. wi t h
Aunt Willie dropping over her
place at the kitchen table, auto
matically feeding Tootsie with
bits from her plate, heavy eyes
staring into space, silent for the
only time in her life.
Twice she had the almost ir-
resistible impulse to call home,
to ask if Aunt Willie had gone
off to work, if she seemed all
right.
Those confounded girls, hui
initiating her that way! Aunt
Willie, who'd cheerfully worked
overtime for every one of them,
and given them lovely presents
much nicer than they ever
gave her at Christmas time
making sport of her just because
she was a little old and funny
when they were no spring
chickens themselves.
She could hardly wait to get
into the house that night.
where's Aunt Willie?"
Ma looked up TRANQUILITY, sur
priSed that Mary should rush to
the kitchen, ask for Aunt Willie
before she even got off her coat
and hat.
why, I don't know. I sup
pose she's staying a little late.
Mary, as long as she isn't here,
I wonder if you'd just get off
your things and feed Tootsie?
She's whining so I can't stand
it. SHUT UP, Tootsie! You'll get
your dinner in a minute-I
can't leave the veal outlets
they burn so easily"
But the fat old dog wouldn't
eat. She squatted before her
plate on the kitchen floor, and
Whined.
well! That's the first time
that animal ever refused food.
Feel her nose, Mary, Is it hot?
Not that it will hurt her any to
miss meal"
Mary said: "She ought to be
home now. You don't suppose
she's sick, Too sick to come
home?"
"Oh, no. One of the girls
would have telephoned. More
than likely she stopped at the
chiro.'s for a treatment, or a
shampoo or something. She did
look bad, though"
They went to the front door,
looked up the street. Dinner was
always on the table at $50.
Aunt Willie was never late.
Il wish she'd hurry. I Just
hate to have things dry up.
I'm glad your fathers not here
tonight, he gets so impatient
with Willie. I do hope he does
well on this trip, though he
says nobody's buying. I try not

It wasn't.
