Superstition Causes
Rifle Inventors Wife
To Build Odd House
Prize Contribution
By Alvin Knudson, IS
Gonzoao Hiah School


Near San Jose, Calf, is one OF the
strangest dwellings in the world, the
winchester house.
This weird place was built by Mrs
Sarah l.. Winchester. wife OF the
inventor of the winchester rifle.
After the death Of her husband,
she became intensely afraid that
the ghosts OF people who had been
killed by his rifles would take re-
venge on her. She was told by a
fortune-teller that as long as the
sound of a hammer could be heard
around her house. she would be
safe. Therefore, to keep away the
ghosts, she was continually having
rooms added on to her house.
The house contains 100 rooms, and,
together with several other buildings,
It covers six acres. Although the
house is an oddity. with blind
closets, trapdoors, and secret pas
sageways, it contains many works
of art, The front doors alone are
valued at $4,000.
During the latter part OF her life,
Mrs, Winchester allowed no one ex-
cept her secretary to see her. Even
though she had a large ballroom,
she never used 1t.
The steps in her house were built
only two and one-half inches high,
because she had arthritis, which
prevented her from lifting her feet
as high as an ordinary step.
A few years after her death, the
house was opened to tourists, as 1t
iS now.

Facts learned about air pressure
have been of great help in making
it possible for an aviator to know
how high he goes. The lower the
air pressure. the higher the avi-

The temperatures also must be

cold air weighs more than the same

be taken into account in reaching

| Just Between
Ourselves .
.by Philip H. Love,

Mary Lou and Tommy are twins
aged 13. They look alike, but in
every other way they are as diff
ferent as sister and brother can be-
Mary Louis general average In
school 50 far this year is G, not
because she isn't bright, but because
she doesn't try to. do any better
She's more interested in going to
the movies, or In reading movie
magazines and comic books, than In
studying.
Last semester, she played hooky
three days before her parents found
out about 1t. They punished her
by stopping her allowance for a
week, but she talked Tommy into
lending her half of his. She
hasn't paid him back.
Mary Louis mother worries a great
deal about her.
Il don't know what that girls
coming to-" she complained to her
husband the other night. Shes
just barely getting by in school. ]
can't get her interested in doing
anything around the house. Why
she won't even dry a dish-always
has an excuse to get out Of doing
anything I ask her. You ought to
speak to her"
Mary Louis father spoke to her
but how much good 1t did remains
to be seen.
X Il
Sometimes, Mary Lou is late get
ting home from school. She's
ready with excuses-the streetcars
were tied up, she had to do an
errand for the teacher, or she ran
into friend she hadn't seen for
a long time and, Of course, they had
to talk. But the excuses don't keep
her mother from worrying.
Sometimes, too, Mary Lou stays
out later at night than she should.
Her mother doesn't like her to go
out alone in the evening, but she
finds plenty OF excuses: She mas to
look up something at the library,
or her girl friend wants her to stay
with her while the family is out,
or she and the girl friend want to
go to the movies. Usually, her
mother winds up by letting her go,
but tells her to be careful and to
come home early-and then spends
the evening worrying.
Mother would worry even more If
she knew that Mary Lou sometimes
meets a boy friend instead Of the
girl friend. She doesn't want Mary
Lou to have dates with boys until
she's 16.
Tommy isn't a brain" but he
does his best in school and, so far
this year, has maintained a B aver
age.
He balks at drying dishes, consid-
ering it sissy stuff" but helps his
mother in other ways around the
house. He rarely stays out later
than he's told he can, and he's
nearly ways punctual in getting
home from school. He has never
played hooky.
When he goes out at night, he
really goes where he says he's 60
ing. He doesn't lie; he doesn't talk
back to his parents. and they rarely
have reason to worry about him.
