The four older students have ex-
pressed desire to study Japanese
in the evenings, but it was hello
doubtful that night classes could be
held at this time. The other appli-
cants range in age from 7 to II.
In pre-war days the school boasted
more than a thousand students.
The language school, 1414 Weller

apartment the past few years, will
be given new coat of painting, it
was decided.
Due to the treasurers of the school,

mura, not residing in the city, the
trustees decided on the appointment
of new treasurer, but the naming
of a person was withheld at this
time.

The modern kitchen of today Is
equipped with many convenienccs
to tighten the burdens of home
making. including kitchen ventilat-
ing fans. While the object, of course,
is to remove kitchen odors and
greasy smoke, these fans also keep
kitchens much cooler in the summer.
The newer type fans are truly
works of art, for they are attractive
ly designed to harmonic with mod
ern kitchens. For example, the Am
erican Blower Aeropel fan, shown
above, has won two fine arts awards
for beauty and utility in the home.
These fans are easy to install and
are said to pay for themselves in
a short time in lower cleaning and
decorating costs.

Word Deluge'
Confusing, Says
NiSei Professor

NEW YORK - The teacher today
is confronted with the greatest word
deluge that mankind has ever
known" in the opinion of DR.. Sam
uel Hayakawa of Teachers College,
Columbia University.
In a college lecture, Hayakawa
said the over-abundance of words
to which the reader and radio list
ener must look for meaning is like
a search for real beefsteak in a
carload of baloney."
There are four ways of saying
what one has to say if the message
is to be effectively communicated,
he said. It can be said informative
ly, valuatively, Systematically, or d.
rectively."

Like I said last week, my wife
tried to make liars out of me and
Mr.. Webster by insisting that q
woman can be just as much of a
fisherman as any man.
When finally consented to take
her out and give her a chance to
prove her point, I pulled the awful
boner Instead of taking her to the
Rattle Gulch where it would be
rough on her constitution that she'd
prabably give up fishing for good,
l let my heart get as soft as my
head and took her to an easy
place.
After all, we were In Idaho where
fish come big. Once a man hooked
into whopper in the Snake River,
but try as he may he just couldn't
get it out of the waer. So, finally,
he tied his line to his horse. But the
doggone stubborn fish pulled the
horse right into the river.

up with lunker like that on her first
fishing trip and maybe get jerked
into the river. I wouldn't wish that
on anybody-even II she is my wife.
SO, we went worm dunking for

tackle put the worm on her hook.
(You see, she's allergic to wiggly
worms and she threw the line in
and before I had my line all fixed,
up she came with little perch. SO

hoisted up another one-and another

a chance to even wet my line she
had SO little perch hopping around
in the boat. That did it.
From then on she considered her.

For myself, I took my best fly
rod, good nylon line, finest leader,
and No. IL hooks. And in my bag I
hid, flies, oil pack salmon eggs, fiat
fish and every conceivable sure
fire fish getters. This time I made
sure I caught more fish.
When we got to the Wood River

After telling her to sit on a rock

it was one of those days. No matter
what did or what I used I couldnr
get rise out of them. All afternoon
I tried every trick I learned from
the master fisherman Tom Hirai
but I couldn't get a nibble.
Finally I gave up and came dowr

This should be the end Of the
story but maybe you'd like to know
the final score:

Sailing IRON WEDGES

A. D. writes-"Here is a handy
idea we recently stumbled on by
pure accident. We always have trou-
BILE with new splitting wedges not
wanting to stick when driving them
into green timber, especially when it
is frozen.
"One summer our wedges fell down
from their shelf and landed in an
almost empty salt barrel and when
found badly rusted and pitted,
but as a result of this rust and pit
ting they sure stuck when we used
them. Moral-buy your wedges sew
eral months ahead and store them
where they are exposed to dampness
and salt and your troubles with
jumping wedges are over"
Note by 1. w. D.-This agrees with
the experience of other readers who
have written us on this point. So
don't take too good care of your
wedges.

heavy pressure and handled in heavy
steel bottles or tanks. These can be
set outside the house in the open for
use with bottled gas ranges, water
heaters and so on. This gas will
vaporize satisfactorily at 35 degrees
below zero or lower. All commercial
brands of this type are quite similar
in heating value.
''Then there is butane, a heavier
part of natural gas, which will not
vaporize satisfactorily below zero
Fahrenheit. These are handled and
stored under low pressures in tank
wagons and in underground tanks
and conveyed to the burners some
what like city gas. Butane has a
slightly lower BTU heating value
per pound but a slightly higher per
gallon than propane."

Note by I. w. C.-The only objec-

that the pipe and disks will rust
badly in contact with the salt. Coat
ing them heavily with hard cup
grease would help.

7 feet into a ditch to irrigate about
40 acres of land above the gravity

When the river is too low for the
gravity bitches, the pump installa-

land. About so acres were in sugar
beets this year and ITO acres in bar

The question must be answered
with many provisions and assump-

the amount of time needed to get

Save Irrigating Time.
With Good Equipment
BY H. L. D-USENBERRY

THE JOB OF SPREADING water
on a field for the irrigation of crops
may be either the hardest work on
the farm or the easiest. 1t may be
a task requiring much or very little
experience and skill. 1t may require
many man-hours to irrigate a GER
tain field or it may be done in q
relatively short time.
In other words, when we talk
about requirements in the way of
labor, water and time, there is much

variation. We can
not say to a farmer,
"Your field con-
tains 20 acres and
you have 2k Sec
