If you had been born in a good many countries in tills old world, no one would care whether yon ever went to school or not. Probably there wouldn't be a school to go to. • Even in our own country there are more than a few states which wouldn't have cared VERY MICH whether you went to school or not. That is, tlley would build cheap schools, and hire poor teachers, and make it hard Instead of easy for you to become educated, intelligent men and women. Maylie that Is why some little for- eigners study so hard while little Americans fool and play. But is the state of Wash- ington, the grown-ups feel NO TIME WASTED! There was no time killed this year in starting school. The teachers reported at 8:30 o'clock and the pupils at >• Books were given out and classes started. "In past years the pupils were generally allowed the first day to get accustomed to their surround- ings, classes starting the second day," said Superintendent Geiger. "This year there was nothing to prevent immediate work. So It was started." The system of session rooms used at the Stadium blgh school last year will be used in both the high schools. The room in which the student has his first class will be his session room. Girls and boya will be segre- gated as much as possible. RAGTIME BANNED "There's a Little Spot of Love Still Burning" will not be wel- comed by W. G. A Ball, supervi- sor of music, this year as proper and elevating music for high school students despite its com- lielling force and melody. The ban has been put on the so-called popular staff. Choruses and orchestras will be developed to stimulate the in- terest in good music, according to Supervisor Bell. A trained chorus of 10,000 voleea and a band of 150 pieces are two of his hopes. He will develop a plan for the graded schools later. A supply ot Vlctrolaa will be placed ln the schools, enabling the young musicians to under- stand and appreciate the funda- mentals of music The teachers will Instruct tha pupils the cor- rect method of breathing and reading notes. places W. J. Hudson, who will teach ln Stockton, Cal. • \u2666 • Two Instructors Take Positions in Valley Mary a McDonnell former in- structor of music in the Whit- man school resigned to become supervisor of music and drawing ln the Puyallup city schools, while I'.niia Gay will take the same position in Ortlng. Miss Harriet Fraser, formerly^ doing departmental work in the Lowell Bchool, will assume charge of the physical training work in the Pocatello, Idaho, schools. • * • WillPut End to Flim-Flam Scheme Several cases have been brought to the attention of the school board by parents objecting to the exorbitant fees their chil- dren claim for enrollment every year. On one occasion a boy "ex- plained" that gym fees and var- ious others would require $12. This Is absolutely incorrect, said Superintendent Gelger today. It is not the desire to keep children out, by charging them high fees. They are merely misrepresenting facts. differently. They build the best schools, hire the best teachers, give the best courses OF ANY STATE IN THE UNION. And of all the cities is this state of Waeliington, there is none Unit ran make Tacoma take a back seat. So right here at home, yon young folks have the BEST CHANCE IN THE WHOLE WORLD of making some- thing of yoarselvea. That costs your dady s whole lot of money, in taxes, but your daddy is mighty glad to spend thnt money. Yon see, it's for YOU. So it's up to you to ap- preciate what Is done for you. If the little foreigner works hard, you should work harder. Ue good and thankful that tlie schools you go to are the best schools in the whole world, and tlie you be GOOD ENOUGH LITTLE PUPILS TO MATOH THOSE SCHOOLS. CATHOLIC SCHOOLS ARE OPEN St. Leo's for boys, Holy Rosary, St. Edward's hall, Aqulnaa aca- demy and Visitation academy all opened today for the fall term, promptly at 9 o'clock. This year showed tbe largest Catholic en- rollment in the history of the schools. O.A St. Leo's school, conducted by the Jesuit Fathers of St. Leo's church, showed the greatest change of any of the schools. Father George Weibel will replace Father E. H. Brown, recently pas- tor of St. Leo's and president of the teaching staff. Father Joseph McKenna, recently of Seattle col- lege, will be the new principal. Others of the teaching staff are: Rev. Joseph Malaise, Rev. Joseph Werner of St. Louis uni- versity and Meesers. Walsh and Gebhard. Four Sisters of St. Francis will teach ln the lower grades.

It was the blacksmith shop and Australia that produced Bob Fitz- siiniiiiiiiH and Les Darcey, from the seme places, Is another Fitz. Darcey claims to be the middle- weight champion, but there are several others who have just as good a claim. Darcey, however, put a spike in his claim and put one of the claimants out of the running by laying Eddie McGoorty away ln 16 rounds. This Darcey persons, besides being a blacksmith like Fitz, la like the freckled one in two oth- er ways. He can hit like the kick of a mule and above he waist he is built like a hea/yweight. Fitz was built a good deal like a lightweight below the waist, but with heavyweight chest, shoulders and arms he was able to produce a great enough wallop N.W.

CALIFORNIA GOLF STARS ARE AT IT DEL MONTE, Cal., Sept. 7. — The first round of the California golf championships was played yesterday, with olose scores fea- turing ths better players. Heln- rlch Schmidt, who won from Jack Jevne of Los Angeles In a superb game. Is plsyiag Jack Neville to- day. Tuesday, Sept. 7,1.15. SAYS the man, who's learned how good rich tobacco really is: "Tie your bull on the outside and come on in where the good tobacco is. ' You've been wasting your oppor- tunity with unnecessary grinding and spitting; rest your jaws and content your soul with a little nibble of the Real Tobacco Chew." A littlechew of pure, rich, mellow tobacco—seasoned and sweetened just enough— cuts out so much of the grinding and spitting. f-?J ASK YOUR DEALER FOPW'B CUT **i CHEWING TOBACCO.IT IS THE NEW TOBACCO CHEW-CUT LONG 3HPED. \T Take less than one-quarter the old size chew. II ft will be more satisfying than a mouthful of ordinary L tobacco. Just take a nibble of it until you find the I strength chew that suits you, then see how easily and evenly the real tobacco tsste comes, how it satisfies, bow much less you have to spit, how few chews you take to be tobaooo satisfied. That's why it is Th* Real Tobacco Chew. That's why it ooeta less in the end. The taste of pure, rich tobacco does not need to be covered up. Aa, •XOCSS of licorice and sweetening makes you spit too much. One small chew takes the place of two big Chews of the old kind. ((Notice how the salt brings oat the rich tobacco taste.) , WEYMAN-BRUTON COMPANY, SO Union Square, New York Gtj BAT NELSON CAN'T COME BACK JUAREZ, Mex., Sept. 7.—Bat Nelson, boxing on the 19tli anni- versary of the beginning of his Ting career, fell a victim yester- day afternoon to Bobby Vaugh of Dalles, Tex., a much younger and considerably ligbter oppon- ent.
