An exiD tsi ivo slang oxjui'ssiim is that of '.sheik" as applied . to a coi'taiii type of young num. Also girls of a .somewhat similar t mperiiincnl are referral to ns ":-!ieljas." Dr. Laforge, speaking before the American institute of homeopathy in Chicago, suggest ed that a sheik was a handsome young man of the matinee idol type, who has a violent aversion to work and who wears quite pro nounced styles of clothing. Girls of the similar type can also be recognized by extreme styles of clothing and b autii'ication. Names and phrases by which such people are known vary from year to year, but the type always exists. Men of much the same kind were formerly called "dudes." The world appreciates neat ness and attention to dress, but when men begin to wear clothes to fascinate the other sex, common sense recoils. Idleness and lack of ln'i'h aims are the conditions that produce people of this t) pe. The insurgent impulses of -youth demand some form of ex pression, if they are directed into wholesome athletics and useful lines of work, the desire for achievement finds expression in a rational way. lint there are many fellows of an idb type, who in their lazy hours of leisure turn to conquest of the female sex as the form of achievement that appeals to them. A superfluity of extravagantly fin? clothes is one favorite method for dazzling the women folks. The fellows of this type revel in the game of follow ing young womanhood, and they take as much satisfaction in this form of sport as a healthful minded boy will get out of athletic or business success. The girls of a similar type show the s;:mo charai lerisfics. Parents of children who display these tendencies should watch out that they do not get much time for idleness. o Ml'ST GET O. K. ON LEVY. The O. K. of a new commission is necessary before any county, district or city tax levy can be valid for I'.'Zl taxes, says the Oregon Voter. Officers of the various ta-!e ying bodies are just awakening to that fact. When they are fully awake there . t will be some scrambling very much in contrast with the attitude of sL'epy indifference or sneering defiance row manifested by some of the lax-levying bodies. The body whose O. K. must be attached to the tax levy is the Tux Supervising and Conservation Commission of each county. Governor Pierce only recently com pleted tiie appointments of thoe commissions. The published re niarks of members appointed indicates that some of then have not the faintest idea of what they promised to do when they took their oath of office. A mess of work is to be performed by each of these commissions and by each tax-levying body between now and Oct. 1. The law clearly specifies just what each commission must demand of each tax-levying body in the way of information. To compile this information will be a chore that will' wrinkle many a brow. After Oct. 1 come the hearings on the various budgets' Xo tax for l!il!l will be valid unless it is levied according to the procedure clearly specified in this new law. "No tax levy shall be extended upon any assessment and tax roll except as herein provided, and any tax levy extended' contrary to the provisions of , this ad shall lie null and void." So the new law provides. Taxing bodies which wish to have income throuii will do well to peruse the new law and start in educating the new arbiters of their fate. o ', ; A good .start has been made by the city council toward con st I'd- t in;; a bri'h o to l'inpiua Park. It is now hoped that the project can be succe--.-.fully carried out without further inltr foience from all (oncinvd. The mailer rests with the city council and a great majority of the people have the fullest confidence in the members to that extent that their judgment will receive approval in furthering and carrying to a successful con clusion the ery important enterprise now under consideration by thai beuv.

This Is the rry of individual and xcviral civic organizations afler a imiiibiT of crasliRn of (r.iliiB and au-tomoMlt-B at rail anil highway in trrmctinnH have taken their toll in druth ilurinR the last f w weeks. At present there are said to be everal thousand grade crossUiKs 1" Los Aiik'eles county nlonc, and 750 of these are extremely daiiKerous to pi'dixtrians and aulo:nollln Iraffie. according to a statement isHU.d by enKlneers luvostlgatinf vrado cro-iii-s in ail effort to eltVct their ulti niale elimination. Of the additional thounanils of dntiKerourt cropsinna ill southern Cal ilornla n'ne of them are known to the traveling public an veritable "d.ath traps." Kveryone of these "traps" could be made safe, according to K. K. K.isl, highway engineer of the Au tomobile club of southern California, who has made au exhaustive study of the situation. Changing them into safe crosBlngs would not cost much, either, East says. "Oil the crossing north of Ocean side,'' Kast points out, "the paltry expenditure of $5.0H0 would reme dy the. menace and save I'O lives in 10 years.- Twenty persons have been killed on that spot since the highway was built in 1913." The dangerous cro.-sing at Pomo na was taken by East as another il lustration. There the county high way crosses the railroad tracks four times in two miles. This danger could be relieved by merely .chang ing the highway, which would be comparatively cheap, Kast said. The I'omona crossing is used continually by lartre busses carrying from 20 to ;0 children. Several bad accidents are said to have happened on some of these crossings. Kniiineers are unanimous in con sidering dangerous nearly every i-ros::lng on the roads leading to the beach, where traffic, is heavier than elsewhere. On the beach lines more trains operate than over the inland routes anil they run fast. This, plus the number of automobiles driven on the beach roads, makes a dan gerous combination, the engineers claim. Itelocation of the railroad tracks at Cardiff on the San IMcgo road would eliminate two dangerous crossings there, the engineers claim. Several years ago when the cross ings were built It was taken for granted that because the trains car ried the greater part of t lie traffic they would be given the right of way. Times have changed since then and it is a debuted question whether the opposite is true. An official check was made on one cio;sii;g recently and showed the fol lowing result: During a period starting at X a. m. and ending at p. m. 11.74:1 ve hicles used the highway, while 411 trains used the r.iils. The trains were made up of one, two anil threo c.ir capacity. SMALL IIAK.IIIKI; M'AI.KEH The eiht mouth old daughter, Irene, of Mr. and Mrs. L.

Aug. 21 There is a plague of grasshoppers in tlm vicinity of Kalispell, Klut- head county. Molilalia, and author ities of that town have written to ollcials here asking If It is possible to procure a lot of young seagulls from Great Salt Lake to do away with the pesls. Flathead county is said to nossess Ideal feeding and nesting grounds for the birds. Seagulls are Bacred to I'tah. They come in numbers annually from the Pacific ocean to nest on the six is lands in the lake. In pioneer days, when the settlers were about to harvest their first crops in the Great Salt Lake valley there came a scourge or grassnop pers which the seagulls devoured. Hence the birds are under stato pro tection. On the Mormon eTempl block there is a large monument erected to them. Whether Kalispell will get sea gulls from I'tah or not Is a ques tion for the state fish uuil game de partment to decide. HONOLULl'. T. H..
