Hiirrett, local tailor, has just discovered it. .Mr. Hiirrett, however, has discov ered the way out. An n result, the family chicken" have been oatst adrift and Ihe foot of the family has taken over their coop. Itut this is felting ahead of Ihe story.

Williams, an 18-year-old youth in the county jail on a burglary charge, fellow priHonera diHeovered a real poet, according to Donald Young, named by .Judge yitipworth to repre sent the prisoner. After talking with the young man, attorney Young found him to be a profound thinker, poncn md of a good education, and a keen faculty of imagination. Williams wag arrested iu Eugene during the Suapp brother)' carnival here, when he Mole food from an ice box in a local home. "1 haven't any alibi," was his ex planation. "When a man's hungry it just dulls his idea of right and wrong, that's all." lie walked from Portland without food. (.'ell mates in the county jail find the boy an interesting convcrHation alist, and freipienlly gather around him to listen to his uni(iie views of life. Jle writes poema on request, and after investigating their context and the youth's methods of writing, At torney Young declares he is convinced they were original. Two of tho boy's poems, given to Mr. Young by a prisoner, are as fol lows: Smiling Sklos Pear Woman of the laughing eyes, Ynu nro to me tho summer sklea That warm the earth beneath their feet Wlthtgentle, kindly, loving heat. That cheers my spirits from despair, And make my thoughts a daily prayer That you will smile, and never know The winter's icu and sleet and snow. Oh summer skies of truest blue, Hincerewt 1 hanks I give to you. I'.et me remain beneath your eyes, lust kiss me gently, summer skies.

INSritK WITH lIKNUr TflOMP, SPECIAL CHICKEN DINNER SUNDAY 1 Short Orders At All Hours Spocinlizinir on Steaks and Chops Cigars, Cigaivttos ami Candies The Toastwitch Shop Open All Night .T. "V. Harriett, NOT PRESENT iED High school fraternities have no place in the modern high school where a well-defined, carefully directed social program is carried out, declart-d Dean Marion Brown, of Oakland uni versity hitch school, of Oakland, Cal. Miss Hrown has made a special stuuy of this phase of high school life, and is regarded ns a leader in high school soci.il work In California. Miss Brown was on the program of the state edu cational conference held here this week-end. High school fraternities filled a need before there was ony attempt to direct recreation and social phases of high schools," says Dean BrowD, "but at present, where they exist, they are nothing but luke-worm imi tations of college fraternities. They tend to produce snobbishness, and do little constructive work." .Attempts to etiunn out high school secret fraternities as) meeting with j some success in California, where i there is a state law against them. I says .Dean Brown, and it Is hoped that their extinction can be nccom-j plished. j Dancing In Bchcols Is a much dis cussed question in California at pros- j ent, saj B Denn Brown, who declares j herself wholly in favor of supervised! high school dances. "We are supposed ' to teach the young people eoeial be havior, nnd since dancing plays a large part in the modern social program, the place to teach proper methods of conduct Is in the Bchool," says the dean. "If tho students are carefully guided in dancing, as well ns in other phases, they will not be lifcely to mnke mistakes that often lead to embarrass ment and trouble later. A wholesome, well rounded pro gram, that includes club Activity and dancing is recommended by the dean for every high school. This should be taken in hand by an expert who un derstands individual case problems & well an general social phases, she points out.
