lNTER-SCHOOL DEBATE.
HOquiam and Aberdeen Hiah Schools
Meet, and Aberdeen Wins,

In the Congregational church in this
city, on Friday evening, the High school
debate took place, the contestants being
chosen from the High schools of Ho-
quiam and Aberdeen.
The question for debate was "Resolyed:
That it is for the best interests of civiliza-
ton that the integrity OF the Chinese
empire be preserved" and was handled
in manner by the contestants which
showed considerable skill in debate, and
great deal OF labor in preparing ma
terial with which to combat the argu.
ments that might be presented on either
side OF the question. Magazines, consul
lar reports, general statistics and history,
all contributed to the help of the cause,
and to say that the debate was interest.
ing and instructive is a mild expression.
Hoquiam, the affirmative, was repre-
sented by Miss Mabel Tohelmin, John
Richardson, Jr., and Miss Elsie Carr,
who spoke in the order named. Aber.
deem, the negative, was represented by
Fritz Betz, Miss Florence Semm and
Clarence Hopkins.
Much enthusiasm was shown bv all
present, the two schools giving utterance
to their yells when occasion demanded
it. Aberdeen not forgetting that Hoquiam
was the guest of the evening.
j. w. Clark OF this city, acted as
chairman, and Messrs. T. S. Thompson.
of Chehalis, Eldridge Wheeler of Monte.
sano, and G. E. Carroll, of Cosmopolis,
being the judges. The status of the
merits of the contestants was shown in
the fact that two of the judges decided
in favor of Aberdeen and one in favor of
Hoquiam.
The instrumental music furnished by
the Misses Huntley and Nettleton, and
the vocal chorus by the Aberdeen High
school, under the direction of Miss Cook,
during intervals OF the debate, were we'll
rendered and were appreciated by the
audience.
Prof. Cook is we'll pleased with the
outcome OF this first inter. school debate,
as the undertaking was entirely at his
suggestion.

the application of the knife and that it is within the power of modern surgery to change the trend of the life of the embryo criminal and direct his or her tendencies into the paths that lead to commendable and useful citizenship. In other words, an attempt will be made to accomplish by the knife what home in- f1uence, or the lack of it, has failed to do for the child. Of course there are ex- captions but the instances are few, very few. where a child starts on the wrong path when the home influences, during the years when lives are nodded, are all they ought to be. The number of such children to come under the surgeon $ knife will be infnitesimal but if the doctors are really correct in their theory, there is possibility of doing almost in estimable good to the youthful depraved, the waifs of the street and others who have fallen into bad ways because of the lack of proper government and environ ment.

Pepsikola Tablets of Priceless Value
 in Relieving Indigestion.

Health is everything. Many n mil lonaire would willingly part with half his fortune for perfect digestion. Riches, fame, and the realization of every desire cannot create contentment if indigestion is making ones existence miserable. When w. H. Camp tells you that in all his experience he never knew anything so sure to relieve sour stomach, coated tongue, dizzy spells, poor appetite, lassi- tude and fatigue due to imperfect diges- tion, there must be some good reason for his confidence, and there is. Dozens of chronic old dyspeptics right here in Canaan who despaired of ever getting relief have tried Pepsikola Tablets on Mr. Camps recommend and to day are completely cured. Moreover, n druggist could not afford to keep on recommend ingan indigestion remedy unless it really will cure, for you would mighty soon lose confidence and trade at some other store. Pepsikola Tablets are a grand nerve tonic; they will give you new energy and new ambition, improve your appetite, strengthen your digestive. or gans, and unless they give you perfect digestion Mir. Camp will gladly pay your quarter back.

GREATER CANAAN AND SEWERAGE

At the special meeting of the Canaan fire district held Saturday, the voters declared by their ballots, that they are in favor of sewerage system for the district. The vote was S9 for and 6 against, almost to 1.proportion.
 Forty-five voters constitute but small portion of the legally qualified voting population in the district and the fact that larger number did not attend the meeting is taken to mean, by the citizens who are advancing the sewerage project, that those who were absent are favora- ply disposed toward the proposition. It is assumed that had they, been opposed to sewage disposal, they would have been in attendance at the meeting to register their protests.
 AS has before been stated, the Beard of Trade, which organization has, from the moment of it's formation, thoroughly believed that Canaan must have sew craze before it's industries can be in creased, or before people looking for new residential locations can be induced to look with favor upon the village, has made diligent inquiry to determine just what the public sentiment is on the question, and has arrived at the conclu- sion that there is not one person in ten but believes that the partial system now suggested must be installed if Canaan s future is to be one of progress.
 If the system is installed, the Board of Trade will have done a worthy work It will consider that It has accomplished much for the public veal. It will not have lived in vain if it never accom- plishes another thing for Canaan. But the Board will not stop there. It was organized for the purpose of beneftting Canaan and it means business. When it can assure desirable industries or prospective manufactures that sanitary conditions are what they ought to be in the village, the Board will adopt system atic and persistent methods for bring ing to a state of reality. a greater Canaan

Bees Like Fruit

Hornets of various sorts are attacking all kinds of maturing fruit, especially berries at Bristol. In some cases the yellowjackets were so numerous that it has been impossible to pick the fruit. Early pears and apples have also suf- fered from the attacks. Good sized apples are shown half of which are eaten away. The hornets now threaten ruin to vineyards in some parts of the town.
