Boys Start
On Camping
Expedition


Bright and early at o'clock tomor-
row morning. 27 youngsters will start
from the Y. NJ c. A. building for their
10 days outing in the mountains at
Krutz cabin. above Mill creek. The
leaders left at $50 this morning and
are preparing camp for the boys who
are to go up tomorrow.
A boys camp is a novel thing for this
part of the country, but in older
places. where the association work is
better known, it is an annual event and
one which the boys look forward to
with much pleasure. The fact that the
local institution was able to show
thoroughly just what the camp would
accomplish, has resulted in the trip be-
ing taken by almost 80 boys. Next year,
doubtless, the number will be much
larger.
The camp is primarily in charge of
Hugh A. Martin, boys secretary of the
Y. M. c.. A. and Fred D. Applegate,
rhysical director But in addition to
these two, there will be several other
Adults in the camp, to be known as
leaders These are j. P. Henderson,
Ray Cation, O. c. Hubley and Allan
Winans. These men will have charge
of the boys while in camp and to them
the boys must apply for permission to
do anything in the way of hunting, fish
ing or making expeditions into the
woods.
William Brown has been engaged to
take care of the culinary end of the
filled up three times a day with good,
wholesome food. He is a cook of much
experience.
The first load of camp parapherna-
liz went up this morning and the rest
goes up with the boys tomorrow All
the leaders, except Martin and Wi
rsns, went up today and are preparing
the camp for the lads who go tomor-
row. A stove, tables, bedding and all
the necessities for the simple life were
taken. but there are to be few luxu-
ries in camp for the next 10 days.
Following are the names of the boys
Whi will leave the association building
tomorrow morning at 5 o'clock: Ross
Atherton, Harper Joy, Philip Hoffman,
George Quinn, Bruce Craft, Kenneth

Primary Law
PunCtured

BELLINGHAM, Wash. Aug. 3.-The
socialists won a fight for free filings.
when Judge Neterer handed down a
decision overruling the demurrer of
County Attorney Miller to their writ
secured from the court and made op-
erative the mandate ordering the au-
ditor to file their declarations of can
didacy without charge. BY this decision
section of the direct primary law is
declared imperative and unconstitu-
tional. The decision states that under
the title of an act must cover and in
clude all provisions and clauses of
the act. The matter of filing fees is
not mentioned in the title of the direct
primary statute. Another point is that
the act makes no provision for the ap-
plication of the fees collected to de-
fraying of primary election expenses.
but instead provides that the money
shall go into the general fund. This,
1t is held, renders the tax arbitrary and
unconstitutional.
er the sliding scale system would be
unconstitutional or not, provided the
lawmakers had specified that the
money raised by the assessing of the
fees should be devoted to the pay
ment of the expenses incurred by the
election. Neither did the court hold
that the section is imperative for the
reason that it places restrictions upon
qualified electors who might want to
run for office, as the supreme courts
of other states have held that in or
der to make the elections practical
the lawmakers have a right TO impose
certain restrictions.
The point has been raised in other
states where the direct primary law
is in effect and the question brought
up as to whether any distinction can
be made between a candidate who has
money and is willing to pay for the
privilege of having his name on the
ballot and one who has no money or
who is unwilling to pay for the honor,
especially so when the law specifies
that a man duly elected to office mus;
qualify.
The decision means that the social
lists and democrats will be able to get
their names on the primary ballot
without paying the filing fee already
posted by the republicans who have
filed. The candidates who have paid
in their money have no recourse az
law and cannot get back their money.
Their only hope is that the prosecuting
attorney and the county commissioners
will decide to give it back, as th7y
cannot collect if they go to court.

James Casey and Frank Weston, two
convicts at the state penitentiary, who
had been employed on the road con-
struction gang within the prison
grounds, made their escape about 2:45
o'clock this afternoon, and posses in
automobiles, accompanied by blood
hounds, are securing the surrounding
country at $3.50.
The men made quiet getaway and
are believed to have had several min
utes start of the officers. About $50
men were employed in the gang, and
for this reason the absence of the two
men from the gang was not at once
noted, but how the men escaped from
the prison grounds is mystery.
James Casey was known on the
prison records as No. 4725. He was
sent up from Stevens county for bur-
eIary, having an indeterminate sen-
tence. He entered the penitentiafy

WINNIPEG, Aug. 3.-Reports re-
oeived over the railroad wires from
ooints near the Great Crows Nest val
ley fire today indicate the flames are
still roaring over the country and that
DAMAGE will probably be greater than
was expected last night. 1t is estin ated

whole burned district will be twenty
FIVE millions.
The loss of life is variously esti-
mated at four to seven hundred.
Th.re is much suffering and desti-
tuition.
Acting Mayor Harvery called a
meeting of the board of control this
morning. Already subscriptions for the
relief fund are rolling in.
It is possible that the full extent of
the loss of life and property will not
be known for several days.

ARE MICROBES
IN YOUR SCALP
Many Explanations of Badness Havi
rect Is That OF Microbes.

The term "microbe" refers to
parasitic plant or fungi also called
bacteria. A microbe is so small that
it can only be detected by the aid
of a microscope. Some microbes are
harmless, while others produce vari-
Gus diseases, and, derive their titles
through the form of their growth
or because of the diseases they create
which diseases are infectious or con-
tagious.
Prof. Unna of Hamburg, Germany,
and DR.. Sabourand, the leading der
matologist of France. discovered that
microbe caused badness and their
theory has time and time again been
amply verified through research ex-
periments carried on through the OBJ
servation of eminent scientists. This
microbe lodges in the Sebum, which
is the natural hair oil, and If permit
ted TO flourish, it destroys the hair
follicles. and in time the pores en-
tirely close and the scalp gradually
takes on a shiny appearance. When
this happens there is no hope of the
hair growth being revived.
Dandruff is a contagious disease
which a microbe causes, and later
produces itching scalp, falling hair
and badness. Dandruff is caused by
thn 11,iornhn 1icoogino hA
matter, which dries up and scales
off. Sometimes the cuticle surround
ing the hair allows the natural oil
of the hair to force its way between
the flakes of scarf skin direct to the
hair, and the microbe being between
the flakes force them apart and they
scale off as dandruff.
We have a remedy which positively
will remove dandruff, exterminate the
microbe, promote good circulation in
the scalp, tighten and revitalize the
hair roots, grow hair and cure bald
ness We back up the statement on
our own personal guarantee that this
remedy, which is called Rexall 1913"
Hair Tonic, will be supplied free of
all cost to the user if it fails to do as
we promise. 1t will also restore gray
and faded hair to it's original rich,
glossy color, if loss of color has been
caused by disease yet it is in no sense
a dye. Rexall 1913" Hair Tonic &C.
complishes these results by making
every hair root, follicle and pigment
gland strong and active. and by slim
ulating natural flow of coloring pig
ment into the hair cells.
Rexall 1913" Hair Tonic is entirely
free from grease or sediment, is ex-
ceedingly pleasant to use, and will
not gum the hair or soil the clothing
or pillows.
