DERTAKEN TO EMPLOY
SUCH OFFICIAL.

Has Ever Undertaken Such a
Position at Big Salary.

DETROIT, Mich, June 15.-Michi
gan is by all odds the gr5atest and
most glorious state in all Uncle
Sans dOminions. It's climate is per-
feet, it's health conditions superior
and its soil productive beyond the
dreams of ayarice.~ In Michigan, life is
one grand sweet song, without flaw
or blemish to mar the mighty anthem
of Thanksgiving in which it's citizens
daily join All this on the authority
of Miss Nellie Revell, who today as
sumed her duties as the duly or
ganized press agent of this most
marvellous commonwealth
When Miss Revell got ION the job
of booming Michigan today, she es-
tablished a precedent. This is the
first time in history that any state has
employed press agent and the first
time a woman has ever BEEN employed
to undertake so big a task at so large
a salary. (This, also, on the authority
of Miss Revell, who is not overlooking
anything) Readers of papers
throughout the middle west may ex-
pect to find many columns of stories

allegcry, The Servant in the House.
Never before have the people of
Walla Walla listened to such a mes
sage from the stage or witnessed a
mora striking revelation of the power
of religion from the lines of a theatri-
cal production. At the fall of the
curtain the audience is not lsft to
chant the air of a catchy song or pass
fleeing comment on a scenic achieve
ment but to think, to ponder and to
follow up the authors magic words
with silent heart searchings after the
solution of the great problems of life.
