c EATTLE, Aug. 28.-The big
- event of today in the state Of
Washington from the standpoint of
the Salt Lake high school cadets was
the cruise of the good ship WaiaiIeal
Of the Inland Navigation squadron.
The cadets were aboard the ship
aforesaid. Nobody knows how to pro-
nounee the name or where it came
from, and they had the time Of their
bright young lives.
The time set for the departure was g
o'clock this morning, plenty early enough
for Youngsters who didn't lease the Pay
streak until 1918 last night this especially
when one remembers that they had to
leave camp at 8 o'clock in order to be at
the dock i'm time. But the ship didn't
get away until 1880. much to the GRIEF

cluded that they would rather put in the
day seeing the fair, and they did, but the
cadets nevertheless enjoyed each and
