"Support the Warehouse" VIII be the
Motto at Ogden Convention.

Support the warehouse" Will be one
of the slogans at the forthcoming wool
growers convention In Ogden. The
warehouses have been constructed at
great expense. principally for the ac-
commodation and advantage of the small
grower. and now the warehouse promot-
ors are going to urge upon all the I'M
portonce and necessity OF supporting the
some.
The practise among certain wool buy
crs of jumping into the field month or
so prior to the wool clipping season
and by Offering a slight advance in price
picking up In the aggregate n vast
amount of wool. is to receive check.
Last year. for instance even though
high prices were received for the crop.
1t Is stated that even higher prices would
have been obtained had the warehouses
been more generally used, thereby avoid
ing the middlemen.
Buyers have already been out offering
as high as 2sh cents per pound for tho
1910 clip, and many contracts have been
signed at this price. yet it Is claimed the
use of the general warehouses In Chi
cago even under these circumstances Will
rebound to the general good of tho wool
growers OF this intermountain country.

HAPPY AGAIN THE VICTIM.
Latest Paragraph In Chapter OF Accl-
dents Involves an Outraged Pup.

Spot don't mind having il rubbed in
occasionally by Happy Hooligan. and
will stand almost any old thing. but
when Happy. together with five of tho
Hooligan kids, tries to maui him under
the runners Of big bob-sled. Spot
thinks It's time to assert his nina.
The worm turned Tuesday and of
course Happy was the victim.
This Salt Lake Happy. in the arid
desert of common language called Ray
Penrose. is a 9-year-old hopeful whose
dad is called Edward. and VINO Is
more or less distinguished member of
the newspaper fraternity Tuesday
Happy and the kids were having all
sorts of n good time coastng on the
Second avenue hill Spot did his best to
keep out OF the way. but Happy
thought 1t WAS fun TO steer the big sled
ut the unhappy Spot. Happy has an
other thought now that beats the orig
inal one all to slivers.
Spot forgot all about rewards. past
favors. love of humanity. and a num-
ber of other things with which he Is
ordinarily endowed When the sled
nIpped Oft what little tall he had left 1t
was all over He growled and the
BerScrker rage came over him. He
charged the coasters who fed for their
lives along a side street Passing up
the kids Spot selected Happy, of
course. as the target of his rage. The
consequence is that a fond mother and
q detected dad are wondering just how
a lacerated arm is going to come out.
The doctor says there Is nothing serious
but the parents look into the future and
ask themselves. What neXt?"
Ray Penrose has had a very check
cred career in the nine years which he
