SENIORS BEAT THE
UNDER-GRADS
Good Game on High School
Grounds Yesterday
Score 3 to 0.

The seniors and under graduates
played rip snorting football game
yesterday afternoon at the high
school grounds The seniors won a
victory by virtue of Captain Foster S
lusty right leg. He kicked a field
goal from the 25 yard line making
the score to 0 in favor of the SEMI
OrS.
The under graduates threatened
the seniors goal several times, but
were unable to register single tai
ly. Once when Floyd Ross made an
end run of 40 yards, it looked as
though he were going to make a
touchdown, but Captain Foster
downed him a short distance from
the goal AMI saved the day for the
seniors.
There were many other sensation
al features to the game and, as may
be judged from the score. the game
was really more interesting than
most of the walkaway games played
with visitors during the season. 1t
is probable that these games will be
frequent and we'll attended between
now and the time when Wenatchee
will play Oak Park of Chicago, if
that date is arranged.

Chelan Man Will Get His
Vancouver Medal With

F. l.. Post & Sons of Chelan enjoy
the unusual distinction of having had
matter of their personal business
affairs discussed in meeting of the
Presidents cabinet at the White
House. When Mr.. Post learned that
the gold medal which had been
awarded to his firm by the Canadian
apple show had been held up for $45
revenue duty he at once wrote to
Hon. James Wilson, secretary of ag-
riculture, to enlist his assistance in
having it released if possible. Mr..
Wilson made a prompt and cOurte-
Gus reply, in which he promised to
give the matter his personal atten-
ton; and few days later, in sec
ond letter, informed Mr.. Post that
he had taken up the matter of the
medal in a meeting of the President S
cabinet and that the secretary of the
treasury, under whose department
the customs duties are collected, had
been instructed to see that the med
al was at once released to its owner.

GROWERS SHOULD.
COMBINE
La Toilette Declares Tri
state Association Must
Work tremendously.

Congressmar-elect w. L. La Fol-
lette of Pullman declares the apple
growers of Washington, Oregon AMI
Idaho should get together to adver-
tise their fruit and the country.
Il expect to return from Wash
ington in time to attend the meeting
of the state horticultural society in
January. and | shall work for the
organization of the proposed apple
selling association. Idaho and Ore
gon can grow just as fine apples as
Washington, but | believe that Wash
ington has more acreage of apple
land than both the other states COM
bined.
Each of the three states Is go
ing to cut a big figure in the apple
production of the United States, but
if they commence to fight each other
knocking each others products, the
whole section will suffer.
Rivalry should be encouraged.
but jealousy must be condemned.
Selling. Association
Congressman La Toilette declares
that the result of an apple selling
association, along the same lines as
the famous orange-selling associa-
ton of Riverside county, Cal, would
be to teach the apple growers to
take better care of the orchards,
that it would be the means of their
getting better prices for their crops
and that uniform advertising of the
whole Pacific Northwest rs an apple
country would bring much better re-
suits than could possibly be obtained
if each state should try to advertise
itself to the exclusion Of the others.
Mr. La Toilette says that he believes
the general sentiment OF the orch
ardists is in favor of the associa-
ton and that he has no doubt but
that the apple growers will get to-
gether.

Thirty thousand of these boxes

The postage required to send one

NEXT WEEK
"The Hand of Justice
Monday Night - Com
pany Strengthened.

The Raymond Bell company opens
next Monday night for weeks en-
gagement in repertoire. This COM
pany is great favorite with the We
natchee theatre going public and
comes here this time with new rep
ertoire of q decided higher plane.
The Raymond Bell company has
been greatly strengthened since it
was here, by the. addition of G. E.
Sweatman, an actor who has made
a great reputation in New York City
but who was forced to give up the
work on account of his health. This
he has regained in the west, and
next weeks bill contains several of
his successes.
The opening play is the comedy
dramatic triumph, THE Hand of
Justice play filled with comedy
and real dramatic worth. The spe-
cialties between the acts are better
than ever before. The handsome
Nina l.. Raymond. pianist and sing
er, is one of the sDecialties and the
fact that she is the highest salaried
single performer in vaudeville sing
ing topical songs, speaks for itself.
The old favorite, Curls Butler. has
new songs and stories and Mr..
Sweatman. keeps things going with
a song or two.
