SUCCESS OR FIXTURE,
LUCK OR FOREsIGHI

No matter whether or not luck is essential 10
success we can all do much to help ourselves bv
taking a look into the future and following the
old trodden path Of building home Success
does not necessarily mean the accumulation of
wealth wealth and happiness also essential
and nothing helps more to attain the latter than
the planning and building Of home. It means
the investment of your money in values YOU
know something about, and while there is not the
possibility Of quick riches, You have the assurance
Of your investment being safe. From our exper-
fence of years in the lumber business we believe
now as good time to build as will ever be pre-
scented and we want to talk over with you anv
plans you may have III mind for building home.

WHAT TO DO WITH WOMEN
IS PROBLEM At SPOKANE

Spokane, Wash, July f2.-What to
do with women who will be called to
serve as jurors with men when the
Spokane county superior court con.
venes next September, is one of the
vexing problems confronting the five
members of the bench, headed by
Judge Henry L. Kennan. The various
clubs in Spokane have given out state
ments that their members are ready
and willing to do jury duty. The
judges hope modern Solomon OF
Portia will come forward to unravel
the tangles presented by these pos
sible situations:
If IL women are selected to try q
case and six disagree from the other
six.
If four women decided they are right
in civil action and six men jurors
hold opposite views.
If a mixed jury of men and womer
is kept together in felony case until
all are agreed upon verdict.
If six women and six men are lock
ed in room to determine the guilt oil
innocence of a person charged with :
capital crime?
Relating to service of jurors in the
superior court the law adopted by the
legislature of 1911, says
"Any woman desiring to be excused
from jury service may claim exemp
ton by signing written or printed
notice thereof and returning same tC
the sheriff before the date of appear
ance, and if exemption is claimed by
reason of sex, no fee shall be allowed
for her appearance"
The law provides that the jury
sworn to try the issues in felony case:
shall be kept together and in custody
of tbe officers of the court except dur
ing the actual progress of the trial
thus putting it squarely up to the
judges to solve the problem allowing
the question to solve itself, il the wo
men who desire to serve as jurors car
not settle 1t themselves.

In the last two of the three similar
contests the Englishmen have been
beaten easily by total of IL points to
Is, and in the first meet, in 1899, they
barely won by the margin Of one point.
Notwithstanding this showing, it was
the Englishmen who renewed the idea
of a meeting this year. Harvard and
Yale promptly accepted, and on June
oath last eighteen sprinters, runners,
jumpers and weight-throwers-the pick
of the track teams of the two universi-
ties-embarked at New York for an
other invasion of England. confident
that nothing less than an upset by sea-
sickness, climatic change or accident
could prevent the annexation of an
other international event. Late re-
ports from New Brighton, the seaside
resort near London, where the invad-
ers have had ten days training, have
indicated no such ill-luck to blight the
assurance of conquest.
