That Slogan

The Improvement club some time
ago began an agitation for a slo-
gan which would be appropriate
to Friday Harbor, and which might
give this section wider publicity
and tend to advance its interests.
Two or three have been suggested.
]. A. Mccormick uses "The Cap
ital of San JUAN" when he has
occasion to sign his name when
away from home. 1.-THE City
Among the Isles" is another sug-
gestion. Have you given the sub
ject any thought? 1t may be
interesting to note that the AID.
Club, of Seattle. is offering $50 to
the man, woman or child who furn-
ishes the best motto or slogan for
that city before December 80.
They appreciate what it has done
for other places. and want good
one.

The best money maker on the
farm is the hen. She turns grass IN
to greenbacks, grain into gold, and
from sand and gravel she coins silver.
There is nothing else to compare
with her. The horses and cattle are
heavy consumers, and to get their
value one must part with them, but
not so with her. In her small way
she is gold mine on the face OF the
earth, a mill that grinds which others
overlook and refuse.
