Suggestion for New Holiday.

Texas has an "onion day" Com
menting on its observation, a New
Yorker said to Galveston merchant:
The Lone Star state has the better
OF the Empire state, for we have no
vegetable or flower to which we do
fearful homage as you do to the frag-
rant onion. The fact is, we are open
to suggestions as to a new holiday.
The latest proposition in that line was
a moving day. Now, don't misunder-
stand the term. Those who move will
not celebrate; they will just move and
experience all the joys pertaining to
that heart and Misunderstanding func-
ton. Those who will celebrate will be
the people who can look on."-New
York Tribune.

place, clothes with bloodstains upon
them were found and ultimately tho

ures and in the entertaining quality of
its contents it compares favorably with
the best of the independent weeklies or
even monthlies. During the last year
it's readers have been enjoying spec
ial treat in a remarkable series of prize
stories secured through an offer of
$4,000 in cash prizes. This unique
contest attracted the best living writ
ers, and many of them continue to
write for the Sunday Magazine of the
Record Herald Some of the best stor-
les of Conan Doyle, Jack London, Wal
lace Ir s in, Ellis Parker Butler, Cyrus
Townsend Brady and scores of other
writer's Of high-class fiction will be

ARE READY TO QUIT.
Canada Not So Enticing for the Farmer

Many of the American farmers who
went into Manitaba and Saskatchewan
in the boom days, are preparing to re-
turn to the United States, according te
]. B. Re;sman of st. Paul, who has
just returned from Winnipeg, says the
Duluth News Tribune:
Coming from Canada, | was told, .
said Mr.. Reisman, "that 80 per cent OF
the American farmers who went into
Manitoba and Saskatchewan, will re.
turn to their home country in another
year; some of them, in fact, are leav.
now. 1t seems that the high cost OF
living in that country has decided them
to return to America. where they car
buy necessities for less money than
they can in the Dominion. The great
importation of American products into
Canada is one reason for the advanced
prices.
''The Canadians recognize the fact
that many of the American farmers
who went there in the boom days are
leaving"
To confirm the above article on the
situation as far as the Canadian exc
dus is concerned we have All example
right here at home, and in this instance
Washburn is the first place to benefit
from these Canadian people. H. F.

material out to their place and will

Club Smoker Tonight Will
Be Whirlwind Entertainment

Tonight the Tacoma Athletic
club will hold what promises to
be the most successful smoker
since its organization. The rounds
have been heightened and there
will be faster travelling in every
bout. From the opening bout
between Joe Hill and George
Smith in four rounds until the
decision in the main event be-
tween Paul Steele and Eddie Ma
rino, there will not be a dull mo-
ment and strength and science
will be combined In a whirlwind
of entertainment.
While there has been some
complaint, the majority of the
club members are highly pleased
with the action of the trustees
in dividing the membership into
three divisions which permits OF
reserved seats. In an effort to
materially increase the member
ship the initiation fee has been
dropped for this smoker. Mem
bers will also be allowed to pay
their assessments at the club

players to the other teams would
mean that the team with the
most money would win the pen
nant.
ROthermel To Blame.
The loss of the baseball fran
chise and team to Tacoma Is d.
rectly attributable, the league di-
rectors say, to the stubborness of
Rothermel.
Not only did the league direc-
tors offer him every chance to
raise money and make good but
also offered him his $1,000 for
felt and to pay the liabilities of
the club that it might be taken
over by other Tacoma people.
Rothermel refused to accept
unless Ed. N. Watkins, the only
Tacoman to come forward, was
not to receive the club.
Not Lost Yet.
The franchise, however, Is not
entirely lost to Tacoma. It Is
for sale now to the highestt bid
uCls ldCOulduS may ReL Tile
franchise back and keep the club
here by making the first bid.
The action must be decisive be-
fore some other town gobbles up
the privilege. Whoever gets the
franchise and club will get it free
of encumberances. The league
will pay off all debts and the
back salaries of the players.
To finance the deal would take
at least $4,000 cash to operate
the club on a successful financial
basis through at least another
year and perhaps two.
The players are estimated to be
worth over $4,000. Several of
them are wanted by the major
leagues who are willing to pay a
good price. By judicious hand,
ling the team could be made to
pay for itself within a few years
and leave a good clean profit.
