10000 TONS OF STEEL
COME HERE ANNUALLY

BY careful estimate, based on &C.
tual shipments, Commercial Agent E.
A. Lalk of the c. NJ & st. P. railroad
has ascertained approximately 10000
tons of iron and steel is sent to
Grays Harbor annually. This rather
surprising fact gives pretty good
idea of the iron and steel business
The harbor shipment represents for
tune.
OF the 10000 tons it is figured the
railroads have carried 1000 tons, the
remainder coming by ship.
A large part Of the steel and iron
goes to the logging camps in the way
of railroad equipment, hawsers, chains
etc. The larger part of this class
of freight has been increasing, which
tends to emphasize the activity in
the logging industry.

MILLER is APPOINTED
SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT
Principal Miller Of the High School
Is Unexpectedly Named to Sue
coed Arthur Wilson

At the meeting of the board of ed
ucaticn Tuesday afternoon, George B.
Miller was chosen city superintendent
Of schools, to succeed Arthur Wilson,
who has held the position for the
past six years, and has brought the
Aberdeen schools to a high point Of
efficiency The appointment came as
complete surprise to Mr.. Miller. who
has been principal of the high school
for four years, and who was an ar
dent supporter of Mr.. Wilson for re-
election. When asked to accept the
position, Mr.. Miller declined, unless
there was no chance for the reap.
pointment of Mr.. Wilson. Upon being
informed that the board was opposed
to Wilson three to two, Mr.. Miller
accepted. Before electing Miller, the
salary of superintendent was reduced
$500 year.
It has been known for some time
that two members of the board were
opposed to the reelection of Mr.. VIII
son, and two in his favor. Weather
wax and Pearsall were against Will
son and Mrs. Beimfohr and e. b
Crazy for him. J. G. Smith declined
to express a decision either way un
til the meeting, when he voted
against the re-appointment. Knowing
of the opposition of two members,
Mr.. Wilson early in the year ask.
ed the board to decide early so he
would know what to expect.

How Eugenics VIII Cure "Love-Blindness"

- TATE laws guarding the IL

help some in eugenics, but,
at most. little can be accom-
plished through state interven-
ton. The most that may be
hoped for in race betterment
through eugenics must be accom-
piished through education. This
education should begin in the
later teens, In the case of both
the young women and the young
men, and like the other lessons
in life should emphasize, first of
all and most strongly the posi-
tive side, though not emitting
the negative side.
That young woman who has

THE desire for friendship is
strong in every human
heart. We crave the COM
panlonship of those who can I'M
derstand. The nostalgia Of life
presses, we sigh for home" and
long for the presence of one who
sympathizes with our aspirations,
comprehends our hopes, and is
able to partake of our joys.
A thought is not our own until
we impart it to another. and the
confessional seems a crying need
OF every human soul.
The desire for sympathy
dwells in every human heart.
We reach the divine through
some one, and by dividing our joy
with this one we double 1t and
come in touch with the universal.
The sky is never so blue, the
birds never sing so blithely, our
acquaintance are never so gra-
cious as when we are filled with
love for somone.
Being in harmony with one, we
are in harmony with all. The
lover idealizes and clothes the
beloved with virtues that only ex-
list in his imagination.
The beloved is consciously or
unconsciously aware of this, and
endeavors to fulfill the high ideal;
and in the contemplation of the
transcendant qualities that his
mind has created, the lover Is
raised to heights otherwise i'm
possible.
Should the beloved pass from
the earth while this condition of
eXaltation exists, the conception
is indelibly impressed upon the
mind, just as the last earthly
view is said to be photographed
upon the retina of the dead.
The highest earthly relation
ship Is in its very essence fleet
ing, for men are fallible and liv-
ing in a world where material
wants jcstle, and time and change
play ceaseless parts, gradual OBJ
liberation comes and disillusion
enters.
But the memory of sweet
companionship once fully pos
sessed, and snapped by Fate at
its supremest moment, can never
die.
All other troubles are swal-
