Plant Here Is 6lssest Thing.
In Years

Believes Other Concerns Attracted by
Cheap Power viii Come to keo-

Hugh L. Cooper, builder of the Keo-
kuk water power. was in the city Sat
urday, inspecting the plant here and
calling on friends. He IS en- route
home from professional trip to the
northwest where he is making some
investigations with regard to water
power development on the Pend Ore
lille river in, Washington. His brother
d. P. Cooper, who was with him in the
construction Of the Keokuk plant, is
in charge OF the camps in Washington
which are located at Metaline Falls
and at 2 canyon while the prelimi-
nary investigations are being made.
Mr.. Cooper was not routed via Keo-
kuk, but he changed his course and on
reaching Cedar Rapids could not re-
sist the temptation to VISIT Keokuk
and go over the plant arriving Fri
day at midnight. He leaves for Chi
cago today where he has business
appointment and from that point con-
tinues his journey to New York City.
He does not expect any pronounced
Industrial activity until legislation
takes on the form of encouragement.
Mr.. Cooper was pleased over the
location OF the National Lead Co. plant
in Keokuk and said it was the biggest
thing that has happened TO Keokuk
for many years. He said the Nation
al Lead Co. did not have to locate
here, but was able to locate wherever
it pleased. The fact that 1t did locate
here indicated that it was profitable
place to put In plant and that It
would have a big influence on other
concerns which were as financially
able to locate where it was most adj
vantageous. Mr.. Cooper said that
power was cheaper at Keokuk than
any Diaee In the United States and
that big concerns would sooner or
later take advantage Of this situation
He believed in Keokuk and believed

expect to take their punishment,
which would be to the full extent
possible
The prisoners told the sheriff they
realized what he had told them, AMI

they were going to show him they

SHOULD WRITE
MILLION WORDS
Before Attempting a Short
Story, Says George Fitch,
Noted Humorist.

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON,
July 24.-George Fitch, the humorist.
author of vest pocket essays, told the
students that a million words al
ready written and gone over carefully
is not too much practice preliminary
to the submission OF a short story for
sale. Some of the students gasped q
little. Al " ri 9ElelE
THAT'S only a: short university
course" said Mr.. Fitch, noting the
establishment. That's thousand
words day for three years. And a
thousand words day Is only fair
practice. The writer should practice
just as faithfully as the musician, the
painter, the athlete and all who work
to excel, must practice.
Just one or two pieces of advice:
Study the marketing as well as the
writing of story, and be an omnivor-
Gus taker of notes" he said.
THE usual practical among begin
|ners in short story writing is to write
a story and then pick out the maya
zine in which they would like it to APP
pear, instead OF choosing the maya
zine that takes that type of product.
The result is that Century, Scribner's
and Atlantic and others get a vast
amount of material that the editor
dislikes, desptses and will not have
under any conditions.
.Now, as to the taking of notes:
When was a cub reporter, Robert
~. Burdette, whose heart was over
flowing with Kindness toward all, told
me to fill notebooks with every idea
or half idea that occurred to me. He
said he had done it and thus had

1t was announced that during the
warm season special attention will be
paid by inspectors from the bureau
to restaurants, because many men
who have sent their families to the
country are dependent on them for
meals. The investigations of the in

certaining the sanitary conditions of
such eating places and the quality OF
food dispensed.
There is to be similarly rigid in

to take chance for one and two cents

will have to cleanse their glasses with
not water or use paper cups.

BEES FOR A
LONG Term
Woman Does Not Want to Be
Separated from a CO.
Defendant.

oKLAHoMA CITY. July "a. For
the first time In the history OF an Ok
lahoma county court a defendant In
a criminal action has demanded that
a greater sentence than that recon-
mended by the county attorney be-
imposed.
Refusing absolutely to taink OF
freedom or sentence which would
separate her from her lover. Jennie
]. Cowan, co-defendant with e. o.
Reynolds, demanded that Judge Old
field impose one year sentence upon
her instead of the nine months term
which had been recommended by the
county attorneys office. This request
was granted by the court and porn
the defendants we're sentenced to one
year in the penitentiary at McAlster.
Clemency was extended the defend
ants upon a showing that the hus-
band OF the. woman had mtsrrea.eu
her and that he had introduced her
to Reynolds: land had insisted upon
her being cordial to him. Mrs. Cowan
is on the the rolls Of the Choctaw
tribe and~had at one time considerable
property around Lehigh. where she
and her husband lived. Reynolds was
