MONTESANO, April 15.-Threats
which County Treasurer Jerry Nc
Gillicuddy declares have been made
by several Hoquiam citizens that they
would serve him notice to remove all
port commission funds from the
Hayes & Hayes bank, do not affect
the custod an of Chehalis county

McGillicuddy, told him while down on
the Harbor this week, that the
Hayes & Hayes bank should not car.

j. Patterson, port commissioner, is
head of the bank.
Several attorneys with whom
have consulted declare that there is
no reason in the demand" said Mr..
McGillicuddy. "If there is tech

should not be intrusted with a por-

that none of the port funds went to

DOES NOT LIKE
CRACKED CRYPT

MONTESANO, April 15.-Frank l..
Morgan says when he dies his ghost
is going to be company-loving ghost
and he doesn't want crypt in maui
soleum where there are cracks that
will allow most of his neighbors to
escape. This, however, was just a
joshing prelude to the suit of the
Mausoleum Sales company suit against
Mr.. Morgan and L. H. Brewer and their
wives to compel them to pay for crypts
in the Hoquiam mausoleum for which
they signed contracts.
The refusal to pay is based on sew
eral causes-that the building Is much
smaller and not as good or as hand
some structure as was promised and
that it is not we'll constructed, and
other reasons.
A large number of witnesses are on
hand and the case is being heard be-
fore Judge Ben Sheeks. F. l.. Morgan
Is repreSent.ng himself and partner,
Mr.. Brewer, and Charles w. Smith
representing Mrs. Morgan and Mrs.
Brewer. The mausoleum Is represent
ed by Martin r. Smith.
In preliminary skirmishses much
has been made Of alleged cracks in the
concrete walls of the bu.lding. Martin
ntth's first witness, Mr.. Cuthbert,
swo3 asked what these cracks were.
He declares they are not cracks at all
but cold joints-that Is, where new
concrete was poured onto concrete al
ready hardened. He alleges they will
not show at all when the building Is
finished.

Although Mrs. #. ]. Burnett, leader
of the home economies department
OF the Omaha Womans club, states
that the high price of wheat will in
duce many women to bake their own
bread. she does not believe they will
be getting their bread any cheaper.
The bread will he much better
bread, but doubt whether It can be
baked at less cost at home" she said.
Mrs. Burnett SAYS II Is voman's queer
business sense that accounts for her re
turn to homo baking because Of the high
price OF flour. Women viii pay out the
amount of a sack OF flour and after they
have It In the house will forget that they
have paid tho amount OF the flour and
will consider that their bread costs them
nothing, because they have no baker 3
bill to pay" she explained. They ac-
tually believe they are saving money"
My department will take no action on
the present high prices because there Is
nothing we can do. Then Il does not ar
feet us as much as Il does the poor work
ing woman. who buys loaf Of bread on
her way home from work to feed her
