MAE WEATHERREE
Auditor of Snohomish County

One of the hopeful indications of the
progress being made along political
lines is the readiness with which the
people recognize ability and trust
worthiness in official life and their
willingness to lay aside party preju-
dices and give their support to a
public official who clearly merits it..
An example of this is found in the
election of Mae Weatherbee as county
auditor of Snohomish County irrespec-
tive of party lines Auditor Weather
bee had proven her fitness for the
position by dischargine her manifold
duties as clerk to the county auditor
for a term of years, and when the
office of county auditor was to be
filled the people chose this thoroughly
well-qualified candidate to fill it.
Throughout her incumbency Miss
Weatherbee has maintained the highest
standard of efficiency in her office
and has introduced such improve
ments as her judgment and eX-
perience have pointed out. The result
is that there are no complaints and
no cause for complaints in the con-
nection with the county auditors Of
flee and a host Of friends and ac-
are prepared to re-elect

teous incumbent

One of the greatest marvels of this
age of progress is the talking machine,
which has been so improved in the
last few years as to perfectly initiate
wonderful device it is now possible to
reproduce the most eloquent and in
spring utterances of the Hottest minds
so that one may in his own home
enjoy them almost, if not quite, as
much as by actually hearing them at
first hand. The wonderful gamut of
the human voice when raised in song
loses not one whit of its beauty when
heard through the medium of one of
these machines. In Everett the firm
of Tiedeman-W WOODBURY. Company, To-
Gated at 291S Colby avenue, makes a
speciality of Edison monographs, and
of the best makes of talking machines,
including the Victor, Victrola, Edison
disc and others. An experience ex-
tending over more than ten years has
placed this firm in the front rank and
enabled it to give expert advice to all
who are interested in any one of these
machines, as well as in piano or
other musical instrument. When We
consider the amount of pleasure to be
derived from the possession of a
photograph and the charm and hap
piness it adds to home life, we can
appreciate just why the Tiedeman-

creasing so rapidly. This firm may be
unhesitatingly recommended to all in
terested in musical instruments of any
character, especially in the talking
