AT THE OPERA HOUSE FRIDAY
EVENING

Should a woman's life and con-
duct be judged by distinctly differ
ent code of ethics from a man ~
Should not woman have her chance
for happiness the same as a man
without being judged and condemned
by some act of indiscretion in her
past that in a man would simply be
winked at? Upon this motif is
woven the story of 1.-THE Other Mans
Wife" the play by Victor E. Lambert,
which comes to the Grand Opera
House on Friday, Sept IA. This is
that world old mute question that
has been back of more movements
for woman's advancement than almost
any other. One thing sure the sub
ject has been handled in very clever
and intensely interesting manner by
Mr.. Lambert. Gaskell and MacVitty,
the producers, have given the play an
exceptional cast and production.

THIS IS HIS LAST
WEEK IN WAUSAU
DAILY VIII Be Here Only This Week Ladies'
Milliner Contest Thursday Night
Many Testimonials Receved-Ofice at the Bells Hotel
Crowded-Abers Drug Store Reports Large Sale of the
Toneal Remedies Family Medicine Chest Given Away
Tonight

This will close the most successful
week of Days stay in the city. The
crowds that are calling each day at
the Office at the Bells Hotel. have
been surprisingly large, and are grow
ing in size every day, and he is well
satisfied with the results of his eff
forts to introduce his preparations
here. Never before in the history of
advertising have such results been OBJ
tanned in so short time His unique
way of doing business has done much
toward making his visit the phenom-
email success that it has been by incul-
eating a certain amount of curiosity
into the peoples mind and drawing
them to his headquarters, where his
doctor could explain the merits of his
remedies in person. This inspiration
of curiosity has become unnecessary,
as his remedies have already earned
for themselves reputation that
makes it possible for them to stand
entirely on their merits and the sale
of his preparations is now due solely
to what they have accomplished in
this city.
The announcement made that Daily
was going to be here just one week
longer, seems to have brought the
people out in swarms. Probably over
hundred people come every day to
tell DAILY what his remedies have done
for them, and to thank the young
man in person, and some of the stories

vice of friends she purchased bottle

about ten days and now feels like a

she has felt in years. Miss Daniels
was so grateful that she called and
told Daily to use her name as a testi-
monial. DAILY announced he would
give away his family medicine chest
with each dollar purchase tonight for
the last time. The medicine chest is
valued at $3.50.

BOOKS RECEIVED

The Marathon County Council of
Defense has received books which it
viii distribute to the boys going to
war. The first shipment was received
in time to present one to each ct the
boys who left on Thursday, which vas
presented by S. B. Tobey. The pur-
pose of the little handbook is to help
the soldiers in ordinary conversation
with the French and Belgian allies
during warfare, and for this reason
the book is quite different from the
usual phrase books compiled for the
holiday tourist. An effort has been
made to render pronunciation of words
as easy as possible. The book is cloth
lined and substantially bound and can
be carried in the vest pocket.

THE RED CROSS

One year ago, on a peace basis, with
only about 200 chapters and little
more than 100000 members, with an
nual funds of only a few hundred
thousand dollars, the Red Cross en-
ployed seventy-five paid officers and
employees, of whom Twenty-Five re-
ceived salaries of from $4,000 to 81, 500.
At the present time, with the Red
Cross on a war footing with $500
chapters to administer, 1921, 900 men,
bers and a war fund of $100,000,000
pledged, Red Cross national headquar-
tiers employ 624 paid officers and en-
ployees, of whom forty-six are paid
salaries of $4,000 year or more.
In other words, since war was de-
clared, $50 paid officers and employees
have been added to Red Cross head
quarters staff, and of that number
seventeen receive salaries of from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year.
The highest salary added since war
was declared is $4,000. The highest
paid official in the national organize
ton received $500 and he was on
the staff on a peace basis.
OF those receiving less than $4,000 a
year, forty-nine now receive salaries
of more than 800 a month. There are
thirty-eight clerks paid $500, while
clerks and messengers receiving less
than 800 number 491.
In addition to paid officers and en-
ployes in national headquarters, the
number of full time volunteers now
contributing their services to the Red
Cross is seventy-seven. Practically all
the important administrative positions
created since war was declared are
filled by volunteers.
During the last month the number
of Red Cross members has increased
from 2,547,412 to 1921, oil.

Wheat Prices Unsteady
But VIII Settle Soon

For the farmer who would like to
figure out what wheat will be worth
should Chicago be accepted as the only
primary market, D. A. White gives the
following information: The freight rate
from Salem to Chicago in bulk is $40
a ton, or half cent a pound. AS a
bushel of wheat weighs 60 pounds, that
would figure 80 cents a bushel to get
it to Chicago. But wheat from the val
ley is generally shipped in sacks and
the average cost of sack per bushel is
six cents. Then while Blue steam is
quoted at 1920 in Chicago, yet the val
ley wheat is generally of grade to
sell about ten cents less bushel than
the Blue stem. Then of course the dealer
is entitled to some margin for handling
The Blue stem quotation in Portland to-
day is So. With these figures, while the
market is attempting to steady, the far
mer may figure out what he is entitled
to for his valley wheat.

Commercial Club
Wants Work On Locks
Completed This Year

An appropriation of $4,000 was
voted by Congress for the improvement
of the locks at Oregon City, whereby
1t would be made possible for boats of
larger size and drawing deeper water
to pass through the locks as at all times
of the year. But there seems to be
danger of the work being DELAYED due
1t is said to the efforts of individuals
and private corporations. The work
of deepening the locks was started but
just now the government has a crew
ready, but no work is being done. At
a meeting of the directors of the Com
mercial club held today noon. resolu-
tions were passed to send to the U. S.
engineers at Washington and also to
the Oregon congressman urging that
the work be continued. With a lock
that would permit larger boats on the
river at all times of he year, it is
thought that Salem would be in bet
ter position to secure a lower freight
rate,
