He must pay a corporation tax. He

STRIKE BEGINS

On Wednesday night, refusing the
request that final action be deferred
pending mediation by federal agents
telephone operators and electrical
workers voted to strike and all mem
bers were instructed to be out by
midnight. Reports from Portland
and Tacoma indicate that strikes will
also take place there tonight
Late tonight the phone service
was badly demoralized, many of the
girls quitting in relays as their shift
expired. Local union officials
claimed that tomorrow 5000 line
operators and electricians in the
state of Washington will be on
strike. 1t is reported that a few
strike breakers were at work and
that they will eat and sleep in the
exchanges.
A dispatch from Portland said, the
telephone operators and electricians
would strike at midnight. This
statement was made by union Off

The girls at Aberdeen went out
at midnight.

WHY IS A GUINEA HEN?

Whoever designed the guinea hen
and composed the music for her vo-
cal organs must have used a rasp
for tuning fork. Guinea hens and
their husbands are alike in appear
ance; when you've seen one you've
seen the other. Their plumage is
of one and the same piece of goods
like the Quakers'. If ever you have
indulged in filing the teeth of a
cross-cut saw you've heard the
synoym of her melody. Nature did
herself a dreadful injustice when
she produced this variety of fowl,
and the farmer who gives her board
ana lodging is no good Christian.
1 say this because any man who
sefis you guinea hen as youthful
and tender has designed to skin
you. 1 have a dim recollection of
tasting one many years ago and /
will say this-the gravy was quite
tender.
A group of guineas running to
keep out of harm's way resembles
a streak of tender calico of somber
hue with polkadots. The guinea
hen lays a very small egg with
spots on it similar to those we see
at cheap grocery stores in fly time. Z
The eggs have no rating in the
commercial world. They are used

bowl should then be filled with water
