The Man Who Laughs at Fate will deliver lecture at the high school auditorium tonight beginning at 7:30 o'clock. He is N. C. Hanks of a world which he can neither see nor touch. He is blind and with out hands, but that does not keep him from laughing and talking of optimism which will be the subject of his lecture. He can say with Henley:
 Beneath the bludgeoningsl of fate
 My head is bloody, but unbowed"
 MT. Hanks was deprived of his eyesight and his hands in min ing accident in Utah several years ago. This was a handicap that to the average man, to ninety mine men of q hundred, would have been fatal But perhaps it was the beginning of MT. Hanks. It spurred him to the exercise of faculties which prob ably would otherwise not have been | employed. Thousands have enjoyed entertainment and instruction from him, and no doubt many q poor stricken soul has been given en- couragement.
 The following is the repertoire of MT. Hanks:
 Lectures-From the Cradle to the Grave-Incidents of life, Shakes peare's Seven Ages"
 The Inevitable Call. or Out of the Depths-Autobiographical and clip ! pings from Hamlet"
 ! The Whisperings of the Ages-His- torical clippings from "On the Bridge at Midnight" Each in His Own Tongue" Kipling's "Recessional."

The price of bulk flour at the Mime apolls mill of about S10,25 per barrel show that the. miller is now receiving about 75c a barrel which must include both his operating expenses and profit.
 It is interesting to note the rapidity with which the price of flour descended to the stabilized position established for wheat and the regularity with which the two prices now progress. The stabilization of wheat, consequent ly of flour at the mill, has enabled the stabilization of the wholesale business in flour and already the result has been reflected in the price of bread where the cash stores have adopted the standard loaf and are now selling it in many cities from six to seven cents for a full one-pound loaf.
 It is also of interest to note that the farmer is today receiving over 40 per cent of the price of the loaf, this being the result of stabilization of prices and the total elimination of boarding and speculation in this industry.

by and large. Therefore with the freight charges included from the wheat-raising section to Minneapolis the realization of the farmer and the necessary freight would amount to slightly over $7.00 for 41a bushels of wheat from the 1916 harvest It is true that the price of 1916 harvest wheat rose steadily during the year but the farmer had, in bulk, parted with his wheat before the large prices were received.
 The government fair price of wheat established early in September, for 1917 harvest together with the freight charges to Minneapolis amount to roughly s9.50 for Az bushels of wheat
