Commencing July 1 the subscrip-
tion price of the Colville Examiner
will again be $1.50 year, the same
as it was for the first five years of
it's existence. Subscriptions not paid

did. Hence there can be no objec-
tion to again paying $1.50 for the Of
ficial county newspaper-provided of
course that the newspaper is of the
$1.50 class, and not of the 80 cent or
dollar variety. Readers can COM
pare the Examiner with any other
paper published in the county, and
judge this matter for themselves.
The congressional bill which i'm
poses heavy postage tax on publica-
tions sent to other zones, if it is per-
mitted to take effect July /, will
further increase the price of papers
sent out of this state.
Until July l the Examiner will re-
ceive subscriptions at the old rate Of

COlyille Tags Loyal Ones at Rally on
Courthouse Lawn-All School
Districts Hold Meetings

Loyal citizens of every school dis
trict gathered together last night to
pledge themselves to save and buy
War Savings Stamps to help win the
war. Quotas were large, but not too
large if every one did his best. The
results of the campaign in Stevens
county will not all be known for a
week or more as all the school dis
tricts will have to be checked up.
Calls for eighty-three speakers for
last night came in to the county chair
men from various communities. The
problem of making about forty speak
ers cover these calls confronted the
committee. Most of the speakers
We're asked to talk in two places on
the same night.
Hugh Waddell and o. w. Noble,
chairman and assistant chairman, res
pectively, of the county organization,
expressed satisfaction with the spirit
shown during the campaign. A splen-
did and thorough county organization
was built up by these men who gave
all of their time for the month of
June to the War Savings work.
The basis of the campaign has been
the school districts, each one of which
was given a quota to raise. In each
community the committee was assist
ed by the organization of Minute Wo-
men who made house to house can
vases to secure the signing of pledge
cards.
A big meeting was held in Colville
on the courthouse lawn last night.
The program planned included music
by the Colville band, solos by Mrs. J.
c. Harrigan and an address by Rev.
Leonard Carver. Tables were placed
on the lawn where pledge cards could
be signed with the help of group of
business girls who took charge of the
tables Those who had signed up to
buy their share of War Savings
Stamps were given tags to wear say
ing 81 have done my best" Those
who were not thus tagged were urged
to sign up by men and women COM
mttees on the grounds. This meet
ing helped great deal in COlville's
effort to reach her quota of $4,000.

Colville's campaign, and was assisted

Opera for Every
American Civ
By Richard Ha4eman

Dy RiCll0I0 AaXcm3n
There is plenty of musical talent in
America, but this fact is not suff-
GENTLY realized. Recent experiences
have shown me that much can be done
with intelligent amateurs in q very
short space of time.
For instance, every town and city in
America should have its own opera
house, where American singers, homo
talent, could be heard. An annual sum
should be set aside for expenditures.
and each opera house should be in the
hands of capable and reliable d.
rector: Experienced stage managers
and chorus masters would also be q
with no dramatic training would make
great progress in few weeks.
To my mind it is foolish to insist
upon the efficacy of any given method.
The first essential for a career is a
fine voice. If you are without that, all
the method in the world will not help
you. The second essential is, of course.
intelligence. It is easier to study for
opera than for the concert stage. In
opera the orchestra is great help.
Then, too, a certain emotional excite
ment is produced by costumes and
scenery and by the very nature Of the
character portrayed. But in opera the
singer is called upon to present only
tragedy or comedy, as it happens. must
be depicted on one song.
This is the age of women, and they
should see to it that children receive
a more thorough training in music.
No education is complete without some
knowledge Of music, and is there q
more beautiful pastime?

17 Years a
 Leader

The Gramm-B Bernstein Truck represents the most advanced ideas of practical commer- cial car design and construction. It is built by men who started seventeen years ago as pioneers in this industry and have retained their leadership ever since. Our. engineers have made thorough analysis of every com mercial transportation problem, and the Gramm- Bernstein reputation for satisfaction is due as much to the care used in recommend ing only trucks absolutely fitted for the work they are to perform, as in the excellence of workmanship and materials that go into their construction.
 While we maintain stock of repair parts for use in emergencies, Gramm- Bernstein have always believed that SERVICE should be "bult-in" their trucks-not located down. town at service station.
