ONE OF THREE SONS
IN SERVICE KILLED
ELIJAH b. HAYS, PRIVATE IN
DIST DIVISION, DIED IN
ACTION OCTOBER 1.

Mr.. and Mrs. Bryant w. Hays of this
city received an official telegram
from Adjutant General Harris of the
them that their son Elijah B., pri-
war department Monday, notifying
vate in the 91st division trained at
Camp Lewis. had been killed in ac-
ton in France October /.
The young man, who was q years
old, went over to Camp Lewis from
this city with the May 2 quota. Last
fall two brothers came to Camp. Lew
is from California, where the fam
lily formerly lived. The family then
moved to Olympia, about Christmas,
making the trip by auto, and have
since bought a home at Fourth and
Wilson streets, on the Eastside. The
parents came here to be near their
sons until they went overseas last
June.
Young Hays was private in Com
pany M, 364th U. S. infantry, while
his brothers belonged to Company
A of the same regiment, one of them.
Ray w., being a sergeant, and the
other, John j., private. Being in
the same regiment, the boys were to-
gether much of the time lover
there"
Mr.. and Mrs. Bryant have no par
ticulars regarding their sons death,
other than the official notice. The
last letter they had from him was
dated September 20 and some of the
statements in it led them to think
the boys were then up near the bat
tiefront.
The 91st division, which was the
first one to be organized at Camp
Lewis, went overseas last July.
Western troops, presumably includ-
ing the 91st. have been reported in
action in Belgium during the past
two weeks, but the unit of the divi-
sion to which young Hays belonged
apparently went into action earlier.

it has sold not one share of capital
stock
In any commercial enterprise there
Is lower limit to the volume Of bust
ness below which the undertaking
ceases to be successful one The
first consideration of a prospective
cooperative association is to assure
itself that it's volume of business will
be we'll above this lower limit. With
this precaution. and with a reason
ably efficient management, the finan-
cial end will cause little difficulty,
nor need the association fear the eff
fects OF legitimate competition.
Organization Plans of the Office of
Farm Markets.
In considering the advisability of
organizing specific association, the
first task is that of ascertaining the
minimum volume of business required
to make the association a thorough
going concern. After arriving at a
definite estimate Of the amount of
business required, the next step is to
obtain this minimum volume of bust
ness before actually forming the or
ganization. If the required amount
OF business is secured among those in
the communities interested, within a
reasonable length Of time. the organ
ization is completed. II the estimat-
ed volume is not pledged the under
taking Is dropped.
Each farmer who pledges himself
to become q member agrees to sign Q
contract appointing the association
his exclusive agent for the specific
products OF which the association ex-
poets to handle. Furthermore, he
agrees to give a negotiable non-inter-
est hearing note to the association.
The amount of this note is based
upon the amount of business which
he expects his organization to handle
for him-so much per acre or so
much per ton.
This note serves two purposes:
Cd 1t furnishes security for obtain
ing the necessary capital for financ-
ing the company. CD 1t serves as
security for damages to the associa-
ton in case the member does not live
up to the terms of his contract.
AS a rule co-operators consider
loyalty" Of members as the keynote
to successful cooperation. Patronage
is another term for loyalty. A MEM
Der who patronizes his association is
loyal to that association. Conse-
quently, it is the policy Of the Office
of Farm Markets to insure that 10y
atty by means of patronage contracts
backed by notes as evidence OF a
members good faith to abide by the
terms of his contract.
II a member is not willing to back
his allegiance to his association in
this manner, his support Is not to be
depended upon in times Of stress. and
every competitive business. private as
we'll as cooperative, has its times OF
stress.
When the required amount OF bust
ness has been secured on the above
basis, the association is formally or
ganized.
The Office OF Farm Markets will
furnish upon request suggested by
laws, crop contracts, and other forms
for the information Of those consid-
ering the ACCESSIBILITY Of organizing
a cooperative marketing association.
Further, the Office will personally
assist in presenting methods of organ
ization and finance to the people OF
those communities interested. Re-
quests for this service should be taken
up with the local county agricultural
agent, who will make the necessary
ARRANGEMENTS with this office.

BY w. w. Jermane, in Seattle Times.
OF more immediate interest are the
things that America has gained
through the war, now nearing it's
close. Our gains are numerous and
varied. and perhaps the following
statement will sum up the most i'm
portant of them:
America has gained such a position
that no nation or combination of ma
tons will ever again defy its military
power.
But of more Importance than that,
our high ideals have had an altogeth-
er unexpected healing influence upon
world thought. and we take a place in
history as nation that went to war
for those ideals, asking nothing, ex-
pecting nothing for itself but permits
sion to help draw little tighter the
bonds of human brotherhood
The leadership of Anglo-S Saxon peo-
plies is now assured for the indefinite
future.
Fear of Japan Disappears.

fear that japan might challenge us

well for her future success and that
OF one Of the most thoroughly pleas
ing and delightful war plays yet pro-
duced.
For Forever After" is a war play.
But It is refreshing-it is not the
blood-and-thunder type; il is not the
luridly meIodramatic type; it is not
the type filled to overiowing with
spies and intrigues-rather, 1t is a
story OF the waxing of kid" love into
a strong, enduring love that drags
the central characters through the
emotions and trials that only lovers
can know.
The curtain rises on a battlefield
scene-an American captain, young
Ted Wayne, is wounded. Delirious,
his imagination conjures before nim
sceEes of his life before the war
and of the only girl. AS he mutters,
half intelligibIy, Of those days. the
curtain descends. to rise almost i'm
mediately on the episodes Of his
ante belIum life OF which he had been
speaking.
First we see Ted and Janny (AIice
Brady in a country town. They have
Just finished high school, and are both
lively poor, Jenny Is rich, and her
parents frown upon Ted. II is in
this act that Conrad Nagel, who plays
Ted. and Miss Brady present such a
delightful, true-to-life picture OF
adolescent love, and the halting, stam-
mering declaration of a youths first
love, that few in the audience were
not carried back TO the days when
they were young, too, and perhaps
lived through the very same expert
ence.
In the second act, Tel and Jenny
meet at New London on the eve of
the Yale-Harvard boat race. Their love
endures, but trouble clouds are al
ready gathering when II develops that
Ted's father lies dying in poverty.
In the third act, Ted. through love
OF Jenny and through realization that
his poverty makes. 1t impossible for
her to become his wife, sacrifices him.
self, telling her that he does not love
her, and bidding her good-by. But
It all comes out right, for the final
scene is in q base hospital over there.
Jenny Is a nurse-and Miss Brady Is
called upon for emotional acting OF
the highest type when Ted, wounded
nigh to death, is given into her care.

II. f. KEITH'S.

Miss Helen Ware revivcs memories
of her Broadway succ ass within the
| Law" by her work in a pIaylet that
heads the bill at r. +. Keith's this
week. The sketch is called "The
Eternal Barrier" and is said to be
the only playlet in dramatic IIteTa-
tUre in which but one character ap-
pears. As the wife Of a youth who
had been made an outcast by a
wealthy family through his misalli-
ance, Miss Ware returns to the home
to present his mother with the croix
de guerre bestowed after the boys
death. All the action Of the play is
supposed to take place in the mind
OF the woman. Opening doors and
lighting arrangements are used to
indicate the other characters. Miss
Ware is given ample opportunity to
display her abilities as one of the
best emotional actresses on the stage
today.

stockings and shoes in her act.
Lillian Fitzgerald is another singer
with a personality who delighted the
first-nighters. She is assisted by
Clarence SIENNA at the piano.
