cellent opportunity for the introduction of
the fur season.
Perhaps furs are one of the reasons why
so many women are partial to the winter
season. The feeling of grandeur that they
give one as they are swathed about the
shoulders is sufficient excuse for the ex-
pense of them. This season features the
combination of pelts that up to the pres.
ent had been practically unheard of, Kol-
insky, which scored so last season, will
continue one of the popular furs of the
coming season. This will be used es-
pecially for the neN coatee, which has re-
ceived the highest approval of fashion.
For coats, seal and beaver will be used
owing to their good draping quality The
humble little squirrel, of hitherto I'M
known existence, is now one of the pelts
IN greatest demand 1t adapts itself so
readily to the designs that it has a won
derful capacity for making its wearer look
eternally young. That, / think, is the real
secret of its success.
Everybody seems to enjoy week-ends
now, even more than an extended trim. In
the past, the conclusion of the summer
season meant the termination of these
delightful little parties. But now they are
one OF the essential pleasures of city folk,

5000 WOLF KILLED
AT DEPOT LAST NIGHT

With two shots from an automatic
revolver last night. Mrs. Bert Mans
field of Everett. Wash. lost what was
probably the most Valuable of the
few possessions left her by her hus-
band who died two weeks ago. The
possession of a trained wolf which
had to be shot at the depot because
OF a ferocious fight between 1t and
trained dog which were in the same
cage with partition between. The
animals both seemed TO go wild sud
denly and broke down the partition
between their cages and were yelp-
ing and biting at each other and had
the top of the cage loose.
Bystanders were thoroughly fright
ened and ChiefApf Police Roberts and
Agent O'Brien of the O.-W. r. & n.
attempted to push the animals back
with a couple of iron crowbars, but
could do nothing with them. Mrs.
Mansfield was Standing by and told
them to shoot the wolf, which was
done. She did not complain, but
could not keep the tears back.
Mrs. MansfIeld's husband was for
merly with the Dominion Shows
which were here with the Home
Guard Carnival last week. He died
at weiser two weeks ago and they
sent his body to her at Everett. She
came here to get the trained animals
he owned but they kept the monkeys
and many of the others, declaring
that he owed large bills.
The wolf had been sold to someone
in Alaska, and Mrs. Mansfield was to
get 5000 for It upon its delivery at
Seattle. She and man who was as
sisting her with the animals went
on to Everett with the dogs last
night. f,.

FOR FLOUR At Once

Wait for Pay.

For fear there may be misunder-
standing, grocers call attention to the
fact that customers who return white
flour do not need 10 wait until a
sight draft on the food adnlinistra-
tion is honored, but that they receive
cash from their respective grocers as
soon as the flour is delivered. The
grocer then draws on the food admin
igtration when he has a carload or
more.
The need for wheat and wheat flour
for our army in France and our al
lies is very pressing. and Assistant
Food Administrator Winch of Port
land. points out that we have only a
small stock in this country with which
to supply or own needs until after
harvest. and that what our soldiers
receive must come from what we
save, Accordingly. every household Is
called upon TO return every bit OF
white flour1possible. in amounts even
so small as one pint. They will be
paid the same price as they gave for
the flour whom it was purchased.
Every endeayor Is being made to
get in all flour possible at once
Steamers are now available and the
auicker all flour is in the grocers
hands for shipment the easier 1t WIN
be to transport it TO Europe. In this
emergency the food administration Is
turning to the grocers with absolute
confidence in their continued coop
