how many hundreds of thousands OF
pieces of mail he had hauled for his

this so well that he would turn In to
those boxes whose owners took the

day delivery DAYS for that edition, and
he would not stop at those boxes on
any other days. II mail was to be de-
Hvered at those boxes on days other

WOOL NEWS AND EXPERTS.
Willard Sen Z Co. Explain Govern.
ment Sales and Effect on Market


In line with our policy In hand
\ ling wool we win try our best TO keep
| the growers posted AZ to values dur
ing the clipping season. which Is now
on.
The government safes the past week
have moved along at prices not very
satisfactory to them, only on the fine
| staple woods, while the common, low
| and u bloods are poor sellers. The
principal cali from the mills are for
the fine woods running q blood and
u staple wools-which means woods
that are three to four inches long,
while the short. fine, stubby lots are
draggy, also those on the low side.
The market may be higher and 1t
may be lower and one mans guess Is
| as good as another as to that. With
| the common. low and Y blood selling
at 40 to 45 cents and the fine staple
! lots at SO to IS are surely satisfactory
prices to all flock masters and they
| are getting good figures.
We will not try to guess the mar
ket for the next two or three weeks,
| but If prices advance we advance with
them-but If they decline we will be
compelled to go down with them. As
| stated above the government sales the
past week did not go well, as many
manufacturers are stocked up and are
not as anxious TO buy as in former
sales.
| Last year we handled the wool clip
| Of central Iowa for the government,
| and our services proved satisfactory
| to producer as well as to the United
States authorities because two gener-
atoms of our family have been in the
| wool business We have an exper-
fence which will save money for any
producer and it is immaterial to us
whether we handle wool for a farmer
| on commission or whether we buy his
clip outright and guarantee the re-
turns to him on the spot. II. Willard

AMUSE M ENTS.
At the Strand.

"The Third Degree" featuring Alice
Joyce, is an unusual production, and
one that will appeal to any lover Of good
screen plays. 1t is at the Strand. The
picture was taken from the we'll
known drama Of the same name and
the essentials cling closely to the orig
inal plot.
The play is Of Howard Jeffries, Jr.,
the son of a man of wealth, who is mar
Tied to a young second wife. the boy
while away at school, becomes ac-
quainted with an older mana neer-
well--still at college because his
affairs with wine, women and poker
have prevented him from finishing his
course in schedule time. Thru this old
er man, Jeffries the boy, meets trag-
edy and salvation.
He allows himself to be hypnotized
on bet, and he becomes acquainted
with a pretty waitress whom he mar
ries. The boys family did not agree
to the marriage so the newly married
couple leave. Jeffries has no practical
business knowledge and is unable to
get position. One evening, after
drinking heavily, he remembers his
old college friend whom he had loaned
5000 and goes to collect it. The friend
has no money and Jeffries is doped by
jealous woman. When he awakens
ne finds his friend lying on the floor
dead, a revolver near and all the doors
bolted. He tries to escape but Is ar
rested for murder. Given the third de-
gree he confesses to the crime. His
wife comes to the aid OF her husband
and sacrifices herself to save her hus-
band. The film, like the play. is in
tensely dramatic. No important es-
sential OF the stage version is omitted
and altogether it is an unusual film
and one worth seeing.
