BIZ Special Corresponding.

By Special Correspondent.
ROOSEVELT, Aug. 13.-The loss
at the factory of the Armour Fertil-
izer Works, due 30 last Saturdays fire
is now reported to lave been much
greater than at first estimated. The
highest figure places the damage at
$500, 900. Efforts to obtain a state
ment from the Superintendent A. ].
Wiley were unsuccessful this morning
owing to the fact that the telephone
system connecting the various parts of
the plant was burned out. 1t is said
that rebuilding will begin at once the
fire having been kept away from the
main buildings by the able manner in
which the volunteer fire department
handled the blaze.

GHOST STORIES VARY LITTLE
Invariably Only Two Elements at the
Base Of Japanese Tales OF the
Supernatural.

The elements at the base of the
ghost story of japanese thought are
simple. They are fear and anger, two
emotions not s~eparable, the n imply
ing the other and forming a single mo-
tive-a fact perhaps true throughout
the rule of the exercise of these two
passions. They deal with men
and women, and are complete novels
of everyday life. OF the past, there is
the carefully preserved traditional
treatment, as accurate as the delight
full reproduction of old-time costumes
and old-time life found in the long
line Of artists of the brush, whether in
painting or literature.
But this is a trait of the race, so
eminently given to minute detail In
featuring its environment. Its preju-
dices are instanced In the great impor-
lance and strict injunction as to OBJ
and practice of longtime Gus
tom, in the ready reference Of divers
Ills to old superstitions always upper
most in the popular mind, some wide
ly spread, others severely local. .
With all the varied detail and confu-
sion of plot, the stories are all cast in
the same rigid lines. In general terms
one read, all have been read. This
can be attributed to the essential same
ness found throughout Japanese social
fife. The ghost itself is to be men
toned.
1t is an unworshiped spirit, or. owing
to some atrocious injury in life. 1t
stays to wander the earth and to Sc
cure vengeance on the living perperra-
tor. The mind concentrated In its hate
and malice at the last moment of life
secures to the spirit a continued and
unhappy s~ojourn among the living I'M
til the vengeance be secured, the
grudge satisfied and the spirit pacifed.
There are other unhappy conditions OF
this revisiting of life's scenes; as when
the dead mother returns to nurse her
infant, or the dead mistress to console
a love. Vengeance satisfies the grudge,
time assuages grief but the ghost can
err by excess and find nc easy pacifca-
ton. The most strenuous efforts Of any
but the saintliest of men are without
success In the redemption. In the
case of Sainen, the %reprobate cleric
yet stalks the earth In spite OF the
prayers of generations Of sinners and
sinless, offered at the Suwa shrine; an
instance of malignant persistence rare
even In the ghostly annals of Nippon.

WORK PROGRESSING
NICELY OVERSEAS
CONTACTS WITH
DISABLED ESTABLISHED
BY BOARD

WASHINGTON the over
seas forces, agents for the Federal
Board for Vocational Education, have
established preliminary contacts with
LOT 900 injured or disabled men, and
working contacts with $4,000 men by
personal interview before their re-
turn to this country, furnishing in
formation about what the government
is prepared to do for training and
placing disabled soldiers, sailors and
marines.
( The work is now being coordinated
with the activity of the reconstruc-
ton hospitals of the army, and where
it is evident from preliminary sur
vey that man is permanently dis
abled case, the preliminaries are ar
ranged, and it is decided what will
be best for him to study or train for.
The voluntary assent of the individ-
ual is always an essential feature,
and no man is ever forced to take
the training, or is persuaded to take
that which he is not heartily in favor
of and which he wants to do.
By this means, much time is saved
and during the period of the disabled
man in the reconstruction hospital
he is, when possible, given such pre-
liminary work in the line he has chos-
en- so that upon his discharge, when
he comes under the jurisdiction of
the federal board for further train
ing, he has utilized his hospital period
to good advantage and has made con-
siderable progress. Thus the process

HAVE LOCAL SHOWING

Hale Hamilton, OF Get ich-Quick
Wallinaford" fame in $4,000 An Hour
| will be seen at the KenwOrthy theatre,
! Wednesday. 1t is screen adoption Of
the famous story of the same name by
George Randolph Chester, noted dra-
matist and writer. The story is of UNI
usual vigor and strength and presents
Mr.. Hamilton in the dynamic leading
role which is one eminently suited to
his virile and compelling style of COM
edy, and as Johnny Gamble, he is seen
at his best.
The story deals with the problems
of a young man who was set himself
the seemingly impossible task of max
ing a million dollars in six weeks
five thousand an hour. The reason
for this is a girl-if he does not have
the money in the appointed time he
cannot, in honor. ask her to marry
him, so, obviously, the money must be
found His methods are so convinc-
ing and full of ingenious subtlety that
he carries all his business associates
with him through series. of breathe
less adventures which will appeal to
those who admire vigOr and determ-
nation i'll man and love and loyal
ty in the girl who loves him.
With Mr.. Hamilton is Lucille Lee~

girl, Constance JOY Others of note
in the exceptionally strong cast are,

PLANT HOT BEDS NOW.

The hot BEDS, which should be con-
structed by this time, should be
planted now to tomatoes, celery, egg
plants, peppers, cabbage, cauliflower
or other plants that require early
growth in a hot bed prior to trans
planting, according to Mr.. I. H. Abel
instructor in horticulture at the Utah
Agricultural College. Mr.. Abel, who
has had wide experience in connec-
ton with the operation of hot beds,
enthusiastically urges their more gen
eral use by the average gardener.
While the market gardener is well
aware of the value of the hot bed,
the home gardener is not, according
to Mr.. Abell Many who plant gar
dens only to supply their home tables
could well maintain small hot bed
and thus secure much earlier har
vests. One caution given by Mr..
Abel to those who are not experts
in the manipulation of the, hot bed
is this-do not wait too long before
transplanting. AS soon as the plants
have formed true leaves they should
be moved.

"YOU FELLOWS. I"

We've licked the Hun. Now let's
everybody get his coat off and pitch
into the new enemy.
Who is he? Why the professional
pessimist, the arch enemy of pro-
gress. Not the pessimist who says,
at looks hard to do, but it ought to
be done and we'll do our best" Not
that fellow But the real Blue Mon
day pessimist who says, "You fellows
are going to have hard time putting
over the next loan" That's the en-
envy we're after.
''You fellows" Where does he
get that "You fellows" stuff? Whose
war was this, anyway? Whose coun-
try was indicated when we punished
the BLACKBOARD gang that sank the
Lusitania? Whose children and
whose children's children in America
will be saved the disgrace of paying
homage and tribute to cut-throat
monarch and his blood-thirsty bunch
because American heroes gave up
their lives?
Who is this government, anyway?
'You felIows-?" Whose Victory
Loan is this going to be? Whose life
and lands have been saved by the
sacrifice of young men called upon to
fight for America and humanity?
Was this war fought for any par
ticular American? Was it for any
one mans liberty or that of any one
set of men? Wasn't this war for all
of humanity? Didn't everybody be-
Iieve American was Justified in fight
ing? If any American didn't believe
we were justified in winning the war
why didn't he voice his sentiments
while we were fighting?
If anyone in America is disappoint-
ed because we won the war; if any
one is dissatisfied with the results,
let him hold up his hand in plain
sight. This was his war just as 1t
was his neighbours. There is no place
m America for the term "You fel-
lows when it comes to talking OF
the war or its benefits. 1t was vim
dication of all America. The victory
benefited the Stacker just as much
as it did the most loyal man or wo-
man in the land.
Look out for that "You fellow
