HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
(By Laura M. Folts)

Friday afternoon the faculty PLAYED
the girls baseball team. 1t was worth
the whole afternoon to see Mr.. Bailey
take base in two steps, to see Miss
Hunkins actually hit ball and Mrs.
Wiseman strike at them. Mr.. Jones
has the art of pitching down pat, so the
faculty won with score of 27-3.
Friday night "Back to the Farm
was staged by Mr.. Wright. The play
was success from start to finish.
Ursel Narver. the handsome Young
hero. has surely made a name for him
self, and Bernice Fisher carried her
part well. Everyone expected to laugh
when Paul Reed came on the stage and
their expectations were fulfilled every
time. The only regret heard was that
Gertrude Horn, as Hulda, the maid,
dldnt come on the stage more often
than she did. Tuesday evening the city
teachers had picnic at fuckers
Bridge. Everyone reported a good
time.
Saturday afternoon on Gibson field
White Salmon Hi will play II. r. II. S.
in base ball
Track meet Of all the schools in the
county will be held on Gibson field Sat
urday afternoon. Everyone is urged To

APPLE BOXES TO
COST THIRTY CENTS

a definite price. according to ship
pers, has been set on contracted apple
boxes for the year. The shook will
cost the growers from 28 to 80 cents.
In case Of large yield of apples this
fall, however, growers who have un-
derestimated their box requirements,
1t is expected, may have to nay con
slderably higher price for containers.
Lumbermen, it is. stated, are reti-
cent this year on contracting for any
great amount of apple boxes. They
are finding an outlet for all their pro
duct at high prices. and shipping con-
Germs are Fastening to contract for as
heavy supplies as manufacturers will
accept.
In addition to eliminating the print
ing of apple wrappers, shippers discon-
tinued the use of cardboard liners in
apple boxes. This pruning of expenses,
It is said, will save growers $l5, 900.
Because of the high price Of paper,
large percentage of low grade fruit
will probably be marketed this season
unwrapped in tumble packs.

EXCHANGE
 SUFFERS IN FACE
 BIG GOLD IMPORTS
Unsettled Conditions Due to Predominant Trade Posi-
 tiOn of U. s.

New York, Sept. 11.-In the face of the largest gold import movement of the year, the local market for exchange was more severely unset tied today. Remittances to Lon don declined to lowest quotations in six months, with concurrent weak ness of rates to leading continental European points.
 Heavy offerings of bills, which probably represented sales of grains and cotton, with mixture of specu- lativeofferings, forced sterling down to 3.49 1-4,or ? 1-2 cents under yes terday's best quotation and some ten
 Today's minimum price is the low est for British exchange since the early part of last March, but con- siderably above that of February 4, when international remittances were ina state of demoralization.
 The British rate then fell to SIS, as against normal or pre-war rate of approximately $4.86, implying a depreciation of over 33 per cent while French, Belgian and Itlaian bills were at discounts extending from 6s to v per cent with virtual ly no bid for mraks or German ex- change.
 Bankers and international brdk- CTS professed to be without informa- tion as to the cause of the recent reaction, except to emphasize this country's predominant tradeposition. The serious industrial unsettlement now reflected by conditions in Eng land and Italy also was regarded as a more than sentimental factor.

Lodge Declares
 Wilson AutOcrat

Nahant, Mass, Sept. 11.-SenatoR. Henry Cabot Lodge today attacked what he said was the effort of Prss-s ident Wilson to make one man gov- ernment. The presidents conception of government, he said, is that of theI third Napoleon. He charged that the president has established "such a reign or terror over many reprs- sentatives and senators of his own party that the legislative powers of the constitution granted to congress alone were impaired and distorted.s z
 Senator Lodge addressing m ont ing of the Lynn republican club said that President Wilson's autocrstie administration" affected every do-' pertinent of the government.
 cone of the leading demands Of the republican platform and one of the issues which Senator Harding has most strongly emphasized is that. we would bring the government back to the system and the forms of the constitution which we have follow ed throughout our history" said Senator Lodge.
 "Mr. Wilson throughout his admins istration, has undertaken to ig- nore the great principle laid down in the constitution of Massachusetts that this is to be government ek laws and not of men. He has tried to make it . government by ono man." <

BOTH BIG PARTIES CLAIMING VICTORY IN MAINE CONTEST McAd00 Assails Lodge Vers- ions of League of
 Nations G. o. P. PREDICTS
 BIG MAJORITY Democrats Declare They Will Carry Important Political State
 By Only Small
 Margin

Portland, Maine, Sept. 11.-Victory in the Maine election on Monday was claimed by both the republican and democratic leaders tonight. At final rallies and mass meetings of the cam- paign, republicans predicted a major ity of from 3O,0OO to 35,OO0 and the democrats predicted success "by a small majority"
 Frank, J. Ham, chairman of the republican state committee claimed that Colonel Frederick H. Parkhurst candidate for governor, would sweep in with him -four republican con- gressmen, republican legislature and every county but one."
 Louis J. Brann, chairman of the democratic state committee said:
 "On the whole, the outlook is good. Bertrand G. Mcintyre, candi- date for governor, has made good impression upon the people and a majority of the people of Maine are undoubtedly in favor o1 the peace treaty."
 McAuOO on GrOunuS.
 Denial that "the league of nations is union to wage war" as charged by Senator Lodge, was made here to- night by William G. McAdoo, in an address at the final democratic mass meeting in the state campaign. He added that if the United State be- comes member "the league will be doubly powerful to prevent war"
 Every obligation of good faith to our allies," MT. McAdoo said land every principle of idea for the settle ment of international disputes by peaceful methods, of which this na- tion has been the consistent cham pion for half a century, appeals to the American people to join their power with the great nations of the earth to secure for the first time in human history this great boon of an organization to make the recur- renee of war so remote as to be inn possible.
 "The paramount need of the world today in peace and insurance against war. The democratic party stands for peace and insurance against war The republican party opposes it"
 Answers Lodge.
 "At Augusta few nights ago Sen- ator Lodge charged that the league of nations is a union to wage war;
 Ut would be just as national to claim that an agreement actually to make war is in fact an agreement not to make war. The covenant binds the 37 nations to submit international disputes of arbitration, or inquiry, and not in any case to resort to war until three months after the award of the arbitrators or the report of the council. Then a reasonable time is allowed for an inquiry by the coun- cil, so that if arbitration fails or an inquiry by the council proves fu- tile, then war cannot result until three months after. It would seem be- yond belief that after nine months of delay, during which time the dis pute is considered by all the parties in interest and through the agencies established by the league of nations, the passion for war will not have cooled off and a peaceful settlement will not have been made"
