LEAP YEAR DANCE ON
 SATURDAY NIGHT GOING TO BE A HONEY AFFAIR

The leap year dance sponsored by the young ladies of Seward, with the aid of the married ladies, promises to be one of the pretty little social af- fairs at which all who attend wlli thoroughly enjoy. Unlike other leap year dances, a dress-up affair, the party Saturday night, will be an apron affair and the committee in charge announes that any one attend ing in a regular party gown is likely to be fined. The men folk are also taking an interest in the dance as they attend all dances in their regular bus mess suits and are considerably in the shade when the ladies doll up. If the ladies do not care to wear aprons; shirt waists will be the thing. Thc patrons and patronesses of the leap year dance will be MT. and Mrs. Erich Lucas, Mir. and Mrs. Gus Borgen and Mir. and Mrs. Elmer A. Friend.

MONTESANO, March A. John Patterson, of Centralia, defense wit ness, testified late yesterday after noon that he saw the body of Arthur McElfresh, one of the men murdered m the Armistice day massacre, car lied from the doorway of the Wobbiy Hall. This is a contradiction of tho testimony given by several witnesses for the state who declared McElfresh was slain a short distance from the hall. Patterson said he heard the door of the Wobbly hall broken in, then heard shots.
 Mrs. A. Martina said she had a view of Tower avenue. She said the head of the contingent was not in sight when the shooting started. She admitted her husband was coal min CT, striking at the time. Two daught- CTS corroborated Mrs. Martina's te.;ti- mony. Six other witnesses were called.
 Late yesterday afternoon Judge Wilson again ruled Vanderveer had failed to show an overt act by Warren Grimm or even that plot existed against the Wobbly hall. Judge Will son said the evidence falls far short so far of showing any con spiracy. Vanderveer during the argu- ments declared that persons defending property had a right to shoot at at tackers.

Cotton Damaged By
 By Bad Weather

A series of experiments to de- termine the extent to which, under various conditions, baled cotton is destroyed by weather was recently conducted by the Bureau of Mark cts, United States Department of Agriculture, at Jefferson, Ga. The results are striking, according to E. B. Whitaker, county agent for the county. In some instance, a bale of cotton placed out in the open, flat on the ground with no covering, was damaged to the ex- tent of 370 pounds at the end of eight months Another bale placed on edge with no further attention, lost 167 pounds. A bale on edge and turned over once week lost 110 pounds. A bale placed on end and not turned lost 78 pounds. A bale place on timbers off the ground and turned once a week lost 49 pounds. A warehouse bale of cotton during the same period lost only one pound. Other tests have been conducted from time to time that corroborate these results and prove that the ideal conditions under which cotton may be held by growers before marketing are af forded by properly constructed, eff ficiently operated, bonded ware houses.
