soUARlNc THE DEAL.

Most people are at heart advocates
OF the square deal 1t is natural trait
OF the American people, and the res
idents OF this community are not back
ward in this respect
Shall we incorporate the spirit OF
the square deal into our Christmas
spirit this year2
Shall We 20 even further and make it
q square deal for ourselves. and for the
community that shelters and feeds us
Our people for number OF years
have enjoyed a large measure of ma
terial prosperity This fact is re-
feeted in the community life, in the
clothes we wear. in the food we eat,
and in every act OF our daily ex-
istence
It will be reflected in the purchases
We make for the holiday season, which
will be upon a liberal scale, through
possibly not extravagant
It is not within the province of the
editor to tell our people where to spend
their money 1t is theirs. to spend
where and as they think best.
But a spirit Of fairness impels US TO
say o word in behalf OF our local mer-
ehants-those dealers who have stood
Loyalty by the community in adversely
as well as in prosperity.
They have purchased heavily in the
wholesale markets in order to be able
to supply the holiday wants OF our peo-
PIE. We are assured that they have
priced their holiday offerings down as
low as il is possible for them to be
sold. They have done their utmost in
order to meet the requirements of the
public
We feel that our people are emit
emily fair minded-that they will ex-
tend the square deal to the hCne
merchant at Christmas time, as they
do at other seasons of the year-that
they will first examine the stocks OF
the local merchants before making
their Christmas purchases-and. all
things being equal, that they will give
the local man the benefit of their trade
wherever possible without prejudice to
themselves.
Christmas il a time OF good cheer.
and the square deal increases it a
hundred fold.

FIND SHE'LL IN TREE.

Vancouver, B. C., April 3o-A great log, that appeared sound and clean, cost a mainland sawmiIl $250 this week. When the big circular saw bit into the timber it flew to pieces, and investigation showed a 25 pound shell fmbedded in the center. The tree had been brought from a point Up the coast and had probably been used years ago as a target for guns of British naval ships cruising on the Gulf of Georgia. The shell is of the type used by the navy about 25 years ago.

WHERE WOMEN HAVE
THE SMALLEST FEET

Another entry in the race for pop
u1ar discussion-this time the shoe
dealers have thrust into the public
forum the subject Of the size of
women's feet throughout the coun-
try.
Inquiry among shoe dealers of rep
resentative cities shows that the East
is out of running for, first place.
Honors for the smallest average
foot size are divided evenly between
Chicago, Atlanta and San Francisco,
n which three cities the average size
is 4 1-2, the smallest n the coun-
try. II 45Sassa "a
Largest in st. Paul.
New York follows with a LIB. Los
Angeles and Washington are a half
size further away from the goal; and
Cleveland, Pittsburg, Philadelphia,
Milwaukee and Portland, Ore, come
in next with an average of 5 1-2.
The consolation falls to St. Paul,
where the fact cannot be hidden that
the average size is a full 6.
What may be the result of this
foot census is moot. Chicago, whose
citizens were once popularity accred-
tied with large feet, may argue that
figures of the average foot size of
Chicago women have been grossly ex-
aggerated in the past.
Others may turn flippant with al
lusions to the fact that foot size mat
tiers not if the woman in question
is the fright one; or what counts
is the manner in which a woman
stamps her foot when angry.
Bad Effect on Future.
But a sure effect promises to be
that the shoe dealers announcement
of the average size of women'S shoes
worn in various cities spells misery
for many women and evcess profits
of chiropodiSts. For now women
may try to squeeze their long-suffer-
ing feet into shoes below the average
size in their respective cities.

HORSE OPPOSED
 TO ART POSING SWEET-TOOTH WON

When Paul W. Bartlett, the sculp- tor, started work on his equestrian statue of Lafayette, which the Knights of Columbus will present to the city of Metz next August, he searched far and wide to find a horse to pose for the figure. It was rather a difficult task, for New York is car-ridden, and the only horses readily available are utilitarian creatures that draw milk wagons and ash carts.
 But, by diligent search, Bartlett found a splendid animal, a real, old fashioned charger that any old fash toned colonel might be proud to be thrown from. MT. Bartlett bribeG the groom to bring the horse down to his studio. The entrance is small and cramped. By removing the lin tel of the door, the horse was able to get through without taking too long a course in contortionism. The stu dio is large as studios go, but small as stables go, and the horse didn't have much room to go through pre- lininary friskings before getting "set' A few plaster masterpieces were smashed by flying hoofs, and the neighbors thought first class studio row in progress.
