Two little girls were seated before
a plate that contained two lunches of
grapes-one very large and tempt
ing and perfect bunch, and the other
q small and hard and green bunch.
The youngsters regarded the two
punches for space Of time during
which they said nothing. Finally, the
polite child asked:
"Are you greedyr'

FARM LOAN BANKS
IN GOOD CONDITION.

"The Federal Land Banks are f.
nancially stronger today than at any
time since their organization, and
their net earnings since the month of
July, $257, ,000-were the largest for
any month in their history" was the
statement made by the Federal Farm
Loan Board recently This statement
vas prompted by the suggestion that
in some quarters an effort was being
made to create the impression that
pending litigation, which has tenn
porarily suspended the loaning oper-
ations of the Banks, was otherwise
impairing the Farm Loan System.
Commenting further, members of the
Board stated
''To understand this readily, t
should be borne in mind that the
earnings of a Federal Land Bank d.
not, like those of a commercial bank.
depend upon their current transa:-
tions. The loans Of the Federal Land
Banks are made for a long term of
years--mostly 341a years On the
unpaid balance of these loans each
bank has an annual income of from
Cre-half of one per cent to one per
cent. This earning is fixed and GER
tain regardless of new business. As
the total amount Of loans now in
force is S344,475.709. the extent and
stability of this income can readily
be seen. The increase in net income
for July is explained by the fact that,
while the fixed gross income was sub

ChAUTAUQUA
AND FESTIVAL HERE
OCTOBER 1928
LOT OF BIG ATTRACTIONS AND
SPLENDID PROGRAM OUGHT
TO GET FINE ATTENDANCE
OF LOCAL PEOPLE.

The winter chautauqua and festi-
val, signed up for the winter months.
is to be held here beginning Oct. %.
This is much earlier than had been
expected, and coming so early the
committee is finding it difficult to
meet all requirements, but several of
the guarantors are bearing the load
as best they can and it only fair that
all others who signed up for the
course put their shoulders to the
wheel and do their part.
The only fault found, as we under
stand it, is that the chautauqua com
pany are putting it on here so early.
The different entertainments are
high-class and the five days of en-
tertainment will be all that might be
expected. Tickets are now on sale
and all should buy and give this
event and its supporters good patron
age.

To race three thousand miles and

Mr. Guilbert also points out that

plication upon the State highway

the Carlyon plan than is possible IN

RED CROSS MATTERS.

Mrs Carrie H. Chapel executive
secretary of the Red Cross for Che
Ian County, visited Leavenworth
Monday and Tuesday in an effort to
find some one who would take charge
of the Fourth Annual Roll Call of the
Red Cross. which begins Nov. Il. No
one has been found who will accept
the possibility. Leavenworth
that made such a fine record during
war time, should not fall down now
that the war is over The Red Cross
today is spending money for much
emergency work. Since July seven
eX-service men from Chelan county
have been placed in hospitals for
treatment for ailments brought
about through wartime service. Sew
eral have received vocational training
in colleges OF their own selection;
and many minor troubles have been
adjusted. such as insurance and COM
pensation claims. Any ex-service
man who has any diciculties that the
war service was responsible for.
should apply to Home Service Section
Red Cross for Chelan Co.. at Wenat-
chez office. If some one will assume
charge o. the coming roll call thel
can get information by calling Mrs.

ACCIDENT At BLEWETT
NINE, SUNDAY.

An accident at the Blewett mine
Sunday resulted in the owner of the
car having his leg broken, and he and
two boys with him narrowly escaped
death.
The man, whose name we were un-
able to learn at this writing, had
been working down the valley and
Saturday started, accompanied by
the boys to drive to some point over
the Pass. The auto was not working
good and when Blewett was reached
they stopped and had the engine re-
wired. Sunday morning they prepar-
ed early to start on over, and just
after getting in motion the auto was
run off the small bridge over the
creek between the hotel and school
house. All three occupants of the
auto were caught and held under the
car and had it not been for the prompt
aid of a crew of wiremen. who were
on their truck and awaiting at the
other side of the bridge to cross. all
would have been drowned As it was
the boys escaped with but slight in
juries but the mans condition was
such that Dr. Brooks of Cashmere
who was called, decided that he could
not be moved to a hospital for two
days. We understand the leg was
broken in three places.

BOB HODGES TALK.

Bob Hodges, former labor leader,
spoke here last Saturday evening to
. medium-sized audience.
He told of his immigration to this
country thirty-one years ago and Of
working in the mines of Washington
for fourteen years; of marrying and
raising a family of four boys all Of
whom saw service in the great war.
He told of his six years service as
sheriff of King County and of retir-
INTO office and of returning with his
ing then poorer than when he went
eldest son to work in the mines. Then
he went on to say that many labor
ing men had expressed astonishment
because he was not campaigning for
the farmer-labor ticket, and told of
his conviction that nothing was to be
gained by third ticket. He gave the
republican party credit for all the
legislation ever enacted for the bene-
I'll of the laboring man. spoke Of
President Wilson as an autocrat and
gave credit to the republican party
for all that he had accomplished or
ever expected to do.
His talk was a fairly good one from
the republican standpoint. but it is
doubtful if his talk resulted in any
gain for his party Harking back 70
the dusty records and doubtful glory
cf the past cuts no ice in these days
with the independent voter. A for
ward-looking platform with reason
able promise of conforming to that
platform after electien is what is 90
