Merely Mary Ann" Cast Of Ten Years Ago Shows
Staid Citizens Guilty of Amateur Theatricals

We are about to pry into the
secrets Of the dark and fearsome
past. Respected members of the

defense for we are about to reveal
the fact that such respected members

in fact will increase the feeling of
fraternity and good will which will
go far toward making this old earth

CHILD's STORY

There was once beautiful grove
Of trees, and in this grove the trees
were green and brown. The names
Of these trees were the birch, the
hemlock. maple. fir, spruce. ana
hazelnut. Now this grove was very
long and not very wide. Every even
ing the trees would whisper what
they had seen that day. They would
start whispering at one end of the
grove, and tell the next one until
each one knew 1t. One day some Of
the trees got in an argument over
which was the prettiest. They finally
decided on the fir and the maple.
One day a family of squirrels
moved to that part Of the grove. The
maple said, "Come to me-" but the
squirrels said, mo, no." "No, no; l
am not going to live in your
branches" Pretty soon the fir saw
the squirrels. The fir said, "Come,
live with me this winter" But the
squirrels said that they would rather
live in the tree next door. 1t was a
hazelnut tree. They made large
house house in the hazelnut tree to
store their nuts in and then they
made another one in the hemlock,
where they lived.
The squirrels stayed in the grove
many years and were very happy.

Klumb, chairman of the service

$2,345 remains yet to be raised.
"Our own Olympia boys must have
these privileges" Mr.. Klumb insists,
land we must do the job. A little
more help will put the plan over

community service for boys. Again
let us ask, have you done all you
can?
"All workers will eat supper at

CREORCE D. FARWELL
WANTS BONUS PAYMENT
Claims Compensation for Death Of
His Major Farwell, Who Died
in France. I

State Auditor c. w. Clausen has
been ordered to appear before the
suprme court of this state at 10
O'Clock on May 81, to show cause
why he should not issue warrent
to George D. Farwell Of Tacoma, by
Chief Justice Emmett N. Parker Of
the supreme bench. Farwell claims
that he has 1855 due him in bonus
money.
In the petition presented to the
supreme court Mr.. Tarwell states
that his son, Major George w. Far
we'll, entered the service May s,
1917, and served until September 80,
1918, when he died as the result Of
wounds he received while fighting in
France. Mr.. Farwell put in a claim
for this compensation to the Veterans
Compensation department Of the
state auditors ONCE in February and
the claim was rejected on May 8,
on the ground that Major Farwell
was survived by a wife who is now
living in England. The state auditor
contends that under the Veterans
Compensation act a father or mother
cannot secure the compensation
money II the service man is surviv-
ed by widow or children.
Sons Widow Remarked
Mr.. Farwell states that his daugh-
ter-in-law remarked in England on
June /, 1919, or eight months after
her husband, Major Farwell, died,
and that she is now in good circum-
stances. has an Independent income,
and that she is not q widow, but had
remarked at the time that the bonus
act was passed.
Mr.. Farwell further states that he
was dependent upon his son and
that during the war he received an
allotment Of SIS per month from
his son.
Attorney George Mckay Of Taco
ma. represents Farwell, while Attor-
ney General Thompson will handle
the Case for the state.

A BETTER UNDERSTANDING
BY FRED w. LEWIS


Written for farewell reception to
Rev. T. H. Simpson. given by the
Carpenters Of Olympia and the Men S
club Of United Churches).
In these days OF distrust and CEN
sure. when every walk in life seems
to be in opposition to every other
calling; when the man whose money
is invested in business undertakings
Is considered by the man who labors
with his hands as an enemy; when,
all too often, the merchant is con-
sidered, by his customers as a rob-
Der; when the farmer is looked upon
by the city consumer as plutocratic
highwayman; when the boss in the
mill or the factory is looked upon as
Il brigand; when the off1ceholder is
accused of being freebooter and all
around crook; when every man ds-
t, usts his neighbor md feels that he
is liable to be robbed il he has any
dealings with him, 1t shows that
something is fundamentally wrong,
and 1t is coming to be recognized
that lack Of understanding Of each
other is accountable for this abnor-
NAL condition.
We who have lived long enough
are convinced that our neighbor Is
not so bad a fellow after we have be-
come thoroughly acquainted with
him, and l am confident that three
fourths. at least, of our quarrels and
disagreements would be ended II we
really understood the true conditions
underlying the difficulty.
1t is quite generally conceded by
those who are in CLOSETS touch with
humanity at large, that men and
women are inherently honest and it
is environment and immediate condi-
tions that are the cause of dishon-
esty; quite often it Is the result OF
trying to right an imaginary wrong,
or getting even with the world for
some fancied injury.
A better understanding of our
neighbor, be he the boss in our fac
tory, the merchant that sells US
goods, the milkman who supplies our
family with milk, the green grocer
who supplies our table with vege-
tables, the workman in our shop, the
clerk in our store, or anyone with
whom we are brought into contact OF
whose life and work affects ours will,
by giving us a better understanding
Of them, tend to lessen the distrust
that now exists and will tend to in
crease the feeling Of brotherhood
that is all too scarce at present.
All too many, in later years, >dis.
trust the church and accuse 1t of in
consistency and hypocrisy. 1t is true
that there is hypocrisy in our church
es, but I believe there is strong
tendency. among the younger church
men at least, to better recognize the
fact Of brotherhood among men, and
as a result the church is becoming
really a messenger Of Christ to a
world in need of righteousness.
We have yet far to go before we
come to a thorough understanding of
each other, but such meetings as this.
where we rub shoulders with our
