Lives Of "A Men, of Whom

When Giant Airship
Breaks in Two.

LONDON Aug. 25.-News from
Hull today will not tighten the weight
of the tragedy there yesterday when
the ZR-2 collapsed and plunged to
destruction with loss Of "A lives.
The air ministry has under advise
ment plans for great public funeral
probably in London, for both the Am
erican and British victims.
1t has been learned that the admir-
atty had not authorized the American
airmen to accompany the ZR-2 on the
fatal trip, but Air Commodore Matt
land took the responsibility of allow
ing them to make the trip into his own
hands.
HULL, England, Aug. 25.-DiverS
this morning began exploring the
wreck of the ZR-2, which exploded and
fell into the River Humber carrying
more than 40 Of the crew to their
deaths. Only one American, Normal
Walker, rigger, and four British
survived. 1t is believed that the ruins
of the c~eat dirigible holds the bodies
of Is Americans and 26 British officers
and men.
HOWDEN, England, Aug. 25.-The
cause of the disaster to the ZR-2, ac-
cording to the best information OBJ
tainable here, the base of the destroyed
dirigib,e, was the breaking of longi-
tudinal girder amidship, made of alum
mum alloy, which cut the airship in
two. The explosion occurred im>
diately after the girder gave way, but
the explosion was not the cause of the
breaking of the airship

HONOLULU, T. H. Nov. "a
One Of the privileges enjoyed by
residents of our mid Pacific Ter
ritory is that of witnessing the
ceremonials and customs Oh the
always fascinating Orient.
One of the most interesting Of
these ceremonials is the observ-
ance Of the Chinese festival of
full Moon, marked in the Chinese
calendar as the fifteenth night of
the eighth moon, which commen-
ced this year on September 15.
This festival, originated by the
Emperor Ming Hwang Of the
Tang dynasty in the eighth cen
tury, is now a major holiday of
the Chinese people and is observ-
ed by the, rich and poor alike, the
world over.
In Honolulu, where the Sep
tember moon is perhaps little
brighter and more glorious than
at any other place in the world
the feast of the Full Moon is
observed principally by the ex-
change of gifts among the Chin
ese residents and by feasting on
the night when the moon is at
its full. On that night through

the most leading advocaters of
the fair. Why do l think this,
you ask. Because my experience
has taught me that the world as
whole has no general concep-
tion as to Oregon's great resours-
es, and that the best way for the
0regonians to advertise Oregon to
the world is to do it in way
that the other fellow pays his part
in gaining the great information
concerning Oregon and her won
derful future.
1t is true that we feel that our
taxes are high enough and al
most unbearable, but this is not
a good reason why we should fail
to see the advantages to be deriv-
ed for every nook, and corner, of
our beautiful state by and through
this Worlds Fair. Our state fair
is practically a local concern, it
pays us well, you must admit, and
practically all the money received
is Oregon money Ga famous af-
fair.) This Worlds Fair will
bring money to Oregon from all
over the world, but the best of all
it will bring people by the thous-
ands and tens of thousands, who

Apples Rotting

Thousands of barrels Of apples
are rotting on the trees and upon
the ground throughout the mari

With the duty fixed at 80 cents
a bushel, freight rates at 39 cents
a hundredweight and the cost OIL
barrels at z cent seach, the Cana
dian farmers rather than accept
the small prices offered by Ameri-
can produce men are allowing most

pick it from the trees.
For miles bright red and yellow
fruit still clinging to the trees can
be seen in the Annapolis valley
while in the states top prices are
asked for this good old pie-making
material.
What is true Of the apple ike
wise applies to the potato ana
turnip crops.
Potatoes can be purchased In
Nova Scotia for 6 0cents a bushel
and the price is still travelling
downward.
Potatoes and turnips are being
fed ocattle, the farmers prefer
ring to adopt this measure of dis
posal rather than pay the high
duty and the cost of barrels.

Suppose you had the settling
Of your nei6hbors problem

Postum is free from the possibility of harm
for any one, and full of comfort and satisfac-
ton for every one. Even the little children
can share in the delights of hot. mealtime
cup Of Postum.
No fears, either that Postum will rob the
night Of sleep as coffee SO often does. Postum
is friendly drink for any one any time.
And it's goodl When you've tried Postum a
few days you'll wonder why you ever thought
of sacrifice in leaving off coffee or tea. Rich
and havory and satisfying, Postum suits the
taste so that there's no longer any thought
that you should drink it; only the thought
that you want to drink it.
Postum opened the better road and the safe
road for coffee and tea drinkers more than
quarter of century ago, and steadily
increasing multitude is travelling that road
up and on to better enjoyment, better eff
ciency, better accomplishment.
You can buy Postum wherever good food
and drink are sold and served. You can begin,
now, this turn to the right road which you
would so quickly recommend for Brown-by
ordering Postum from your family grocer or
telling your waiter at the restaurant to serve
you Postum instead Of coffee or tea.
Make Postum according to directions and
enjoy its delicious flavor; find the change in
fleeing after weeks use of fPostum. Let the
family join you in the trip up the sunrise way.
You'd know what to say to Brown-say it
to yourself.

Suppose the road Brown is on is the coHee
or tea road. Hundreds have had trouble on
that road. Doctors have sounded the warning
for the public, and raised the 'no-traffic" sign
for their patients time and time again. The
drugs, caffeine in coffee and THEM in tea, keep
whipping the nerves tending to interfere with.
sleep, upset digestion, produce high blood
pressure, and to wear down health and eff
cheney by the disturbance of rest and nervous
balance. Some folks go long way on the road;
some folks don't seem to notice the jolts-for
while, anyway.
But what would you say to Brown about
choosing the safe road instead of the risky one9

Summer School
Records Show
Many Failures

Students who go to summer
school with the idea that studies
will be easy, strict attendance
unnecessary, home study useless.
and easy teachers, receive an un-
pleasant surprise at the end Of
the term. Very true they gave
up something. playtime. to en-
able them to go to school. but the
student should know that school
in the summer time is as i'm
portant as in the winter and
fall.
Summer schools are open for
two reasons, principally to help
the student who failed and to
help the student who desires to
skip a grade. Very well for
students who desire to skip a
grade but that does not mean
that they will have to study any
less than the student who failed.
II the student is attending for
failure in promotion he must
work that much harder. He can't
afford to spend his time as the
fellow who skips.
