SUGGESTIVE

You will hear it said that such and
such a magazine prints suggestive
stories, meaning that they present
cOrrunting ideas in an attractive
dress. But there is a suggestiveness
also of quite a different sort-the
suggestiveness that quickens the
readers sense Of duty, stimulates
ambition, gives courage to face ad-
versity, fOrtities against yielding
easily to temptation. 1t is this better
KIND of SuggestivenesS that o will
find on almost every page of The
Youths Companion. Which of these
two kinds of su~ggestiveness would
you wish to have exert an influence
in your family life?

THE WIRELESS
TELEPHONE TEST.

The wireless concert given by Mr..
H. K. Barwick, Jr., at the Cash Gro
Gerry Store in Grenada Monday night,
was almost a revelation to a great
many. Quite a large crowd gathered
to witness this only another one of
the many exhibitions of what, may be
done with electricity-that great
force or power which man knows of
but yet is not acquainted with. Con-
n~ection was had with New York and
Chicago and delightful music heard
a thousand miles distant. Atmospher-
lc conditions were somewhat adverse
to perfect connections, still the music
was just as plain as if it were being
reeled off right there in the store. In
hearing this music and in thinking of
the marvels of wireless ~telegraphy
and the telephone, one can hardly
fail to speculate about what is stored
in the aerial regions-the voices of
Moses the Prophet and the thousands
of other things which are numbered
with the long ago.
Mr.. Barwick has installed a num-
Der of wireless stations at different
in Arkansas all of which are
working with wonderful success.

attractive new home lends itself beau

the love and friendship of her one

blossoms were a very real token of
that love.

Bearcat Recruits
To Get Chance to
Show Their PAGES

Ashby, and the other new bas-
ketball possibilities who entered
Willamette at the opening of the
second semester last week, will get
chance to show their wares
when the Bearcats and Chemawa
meet on the Indian school floor.
according to Coach Roy Boiler,
who went to Portland today to
attend the meeting to arrange a
spring relay carnival between the
colleges and universities of Oregon
to be held next month.
Every man of the squad is going
to get chance 70 work against
the Indians tonight, Boiler says,
and the new and second string
men will be probably be called up
on to carry the principal burden.
Boiler has two reasons for adopt
ing this course-he wants to see
what his new men can do, and he
isn't taking any chances of having
his first string crippled for the
coming Nevada and Oregon games.

w hats New
on the Market
BY REX STEWART

Rhubarb, fresh from the patch
es of Walla Walla, was displayed
this morning In small quantities.
1t is extremely high for the reas-
on Of it's scarcity and the first to
appear since last fall. 1t is not
generally distributed, and un-
doubtedly will not be on the mar
ket long this time. The retail
price Is 25 cents a pound.
Another increase of 20 to 40
cents per barrel is expected some
time next week in flour. This will
raise the price per shck five or 10
cents. The housewife may rest as
sured that further increases will
be made from time to time.
Columbia river smelt will again
be on the market next week in
larger quantities, and priced at
about three pounds for a quar-
ter. This is a considerable reduc-
tion since the first arrivals.
Eggs may go down. Shippers
report that they have all they can
handle. Retailers are well sup
piled. Throughout the day, how
ever, the prices remained the
same.
The few vegetables on the mar
ket have reached their top prices,
a reduction in prices may be ex-
pected within a few weeks.
