Community Pride

1t is insignificant sign of increasing vitality and
local pride in rural districts that many farmers are
investing in securities Of their electric light and power
companies This is splendid answer to the question:
Why should farmers who are the best and most reg
ular investors in the whole country put their money
into industries and utilities and into industries and
utilities whose products have direct bear
ing on their everyday lives?"
At this time, light and power may not have yet been
brought into the farming districts: the number and
location of customers may not at present justify the
expense of constructing and maintaining line to give
such services but adequate financial support and fair
regulation tends surely toward this accomplishment
The Light and Power Company has beneficial and
progressive effect on the whole district. This Com
pany is selling it's securities to many terms that
exceptionally convenient to the desrious of max
ing his savings count for the most.

Hurry! It's your duty! Each day
you see a little more hair falling out
and you are making no effort to
avoid badness. What a pity. Fall
ing hair means your hair Is weak,
sick,=possibly dandruff is strangling
it, or the hair root pores in the scalp
are not firm and tight, thus wasting
the h~air-growing oils.
D~anderine almost instantly stops
falling hair of men or women and
cleans every particle Of dandruff
away, then the hair takes on new
life, vfgor and strength to grow
strong, thick, and long.
Danderine is delightful - not
sticky or greasy. Go to any drug

Of the 5s ballots coming in the second mail on the city auditorium site. the vote was four to one in favor of the site In Smiths park do- mated to the city by the heirs of the late pr. Joseph R. Smith, compared with choice for the Eighth avenue site purchased by the city.
 Totalling the vote in the first and second mails the Smiths park site leads the Eighth avenue site by q little over five to one.
 Summary of the vote in the first two mails Is this:
 For smith park site. 50.
 For Eighth avenue site, il
 For some other site, D.
 The vote is practically unanimous to effect that the city should go ahead with the money in hand. There has been only one negative vote, city and county should go together and build a courthouse. city hall and auditorium Two others say go ahead if the funds are enough for 8 large auditorium. The vote to go ahead with money in hand Is q to g.
 The voters are making 10000 seating capacity the popular slogan. That led in the first mall and led in a moro pronounced way in the second mail Vote up to yesterday evening on capacity was this:
 Vote on Capacity
 Thirty five for 10000 capacity. nine for 5000 to 10000 nine for 5000 one for 1000 to 10000 one for 7,5o0, two for 5000 to 1000, two for 5000

to 1000 one for over 5000. two for 5000 and one for 1000.
 Of those who object to both Smiths park and the Eighth avenue sites, one Is for. the market house site on Third avenue, another for Woodrow Wilson park. another for West park and third for a site Somewhere between Woodrow Will son park and the Phillips High school" while the rest content them selves with objecting to Smiths park and the Eighth avenue lot without specifying where they want the auditorium to be.
 Attention Is called to error in stating the slze of the lot on Eighth avenue. That is 2o0x500 feet instead of the 240x250 feet ns stated. The error was due to transformation.
 Grows in Interest
 1t ia quite evident from the larger size of the second mall that the refer- endum is growing in interest. Very little has been heard from the western part of the city, which is expected to turn in good vote as soon as il realizes the drift of tho referendum.
 1t has been suggested to The Age Herald that 1t throw out the votes for placing the auditorinn Inside one ct the parks because they are dedf- ckted to park purposes and that pro- hibits building auditoriums in them The Age-Herald will, however, tabu- late this vote as we'll as other the referendum being open to any view point. whether sound or unsound.

By Associated Press

Washington, June 16.-Republican leaders of the House will confer again with President Harding on the question of taking up the admins tration's ship subsidy bill prior to ad- journment.
 Indications tonight were they would reiterate the belief that con sideration of the measure ought to go over until the December session but leaders declared they would force 1t to vote if the President insisted.
 The bill was reported to the House by the merchant marine committee which rejected the Bankhead amend ment providing that no government aid should go to ships on which liq- uor was sold. There was no action on the Edmonds proposal for imposition of $1o.000 fines on all ships. Amerl- can or foreign. which sold liquor on any voyage starting or ending at an American port.
 Will Demand Vote
 Defeated by the committee MT. Bankhead announced he would de- mand a vote on his amendment in the House. The amendment was op- posed by republicans and supported by democrats
 The prohibition question h'A wrapped itself so closely about the bill that many leaders admittedly were in doubt as to how 1t might stand up in the House. Injection of the ship liquor issue into the fight. according to republicans opposing

 This interpretation was taken as settling for the time being the con- troversy over liquor on government ships precipitated by Adolphus Busch III, the St. Louis brewer, when he wrote President Harding that the government was bootlegging by per- hitting sale of alcoholic beverages on shipping board vessels.
 Solution of the problem, Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the anti saloon league declared tonight, Ties in excluding all ships that sell liquor from American ports" Legislation to this end is being considered, he said.
 The new regulations were not drafted with the intention of settling the question of liquor on shipping board vessels. MT. Wise said. and in fact were written before that ques- said they would apply equally to American and foreign ships int per- hitting intoxicating sea stores within the three-mile line under the customs regulations which provide that while in American ports all liquors on boar a ship must be sealed in.

 The clerks were cut and cents an hour according to their classifi- cation, the signalmen cents and the firemen 2 cents.
 Approximately 100000 railway employees will share the total reduc1 tion which has brought vigorous pro- test from every union involved and will result in a strike vote of ten rail- way labor bodies. The voting all ready Is under way in seven unions and the three affected by today's order are expected to mall their bal- lots Immediately.
