They went prepared to enter num-
Der OF the contests arranged for the
scouts, such as the tug of war. the
human obstacle race, starting a fire
by friction, water boiling, knot tying.
and the relay races. But these things
were only incidental, after all. as to
many Of the boys Wenatchee was the
big city, a far away place where ey-
erything was strange, different and
immensely interesting to wide eyed
observers and lively, youthful immagi

GROWERS TO ACT :
ON ADVERTISING
New Trade Name to be Selected-Plan
for National Campaign Being
Pushed.

A trade name, rather than the name
Of any particular locality, to be used
in advertising the apples of north
central Washington, was recommended
Monday by committee representing
apple growers of OrOville, Okanogan
and Omak, that met at Omak Monday
afternoon and discussed the whole
question Of the proposed national ad-
vertising campaign to increase the de-
nand for apples.
w. A. CRUDE represented Oroville
growers, while J. w. Forsythe, w. II.
Dickson and George Lee represented
Okanogan and Omak growers. The
meeting was arranged by Tom Haskell
OF Eenatchee for the purpose of de-
termining within the next few days
what cooperation can be obtained from
The growers of the OkanOgan valley in
supporting the campaign first sug-
s,sted Dy Wenatchee growers and
shippers.
This committee urged that commit
teemen in the various Okanogan dis
lricts Immediately obtain the sigma.

nents to sign contracts 10 help finance
the advertising campaign with the un-
derstandlng tnat the contracts will be

In order to determine upon a trade
name the various committees from
PaterOs north are asked to make sug-

nas gwen assurance of les willingness
70 aDlde by tne uecision in this matter
arrived at by the northern commun-
tiles.
Two names were suggested at the
Omak meeting, one Was Sunset APP
pie" and the other, offered by Mr.
CRUDE, Northern Light Apple" The
latter met with favor as it was more
distinctive and in no way suggestive OF
imitation. 1t can be adapted most ef-
lectively IN designing seal and in
'ifiustr;rtions for advertising purposes
and is appropriate IN that this is a
country where the northern lights
occur frequently and with great splen-
dor.
A meeting of the. growers of the Oro-
vile district has been called for to-
night (Friday) for the purpose of gett-
ing as many as will to sign an agree
lnent to support the advertising cam
paign that the acreage from this vi
cinity may be reported Saturday.
Post card notices have been sent
to the growers inviting them to the
meeting this evening and it is hoped
that all will attend. When the pro-
posal to organize growers in support
OF national advertising campaign
10 create wider demand for apples
was first broached here, it met with
general favor among the apple men.
The announcement from Wenatchee
later that those in charge Of organic
ing for the campaign had selected as
slogan Eat Wenatchee Apples
dampened the enthusiasm of the
growers throughout the Okanogan
| country, but it did not shake their
| conviction that national advertising
campaign is necessary to the welfare
of the industry in this section. Now
| that decision has been made to select
Il name more comprehensive in its
character it is felt that the growers
will be practically unit in support

TONASKKET MAN HAS AIRPLANE.
Pilots Machine from Spokane with r.

[. Dodge as Passenger.
An airpiane. piloted by Verne Book
walter of Tonasket scared about over
Oroville for several hours Sunday af-
ternoon, coming to earth now and
then to drop passenger and pick up
another. Several local people found
the required courage and cash to take
jaunt in the blue. The airplane was
brought from Spokane a week ago
Saturday by Mr.. Bookwalter who has
obtained license to pilot the machine.
The Tonasket Times tells of the ad-
vent of the plane as follows
"Tonasket's aviator, Verne Book
walter, returned with his airplane
from Spokane-iast Saturday evening
The homecoming was viewed by a
large number of people, although more
would have seen him had the time of
his arrival been known in advance.
With Bookwalter was that other in
trepid enthusiast of the flying art,
T. c. Dodge, who made the trip as a
passenger. Two hours and fifty-five
minutes was the flying time recorded
by the aviators. They reported splen-
did and uneventful trip, having made
but two landings at Bridgeport and
Okanogan-on the way over. The ma
chine is IA Curtis army biplane, was
built for service during the war and
bears the army insignia. 1t has been re-
fitted with an entirely new motor and
as a piece of mechanism is as nearly
perfect as can be imagined. It's per-
formance in the air is beautiful, it is
as graceful as a bird, and carries its
pilot and extra passenger with the
greatest of ease at any desired alti-
tude. Several long flights as well as
evening exhibitions have been made by
Bookwalter since his return. An eXhi-
bition in flying will be one of the at
fractions at the Wauconda celebration

Authorities declare it is impos-
sible to say what period of time
would be consumed in the process
outlined, but it is held in several
quarters that such matter could be
so managed as to create a new state
within a few months, after the ini-
tiative action of the Legislature of
the parent state. 1t also is conceded
that it would be possible for unlim-
tied delays to occur after the proc
ess had passed beyond the control OF
the territory affected.
1t is held that a different course
could lawfully be pursued in that the
whole question could be submitted
first to the vote of the entire state
and, should tn evote be favorable
then the course outlined above could
be followed to the same end. Or, il
is said, an act consenting to the Gre
ating of the proposed new state and
It's necessary provisions, could be
passed with a referendum clause
submitting it to the people Of the
whole state, TO become effective aft
err being ratified by q majority vote.
