With the Kind of Walls You Put In 1t
Here are a few reasons why your Home should
have walls that can stand the wear:
The walls of every room are subject to an ap-
preciable amount of abuse. Sharp ends of
heavy furniture are sometimes pushed into the
wall. The backs of rocking chairs, ends of
beds, and corners of heavy trunks make I'M
slightly holes wherever they knock against

FIRE SWEEPS MINING
TOWNS; MILLION DAMAGE

WALLACE, Idaho, July ID. =
Misery stalks today in the little
towns of Burke and Mace, mining
centers seven miles east of here.
after a devastating fire starting
about 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon
and sweeping its way through nearly
a mile and a half of homes, stores
and mining works. At midnight last
night, no death had been reported,
but the entire business section CT
Burke was destroyed and virtually
every home in ruins. The loss is
put at $1,000, 000.
Mace, adjoining Burke on the
west, suffered less seriously, the
flames having been famed by a west
wind away from the conflagration's
starting place. :.
About a thousand persons are said
to be homeless. They were driven
ahead of the fire towards Thompson
Falls. Men, women and children
last night were frantically trying to
save their belongings from the on
slaught of the flames. Many lost
all they possessed.
1t was announced by officials OF
the Hercules mining company that
the Hecla Surface Works were de-
stroyed though the Hercules plant
had been saved. Loss to the Hecla
is estimated by local min
ing men at between ~S750,00O and
81, 900, 900. The electric hoist of the
Hecla, one of the largest in the
world, was burned.s

How satisfying it is to see indl-

themselves. Only one of every ten
adults is a pretty fair estimate
depicting those who know a good
posture and what is more, who have
one The other nine have been care
less. their defects having been ac-
quired while they were young. Poor
posture is indicative of indigestion,
weak lungs, i'll health, awkwardness
and a bad figure. By the same
token we recognize in the good pos
ture. good indigestion, strong lungs,
good health, grace and a good fig
ure. A hollow chest, shallow
breathing and poor circulation ac-
company poor posture; developed
chest deep breathing, good c%ircula-
tioi. and vigorous health go hand
in hand with goo dposture.
Nor only the appearance; the ma
chinery chest and abdominal organs,
are cramped. and thathmeans lese1-
ed efficiency. 1t is Natures plan
that the body remain naturally seq
mented: head and neck trunk and
feet shall be balanced one over the
other in a straight line. Nature has
thoughtfully endowed us with a
backbone in order that we might sit
and stand straight. Two-thirds of
life is spent on the feet and in
shoes, and 1t therefore behooves us
to furnish proper footing for life.
How to acquire and maintain the
good posture is the question. Young
children as a rule have good posture.
Let Nature take it's our and that
good posture will be maintained.

RETAIL CLERKS WILL
FORM ORGANIZATION

The organizing spirit seems to have
struck the Harbor. During the pas
two months two organizations have
been formed and another group OF en-
ployes have declared their intention
of organizing. The group referred to
are the clerks employed in nNmber
of department and clothing stores in
Aberdeen. During 1920 the Clerks
union negotiated with the managers OF
the retail stores and got their consent
to close at six o'clock during week
days and also Saturdays. Since that
time the clerks have ceased to func-
tion and many of the stores, some re-
Gently opened, are now open Satur-
day, stores in practically every line OF
business. This means that the clerks
have to work longer hours on Satur-
day. The clerks employed in the
stores that close at six Saturday
know that unless some pressure is
brought to bear on the stores keep
ing open, that eventually all the stores
will be forced to keep open in order
to compete with stores open Saturday
evening. The clerks propose to check
this tendency by organizing and meet
ing with the managers, again asking
all to close at six o'clock as formerly

PROFIT IN RAILROAD

why these concerns are urging stock
holders to call on congress to leave
the railroads alone"
Profits for the first half of 1928
have been unusually large, and pros
poets are bright for a continuance OF
this condition il congress makes no
change in the free hand railroads
have of paying for their equipment tc
companies with whom their directors
are interlocked. Locomotive CON-
panies have been especially benefited
because of the shipments strike, and
the three leading locomotive concerns
have been operating to capacity AL
OF the equipment companies report
large earnings after dividends, depre-
citation and taxes have been paid.

ON LABOR DAY, PLAN

To make Labor Day, 1928, the big
gest and best celebration every held
is the aim Of the Tacoma labor unions
The committee has already been APP
pointed by the central council to take
charge Of the initial preparations for
that purpose.
The secretary Of the council has
been instructed to write each local
union to appoint a member on this
committee. Indications are that the
response to this invitation win be
generally favorable and that labor in
Tacoma will unite to put over its own
holiday on an unprecedented scale
with fraternity and unity, the preva-
lent spirit.
