Financing

One of the greatest problems facing
the industry is that of financing oper-
alton and new construction. Stats
tics show that projects costing $602,-
$4,000 are actually known to be I'M
der construction and will be complet.
ed during the current calendar year,
1t Is estimated that the amount actu.
ally expended during 1923 in new con
struction will reach at least $650,000,-
900. This will bring the total invest
ment in the electric light and power
industry at the close Of 1923 to the
huge sum of s5,750,000,OO Figuring
with this as basis, it Is estimated
that owing to reduced rates being put
in effect by many companies in all
parts Of the country, the gross earn
ings Of all electric light and power
companies in the country will in
crease only $7O,OOO,0O0, or in other
words, for an increased gross income
Of $70,000,000 the industry this year
is investing in permanent improve
ments and increases $650,000,00O. Last
year the gross income was $1,oS4,-
100000. This year 1t is estimated that
it will be $1,150,000,0OO

Preliminary to the nationwide cam

ment and buildings to be launched in
May by Whitman College, "the sing
ing college of the Pacific" is plan
ming to send it's All-Whitman Glee
Club on tour of the Northwest. Whit
mans first glee club was organized
35 years ago Since that time the col
lege has become known throughout
the West for the quality Of singers.
The 1924 Glee Club is a distinct in
novation, for instead of establishing
the customary separate musical or
CARNATIONS for the men and women,
the college has selected the finest
voices from both groups and organ
lied them into combined All-Whit-
man concert aggregation to represent
it during the coming tour.
The first public presentation Of the

EARN WINS DOG DERBY

ASHTON.-Youth was served with
a vengeance recently when 16-year-
old Olcott Earn, 1.-The kid" outfought
and outmaneuvered seven veterans OF
the snow trails and won the 25mile
American dog derby in 2 hours, %
minutes and 40 seconds.
Earn dashed in / minute and 81 sec.
onds ahead of Warren Cordingly, who
placed second, and 10 minutes ahead
Of the redoubtable Shorty" Russick,
Canadian knight of the trail, who per
formed the almost impossible and
brought his leaderless string into
fourth place. Smoky" CASTOR, last
years champion, took third. "Tud
Kent, four times winner of the race
and favorite this year, dropped out at
the start of the third and last lap on
account of two almost exhausted dogs
THE Kid" finished with an exhausted
dog in his sledge. The record for the
course is 2 hours and minutes.
The race was a double feature af
fair, with 1.-THE Kid" having the place
of prominence but closely pushed by
Shorty" Russick. Russick became a
favorite of the crowd as soon as he
announced he would drive the team
which "Whistling Lyd" Hutchinson
found 1t impossible to drive when the
leader became i'll. "Shorty's" chances
were poor from the start but his game
and skillful efforts were rewarded by
an ovation by the crowd little short
Of that given "The Kid"
Promptly at o'clock the judges
gave the word and Russick, who hat
drawn first place, swung into the
race with the ease of man used tt
the trail. Five minutes later Cord
ingley started and then Earn. The
others followed in turn. Russick
driving without May-A-Gan, his leat
dog, suffered another handicap wheI
he came back into town on the frs
lap. His dogs, frightened at the
cheers Of the crowd, became unman
ageable and five precious minutes
were lost in making scant hal

10 minutes behind the winner
The Kid" however, proved master
of the situation at all times. Three
times had the champions defeated
him, the first time when he was but
IL years old. At Is he placed third
And in this race, with little more
age, little more stride, little more
strength to guide his sledge, and witt
dogs little more accustomed to the
gruelling test he swerved past his
former conquerors, and proved to al
that 1.-THE Kid" was, as far as the
race went, at least man.

stockings; and two pairs, one finer
than the other; saw person well
through season, provided for all
occasions. Whether it was short
skirts, the French influence, or
that modern deus ex machina, the
advertising man, which brought
hosiery into primary place in
the world of costuming, | am not
sure. But today, it can hardly be
termed anything as incidental as
an accessory. Whole outfits are
determined by it, and instead Of
wearing one pair now with several
dresses, we change costume by
having several pairs to wear with
each. One company alone in this
country could supply a woman
with a different kind of hose every
day for years without ever repeat
ing. In Onyx hose, for example,
woman can wear different
kind every day for four years, four
months and twenty days; and it
isn't only women who go in for
variety. A. man could demand
equal novelty and it would take
one year, nine months, and Ia days
for him to reach the point Of dupli-
cation.
New York shipping circles were
thrilled by the recent arrival of
the "Duilio" of the Navigazione
Generate Italiana. The "Duilio"
is considered by steamship men
the most beautiful ship in the
world. 1t is a floating museum of
art in the form of antique furni-
ture and beautiful woods, paint
ings and tapestries.
During this, its first trip to the
United States, the leading Italian
motion picture company produced
on board many scenes of new
comedy by Giovacchino Forzano,
famous scenario writer. Other
scenes were taken in New York,
and the final scenes were filmed
during the return voyage to Italy.
In the company were Si2nora ia
cobini, called the Mary Pickford
of Italy, Eleuterio Rudolf, Signor
Bilancio and "Maciste,' famous as
the gigantic slave in "Cabiria."
The "Duilio" will run regularly in
the passenger service between the
United States and Italy. -

Ayrshires Make
Record Progress

The Ayrshire Breeders Association
has just completed the best year in
it's history. For period of "a con-
secutive months it's business each
month has exceeded that for the cor
responding month of the previous
year. Not only has a steady increase
been maintained for two years, but
in December, 1923, the oath month of
this notable record of progress, more
registrations and transfers were re-
corded and more work completed than
in any previous month since the asso-
citation was formed
The best evidence of the increasing
popularity of the Red and White cow
as reflected in the associations rec
ords is the increase of 23.4 per cent
in the number of transfers during
1928 over those made in 1922. The
1923 total is 1893, which is exclusive
of the considerable number of ami
mails which changed ownership when
less than nine months of age for
which no transfer is required, il they
have not yet been already recorded,
the registry certificate being issued
in the name OF the buyer. The num-
Der of females recorded 5,975, is an
increase Of 1872 per cent over 1922
Certificates were issued for LET'S
males, which is the greatest number
ever recorded in single year. One
hundred and sixty new members en-
tered the association, 25 per cent
more than in the previous year,
bringing the total membership to
1882. A gratifying indication Of the
interest of members in their Ayrshire
business was the payment of fees for
the issuance of 141 farm name certifi-
Gates giving exclusive right to the use
of these names in registering Ayr
shires and bringing the total number
of names registered to 357.
The Ayrshire Advanced Registry
year is not yet complete, but the num-
Der of records will fall short of that
for 1922, a situation common to all of
the dairy breeds. The number for
the two-year period will, however, ex-
coed by comfortable margin that for
any, other two years and the average
of the milk and fat productions will
be the highest yet made.
The Ayrshire Breeders Association
enters 1924 strongly confident that the
Red and Whites will more than main
tain the high rate of advance set in
1928. There is growing recognition
Of the productive qualities Of the
breed In whole milk districts and
on farms where certified milk is made
the per cent product of the Ayrshire
is finding special favor and developing
strong market for milking cows of
the breed. The marked increase in
members of the association and other
new breeders in middle western states
results from the breeds demonstrated
adaptation to the general dairy farm
ing conditions there. 1t is in recog
milton Of this favorable sentiment to-
ward the Red and Whites and the op-
portunities for Ayrshire extension in
the midwest that the 1924 annual
meeting Of the Ayrshire Breeders
Association is being held June IL in
Milwaukee, the first time west OF
New York state.

is fundamentally educational. Its
posters cover every phase of the
child's bodily, mental and spiritual
development from before birth to
full manhood.
Speak ;ng of one these posters,
one mother said, ~ nagged at my
boy for weeks and months until,
in despair, stopped talking and
just hung up that poster in the
bathroom. From that day, l never
again had to remind him to brush
his teeth" Truly, posters speak
louder than words
The Association insists that
health is not an end in itself, but
only a means to greater happiness
and usefulness,-that the true aim
of education is character building.
Therefore great part of the more
than 500 posters issued by the or
ganization teach such virtues as
thrift, kindness to animals, good
habits in reading, neatness, hon.
esty, courage, industry, and the
other fundamentals of manly and
womanly character. Parents all
over the country,-and in foreign
lands also,-testify to the value of
the Associations picture-lessons
as First Aid to Parents" in pre-
senting ideals of right living to
their boys and girls.
Entirely new are luncheon sets
of mulberry colored glass with

Italian linen table runners and
doilies in the same rich hue are

of deep ecru and even white are
often employed.
Flexible mohairs in brilliant
block prints, stripes, or in plain
colors are used for furniture COW
ering and window draperies. The
patterned fabric is gay with con-
ventionalized flowers and birds,

becomes such an amazing and
elaborate business. Stockings, for
instance! They used to be just

THE HERMIT THRUSH

It's hard to count what an air can do;
1t cannot buy one shirt or shoe;
1t cannot bind neat nest; find things
For leaving the earth on floating
wings;
Nothing of twigs in it, nothing of
roots;
But something of rivers, little Of
That I've heard ripping a bodiless
tune
That caught me up in small balloon,
And took me high without writing a
check;
And let me down without breaking my
neck
No effort at all: I was absent-minded:
Don't even know now what the air or
the wind did.
