Skilled Labor in Lumber Industry Is
 Best Paid in the World

OLYMPIA, Mar. 3.-Skilled labor in the lumber mills of Oregon and Washington receive the highest aver age hourly pay of any such workmen in the world according to figures re- ceived in the state department of la bor all industries from the United States bureau of labor statistics.

ADA BLACKJAl;;K
 WAS NJ iIER0INE
 SAYS HA20LD NOICE:

NEW YORK, Mar. 3.-The robes of a heroine have been stripped from the shoulders of Ada Blackjack, Eski- mo woman. N&
 From the Arctic a few months ago came a romantic story of three white men who died on Wrangell Island, ana the devotion of the survivor, an Eski- mo woman, named Ada Blackjack, who was alleged to have succored them.
 Noice tells a different story now. Ada Blackjack, he says, is not the he roine he first believed, but rather she played a role of selfshness and the rude dairy kept by the Eskimo woman recently deciphered by Noice shows that Ada refused to aid E. Lorne Knight, leader of the party, as he lay dying and saved her own life on food that would have saved Knight.
 Since the chief need was warm cloth ing the woman was taken with the party to make fur garments. But the woman, whose husband had died, was determined to marry one of the white men.
 At first there were plenty of polar bears but the second winter brought famine. Knight and Crawford start ed dash toward Siberia only to en- counter bitter weather and were fore ed to turn back. A short time later Crawford, Galle and Maurer made an- other attempt to reach Siberia and were never heard of again.
 Knight lay in his tent almost who'll ly dependent on the Eskimo woman for his food. Entries in his dairy told of the woman refusing to visit the traps which were set rear the tent and of her washing her hair and nal1- ing bread for herself when Knight asked her to hunt for game.
 Her own dairy toll Of Knight ask ing her to visit the traps, '( said nothing because had nothing to say t. him." the woman wrote.
 When the rescue party reached the island Knights emacIated body was found in his tent. hTe woman was fat and we'll fe1

WOMEN SAY COMPETITIVE
 RIFLE SHOOTING IS WRONG

SAN FRANCISCO, Mar. 3.-Actlng on the theory that women should not engage in competitive rifle shooting matches while the men folks are strl- wing to bring about peace through dis armament and otherwise, the girls of Pomona college, California, have call ed off their shooting match with the Montana girls, it was announced to- day by the headquarters of the Ninth corps area. The shoot was to have been sponsored by the war depart ment.
 "The women of Pomona feel that Tn receiving arms and ammunition free from the government we are sanction ing armament" said Miss Lucy Stoles- bury, the Pomona rifle manager. We see no connection between the arma- ment program and the use of arms by women" Miss Mohrman, another rifle shot replied "Men will not use guns less even if women give them up."

FORBES ACCUSED OF USING SECRET
 CODE IN DEALS

CHICAGO, Mar. 3.-A secret code used by contractors agents in commu- nicating with former Director Forbes of the veterans bureau was to be brought to the attention of the federal grand jury when it closed it's investi gations last week.
 Merle L. Sweet, private secretary to Forbes during the latter's term in the bureau was expected to follow his wife on the witness stand to tell of the code and it's method of operation. Mrs. Sweet who was examined for several hours Friday was excused after furn- ishing damaging testimony.
 According to Elias H. Mortimer who acted as Washington agent for several construction firms in negotiations with veterans bureau contracts he was fur nished a copy of secret code by MT. Forbes in June, 1922, when he was ne gotiating with Forbes and staff for hos pital contracts. Mortimer's testimony was given before the senate commit tee which spent nine months investi- gating the administration of Forbes,

WYOMING RANCHER AWAKE
 TO BEAUTIES OF HIS HOME

CHICAGO, Mar. 3.-Not until the picture of his products stood before him on canvas in all the color of it's native surroundings, was a veteran cowman and rancher of Wyoming brot to appreciate the beauty of the home and soil which nursed his industry.
 For years this rancher has come to Chicago, usually with carloads of cat tie for market. The stock yards he un- derstood, but not the large buildings on Michigan avenue guarded by huge bronze lions. He learned it was the Chicago Art studio, and it being a rec day with time hanging heavily on him, he entered. How he came upon a painting of a COW and was amazed to find wonderful likeness. It touched ground upon which he was familiar, and he inquired for the galleries hay ing the paintings of ranch and farm themes
 When this rancher went back home he began to perceive interesting .hings about him that he had never noticed before There was color in everything. The alfalfa patch of blue green, the golden yellow of the straw stubbles, the tender green of the oats, the shifting light of cloud shadows on the meadows the bristling coats of his animals all began to reveal their beauty to him. Most of his idle time in Chicako is now spent in the Institutes atmosphere.

FORD PRESIDENT CONFIDENT
 1924 IS BANNER YEAR

Even though 1923 exceeded all our expectations, there is every reason to believe that in 1924 business will attain to far greater proportions.
 More people will buy automobiles during the coming year than ever be- fore. Evidence of our belief in this is the extensive expansion program we are now carrying out and which is aimed to effect new manufacturing economies and materially increase production. So in the new year we will produce more cars and trucks and confidently expect to sell more of them both in the domestic and for eign fields
 There was time when figures con- jured up by statisticians to show sales possibilities, replacement require ments and such were guide posts in the industry, and when much time was devoted to discussing sales res istance. These to great extent have all served their purpose. They were a part of the educational campaign necessary not only to salesmen but to the public. They are passing out just as the phantom of saturation has disappeared from the automobile hori- ZOn.
 Today America is completely "so!d'' on the automobile.
 Women are greater influence in the automobile buying field than ever before and the coming year will see this influence considerably extended. It will be expressed particularly in the closed car sales, for it is natural for a woman to turn to this more comfor- table means of motoring.
 Women, you know, through their guardianship of the family purse, have become remarkably good judges of values and their knowledge in this re- spect now extends as much to auto mobiles as to anything else.
 While a wealthy woman may be a. ble to afford a finer car than one ot moderate means, each will exercise the same careful scrutiny of value when she comes to make selection
 It follows, therefore, that the man ufacturer who gives the greatest val ue for the lowest investment must certainly enjoy the greatest share of thebusiness. And to maintain this business he must continually incorpo rate better quality into his product fol the public is motor-wise and transpor tation value is going to count most this year.

WOMAN USES CATSUP
 BOTTLE ON MAN WHO
 KICKS ABOUT BEEFSTEAK

MT. VERNON, Wn., Mar. 3.-Al- fred Hallings of Big Lake went into the Sinnett Cafe Saturday night and ordered a beefsteak. When he was served and his knife slid over the portion served him he became angry, threw his knife and fork on the floor, and followed it with the steak, which he claimed was fit only for a door mat. Mrs. Stinnett grabbed catsup bottle and crowned Hallings, who as soon as he recovered from his injury will face fine for drunkenness. He says no more females will mix in his gustatory feats.
