Belasco-" After Love-?'

after Love- is the title of \. F..
Thomas new play, in which Henry
Miller and cast of IA broadway
players will appear at the Shubert-
Belasco Theater next week. The
arterial theme of this play is said
to resolve itself into one philosophi-
cal conclusion-that there is no sin
that is not shared. AS Francois
Laurent, Henry Miller plays the part
of a historical writer whose great
capacity to love and forgive makes
him share all of the indiscretions and
sins of those who surround his life.
Marjorie Wood, who appeared with
Henry Miller in The Man in Eve
ming Clothes" takes contrasting
part. Miss Wood is considered one
of the most versatile of English
actresses.

Just an Apple Story


HERE'S a story to make you feel proud
L L of your state:
In the fall of 1924 j. MacPhee Ferguson,
of Yakima, harvested his Winesap apple
crop. Some of the choice apples he
wrapped in oiled paper and placed in cold
storage. Some weeks ago they were taken
out of storage, sent TO tidewater in refrlg-
orator cars and shipped to Glasgow, Scot
land.
Canny as the Scots are, they paid for
the Yakima apples Just four times what
they were paying for Portuguese apples,
and considerably more than they were
paying for Australian apples on the same
market
These Washington apples, mind you,
were year old. They had been shipped
5000 miles.
"In competition with South European
fruit from Portugal and elsewhere they
caused amazement and CONSERVATION. The
buyers could hardly believe their eyes"
Mr.. Ferguson's Glasgow correspondent
wrote him. That was the word from Glas-
gov TO the Fruit Export corporation,
Alaska building, Seattle.
In some places around this country they
try to tell you we can't grow apples out
here.
Don't you believe it-and for heavens
sake don't ever try to make Glasgow
believe it.

Hon. Good the Rain Feels

LOW good the rain felt yesterday! Not
/ L real Seattle downpour; just gentle
mist. And how fine everything smelled
after it-clean and earthly.
Down by the docks steamers poked their
noses thru the gray mist, footing mourn
fully. Across the bay Alla doomed like an
impressionistic picture. Streets glstened
and auto tires rolled over them with
kissing nnrr.
Girls in summer frocks scurried along
with umbrellas. Others donned yellow
slickers Men hunched into raincoat col
lars.
And at home the living room fireplace
glows cheerfully again after a summer
shutdown. An evening at home with slip
pers and good book passes the time
pleasantly.
Other cities chide us for our rain. Let
them chide. We like it.

Keep Your Liberty Bonds

'DEADERS of The Seattle Star often ask
IN if it is good policy to hold onto their
Liberty bonds.
There is no sounder investment at the
profit possible. These bonds are at par
or better, and the United States govern
ment is the most reliable financial insti-
tuition on earth. To be sure, Wall Street
may gamble these bonds to market price
below par, but to sell, at any time, at less
than par would be foolish. A decrease in
the market value can be temporary only,
since every bank in the country is decid-
eddy interested in their actual value, which
rs always par or more.
Liberty bonds and other government
securities are nothing like get-rich-quck
investment, unless you have millions in
them and can take advantage of small
changes in their market value. If any of
the readers have such millions, it is
because they have escaped the attention
of the bankers.
