WHITE KING SALMON
 ARE TURNED ID RED

Evidently some of the buyers on Puget Sound are not educated to the point they are in Ketchikan, judging from a trick played upon one by troller, says the Ketchikan Chronicle. The fish buyers here can tell whether 3 fish is seine caught, trap caught, troll, how long it has been out of water and in which district it was caught. The article in The Fisherman says.
 "A Neah Bay fish buyer one morning not long ago discovered that he had some decidedly cur rious fish among the large red kings he had bought the evening before. Examination showed them to be white kings which had been "doctored."
 "Now, it is not at all unusual for white kings to be colored when they are being kippered, but it is extraordinary at the receiving scows. It appears that some troll Ter, having a considerable catch of white kings, dressed the fish and then colored the cut surfaces with mercurochrome or some other red dye. Delivered at the receiving station after dusk, the fish were bought as red kings, and the paint r-fisherman gained seven cents 9 pound by reason of his handiwork
 "On hearing of the incident, one Seattle fish man remarked that he was not surprised, as he had heard

of a fish buyer who said that he graded very carefully between white and red fish. To prove the keen ness of his judgment, he pointed to his two piles of fish-one pile was all salmon and the other halibut."

BILL JONES NEEDS MORE INCOME

Winter is approaching and the childrens school expense will be higher this year than last. Bill looks forward to less income in the regular way. Many industries have shifted to the "zigzag" plan for their employees in an effort to help everyone thru the winter. This means that each employee will have about half as much in come. Prices of clothing and food have come down some, but not in keeping with the "zigzag' income. There will be just as much coal to buy and rent to pay. Bill must buy and rent to pay. Bill must have more monty than he can expect from his usual sources.
 He has some money in the sav- ings bank drawing 3 per cent in terest. While it is true that money was put there for a rainy day" it isn't bringing him any income worth mentioning; and $20 or $40 or even $100 of that wouldn't go very far on rainy day" He needs more money coming in.
 Bill Jones is the average Amer ican. He knows that many a man in exactly his financial condition has invested part of his money and has made enough return to give him the added income he needed. But Bill knows there is some speculation with every in vestnent, no matter what it is or how good it sounds.
 He doesn't know whether he should take any chances on either his savings account or his present income. Of course his savings ac- : count is not absolutely safe; he realizes more money has been lost by depositors thru bank failures during the last 10 years than thru any single line of investment other than the stock market crash in 1929. Being a true American ana realizing that nothing risked, nothing gained" he likes to take a chance Bill is a cautious fel- low and wants to speculate, but he doesn't want to lose his money.
 So he losses aside all the wild eyed" promises and impractical guarantees that flood the mails yand seeks out chance to Specu- late with the safety of flowing oil well to fall back on if the we'll he bets on turns out to be dry. If the new we'll comes in big, Bill should make profit of 10 times his investment If he doesn't he still has his money where it should pay him dividends, over a period of years, twenty times larger than the savings bank interest And he has the speculative chance of making a real fortune if the new well comes in good. He wants to speculate with his fingers crossed, as it were, and that is exactly what he does when he accepts our spe- cial Pool offer, and shares in one gusher while we drill for another.
 Write us for full information, but better still-mail us $20, $100, or even $2OO, and share in our next dividend. If you are like Bill Jones, we might help you. B. M. ThOmassOn & Co.,. Inc.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July 49,
Kid Chocolate, 24-year-old Cuban
Negro, and one of the finest boxers
seen in the American ring during
the last decade, today held the
worlds junior lightweight cham
pionship, and stood out as strong
candidate for two more important
titles-the featherWeight and light
weight.
The dapper little Cuban boxing
master, who was born Eligio Sar-
dinias, climaxed a career of 173
bouts at Baker Field Wednesday
night with a seVen-round technical
knockout over Benny Bass of Phila-
delphia to win the 130-pound cham
pionship Of the world
Bass, who had engaged in more
than 100 bouts during the last eight
years against the best men in the
featherweight and lightweight class
never had been stopped before. He
won his title in December, 1928, by
a tWo-round knockout of Tod Nor
gan of California and previously
had held the worlds featherweight
championship.
Outclased frsom a boxing stand
point, Bass attempted to slug it out
with the Cuban at close range, but
Chocolate surprised ring critics by
actually outslugging the heavy hit
ting Philadelphia.
Chocolate failed to score an actual
knockdown, but he had the cham
pion virtually out on his feet when
Referee Leo Hacuk stepped in and
stopped the bout.
