Writes From Seattle, Washington
Following is an extract of let
ter written the forepart of Septem-
Der from Seattle, Wash, by J.. r.
Dougan to his sister Mrs. f. e. Will
liams and other relatives at Penns-
vile. Mr.. Dougan who had been in
Columbus. O., is visiting his chill
dren in the western states:
1t is six weeks since came to
Seattle. I am having a very pleas
ant time here at Marion's. Ruth and
Andrew have gone to southern Ore
gon where Andrew has work in
lumber camp, on a saw mill. Ruth
has baby four and half months
old. Her husband, a likeable fell
low, was foreman in one of the CCC
camps which ceased to function last
winter. Since coming here I have
not gone about a great deal, other
than over at. the beach for three
weeks, and one day drove to the
capital at Olympia 70 miles distant,
and to Bellingham one day with
Ruth and Marion, to see Lucille. 1t
is very beautiful spot in the foot
hills of the mountains, and only
about 80 miles from Canada
nave ndQ tWC letters ITOm Augusta
since I came to Marion's. I am
planning to go there before long.
If I do, l will call on DR.. Stanley's.
Augusta said that Stanley and his
brother-in-law were up to the state
fair two days and were at her
home Marion has bought new
car, so the trip to California is set
tied. He plans to start about Oct.
10, and be on the road three days.
1t is further than from Penns-
Vile to Kansas-or nearly 1000
miles. 1t is over the Columbia river
highway which is claimed by tour
lists to be the great boulevard of
the entire country. I called on Mrs.
Eva Thompson Wallace who lives
in Edmonds, Wash, about IS miles
from Seattle, on five acre ranch, a
very beautiful place, almost sur
rounded by flowers and with well
kept lawn-with good view of
Puget sound. They also own a ten
room house and beautiful lawn in
Seattle, near the university, where
they lived 23 years; have been liv-
ing at Edmonds seven years.

Besides being printed In school

Only a small part of the fund

entangled in the electric lines the
electricity travels down the kite

also travel along wet string. When
the powerful current reaches the
body, death by electrocution often
results. Again, the kite frequently
plays the role of mischief-maker
when it falls ON wires near a pole
and flutters tantalizingly above the
boy who made it. 1t looks like a
simple matter to climb the pole
and dislodge the kite. The boy
forgets that the slightest touch of
his hand to the electric wires may
hurl him to the ground a lost kite
flyer.
The Safety Council suggests the
following rules for safety in kite
flying:
1. Never use a kite with metal
ribs, tlnSol tails, or wire kite
string. Remeber that metal con-
ducts electricity.
2. Never climb poles or trees
to knock down entangled kites.
3. Never run across streets or

Thief Sends Owner Check

sixts, has a new faith in human
honesty.
An unidentified thief recently
broke into his home and stole two
stock certificates, each for 100
shares of stock. Just one week
later Schawl received a letter from
the unidentified thief who, 1t de-
veloped, had a conscience. With the
letter was a check for $2,1O0.
The note told Schawl that the
writer had sold the stock to an
Akron brokerage firm. But the
thief apparently had succumbed
to his conscience and had sent the
check to the owner.
