CHAIN LETTERs-DID YOU GET YOURS?

(From the Greater Oregon Albany, Oregon)
 Have you received chain letter Is the government going to stop it. When is ii going to die out Hove you got any money back Who started this chain letter racket anyway
 Mo- the above questions were not asked by group of children Lawyers doctors professors and business men at the Albany Chamber of Commerce meeting were the real question askers.
 The concensus of opinion seemed to be that the govern ment wasn't going stop chain letters People sending out chain letters can't be put jail because there aren't enough ais in the country to hold tenth of the people who are sending out the letters.
 Someone said: Postmaster General Jim Farley does nt chain letters mailed out because It increases the revenue of the postal department
 "Of course he doesn't care said od-time republi- can Farley probably thought up the idea It brings m more money from stamp sales than Fareys souvenir stamp sales to collectors
 A lawyer said the "brain rust was the father Of the chain letter idea Another conservative Coolidge republ can said Well if the brain trust thought up the chain let ter idea is the only thing they did think up that had any sense to it.
 "Someone will be left holding the sack It is fraud it is graft You cant give 10 cents and get ln $1565 in dmes," said pessmist.
 "Oh yeah' said clerk at the next table. Il have got ten in over S16 so far from the dime that spent
 Some bankers like chain letters and others have no ln maginaton all they want is eight per cent interest.
 school teacher said "Yes you could spend dime on letter and if you didn't get any results from the letters you you could claim you defrauded out o O cents but that hadn't ought anyone to commit suicide
 In Albany the postoffice lobby Wednesday and Thurs day looked like the day before Christmas many chain letter writers were waiting to buy stamps.
 There four kinds of chain letters making the rounds of Albany stores and residences One is 10 cents letter then there are 25 cents and S letters Some letters have three the top and eight letters must be sent out

 Some people play golf Some think it silly game Chain letter writing may be silly game yet there era thousand people in Albany playing the game and one seems to be having wonderful time

DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK? By Edson R. Waite, Shawnee, Oklahoma

It is wild flight of the imagination to suppose that the ideal of universal peace can be assured.
 To entertain such possibility it would be necessary believe that every nation be powerful weak would remain for all time satisfied with it's present position in gard to all other nations.
 Nations have risen, nations have falen nations once powerful have sunk to comparative obscurity and ohers once obscure, have increased in strength
 So surely that is the way it must ever be

WASHINGTON, July Is. The

ing will result in a decided Increase
in the use of building materials and
supplies through the third quarter
of 1888, it was announced today.
Among indications of the acceler-

dustries is the steady increase in
the volume of modernization credit

of home mortgages selected for APP

MOVEMENTS OF
PRODUCE DOWN
Shipments Decrease 5000
Cars in First Week
of July.
By Times Special

By Times Special
WASHINGTON, July 13.-Produce
shipments in the midWestern dis
trict during the initial week of July
decrease approximately 5000 cars
compared with the total of the pre-
ceding week, according to the week
ly report of the Department of Agri-
culture released here today.
The sharp drop in movements
registered during the week included
decreases of 1900 cars for potatoes
$50 for onions, TOO for MELONS and
cantaloupes, and 400 for citrus
fruits. Many other lines declined
moderately. Increases during the
week were registered in peaches
honeydews and early apples.
Persistent price declines of re-
cent weeks and extremely large local
supplies of many lines have tended
to discourage distant shipments, it
was reported. The majority OF
products during the last week
showed a decrease compared with
the same week last year.
Hot weather recently has helped
considerably the sale of melons
fruits and salad vegetables. Summer
products, including m a t o s.
cucumbers, peppers, and early fruits
are now beginning to flow from the
northernStateS. Most markets during
the last week reported moderate de-
mand for produce at fairly steady
prices, although most changes were
downward.
Determined resistance of Virginia
potato shippers to any price level
below 81 barrel in producing Sec
tons has strengthened that market
considerably and prices have been
maintaining recent gains, although
city markets have not advanced
prices quite to the level indicated
by quotations at country shipping
points. The Eastern markets, how
ever, still remain unsettled.
Tomato supplies have been in
creasing in southern districts with
the price continuing low. Shipments
during the last two weeks have been
at the rate of 200 cars daily, besides
increasing local receipts. Shipments
of peaches, coming mostly from
Georgia and the Carolinas, have
been flowing at the rate of $50 cars
daily from all sources. Prices are
weak.
