Giants Victorious
Over Ephrata

The Couee City Giants gave
Ephrata the worst drubbing they
have suffered since taking up six
man football three years ago. when
the local boys emerged on The long
end of 20 to IL score last Friday
afternoon.
From the opening kickoff the Gil
ants dominated the play making
one first down after another to run
the score up to 900 in Coulee City's
favor before the county seat boys
were able to score on break and
long run. The visitors were un-
able to score again until the final
seconds of the contest when the
Giants reserves went into the game
and Ephrata scored on long run
again on the first play
Touchdowns were made for the
locals by Clarence Sullivan, Don
aid Rhodes and Jack Lewis. The
Giants functioned as smooth
working machine, with plenty Of
power, looking the best of any team
since Coulee City took up football
three seasons ago.
Tomorrow night the local boys
travel to Mason City for game
under the lights, and the following
week Quincy comes here for the
last home game of the season on
Friday afternoon

Increasing Farm Help Problem and
Approaching Election hold Attention
OLYMPIA, Oct. 21-The problem
of help for the harvesting of all
manner of crops, carrying on the
work of the dairy farms and gen
eral farm and ranch work which has
been subject of growing concern
for the past several months has
reached a more critical stage in
many parts of the state.
Word comes to the office of Co.

saving the crops.
the columns of the papers. The
Okanogan Independent tells of the
closing Of local stores and shops
in that town each second day this
week and last in order that all
clerks and owners also may help
in the apple harvest.
Greatest Number of Auction
Sales in History.
The Waterville Empire-Press tells
of meeting there with the same

situation, its cause and possible
remedy, while the Chewelah indie
pendent mentions the situation also
and says that "never in the history
of the nation has there been so
many auction sales of farm live
stock and equipment" This paper
says that the situation is the result
of lack of planning the use OF man
power, the draft and the high wages
in war industry Anyhow the people
are doing their best to meet the
situation and it's a good job, too.

State Taxes and legislative meas
ures will be greatly influenced by
the action Of the voters at the No

two weeks away now. We are about
to select a group of people to rep

otherwise, and should be very care
full to vote for the candidate who is
best qualified for the job. Also there
are the measures that SO many of
US do not take the time or trouble
to find out about and therefore do
not vote on at all. There are six of
these this time on the state ballot
and here is thumb nail sketch of
each of them. Why not clip it out
of the paper to refer to on election

If Away From Home This Is
A Suggestion
AT the primary election it was
apparent that thousands of us did
not vote BECAUSE we were away from
home on war work or others matters.
If you are mot to be at home on
November 3, write today to your
county auditor telling him of that
fact and asking for an absentee
ballot. It's as simple as that, really
less trouble. than going to the rolls,
and very important. In any event,
be sure to be good citizen and
