Old time workers UBed to take a
lot of pride In their ability to turn
off a good output. Farm laborers
would bra about the aomunt they
could mow in a day. The man who
could not keep up with the others
In hoeing a field of corn, was look
ed down upon In his Kane Shop
workers used to bran about tho day's
work they could turn out, and make
conspicuous records of the same on
the walls olf tholr workshops. Of
late there has seemed but little of
this spirit. Business mon complain
bitterly that It is hard to Ret people
to work with any energy. Some
folks seem to fear that If they take
hold with any pep, they will work
themselves out of a job. There Is
a world wldo fooling of letting; down
after the war, and It seems to take
the ambition out of a lot of people.
They know that labor la short. They
think they are sure of their Jobs
even Of they do work In an 'Indolent
manner. A good Idea for renewing
the spirit of emulation. Is being
worked out by the Maltimora and
Ohio rallorad. They publish month
ly tho car movement on all tholr
divisions, with figures showing In-
crease or decrease. It Is the policy
of tho management to encourage the
spirit of emulation and competition
"Make It a mile a day more this
month," Is tho motto that Is being
passed around tho system. Thn If
a splendid Idea that everyone ninv
apply to his own business. The man
who Is going to succeed In life. Is
the one who watches his production
Ho Is nmbltlotis to do moro and bet
ter work. That kind of worker U
the kind that attracts attontlou from
higher up, and the one who Is picked
for promotion when vacancies open
up
KKIl'f'Kl) FARM I'ltOIWCTHtX
Farmers all over the country are
saying that they can not : ttenipt to
raise as largo crops as formerly. Tho
farm help la so scarce and cost so
mucn, that many (farmers will not
plant more than they nnS tholr fam
ilies can cure for. While tho de
mand tw food fron. Ruropn will
fall off somewhat, yet the country
will he lucky under tho present con
ditions, tr there is enough for home
use. This condition is tho result
of the wave of extravagance and
Inflation that has drawn workers
off tho farms Inlo the cities. Keep
up tho war gnrdonB. Vegetables
will he scarcer than ever, and a few
rows of benns and potatoes will look
mighty good next September. The
business community should assist
tho farmers In getting all the help
possible. A nation wide drive should
be made to enlist farm workers.
The longer one lives with Print
ers' Ink. tho more he feels that
printing Is a wonderful art. It Is
built on the solid foundation of a
mechanical craft, with certain pro
cesses and Information and stand
ards resulting from ages of experi
ence. And In design and expression
It has all the grace nnd force of
tho fine arts. The printer with the
true craftsman's spirit, gives his
product superior vnlue to the user
If a "lob" has a rlenn and neat tv
pogranhlrat appearnnce. It makes
stationery or announcements look

It Is set up from handsome and ar
tistic tyie. It seems to Jand for

arranged with proper emphasis and
display, such as credited by the
News-Review lob printing depart
ment, the printed message makes n
elesrer Impression and speaks with
more convincing power.

HARD TO l-"IM JlltY

In the circuit court this morning
ill Interest centered In the trial of
Martin A. Clark, charged with the
murder of Charles I.. Taylor at Mc
Kenxle Bridge last July. It becomes
more and more apparent that the se
lection of a Jury for the case will
be a long, tedious process, says the

read all the details of the case or
llscussed It with his neighbors, or
were present at tho former trial, and

llsbar him from the case. It i
thought by some that the entire week
may be consumed in the effort to

Low of Supply and
. Demand Blocked
A. K. Mark, of Spokane, has asked
Senator McNary the answer to a very
InteresiliiE question. He wants to
knuw the ,aw of Bupply de-
maud works to send the prices up,
I why does it not work lo send theiii
I down again?" That is what a lot of
I people would l'ko to know, and what
Ihoy have not been aide to find on
I up to the present time, says I In
, iior,la0 Journal,
v,. M,k lo traveller salesman
n business takes hi in through
, ..cow country." He noticed the
Montuna plttill8 ,i0ttud here and

IllH hidH W(.re not savell in vi(.w o(
,n h(Kn coat of father and shoes
Thrt aswer wus that leather was
- hi(,, ollly ln one place where the
consumer came to buy it ; that hides
!W(.,B go ow prce that "it did not
pily to monkey with them." Leatliei
salesmen, fellow travelers, told Mr
Mark that in spite ot a slackened de-
,,.,id nnd few sales, thev had been
notiiled of an increase in price of
fmlr c01)ts a pound effective the first
of tho current month
Now word comes from Washington
that largo accumulations of hides
have been shown by government in
vestigation; thatpioduction of shoes
bus- been halted to check reduction In
-tail prices; that retail dealers are
holding back their orders for hu
priced shoes and that manufacturers
lmve an oversupply of stock on hand
Yet prices stay up with no appar
ent inclination of coming dowg
With hides rotting in the field be
cause it "does not pay to monkey
with them;" with the leather stock
so lurge that th? tanners are idle In
many instances: wllh Ihe niiinufac-
Hirers overloaded with finished
stocks, why does not tho law of sup-
ply and demand . bring the prices
down? That is what Mr. Mark wants
t know, and all of us. Senator Mc
Nnrv Is about to investiirate the nult-
ter. Kverybody except those directlj
concerned, will welcome the investl
cation. But after the investigation
then what? Will there he a rem-dv
for the unjust burden our feet force
unon our nocketbooks?
j Kverybody would be glad if Sena
tor McNary would answer llicm
at the ame time he answers Mr.
Mark about the peculiar way in
which the law of supply and demand
seems inclined to function.

Merchants Consider
Important Matters
At the next meeting of the mer
chants' association, a report will be
made by tho committee appointed to
present the proposition of holdiiiK
the Tenth Annual Carnival, which
was to come before the American
Lesion and firemen. A report will
rlso be made from the committee on
the opening and maintaining of the
auto camp grounds. This committer
has been working on this and finds
ao possible chance of enlarging the
prewnt grounds, and are of .the
opinion that they will have to recom
mend thnt some arrangement be
made whereby the fairgrounds may
be used as an overflow auto camp

Captain Gns Westerdale, master of
the trawler, his crew of thirteen and
a aingle passenger barely had time
to launch a single lifeboat when the
giant trawler plunged beneath the
heavy combers.
Those who were rescued, but not
until after they had battled for more
than seven hours in the slyglan
blackness of the night, every minute
of which titanic combers threatened
to capsize their sixteen-foot lifebc- t,

heavily under the hammering of the
giant ground swells until about
10:20 o'clock Saturday night,
that hour Fireman P. H. Coyne re
ported to Captain Westordale that
water was pouring Into the forward
hold. Within ten minutes from the
time Coyne reported the Ituna tak
ing water, the trawler plunged to
the bottom of the sea.
Hastily arousing tho sleeping
members of the crew and Chase.
Captain Westerdale ordered the life
boats lowered. One lifeboat was
launched with great difficulty. Even
while Chase and members of the
crew were scrambling aboard the
lifeboat, the Ituna suddenly plunged,
quivered a few moments, and then
sank from sight.
The last man to board the life
boat. Steward Kelly, leaped just as
the Ituna began hor last plunge,
and landed heavily ln the lifeboat,
spraining his ankle.
Then began a terrible fight for
life. The lifeboat, loaded to capac

much water from the gale-swept
combers that the castaways were
compelled to ball for their lives.
