McArthur, takes charge, the undersigued having given possession July 3. Publishing the Herald the past 18 months has been both profitable and a pleasure and we decided to sell only because the heavy increase of the business at our down town office made it impossible to give the necessary time to this business. We feel justly proud of having built the Herald from a finan cial wreck to a paying institution in such a short time, and for this suc cess we wish to thank the business men who patronized the paper and job department. We are glad to be able to turn the Herald over to the capable management of Mr. McArthur, a vet eran newspaper man who has 16 years of success as a publisher in eastern Washington to his credit. We trust the Mt. Scott district will accord him its most loyal support. MR. A MRS. J. E. UPDIKE. In assuming the proprietorship and publication of the Mt. Scott Her- aid, the writer makes no rash prom- ises, further than an earnest endeavor to continue this publication up to its present high standard as a community newspaper. From the fact that the two very capable men of long exper ience, who have in the past helped my predecessor will be retained, is my very excellent reason for believing that we can make the promise good. We refer to H. G. Guild, who has so ably filled the field of local editor of the Herald, and C. W. Smith in charge as business manager and generalissimo of the mechanical de- partmenL Having known both of these gentlemen personally for many years we “Know whereof we speak.” The only hope of making the Herald a bigger and better newspaper is that the writer will also give his en tire time and attention in assisting these two gentlemen mentioned to the best of his ability, a condition which Mr. Updike was unable to meet, on account of other important busi ness connections. Climatic conditions, social environ ments and the pleasure of living a land with a future, impelled us locate in this veritable garden Eden. The size and volume of news fur- nished each week will, to a great de gree, depend on the co-operation of our patrons. The watchword of the Herald will be a “Square deal to All.” Undor present management, the readers of the Herald are assured that the policy of this newspaper will not be dominated by a:ty creed, clique or corporation. With a minimum overhead expense in conducting the mechanical depart ment, and an excellently equipped printing plffnt, the Herald is prepared to Cur.i out the better class of print ing, minus the present profiteering prices of some of our competitors, and trust our patrons will govern them selves accordingly. Again, praying for a continuation of the generous patronage bestowed the Herald in the past, I am, most sincerely, GEO. A. McARTHUR. MICKIE SAYS AFTER.WAR THOUGHT» Australia feel* that an Improved intercontinental acquaintance la on« of the results on the credit side of the war. The Gladstone Observer, not forgetting Gallipoli's sacrifice, calls the Anxace “a magnificent ad vertisement” destined to attract th« long-desired desirable Immigrants whom iguorauce of Australia, as the domain has always felt, must hereto fore have held back. Undoubtedly It does take a war to Introduce mil lions of men to each other on foreign soil, but moot nations must feel that Ignore uce, compared with such a price, is Indeed bllsa, says New York Post. Yet as cards of Introduction $00,000 Anises were unsurpassed and should draw the tide of population to ward the antipodes. It Is many years since Sir Joseph Barrington's gloomy description of his country.

If the children of the central pow- ers survive In vitality to any extent. It will be largely due to the relief sent from America. Thus we are carrying out our Ideals by feeding the children of our enemies, a duty of common humanity, but one which might not be regarded by all nations, possibly not by the very Teutons we are now relieving, to whose character istic mind Ideals do not appeal, says Baltimore American. Still. It will nev er be a source of regret that we came to the help of the helple«a little ones, who In their generation may by mem ories of this relief be turned from the hate of their fathers to stanch friends. Concurrent with predictions of an Increase In the cost of woman’s cloth ing is a revival of activity among wom en In sewing. The coat of living la entirely within the hands of women to regulate, as profiteers may learn to their sorrow. The report of typhoid fever In the army of one to every 3,576 men shows the virtual victory over what has al ways been regarded as an army scourge, and registers another triumph of medical science In this miracle- working age. We haven’t loat faith In humanity, but we know pretty well when we hear a politician bawling about the “rule of the people" be is more con- cemed about the Job he Is running for than the people who pay the salary. A Russian barytone has been held to be an undesirable. There are some native aingers who might also qualify In that class. "Whisky will soon be a dream,” de clares a Louisville distiller.

The family sock as a banking Insti tution Is going out of fashion. Bank ers everywhere report a big Increase In recent years in the number of persons who carry accounts and ’’pay by check.” One reason, of course. Is that the average man handles much than he did a gener more money atfon ago. says Detroit Times. An- other I* that the banking business ha* made Itself of greatly Improved con- venlence to the public. Most folk have come to know not only that the family wealth Is safer behind a time-clock than under a loose board In the pantry floor, but also a bank account Is in It self an intrinsic asset.

It would be looked on by the Germans as a virtual triumph to regain the captured vessels, nullify her fame in carrying the American forces to Europe and blot out the hu miliation the German nation suffered In her case.

In the United Slates There are several good local mill tary schools in the different |»arts oi Japan where young men are train,“« and prepared fur admission to the mil Itary academy. This year the author itles of the military academy decided to accept 221 men out of the tola number of applicants by lowering somewhat the standard of admission However, out of the 221 men who suc cessfully passed the examination. 104 gave up their admission to the mill- tarywacademy for the reason that they had obtained admission to other In- stltutlons of learning which would lit them for civil careers, The Instltu tlons for higher education In Japan are so crowded that many young men are denied admission. A woman aviator flew from Paris to Morocco lately, covering a distance of 1,150 miles In two days.
