More than 100 tents are housing workmen in this city as a result of the home shortage and despite the large number of residences and apartment-houses being completed here the number of tent homes continues to grow rather than be decreased. At the Grays Harbor motorshlp yard a village of 50 tents has been built by the company to house 100 of its bachelor workers. At the Grant Smith Porter yards about 50 tents are in use. Most of the tents are occupied by two single men each. In a few of the privately owned ones families are living. With a new cooperage plant and a big ship engine works both to start here within the next 60 days, the home shortage promises to continue. Accommodations for 70 families will be finisned here next month, but these will go only a short way towards meeting the need. Aberdeen's phenomenal growth has been largely due to her shipyards, which now employ about 2700 men with an average daily payroll of close to 120,000. House-building activities and the general business boom has brought hun dreds of workers, merchants, clerks and others into the city. Despite the growth, labor continues scarce, with the demand for workers of almost all kinds exceeding .the supply. 9 hanalian Goes .'Over, the Top and Routs the Prof iteers Shanah'an's policy of selling: merchandise of quality at a small profit has caused dismay amongrst the profiteers.

Extracts follow: "First of all. the visitors were taken to Mewata Park, where they were wel comed and given the liberty of the city by Mayor Costello. Hundreds of Cal garians were present, and the soldier lads were, taken to homes, for auto rides, and everything possible was done to amuse them,, until 11 o'clock, when they prepared, to parade. . . . "The parade was wonderfully inspir ing and thousands of people cheered the visitors and the returned heroes who marched with them to a standstill.
