Exemption for Three Months Al
lowed Employers and Employes
as Surplus Is Now Sufficient.
SAVING; TO BE $600,000
Order, Coming at Time When Re
sources Are Needed, to Mean
Much to' Businesses Affected.
Balem. March 2J. Notice was issiild
today by the tate industrial accident
commission that employers and . em
ployes operating- under the workmen's
compensation law, who meet require
ments provided by the law win be ex-
r nation- fund for the months of April,
May and June. ,
-It Is estimated by Chairman Allen of
fw "he accident commission that this ex
emption will relieve employers ana era
, ployes from payments which would have
totaled more than $800,000. It Is pointed
out that this exemption, eomltig at a
. time when , resources are needed for the
revival of industries, will mean a great
deal to the firms affected. c -
- Exemptions were also allowed for Jan
nary -and March of this-year. v?
7MThisis the first time since the com
peneatlon law, became effective that-an
exemptions covering more than a single
month at one time has been, declared by
the commission, and Is made possible
- because of the surplus that has accumu
lated in the Industrial accident fund
: during the past year, this surplus being
: sufficient to meet all expenses and sti-
. mated awards to be mads by the com
. mission during the three month period
for which the exemptions have been
: declared." said Chairman Allen. "It is
. notable- in this connection that the ad-
minlBtrative expense of the commission,
since the date the law became effective,
has been but 6.17 per cent of .the re-
oeipts. alt other money coming- into the
: fund being- available for the payment of
claims to injured workmen.
. "The : last legislature, at tne sugges
tion of the commission, changed the sys
tem of exemptions and, after the begin
ning of thevnew fiscal year, July 1. 1919,
no. further monthly exemptions , will be
declared. In lieu thereof, any accumu
lated: surplus will be credited annually
ViM the contributors, each being given
credit for the proportion bis payments
daring the year bear to the entire
amounUAThls will work out more equit
ably to i those employers who did not
have' continuous payrolls, and who were
therefore not in a position to receive
ereditxuhder the monthly exemption

Flasks for the FisU
- Marshfield, March 89. One hundred
pints of first grade whiskey which was
en route - from San : Francisco to Coos
Bay was thrown . overboard : from the
steamer City of Topeka by Captain Hall
and his chief officer. It is said that the
whiskey .was found concealed behind a
pile of pans in the galley. When the
officer made the discovery the liquor
was promptly thrown into the sea. It Is
supposed that the whiskey belonged to
some member of the crew, who hoped to
secure a large price for it in the Coos
Bay cities, but no one" claimed it. Cap
tain Hall has been making a practice of
searching his vessel before reaching port
to avoid any possible trouble in case
the local officers should find liquor

Piano
A poor piano has no musical quality of
tone. This lack of tone quality is a seri
ous menace to the "ear." Also in a poor
piano the action is hard and irregular and
the fingers and hands are improperly
trained. Therefore, if you intend to have
your children learn to play, provide them
with a good Piano. Consider quality
and not cheapness. A good, reliable
dealer has good Pianos at moderate "(not
