'UNKNOWN
Dear lad, symbolical of all
Who died with you that we might live
Because you answered duty's call, .
Accept the love that we would give.
The angels took your name away
And now we call you our Unknown
A wondrous thought, for so we say
That, each may claim you for his own.
A prince's coat you may have worn,
Or rags have dressed you in the past;
Perhaps you were an alien-born,
Though All-American at last.
Your blood has quenched along its course
The fires of hate, and who can tell,
But that pure stream, with gathering force,
May some day quench the fires of hell!
From fields with Flanders poppies red,
You're coming back, no more to roam,
And with our martyred make your bed.
In daisy-sprinkled fields of home.
Celery prown in the Lake La
hish district is in great demand
In the east, according to a local
wholesale fruit man. So much
so that so far this season there
has ben shipped to eastern points
five carloads grown from that
district.
From Omahai Kansas City and
the central states there is a grow
ing demand for the Lake Labish
celery. In fact, already this sea
son h has received orders for 15
cars jof the Oregon product and
is of the opinion that hereafter
there! will be a steady demand.
Reports are that the east pre
fers the Oregon celery, due to
its having a flavor much pre
ferred to the California product.
Thisffruit man predicts a great
futurjs for Lake Labhsh celery.

That the finished product of farm
and cattle range costs the con
sumer more than twice as much
as the farmer or cattle grower
i,ets for his product, was discussed
today at a conference held under
the auspices of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States.
The figures were supplied by J.
N. Van De Vries, Chicago, gene
ral western manager of the cham
ber. He said statistics gathered
by the chamber showed that the
farmer and livestock raiser re
ceived about 37 per cent of the !
amount the consumer paid for
farm products.
I'ack.T TrIN Views
Thomas E. Wilson, Chicago
packer, said that 89 per cent of
the amount the packers received
for all meat products went to the
livestock raiser, leaving a gross
margin of profit of 1 1 per cent to
th? packers.
Vernon Campbell" of San Jose,
Cal., who was active in building
co-operative marketing organiza
tions anions fruit growers of the
PaeKio coast, discussed retailing
and jobbing problems.
Grocers' Status Told
"Ten years ago, ' he said, "we
had one grocery store for every
thousand consumers. Now sta
tistics show we have one grocery
store for every 2 ."JO DeoDle. It
makes necessary either much
more efficient methods must be
practiced by the retail grocer, or
he must make a larger margin of
profit, if he 13 to survive."
He paid the experience of the
fruit growers had been that much
unnecessary cost of distribution
was due to the fact that jobbing
centers were too few and too
wMely scattered.- He suggested
that greater diffusion of whole
sale 1 establishments, dealing di
rect with ths retailer, would elim
inate much unnecessary jobbing
cost.
Solution Desired
Mr. Van De Vries said that the
conference was making an hon
est effort to find out some' of the
things that are wrong with the
present system of distribution
with a view to eliminating un
necessary costs and improving the
system.

When Ni'. tiiu Satco and Bartholomeo Venzettt. two Communists charged with murder, were given a
hearing in Dedhans. Mass.. where they -re seeking a new trial, the "riot squad" of the Boston Police De
partment was placed on guard to watch the building and to see that no disturbances took place. Both
men were charged and convicted on June 14 last of the shooting and killing of Frederick Parmenter,
a shoe factory paymaster, and Alesandre Berardelli, a guard, when they were robbed of J1S.000. They are
said to be responsible tor the attempt to bomb the United States Embassy in Paris and numerous other
Communists' demonstrations. The "Italian Proletariat" will never tolerate the execution of Sacco and Ven
zetti, unless the Italian Foreign Office "exhausts every means to prevent it; according to an ultimatum
presented to Foreign Minister Delia Torrttta in Rome. Threats have been made ui Rome over the two
Communists.

Hal D. Patton calls attention
to the fact and also points with
pride, to the fact that since he
and Edward Schunke and Joseph
Baumgartner were appointed as a
special committee for the city
council to look into delinquent
taxes, many who were in arrears
have been paying up.
The committee instructed the
city treasurer to issue certificates
of delinquency on assessments in
arrears. These certificates when
issued draw 12 percent interest,
Mr. Patton said, and may be pur
chased by anyone.
In many instances where prop
erty owners have been unable to
pay taxes assessed for improve
ments, all in one payment, the
council has been liberal and per
mitted owners to bond. By this
means, a heavy improvement tax
against a property may be paid
in 10 annual installments.
By issuing certificates of delin
quency and bringing suit, the city
is now owner of several dots in
Oaks addition, and will probably
foreclose on others.
It is probable that some action
will be taken on delinquent taxes
on property on South Twejfth
Btreet. As soon as a number of
certificates of delinquency have
been issued, and the property ac
quired by the city, it is probable
that the city will hold a sale of
such property.
In the- meantime, where prop
erty is delinquent in taxes, a cer
tificate of delinquency may be is
sued to anyone who asks for the
certificate and who pays the am
ount due. Then with this certi
ficate of delinquency foreclosure
proceedings may be Instituted.
A smokestack 13 5 feet high
will be erected at Chemawa for
the heating plant which will be
built early in the year. The con
tract for the heating plant was
awarded to S. A. Hughes of this
citty, but the department for the
interior, Indian affairs, awarded
the contract for building the stack
to the Alphonse Castodis company
of New York.
The smokestack will be the first
of the kind in the west in material
of construction radial brick.
While Mr. Hughes did not get the
contract for erecting it, h& was
given a contract by the Alphonse
Castodis company for excavations
and laying the foundation for the
smokestack.
This foundation will be 20 feet
square and constructed of con
crete. Mr. Hughes will be paid
947.50 for the foundation and ex
cavation work.
The Epworth league of the
First Methodist church and the

Commencing Sunday, November

the league rooms of each church.
During this week the young
people of the organization will
make a special effort to bring stu
dents of the university and the

young people, irrespective of their
church affiliations, are invited to
