W. Woodbeck were motoring leisurely along the streets upon which the public market is situated in Seattle, when, suddenly a huge truck, on the driving seat of wiiich were .two Japanese, swung directly in front of them and a serious acci- j dent avoided only by the quick ! handling of his own car by Mr. : Edgar. Needless to say he was peeved enough at that but to make matters worse one of the Japs let Mr, Edgar and party have the full benefit of a rapid flow of Japanese language that sounded as thought it meant some thing.. ii was me last straw. Mr. Edgar jumped from the car, threw off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, saying that no Jap could talk like that to an Ameri can when he was around, and started toward the truck but the Jap, true to his inheritance, was the quicker, rolling off of that truck like a ball, he raced down the side streets and all that Mr. Edgar could see of him was soles and heels of his shoes. the State Legion Deferred Action On Japanese Action on the Japanese question was deferred by the executive com mittee of the state department of the American Legion at its meet ing in Portland yeserday accord ing ti information from headquar ters of the Salem post here this morning.

GRAND Where the Big Shows Play The Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon Great Wheat Harvest On In Union Co. La Grande, Or., Aug. 6. Union county's wheat, crop will exceed the million bushel mark instead of a total of 850,000 bushels as first estimated. The increase in bushel age becomes evident with the ar rival of wheat in the mills and warehouses. Harvesting is on in full blast, headers working every where and combines going in erme instances. Binding is pretty vcll finished. The increased total is brought about by a heavier fall wheac yield than had been anticipated, and the recent rain that added to I he spring spring wheat situation. The rain helped much of the wheal re cover from the stem maggot and what looked like almost total fail ure three weeks ago now looms up with 10 to 15 bushel prospects. This improvement in the spring wheat yield also boosted the coun ty totals. Another very encouraging lact developed at the mills and ware houses is that wheat coming la so far weighs full 60 pounds and in some instances a pound and a trac tion more than that. This in itself is a very important item. Notwithstanding the injured late spring wheat, and the sirull acreage in fall wheat, the yield is normal if a million bushels is the crop. The best yield the valley has ever given was a million and a quarter bushels, and that in a desirable year during the war when every available inch of soil was conscripted. 1 Two Cars Damaged In Minor Crashes; Drivers Uninjured Two automobiles were sli-jhtly damaged in two autonotlle acci dents winch occurred l.?r s yoiter day evening.

W FIELD Booth Tarkington s Book "Alice Adams Booth Tarkington's "Alice Ad ams" is a record of a girl's minor tragedies; the tragedy of a dance to a wall flower who was once a belle, the tragedy of a forriial din ner in her shabby home with with ering seconds for flowers, a bung ling maid hired for the occasion and a father patently unaccustom ed to a dress suit, the tragedy of brave, foolish, little deceptions to the man whom she seeks to at tract, all these, though minor In the perspective of a life of time, arc bitterly poignant to the young. Alice lives in one of the middle western cities, lately overgrown tovns, which Mr. Tarkington uses' so often for settings. Attractive,! pretty, almost beautiful, Alice is' fighting hard to keep a place In the society of wealth and leisure which the city is rapidly develop ing. But it is a losing struggle. Her father, a kindly, simple drug clerk, is unable to give her a beau tiful home of the influence and background which the other girls have. She cannot entertain nor dress us handsomely as her former schoolmates. The boys who throng ed her front porch have become more sophisticate and her popu larity has waned. Finally when the desirable stranger whom she has attracted discovers the pitiful lit tle deceits with which she has sought to camouflage her home life, and the family descends ano ther step in the social scale by keeping roomers, Alice faces lifo squarely for the first time. With the same bright courage she sets out to do her share in winning thu family bread and butter. Although Alice overshadows the book, Mrs. Adams, the nagging wife who blames her husband for his failure and Walter, the Im possible brother, are powerfully drawn. Tarkington himself expresses the motif of the book thus: "Alice Adams is the story por trait of a family, taking family to express type as In 'The Magnifi cent Ambersons' with a predomi nant figure and one member of the family as dramatic subject, the 'hero' or 'heroine'. In this story I am still concerned with the great flux, the current of American life in which the families struggle, not knowing the floods and droughts themselves. The Adamses are al ways partially submerged and get only a glimmer of the material prosperity for which families CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank our friends and neighbors for their kindness and sympathy during the illness and death of our mother and wife.
