BEAUTIFUL RUGS
Spokane, Wash. — Emily is a house
w ife who believes in safety first.
Emily is a modern horns builder who
selected the fire escape of the Spokane
Chamber o f Commerce building as a
most desirable site for a fam ily domi
cile. Probably it was the solidity o f
the iron platform which appealed to
her, or perhaps she fe lt safer in the
city than elsewhere.
Anyhow, the
fact that below her roars the traffic o f
s busy street and three feet sway a
noisy office force hammers typewriters
and slams desks and chairs around
m ale« no difference.
Emily is th rifty.
She believes in
conservation o f material.
Pieces o f
an old rope twisted around the fire es
cape and a few stripe o f bunting ap
pealed to her as valuable.
So she
worked them into the
foundation,
weaving the loose ends o f the rope
through the bottom o f her summer
home and using the bunting in the
side walls.
Paying no attention to the interested
audience nearby, Emily collected rub
bish and completed her nest. Then
she settled down to housekeeping and
motherhood.
Three beautiful
blue
eggs soon appeared and three weeks
later Emily had a fam ily consisting
mostly o f yawning mouths.
The
youngsters are now about ready to fly.
The nest is located just outside a
window o f the Spokane Interstate Fair
offices. President Thomas S. Griffith,
o f the Fair association, sees in the
visit o f the bird a good omen for the
annual show to be held September 3-8.
" W e have had mascots before,” says
Mr. Griffith, “ but this is the first time
any mother became so interested in
our work that she made her home
where she could watch all o f our
preparations.”

Urges More Food Conservation.
Spokane — Care in investigation of
facts before interference with normal
channels o f distribution, lest sudden
readjustment might force prices even
higher, was urged by Carl Vrooman,
assistant secretary o f the department

basing his assertion upon the fact that
food is being transported in quantity
and with regularity. The fuel prob

AUTUMN DEMAND FOR CELERY
Tendency to Rush Product to Market
Before It Is Well Blanched— Loss
In Trimming.
The bracing fall weather will stimu
late the demand for celery. At this
season when It Is selling readily at
good prices, there Is a tendency to
rush celery to market before It Is well
blanched. This Is a mistake, because
It necessitates severe trimming at the
market end, nnd the product goea to
the cheaper trade. To catch the best
grade, celery must be fully blanched,
clean and well trimmed.
