AS WA1!S (JO the present tronlili! in China is n joke. The entire
easualties thus fur, hiive proljably not equalled those of one
nijdit on the front in the World war, when there was nothing of im
portance to report.
But the net result of the conflict promises to be, far from a joke.
For what the world Is now witnessing is in Jvnlity the awakening of
the sleeping yellow tiinnt. '
For centimes China has Ijccd moribund. I'ntil very recently she
had no army had no militant spirit, was content to drift along the
paths of least resistance, the helpless tool of foreign interests.
Hut a decade ago a young China was born, a mere atom of en
lightenment and initiative in the seething mass of millions, but a
force nevertheless, and a force that lias steadily grown.
Today it is this Young China under the command of 'General AVu
which is apparently sweeping the military brigands from the Coun
try, and preparing to establish, a united China, supported by a mod
ern, well trained army of several hundred thousand fighting men.
In short the long awaited awakening of China has actually begun.
It may not be the menace to the white world that Koine historians
have predicted. But it will be a determining factor in that world,
a force that our grand children and great-grandchildren will he called
upon to meet, involving a problem, they will be called upon to solve.
The United States has been the greatest friend China ever had.
I'pon such disinterested service to China as the recnt disarmament
parley in AVashington witnessed, rests the foundation of hope that n
new and awakened China, will be a friend of American purposes and
ideals, rather than a foe.

Apple and Pear Exporters Organized
PORTLAND, June 13 An important
step forward in marketing northwes
tern fruits abroad was taken recently
when II. F. Davidson, who has large
orchard interests in Hond River, J.
Macpheo Fergus in, an orchardlst of
Yakima, Wash., and Edwin Smith, of
tho Traffic association at Wenatchco,
Wash., joined In organizing the Fruit
Export Corporation.
This is tho first concerted effort by
northwestern operators to establish a
direct European ofl'lco for handling
Oregon and Washington fruits, and as
this new concern is not financially in
terested In any European commission
houses or brokorugo firms they are in
a position to deal with any or all of
them, which opens tho opportunity to
dispose of the fruit on the best market
and to the dealer offering the best
prices Tho combination of tonnage
from tho threo largo producing dis
tricts will attract tho attention of
steamship companies and will make it
to their interests to provide more sat
isfactory service at minimum cost to
growers and shipper's and as tho Fruit j
ExjKirt Corporation is made up of
strictly northwestern men experienced
in the fruit business tho hcvt Interests
of the northwest will bo protected t
tho fullest extent possible, in matters
of both transportation and marketing.
Mr. Davidson has been located in'
New York City some ton years, wliere
he has been engaged principally in ex
porting apples and pears to various
countries of the world, especially to
Europe. Mr. Ferguson was engaged
In fruit marketing in Great Britain for
a number of years ooforo coming to
America and has beon successfully ex
porting large quantities of apples from'
tho Yakima district for the past tenj
years. Mr. Ferguson will spend July
and August In Europe establishing tho
European ofl'ico of the Fruit Export
corporation and arrango all details for
handling future business. Mr. Smith
spent tho summer of 11121 in Europe
investigating - marketing conditions,
and since his return has boon engaged
In exporting apples from the Wenat
cheo district.
Extensive dock and cold storage fa
cilities have been provided by the pub
lic dock commission in Seattle, and at
a recent meeting of the Public Dock
commission of the Port of Portland It
was decided to construct n large apple
storage warehouse at one of the ter
minals in rortlamt, and tho new organ
ization expects to make largo use of
theso facilities.

MAKING THE BEST.
JOHN .1ACKKNKON. of Houlderside. made post holes for the
trade; and, nil the users testified. "The finest postholos
made." lie stalled making them by hand, one posthole at it
time; but soon there rose a great Jetuand from every shore and
clime. And so he hired a hundred men to help bint at his chore,
and still his trade increased, mid then he hired five hundred mure.
And nowiis factory extends for half n mile or so. anil all his
customers are friends who boost him high and low. For every
posthole from his works is perfect as can be, inspected by a doz
en clerks, who any flaw would see. Ye know 1 liaS in the posthole
trade there's many a tawdry trick; a lot of worthless holes are
made by skates who'd get rich tpiick. Hut when they come from
Houlderside no fears disturb your souls, for Jackensou. he takes
n pride in selling perfect holes. Anil so, while other makers claim
that trade is on the hum. this Jackensou. who plays the game,
sees mighty orders come. Knob day he sees his business grow,
and grow, and grow ngnin: and every other week or so he adds
five hundred men.
a lover, as Shakespeuro declared, will
be demonstrated at the Page theatre
where "Moran of the l.ady Letty"
opens today for a four day run.
Tho Frank Norrls story is pure ro
mance and adventure unburdened with
a single problem and untormented by
any message except one of goefd cheer,
optimism and faith in youth.
And the scene of the romance Is the
great stretch of ocean on tho blHoV's
and up-mounting waves of which the
good ship Lady Letty rides flying her
valiant flag and plying her hazardous
way.
There is a heroine who dresses like
a man but is as feminine as a frill,
and there is a hero that dresses like a
fop and is as masculine as tho soldiers
chorus from "Faust."
Rudolph Valentino plays the rolo of
tho hero who is rudely snatched from
his social existence In San Francisco
and thrust before tho mast, as ignpr:
nut of thoi traditions of the son as a
native of tho high Alps. Dorothy Dal
ton plays tho difficult rolo of Moran
of the Lady Letty, who In losing hot
father, commander of the craft, be
comes heiress to his joli of keeping in
their places a mutinous, cut-throat
crew.
