D Phone Mate ® SSS GIVING SEATTLE A PAYROLL OQ’ ANOTHER page of today’s Star, Port War- den Paysse outlines a plan which he may rec- ommend to the mayor for the purchase by the city of factory sites now being held for exorbitant prices by private owners and their DISTRIBUTION FREE to companies which will locate here and give Seattle A REGULAR’ PAYROLL. The Star agrees with Capt. Paysse that his plan would give a tremendous momentum to the city’s industrial development. And it undoubtedly is true that the city needs a payroll. In the city which has a steady payroll, there you will find prosperity. And steady payrolls come only with factories. Capt. Paysse admits his plan would involve considerable expense, but he thinks that it could be spread out over the next couple of generations, so that the immediate effect upon the tax levy would not be keenly felt. Recognizing the urgent necessity during the coming year for economy in the municipal gov- ernment, The Star nevertheless is mightily inter- ested in Capt. Paysse’s plan. It is worth lookin into. TERRIBLE OUTRAGE PEAKING of jitneys, Uncle Bill Clayton, man- ager of the Spreckles’ street railways, says: “During May, 1915, we were offering 1.87 seats per passenger, or nearly two seats for every pas- senger we carried.” Clearly the thing should be stopped and a re- turn be made to the old condition of two-passengers for nearly one seat.

FRANK PAGE of the Dodge City, Kansas, Methodist church, held service last Sunday at the little town of Wright. He concluded his closing prayer by offering fervent thanks for the bountiful wheat crop. Then he started home, taking a short cut through a wheat field. Next mogning he had not shown up and his wife, almost frantic, called on the town marshal for help The entire town turned out to search for the lost minister. Three days later, after raking thou- sands of acres of the wheat wilderness, they found him in the thickest part. He was nearly uncon- scious and murmuring over and over, “Lord, we thank you for your bountiful providence which gives us so much pplenty in wheat.” Without meaning to be irreverent, we want to say that we call that some wheat and some game minister, The only flaw In the tale Is that the news item states that the good minister was found by a Kan- sas editor, who vouches for the story. HORRORS! WILL THEY DO IT? N' IW that President S lo is on the job at state university, our curiosity is greatly aroused as to what the students will call him.

Brother Willis testifies that, on one occasion, he and Thaw went fishing. For hours they sat on a bank without any sign of fish and with mosquitoes eating them-alive. “I was eager to move on,” swears Willis, “but Thaw was too de- termined and showed no signs of minding the un- merciful insects a bit.” Any man who will stick when an undertaker- first baseman yells enough, has got a mind of his own, all right.
