Councilman Erickson is back almost a week from a it to the Skagit power site. He reported virtually that it was too expensive.

Many men do not buy because they have no place of safe keeping, or fear they would be stolen or lost. Many men have no home or even a trunk, or even a grip to carry stamps in, and they are not safe anyway, This would mean a lot to many men who would like to help Uncle Sam, Yours for &: A READER, DON’T LIKE LETTER Editor Star: That dainty little bit of humanity that objects to riding here a short time ago from Chicago. | working clothes.
