TACOMA TRADE MARK L, SCHOENFELD & SONS TRADE MARK To Governor Hart PAN CHEHALIS Too Many Escape, Sheriffs MONDAY, AUGUS from Chief Seattle (A WEEKLY BUDGET OF MISSIVES FROM A FRIENDLY OLD SPIRIT) To the “Old” City Firemen Dear Boys; They thought they could throw you into the discard, didn't they, just because you have a few gray hairs and a few wrinkles in your faces—-thought they could push you aside to make room for « lot of young upstarts who don't know a fifth as» much about climbing ladders and stringing hoses as you who have given the best part of ‘our lives to learning the e? : Huh! The thea! You noes ‘eine They ougtt to know that a man jan't in his prime until he passes 45, and that many of the world's greatest men develop their greatness after they puss the half-century mark. I’m glad, for one, that you “old” fellows are going to continue to protect Seattle, I hope you stay in the harness 20 years more. A man ought to work until he dies, if he can. Otherwise he sort of @ries up and blows away, CHIEF SEATTLE. To One Who Found Two Letters Somewhere or Other Dear Somebody: Last week two letters were lost, and the one who lout them worried and fretted and simply didn’t have time to write them over. And she supposed they were gone—forever, Then sud denly an answer came from one of there letters—so they must have been malled—they must have. And they weren't even stamped when lost. ‘ You, somebody, must have the right spirit, and I've been asked to thank you, So—1 thank you. CHIEF SEATTLE. To the Confessed Member of the K. K. K. Dear Scribe: Your confession is Uke that of the words of, the Preacher, son of David, king in Jerusalem, "Vanity, vanity, all is van- ity.” You have seen the workings of the Ku Klux Klan, but that, too, is vanity. Better yet, piffie! The Ku Klux Klan fj» a wonderful organization for nobody. However, for the good of the community and country at large, let us pray, brother, let us gray. Amen. CHIEF SEATTLE, To the Chorus at the Bungalow Dear Mesdames: What pretty gowns and shapely forms with a dash of a drugstore here and there, you serve. You add a touch of frivolity to our fair city; and to the customer alike, chicken dinner or a bottle of pop, a smile well worth the price of admission. Alive, Aphrodite would envy your gowns and style, CHIEF SEATTLE. To the Tobacco Salesman at 920 First Ave. Hall, Friend; Does courtesy in business pay? You bet it doen! People will walk five blocks to buy goods from the man who is always affable and accommodating. That is why, when I run for my boat at the Galbraith dock, I always wait until I Come to your shop before I purchase my magazines and cigars. Sincerely, CHIEF SEATTLE. To All Flivuerites: : Dear Henrys and Elizabetha: Do you know the joy of vacationing in the ole bus along shady mountain highways and beside sparkling waters? Do you know the open-hearted hospitality of the road? Do you know the joy of getting away, if for only a few days, from the prison walls of the city? Hundreds of other flivverites do. Yours for Washington's great out of doors. CHIEF SEATTLE. To the Seattle Chamber of Commerce: Dear Boosters: The park commissioners have requested your assirt- ance in enlarging the municipal automobile camp at Woodland park. They want to erect a hostelry for tourists and increase the capacity of the camp from 150 to 400 cars. Tourist automobile camps are one of the best advertisements a city can have. Everybody is flivvering on their vacations these days, and the city that extends the honpitality of the Open Road to its visitors makes thousands of friends from al] parts of the world. 4 am giad you are going to lend your powerful influence to the enlargement of Zax Gedlcad park coup.” Sten tates actab aon CHIEF SEATTLE. To Seattle Pessimists Dear Gloomers: Did you notice where the city railway department pald its semiannual interest payment of $375,000 and then had $164,- 250 left as a balance? And do you realize that the street car system is O. K. just so long as she pays interest due on her purchase price? And hasn* a faint suspicion leaked into your brain pan that perhaps after all the municipal railway wit! climb out of the hole and be a big asset to the city? Yours for the silver jining, CHIEF SEATTLE. To the Superintendent of Schools Dear Mr. Cooper: A girl is not permitted to leave school usually until she has completed the grammar school. But there is something more that should be required. She should not be permitted to leave schoo! until she is able to cook a plain, simple meal properly. The average girl eventually marries and takes up management of a home. Too frequently her preparation for this important task consists of ability to operate a canopener and to garnish a salad. And she fearna, at the cost of many heartaches, that while the way to a fiance's heart may be thru the eyes, the way to « husband's beart is thru the stomach. The path to the divorce court too often is strewn with sad biroults, hard pie crust and tough steaks. Make cooking lessons compulsory and extend them for every girl in the Seattle schools, CHIEF SEATTLE. To Whoever’s in Charge of the Y. M.C. A. Gym Dear Whoever: You are having the celling and walis of the gym painted a nice light color. That's fine. But I hope the brightening spell does not end there. Not being in the class of Douglas Fairbanks, most of us fellows use the mats more than the walls for our acrobatic stunts. And those mats! Honestly, I do not believe they have been cleaned for more than a year. Everybody is complaining about their condition. I know two or, three chaps who have been infected from mat burns. This would not happen if the mats were sanitary. Let's get the cleaner busy! Yours for health, CHIEF SEATTLE. Pacific Coast Tong Societies Dear Employers of the Highbinder: “What's the matter with a dis- armament conference for Celestial gunmen? Don't you think it would be worth not a few opium taels to bring the brothers of the blood to- gether for a long draught of the peace pipe? Here's hoping the red lantern of war in your narrow, mesmeric streets blow out soon. CHIEF SEATTLE. |\To My Noisy Apartment House Neighbors Dear Friends; I hate to kick, especially at home, but when you let loose your phonographs, and your player pianos, and your feet, and your voices, after 11 p, m., my sleep for the night is practically ruined. And I have to get up earty, too. I don’t mind jazz, at the proper time, “Ain't We Got Fun!” But please remember, the proper time for the loud sort of fun that you enjoy is before 11 p.m. The night belongs to the weary. CHIEF SEATTLE.

Now, what I'd like to know is, why don't you look into some other types of cases? Last December a young chap, George Stagg, by name, was arrested and sentenced to prison for KIDNAPING HIS OWN SON from hts divorced wife. She got the child back, hae remarried and is happy, while Stagg. in spite of the efforts of the American Legion to secure his pardon, ts still in prison. Stagg was no slacker, He Is a fine, big chap who made a bad mistake for which he Is paying too dearly, Honestly, governor, do you think there is a Person in the state of Washington who would begrudge this young man his freedom? » CHIEF SEATTLE.
