Yes, Business Is Good iN ORE than a half mile of Puget Sound lumber is piled along the wharf at one of the municipal docks. This is for shipment to Japan. Tf those who do not expect the lumber business to be good in this part of the country for the next few years will take a walk along the length of this substantial testimonial, we believe they revise their opinion. New Orleans women demand equal rights in barber shops. Hope they start growing whiskers. Watch the Council LTHO the fact is not realized by many of the average voters, a city council is in many respects of more importance to Seattle than is a mayor. It will be well, therefore, for the voters to pay just as much attention, when they go to the voting places March 11, to the nomi- nees for the council jobs as they do to Messrs. Brown and Lundin. Mr. Brace claims the woodchopping championship of New. England. ‘The champion log rollers of the world are in Washington. Common Sense, Anyhow DERHAPS the decision of Judge C. C. Dalton in dis- missing a shooting charge against a Seattleite who shot a man he found in the company of his wife wasn’t entirely according: to Blackstone, but the common sense ‘of it, at least, is according to Hoyle. Warns the judge: “Any man who runs around freely with the wife of another has trouble coming to him.” Maughan will try to fly across the continent this June. This is the first case of spring fever. A Tip to Safe Movers I\ [EMBERS of the Midnight Safe Movers’ association can’t seem to realize the peril of these little sub- urban parties.
