as toastmaster. Following the ban
quet a concert was rendered by the
Centralia band, and the day's pro
gram closed with a street dance, two
blocks of pavement being roped off

Quality vs. Quantity
k
One hundred thousand hand bills on cheap newspaper
- can be bought at a lower price than 1,000 finely print- ,
ed booklets. A safety razor can be purchased for
25 cents, yet a Gillette will cost you $5.00; and you
can shave with either. There are places where you
can get a suit of clothes for $4.98, and the suit will
cover you the same as a $40.00 garment. You can
buy a New York Journal for one cent or you can
purchase a copy of Harpers' for 35 cents; and they
are both made up of paper, ink and type. You can
get a suburban lot in Jayville for $5, or'you can pay
$5,000 a foot on Second Avenue, Seattle, and both are
real estate. It is just a question of values. It is
quality against quantity.
*
Does not the same comparison hold true when you,
Mr. Advertiser, buy space in a quality publication
with a list of.quality readers? The chaff is separated
from the grain and you get all wheat. If it's quality
more than quantity you prefer, if it's value more
than cheapness you desire, you will then be interested
in the columns of THE WASHINGTON STANDARD.
Its readers represent the greatest buying powers of
our county; the advertisers in THE WASHINGTON
STANDARD are assured of a clientage of unusual pur
chasing power.

More I>elay The "re-studied" plans
of the state capitol were received
Monday by Secretary Rice of the
state capitol commission. They are
changes made in the Interior of the
building by suggestion of the state
officers. The plans for the founda
tion, which, if the object really is to
expedite matters, should have been
"re-studied" first, are still to come.
Another Trip Around the World. —
Last Monday a Boston woman start
ed from the statehouse steps in that
city for a trip around the world with
out a cent in her pocketbook. She
has agreed to start without money,
with only one suit of clothes, do the
trip in 10 months, pay her own way
and bring back $15,000. The trip is
to be made largely on the bicycle.
She has had a large number of pho
tographs taken which she will sell
along the road and one firm gave her
SIOO to hang their advertisement on
her wheel. The bet is for SIO,OOO
against $20,000 between two promi
nent sugar men. The name of the
venturesome Amazon is Annie Rap
chowsky.

name which has been on a prolonged

A Mountain From a Molehill.—The
evidencc in the Weir assault and
battery case, which has been drag

The Thurston County Farmers' A 1
liance and Industrial Union will hold
