The young people had planned to
have the affair over with and make
a quiet get-away without bothering
their friends a great deal in saying
goodbye but the friends, suspecting
some important event, had statiorfed
about a dozen sentries around the
premises and escape was simply im
possible, the result was that instead
of an auto trip to some nearby town
where a train could be boarded un
observed they had to take the train
right here in Belding and suffered
bombardments of rice, old shoes and
sundry other appropriate articles,
both at the house and at the depot.
Their destination, however remain
ed a secret, no amount Sf torture
being able to make them reveal
where they were bound for.
Mr. Steele is the proprietor of the
Battery Shop and Mrs. Steele has

Woolen blankets, made of three
eights wool, grown on sheep in Mich
igan, Iowa, Wyoming, Texas and oth
er western states, are to be sold dir
ect from designated woofen mills to
the consumer, thus affording the wool
producer a fair profit and the user
a saving of perhaps fifty per cent of
the present cost of blankets. The
blankets are to be rwoven of virgin
wool direct from the farm.
This plan is being worked out in
the west and it has every chance of
success. At present there is no mar
ket for wool and the warehouses in
the wool states are filled because of
no sales. The wool growers are des
perate. Two years ago they receiv
ed as high as 75 and 80 cents a pound
and this year not abid is made by the
buyers as a general rule, although
woolen clothing and blankets remain
practically as high as they have been
for more than a year.
The plan embraces the grading and
concentrating of the wool in central
warehouses and supplying it to des
ignated woolen mills which are to
manufacture it into blankets to be
sold, to hotels, hospitals and private
individuals. Agencies may be estab
lished in Vevery large city and the
price of these blankets is to be about
one-half the present cost in the re
tail market, acocrding to careful cal
culations made by the wool growers.
J. E. Bogg-Scott, of Coleman, Tex.
one of the largest w.ool growers in -the
sourtwest and a member of the
National Wool Growers' Committee
of the American Farm Bureau Fed
eration, says out in his country m&t
and women are weaving saddle blan
kets of virgin wool for the cowmen
and ranchers on old-fashioned hand
looms resurrected from the attic.
The plan of the southwestern wool
growers is to concentrate their wool
at Galveston, on the Gulf of Mexico
from which it is only 5 days by wa
ter to the big New England woolen
mills. Mr. Bogg-Scott showed the
comittee that present rates from the
western states by rail to Boston can
be lowered to the tune' of as much as
60 cents a , pound of wool by water
from Galveston.
- The loss. to America .wool growers

qA Fascinating Outdoor
Ficlion Serial
One of those tales which appeal to the quality in man and
woman-that finds stories of human contest with the wild
forces of nature so enthralling. Possessing a high degree of lit
erary merit it is being hailed as the modern classic of its type.
Zflnt Grey says:
"The Voice of the Pack is clean, fine, raw; bold, primitive; and
has a wonderfully haunting quality in the repeated wolf-note."
The New York Times says :
The Voice of the Pack contains an intimate and detailed knowl
edge of the Oregon woods that makes the novel fascinating. The
tory in the main is a woodman idyL rich in poetic fancy and
throbbing with a reverent love for a nature whicn'is unspeakably
wonderful both in its majesty and in its all-pervading hospitality.
The Chicago Daily News says:
"Taken all -.around. The Voice. of the Pack is the best of the
stories about wild life that hat come out in many, many moons."
T12 fifht' chapter , of this great story will
appear in the Banner-News next wseh.
