Show THE CITIZEN ideal that men have ever sought in feminity. She is of medium height and slender. Her wealth of brown hair is now touched with gray, but her eyes are the merriest of blue that laugh and twinkle upon all occasions. Her are strongly marked, her nose beautifully straight, mouth full and ripe and generally parted in a smile, for Mrs. Hoover smiles often. 'The Hoovers idea of a good time and one that they niay find it rather difficult to enjoy should they take up their residence in the White House, is to pack a picnic basket wi1;h a good lunch, take some children along and motor to" the country and eat by the roadside."

Standing at the brink of the firepit of the world famous Kilauea crater, J. B. Thorup, of Salt Lake City, Utah, was recently made a member of the e. Hawaiian order known as Only those who have visited the volcano and paid homage to Madame Pele, Hawaiian fire goddess, are eligible to join this novel organization. Thorup was given a lapel or button to attest his membership in the fire fraternity, and his membership card bears the fiery seal of the Hawaiian Goddess. Her mark was obtained by scorching the paper in one of the steaming cracks of Kilauea. Travelers from every state in the Union and practically every country on the face of the globe have been The orinitiated into ganization now has 8,178 members. The adventures of Pele play an important part in all of Hawaiis mythology. Legends handed down through generations of Hawaiians claim that Hui-O-Pel- Hui-O-Pe- le. the goddess makes her home in the Halemauman firepit of the Kilauea crater and that she frequently assumes human form to foretell activity of the volcano. Kilauea is located in the Hawaii National Park on this island, the largest in the Hawaiian group. AGAINST CHAIN STORES THE GRANGE The Grange with several of the Pacific Coast states, especially in Washington, is waging a vigorous fight against the practice widely followed chain stores of using by certain farm products like butter, eggs, etc., as trade pullers, offering them at very low prices as a means of drawing trade to the chain stores. The injustice thus perpetrated upon the farmers roused the latter to action and they appealed to the Grange for help. This farmers fraternity is especially strong in Washington, Oregon and Idaho, and immediately got after the chain stores good and plenty, giving wide publicity to their unfair practices. The results are apparent in the case of several of the chain stores, which have advanced their selling prices on farm products and are no longer using the latter for trade pullers as formerly. The Grange even went so far as to endeavor to enforce boycott on the stores which dealt so unfairly with farmers, and the subject has attracted widespread attention in all the states mentioned. In other states a similar situation has prevailed among some of the chain stores, and the Grange and the farmers are taking notice of what has been accomplished in Washington and adjacent states. They plan a similar campaign unless chain stores give up their price cutting program. so-call- ed .

TRADE WITH POLAND REACHES NEW RECORD ilar increases were evident in petro- Trade between Poland and the United States reached a new record in the first half of this year with a total value of $27,927, 580. Polish imports of American goods have shown a marked increase over the imports for a like period ' last year; and exports from Poland to this country increased 10 percent. The United States retained second place among the countries of origin for Polands imports, accounting for 16 per cent of the total, says a statement by the Legation of Poland in N. Y. The prospects for the expansion of American trade in Poland appeared to be eminently promising as the items of American exports to Poland belong largely in the categories of raw materials and other means of production for Polish agriculture and industries for which the demand is steadily growing, states the United States Department of Commerce. It is pointed out that the unfavorable balance in this trade against Poland, largely cotton, is partially offset by the remittance of Polish immigrants in the United States. In Polands total foriegn trade for the half year the imports also established a new record, amounting to $188,176,421, an increase of 24 per cent over the first half of last year. Exports remained ' in approximately the same volume at $134,955,169. The continuous growth of imports is partly a result of the expansion of industry and trade. Operation and production of the principal industries were well above the average of the first half of 1927. Monthly average of coal production in the first half of 1928 was 3, 200,000 tons, as compared with 3,000,000 tons the same period a year ago; of pig iron, 56,000 tons, as for three or five years.
