HELENS, ORE. - The city water department fired its four beavers after a year's employment, and said from now on It would hire strictly human help. The beavers did almost everything every-thing that was hoped for. They built dams in the city watershed; they charged no salaries; they worked longer hours than any hu-Stwn hu-Stwn would. But they simply wouldn't follow the city's engineering plans. A year ago St. Helens turned the beavers loose on Milton creek. It expected them to build dams, impounding im-pounding water to be used during the dry season. They did build dams, oe. But they buijt them all in the wrong places. Instead of helping to store water, the beavers diverted small springs which had been flowing into the reservoir. No matter how often men followed fol-lowed the beavers around and destroyed de-stroyed their dams, the animals put them right back again in the wrong place. Federal Bank Examiner Pleads Guilty to Robbery Charge POCATELLO, IDAHO.-A federal bank examiner, who turned holdup man for two hours and was caught, because he lisped, pleaded guilty to a bank robbery. i Rudolph D. De Packh, who said he had been connected with banks for many years, held up the First National bank at Grace Idaho,- and escaped with $3,860. The bank was one which he had visited at least four times in 18 months as a federal examiner. Al-vin Al-vin Whitehead, cashier and one of three employes locked in a vault for an hour and a half, recognized De Packh by his lisp and despite his disguise of coveralls and dark glasses. "I know federal laws as well as anyone," said De Packh, "I'm better bet-ter off If I plead guilty." He said he almost took enough to settle some Nevada gambling debts and a $500 deficit which he said he had at an Elko, Nev., bank. i milium miiiiiiiiiniiiiiiniiiii imiiiiniiiiiiiiiiuuiiiim Oliill THAT GUARANTEES I Satisfaction I You can rely on our skill in re- 1 pairing the delicate mechanism of your fine watch. 1 TUIQB BflOS.

The law permitted several' official of-ficial credit and supply agencies to establish a chain of shoe factories fac-tories to furnish the shoes at cost.

"No lies in this ad," reads the heading of the author's classified ad in the San Francisco Eraminer. "This .property could be described another way but this is the honest way to describe it." A hilltop on the place is "all hard-pan" and a river bottom "all gravel and rocks." "No garage, no barn, small pump downhill, probably ought to be replaced, re-placed, 500-gallon water tank in basement probably ought to be cleaned.'' The heating apparatus is "out of order," Saroyan wrote. There are 50 young olive trees along a road, "but no practical way of watering them." "Owner only paid $3000 ' for property. He e keeeping sue or seven acres for himself as a monument monu-ment to his real estate sharpness. Will sell balance for $35,000. : "If interested," concludes the ad, "have head examined or telephone Fresno 8-8574 and ask for owner's cousin, Ross."
