SKI TOURNAMENT IN
MIDDLE OF SUMMER
Seattle, June 25. Siing in the sum
mer? It can't be done, says the sophis
ticated Easterner and Southerner. But
Pucific Northwesterners know better.
They stage a ski tournament every Sum
mer and have plenty of good white
snow on which to pull off spectacular
Blunts that make the crowds "O!" and
'Ah!" as the performers go sailing
through the air eighty to niety-five feet.
Ski lumpers throughout the North
west, Canada and tven the Middle "West
are preparing to enter the fifth annual
midsummer tournament at Paradise Val
ley, 5.557 feet above sealevel, in Rain
ier National Park, on vhe slopes of
Mount Rainier. The date cf the tourney
tbis Summer is July 3.
Men and women who took honors in
meets held in previous seasons win
advice from a banker or investment
house when money is to be invested.
The dealer in investments, whether
a bank or the type or insiiiuiioii max
specializes in securities of various kinds,
spends all his time studying various
forms of investments just as the doc
tor studies the varied types of diseases.
It is logical, therefore, to assume that
he is an investment specialist and us
ually is fully capable of giving you the,
best advice to .suit your individual in
vestment case. Advice from an invest
ment banker of good standing and n is
easy to find out whether it is good or
bad will mean the complete safety of
your invested funds.
Jt is well for all investors, men or
women, to bear in mind that were it nOt
for the investment house there would
seldom be an opportunity for the person
with but a few hundred or thousand dol
lars to invest with assured safety of
princlpad, as compared with the oppor
tunities presented to those of great
wealth.
SMALL INTEREST WORTHLESS
The investment house functions for
the small investor as well as the large.
In fact it is the former class that re
ceives the greatest benefit from these
institutions. It is a well-known fact
that thousands of people would be
obliced to depend entirely upon sav
ings banks for whatever return sav
inss banks for whatever deturn they
might expect from their money had
not the investment banker made it
possible, through real estate bonds and
other similar forms of securities of
small denominations, for them to in
crease their income with complete safe
ty.
Don't risk the dollars of your prin
cipal for a few extra cents interest
safe and sound investment offered by
organizations which in some cases have
spent generations studying the neeas or
both small and large investors. Always
consult an investment banker before in
vesting your funds. You will then be
sure that your money is safe.

tary Penby's prder to the aamirai, is
sued Thursday, instructing nim te
state in writing the specific instances
in whieh he was misquoted in the press
accounts of his speeeh and to give as
accurate a text as possible of what h'3
said.
There was also attached a copy of
Admiral Sims reply.
In his reply Admiral Sims set forth
that his remarks were not prepared in
advance and that he spoke extempor
aneously. Before leaving London, how
ever, his reply says, he prepared a copy
of what he said with the assistance
of the London newspapers and Com
mander Land, assistant American naval
attache in London. This is the text
quoted in Secretary Denby's repri
mand". NOT QUOTED RIGHT.
"This copy of the speech will show
in what respects I was incorrectly
quoted in America." says the admiral's
reply. "The essential incorrectness of
the reports that were made on this sUe
is contained in the following para
graph from your letter (referring to
Secretary Denby's latter quoting the
accounts of the speech printed in
American newspapers):
"We have a class of people on th?
other side who are technically Amre
icans, some of them born there, some
naturalized. They are at war against
America today and at war against you.
The simple truth is they have the
blood of American and English buvs
on their hands." ,
"In no part of my speech did I make
any such statement as that just quoted
above. My reference was to the Simi
Fein faction of the Irish people who
fought us during the war and to th
Sinn Feiners in America who assistei
to flsht us during the war. The above
will show the essential differences be
tween the two statements.
"Referring to the enclosed copy of
my speech. I quote as follows:
"I have never hesitated to say that
the Sinn Fs-ln sympathizers in Amrc
ica, who helped the Sinn Feiners in
Ireland to fight the Allies during the
war, had the blood of English and
American boys on their hands.
"The above is the vital misquotation
that was made on this side; and as
far as I have been able to judge from
the comments . in the press, it is the
misquotation which has naturally
caused so much discussion.
FRIENDLY TO IRISH.
"In essential connection with the
above, 1 beg to invite attention to the
fact that upon no occasion have I ever
made any attack against the Irish pea
pie in Ireland or the Irish in Ameriea,
though it is constantly stated in th
addition, Canadian ski experts have
announced their intention of competing
in these events. Others from Nxrway
and Sweden also Are expected this Sum
mer. Tne tournament is unoer tne di
rection of the Northwest Ski Club.
Last year hundreds of persons went,
to ParadiFf Inn and from there viewed
the ski jumping. Other crowds lined
one side of the course, which was
marked off ar-A'ta Vista Knoll, near
the inn. The tourney this season will
oe held over the ssm course. -

LEAGUE ADVOCATES
STAGE CELEBRATION
London, June 25. -Thousands of
members of the League of Nations
Union today marched to Hyde Park i
where a. huge demor stration was held;
to celebrate the second anniversary of
the signing of the peace treaty and the
formation of the League of Nations.
Among the speakers were Lord
Robert Cecil,, Archbishop of Canter
bury, G. N. Barnes, M. P., J. R. Clynes.
M. P. From a series of international
platforms addresses were given in
twelve different languages.
The huge processions were accom
panied by detachments from various
organizations, and a touch or color
was lent by decorated cars and groups
of representatives of the forty-eight
different nations in the League of Na
tions in national dress.
The object of the demonstration was
to strengthen the membership of the
League of Nations Union, which at
present exceeds 100,000. It was also
designed to educate public opinion on
the objects of the union.
Owing to the industrial crisis the
original arrangements for a pilgrimage
from all parts of the country were
abandoned.
