'AMONG YOUR MERCHANTS
i
Customers and employes both for Montana with his family in a
at the J. C. Penney Company store newly-purchased gasoline gig, re-
have enjoyed a competitive angle turning to work this Monday after
to the annual mid-summer blanket
sale event conducted by the Shel-
ton store.
Closing last Saturday, the Shel-
ton store sold the remarkable to-
tal of more than 250 blankets dur-
ing the nine days the sale ran
with Mrs. Florence Etka far out-
distancing any other single mem-
ber of the store's sales force in
individual blanket sales, thereby
winning a cash award offered by
Store Manager S. B. Anderson.
The sales force was divided into
two teams for the event with the
kming team to arrange a store
picnic in the near future. The
blanket event was the most suc-
cessful held by the Shelton store
since Mr, Anderson's tenure as
manager, he told his sales staff.
A large portion of the total sales
were made on the store's lay-
away plan.
From the customers' angle, the
competition took the form of a
guessing game, with Mrs. Nonna
Anderson of 518 Cascade Street,
absolutely no relation to the
store's manager, winning a fine
new blanket with her accurate
guess. Mrs. Anderson figured
there w.ere 3890 pennies in a jar
reposing in one of the Penny
store display windows and her!
guess was only 31 off. A counting i
machine showed the jar contained
3921 coppers, Over 500 store cus-
tomers entered guesses during the
eight days of the guessing compe-
tition. John Hoolmr, 1022 Turner
Avenue, was second closest with a
guess of 3876 pennies.
After an extended vacation trip
to the East Coast, Joe and Irene
Fortes( are back at their familiar
duties at Forrest Flowers and
Gifts. They took in quite a num-
ber o£ major league ball games
dhring their absence and shot a
considerable footage of motion
pictures of noted major league
players in action which should be
interesting entertainment for their
friends after being developed.
Sight-seeing occupied much of
[the Forrest's attention and there
[again the motion picture camera
[was brought into play at every
/good opportunity. •
There'll always be an Oppelt
on hand to serve customers in the
L. M. shoe department, vacation
time or no.
Olwille Oppelt, manager of the
department as well as supervisor
of the L.M.'s window dressing
staff, left on a two-week vacation
trip this week to visit his blth'0r
H. A. Oppelt, a veteran employ6
of the Southern Pacific Railroad,
in San Francisco.
As he left, Mrs. Oppelt, who
works with him in the department,
returned from her two-week va-
cation during which she visited
their daughter, Nedra, and her
family in Seattle, and their son,
Mrion, and h/s family, in Ta-
coma.

a two week visit with relatives on
both sides of the family.
As Foreman Cole returned, G.I.
Apprentice Jim Shrum began a
two-week vacation with plans for
a trip to Texas to visit his folks
and show them their new grand-
daughter, although as this is being
written Jim hadn't left for the
Lone Star state yet.
Later in the summer Ad Make-
upman Casey Holmes expects to
take his family back to visit rel-
atives on both sides of the fam-
ily in their old. home towns in
Nebraska.
All of whic] is quite a pace for
the editorial staff to matclL if you
skip the huge mileage Boss Wiff
has already accumulated this year.
It may be vacation at home for
Mrs. Lavelia Andrews but her
added responsibilities at the An-
drews Studio this week probably
more than offset that asset.
Mrs. Andrews doesn't have to
feed the four hungry mouths her
husband, George, and their three
daughters bring to the dinner ta-
ble each morning and evening be-
cause they are vacationing in. the
Olympics this week with a pack
horse outfit, leaving Morn to run
the studio during Pop's absence.
Lake C00sl00an
Sunday callers of Mr. and Mrs.
Edward Radtke were Mr. and Mrs.
Rodney Smith and children of Se-
attle who brought Mrs. Radtke
home from a three day visit in
Seattle.
Mr. and Mrs. Maynard Faulkner
and son, Jim, spent the past week
visiting with Kenneth Bitney and
family at Lake Cushman. "On
Sunday all attended a picnic at
Robbinswold Scout Camp where
their daughter, Sylvia, has been
vacationing.
Sunday guests of the W. G. Pe-
tersons were Mr. and Mrs. Wil-
liam Homes of Seattle, employee
of the Seattle Transit System, and
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Kennedy, rela-
tives from Billings, Montana.
The O. K. Linscotts returned
Sunday evening from their trip to
the Inland Empire and report a
wonderful time.
Another white fawn has been
seen at Staircase Resort. The
mother is the same that had the
white fawn twins last year which
some lawless tourist shot.
Mrs. Edna Robinson left Mon-
day for a one week trip in the
Tiountains with Mrs. H. M. Wivell
and son, Clarence Wivell. and
Clarence Robinson. The party will
take three pack horses and three
saddle horses and expect to visit
Hart Lake, Marmot Lake, O'Niel
pass and Enchanted Valley.
Sounds like a ,fine trip.

Atom Specialist
At University
Lab This Month
Seattle, July 21 (Special)--At-
tempting to search out the secrets
of the infinitisimal neutron, Dr.
Enrico Fermi, the world's fore-
most nuclear physicist, is working
in the University of Washington
physics laboratories this month.
Dr. Fermi, on leave from the
University of Chicago, is helping
Dr. Clinton L. Utterback, execu-
tive officer of the physics depart-
ment, to develop the advanced
nuclear physics program at the
University• It is expected that
Dr. Fermi will give some public,
non-technical lectures on the early
experimentations with atomic en-
ergy during his limited stay.
Italian-born Dr. Fermi, who left
the University of Rome in 1938
when he became a personna non
grata with the Fascists, went to
Columbia University, New York,
to continue his work in atomic
energy. In March 1939, he told
President RooSevelt's Advisory
Committee on Uranium that he
thought it possible to construct an
atomic bomb.
At Manhattan
Immediately assigned to the
newly-formed Manhattan *project,
Dr. Fermi combined his independ-
ent data and formulae with that
of Albert Einstein, Lise Meitner,
Robert Millikan, and other out-
standing 'scientists, and was hp-
pointed to head a research labor-
atory at the University of Chi-
cago.
This laboratory, known only by
its code name, "Argonne," was
built under the bleachers at Chi-
cago's Stagg Field. It was there,
on December 2, 1942, that the first
atomic "pile" successfully proved
a chain reaction in the splitting
of uranium atoms could be pro-
duced. •
Responsible for making possible
the world's most powerful known
force, Dr. Fermi believes the
peacetime uses of atomic power
have been vastly overestimated in
the "predictable future."
Must Know More
"There is no immediate posslb|l-
ity that atomic powe will become
an imlmrtant economic factor in:
industrial use until we know more
about harnessing this potent
force," he explained. "For the
present, at least, I think It will
make a good tool for research
like a microscope in biological
studies, maybe---when we are cer-
tain what we are doing with it."
Dr. Fermi won the Nobel Laur-
eate Prize in Physics for 1938 by
virtue of his work in developing
the • theory of beta ray emission in
radioactivity. He has worked in
and made important contributions
to many diverse branches of phys-
ics but is best known for his or-
igination of the quantum statistics
of electron gases.
Artists Signed
For Puyallup Fair
September 13
Officials of the Western Wash-
ington fair at Puyallup, which will
run" from Sept. 13 through Sept.
21, announce that nearly all of the
attractions for the big three-hour
day and night grandstand show
have been lined up for the 1947
exposition.
Promise of a "bigger and bet-
ter" show than ever before has
been made by directors, who have
been viewing possible attractions
in Los Angeles, Chicago and oth-
er amusement centers. Dozens of
acts have been interviewed, but
directors have been particular.
Color, variety, comedy and un-
usual appeal are the factors gov-
erning the acts coming to Puyal-
lop this fall, says j. H. McMur-
ray, mmlager.
While officials are not announc-
ing the names of the acts already
billed they have stated that both
Cy Taillon and Gone Payne, mas-
ter of ceremonies and rodeo an.
nouncer respectively, have been
signed again this year.
"We feel that these two person-
all(los are the best In the field
today," McMurray states. "They
are colorflfl, know their business
and give the show aa added flavor
th eis rblseetabl '' brothers will
again stage the rodeo, whicl will
have several new features.
Advance reservations for grand-
stand seats may be made by mail,
starting Aug. 18, McMurray re-
vealed.

Medical Benefits
For Rail Men
Under New Bill
(Note: The followhig Is at ex-
cerpt from the Journal of the
American Medical Association,
May 17, 1947.)
A cash sickness benefit system
for railroad workers will begin
operating throughout the nation
on July 1. These benefits were
added under the 1946 amendments
to the Raih'oad Unemployment In-
surance Act and provide partial
compensation for wage loss due
to disability on the same basis as
that due to unemployment.
The system will be administered
by the Railroad Retirement Joara,
which administers the Railroad
Unemployment Insurance Act.
AlL disabilities which prevent
railroad employees from working,
regardless of how or where they
occur, are covered under the pro-
gram. In the first year of opera-
tions, about 300,000 of the 2,075,-
000 railroad workers qualified are
expected to receive benefits, and
the total amount of benefits is
expected to reach $36,000,000.
A physician's statement of sick-
ness will be required before claims
can be paid. It is believed that
the program will require about
650,000 medical examinations a
year.
Employees" are free to choose
their own doctors, and any phys-
ician to whom an employee goes
for examination or treatment may
supply the information required as
initial proof, of an employee's
claim.
The forms on which medical in-
formation will be requested from
a physician are the "Statement of
Sickness" and the "Supplemental
Doctor's Statement." The first
mentioned form is intended pri-
marily to obtain information at
the beginning of each illness, and
the second is intended to obtain
additional information only when
such information is needed later
on in the same illness.
The statements are aesigmed to
furnish, as simply and as conven-
iently as possible for the physic-
ian, the minimum information re-
quired for board purposes.
The "Statement of Sickness" on
which the medical evidence is to
be furnished must be mailed to the
appropriate office of the Railroad
Retirement Board within seven
days after the first day claimed as
a day of sickness, or the employee
may lose part of his benefits.
Claims for ueeeeding fourteen
day periods may be allowed for a
predetermined period as indicated
by the medical evidence on the
doctor's initial statement, but in
continuing illnesses supplemental
information about the patient's
illness may also be requested from
the physician.
Claims will be filed and adjudi-
cated ifl the regional offices of the
Railroad Retirement Board. These
offices are located in Atlanta,
New York, Cleveland. Chicago,
Dallas, Kansas City, Minneapolis,
Denver. and San Francisco and
serve the adjoining territories.
Each will have a physician who
will act as a medical consultant.
Additional information about the
program may be obtained from
any of the aforementioned offices.
