berculosis germs and other varieties
of germs familiar to scientists
Health Commissioner Crichton will
recommend that telephone transmit
ters be frequently disinfected, par
ticularly those used in public places.
when the transmitter mouthpiece
is moist there is comparatively little
danger of catching a disease" said
DR.. Crichton. at is when the sur
face of the rubber mouth piece be-
comes dry that the myriad microbes
are waited about by the breath. The
directions for using telephone are
to speak directly into the instrument
with the mouth held close to the
opening. Where the germs are dry,
the current of air caused by exhaling
the breath blows them directly back
into the speakers face.
telephones are indispensable and
it is impracticable for everybody to
carry his own mouthpiece. 1t fol-
lows that as a reasonable precaution,
the transmitters should be washed
out frequently with peroxide of n.y.
drogen or some other disinfectant
equally as good.
cat the telephone exchanges, / am
informed that a disinfectant is used
daily to clean the transmitters. The
same excellent rrac.ico obtains IN
several Of the drug stores. where
there are telephones in frequent use
There are various makes of attach
ments for mouthpieces which are de-
signed to prevent the lodgment OF
germs. Some of these are good and
some of them are useless. Whether
these so-called disinfectors are used
or not, in the interest of health and
cleanliness, telephone transmitters
should be frequently washed with
something that will kill germs.
Although there is no way by
which the spread of disease may be
directly traced to the telephone
transmitter, there is every reason te
believe that germs do pass from one
person to another through the medi'
UNI of filthy instruments"

THE bOLO CLUB
CONVENTION
DELEGATES FROM VARIOUS
PARTS OF THE STATE MET AT
NORTH YAKIMA AND ELECTED
OFFICERS.

Wenatchee was not represented at
the State Bolo Club convention, held
at North Yakima the first of the
week, but although most of the pro-
ceedings were kept secret. yet
enough facts of the meeting have
crept out to indicate that very in
teresting session was held. The
delegates elected Guy Kelly, of Ia
coma, as their president; NJ. s. Scud-
der. of North Yakima. as vice presi-
dent; C. L. Schulz, of Spokane, as
treasurer; Henry Leach and Herman
Leeper, of North Yakima. were
named as two of the trustees, the
others being Messrs. John Resi- and
A. Baxter, of Seattle; A. West. of
Tacoma; William Ruddock and c. L.
Goodwin, of Walla Walla, and Innis
and Peterson, of Spokane.
The club had three business ses-
sions and one social session Sunday.
the meeting being at the Eagles hall
and the banquet at the Hotel Wash
ington. There were present some 60
delegates. The proceedings Of the
convention have not been made pub
| lie. The club is composed of Span
ish-American war veterans. The or
der had its inception in this state,
but within the past few months has
been growing with great rapidity In
Oregon. Idaho and California. New
clubs are being organized in Ohio,
New York and various parts of the
east, some mighty shrewd men are
taking hold of the work and 1t is pre-
dicted that the future of the Wash
ington movement will be political
organization without rival in this
country.
At the speeches at the social ses-
sion nothing was said which would
give an outsider an idea of the plans
or strength of the movement but 1t
was clearly enough apparent that the
order in this state has among its
members men who studied politics In
New York both in the Tammany and
other organizations and who have
pretty clever idea of it's workings.
A national convention. the first.
will be held some time this coming
summer, probably at Tacoma. during
the time of the A.-Y.-P. exposition
at Seattle.

VA[HA[[A IS
. ALL SOLD OUT
pROJE(T PROMOTED BN GUN
THEIR CARLBERG MEETS WITH
GREAT SUCCESS. - OTHER
PROPOSITIONS COMING UP.

The Daily World has been advised
nv Gunther Carlberg to cut out all
advertising for his company as the
valhalla tracts are all sold out and
there is nothing left to sell.
The Valhalla project promoted by
Mr. Carlberg has remarkable success,
and it means the building up of a
thriving little community down the
river near Malaga. The proposition
has especially appealed to the invest
ors who want their orchards given
expert care during the first five years,
or pending the time 1t is growing in
m bearing. These are the people who
have taken very kindly to the Val
haila proposition.
Mr.. Carlberg has a number of 9TH
ar projects which he is getting ready
m nut on the market soon, and it is
safe to say that any of his 1otations
will be received with just as kindly
a reception as has his first one.

PLANTING 800
ACRE ORCHARD
LOWELL BROTHERS GOING VERY
EXTENSIVELY INTO THE AP-
PIE BUSINESS ON SUNNY.
PLANT.

w. D. and R. T. Lowell have lost
no time since they came here Sep
TENDER 1 and purchased $50 acres
of land on Sunnyslope from Amos
Peters. This land is above the high
line ditch, some of it being pretty
rough. Since they came here 800
acres of this land have been put i'll
readiness for the planting of the
trees and 100 acres of it have already
been planted and the balance will be
put in early in the spring.
The plan is to water the land from
a pumping plant, taking water from
the high line ditch. Three bitches
have already been laid out and water
will be pumped from three different
levels. From twenty to thirty men
have been employed all fall on the
levelling of the ground, digging
bitches and planting the trees. Half
of the entire 800 acres is to be
planted to Winesap apples and the
other half will be equally divided be-
tween Jonathans and Spitzenbergs.
R. T. Lowell has had charge of the
work on the place. Both he and his
brother came here from Minneapolis
and they are interested in the own
ership of the Valley Power Company
recently purchased from W. T. Clark,
Frank Scheble and Marvin Chase. A
fine house, barn and other out-build-
ings have been erected on the place
and the plan is to grow a model or
chard.

nothing definite was decided upon

Ice Is seriously interfering with
river navigation. The eddy at the

took the boat two hours to make a
landing last night. Much slush ice
is running and passage-way has to
be broken at every landing. The
up-river boat did not leave here this
morning until s o'clock, and it is
likely that it will not get beyond

Threatened to Send Her to Reform

Old Tells Judge Rohnert.

threats, TO go through marriage
ceremony with man sever years her
senior. and whom she heartily dis
likes. Sarah Aaronfeldt, only 10 years
Old, appeared before Judge Rohne-t.
Saturday noon, and told story OF her
parents efforts 10 marry her off to
Peter Ordelo, who lives next door to
the girls home at No. 267 Winder-st..
and TO whom she was married, April y,
by Justice DeGaw.
The girl has never lived with her
husband but she declared that her
life In her own home had been made
miserable by her parents threats that
Unless she went TO live with Ordelo,
and celebrated an Orthodox Hebrew
marriage with him, she would be sent
to the reform school. She finally APP
pealed to Truant Officer Grossman,
who took her before Judge Rohnert.
Sarah, whose appearance bellies her
tender years, told the judge that she
refused all OF Ordelo's advances. until
he told her that her mother had only
a few days to live. and that she would
be turned out OF her homo when her
had verified Peters warning TO her
Then, when she still hesitated. she
alleged that she went through the mar
riage ceremony. She was told to say
that she was IS years old, she de-
clared, which she did, resolving TO
never live with her husband. But, once
married, she declared. she was con-
stantly urged by her parents and by
Ordelo. to go and live with him. When
she refused. they declared that they
would send her TO the reform school.
But she still baked, and the court ses-
sion followed.
Judge Rohnert, after hearing the
girls story, and the admissions OF the
mother, a frowsy looking woman, said
that he intended to thoroughly investi-
gate the case. Meantime, he sent the
girl to the house OF the Good Shepherd
for one week, and Miss Hart, OF the
Jewish Charities, will investigate the
case.
The Aaronfeldts and Ordelo have
been In America only about two years
coming here from Roumania.
