There are cotton voiles with satin

patrons and teachers. He heartily
commended the plan for organizing
a parents-teachers club this winter,
the aim of which is to be the estab-
llshlng OF cooperation, understand
ing and sympathy between teachers,
parents and pupils. The affairs of
the children would be far more ca
pably handled by such a society
than at they are at present. Supt.
Lewis spoke at some length upon
the lack of Domestic Science and
Manual Training courses in the
past and made it clear that the lack
of room has made it impossible to
carry them up to this time. Their
necessity and value has been clear
ly recognized by the directors and
teachers and their institution into
the curriculum will be fastened as
much as possible. By the middle
OF this year or the first of next,
these departments will be flourish
ing in our schools if all plans work
out according to present indications.
Dainty refreshment was dispensed
from the punch bowls which were
presided over by the ladies of the
committee in charge. Great credit
is due these ladies for the splendid
success of the function and the
pleasure which their efforts gave to
a large number of the towns best

DEATH OF MRS. LLOYD

Mrs. Bert Lloyd died Thursday
evening, September 2Sth, at seven
o clock, in the Walla Vale hos
pital after an illness which dated
back to the early summer months.
GOitre was the cause to which her
death is assigned, although she had
been in i'll health for some time.
Her condition became critical about
three weeks ago and she was removed
to Walla Walla where every effort
was made to save her life.
She is survived by her husband,
who is in business here. and both
her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. V. S.
Knox of Weston. Oregon. Her
father is a prominent lawyer of that
place. She was the only child of
the family and died at the age of
twenty-seven.
The funeral was held in the un-
dertaking parlors in Walla Walla
and was conducted by one of the
Presbyterian ministers Of that city.
A large number of friends were
present and many beautiful flowers
were tributes of their fond memories
of her. She was laid at rest in the
Walla Walla cemetery.
Grace Lloyd was born in Weston,
Oregon and spent most of her life
at that place and in Walla Walla.
A little over two years ago she came
to Kennewick and was united in
marriage with Bert Lloyd on Feb
ruary 23rd, 1910. She made her
home here since that time and has
many friends here to mourn her
loss. Mr.. Lloyd will not return to-.
his work here until he has fully re-
covered from the shock of her death.

The leading event so far recorded
on the seasons social calendar was
the reception rendered the city
schools staff of nineteen teachers
by the Ladies' Literary Club, at the
Commercial Club rooms. Friday
evening. With the exception OF
two, all the guests of honor were
present and they were greeted by
over a hundred of the schools pa
irons. The evenings program was
carried through without a hitch
and was most enjoyable to all who
attended.
The guests were met at the door
by the receiving committee, Mrs.
J. L. Johnson, president of the
club, Mrs. G. F. Richardson and
Mrs. Emile Shanafelt. After an
hour Of social conversation the
teachers formed a line which ex-
tended third of the length Of the
hall and were Informally presented
to the other guests. After this
little ceremony was concluded to
the entire satisfaction of the received
and the receivers, the guests were
called together by the chairman Of
the committee in charge OF the
junction, Mrs. E. O. Brown, and
the president of the Literary Club
introduced.
Mrs. Johnson made everyone cor
daily welcome with a few words
spoken in behalf of the club and
cited the object of the gathering,
the stimulation of a closer personal
interest between the parents and
the teachers.
Mrs. G. E. Hanson followed with
vocal solo, her selection being
AS the DAWN. She responded
TO the crowds applause with the
ever popular Rose Fable". Both

Mrs. F. NJ. Crosby, president of
the Woman's club, was called upon
next and expressed her apprecia-
uon OF the invitation extended to
the club by the hostesses of the eve
hlng In graceful terms. She said
mat she was delighted to see so
many OF the fathers present and
was glad to see them take such an
interest (not in the teachers) but in
TIE schools. She further expressed
nef Ideas OF the parents and teachers
working together for the common
e0oo VI the children, how the school
influences the home and the home
nnuences the school, forming a
happy or unhappy combination for
tae child accordingly as the con-
uitlons are ideal or the reverse. She

Pleasant Reception Given to I teachers

as tar as possible when childish
grievances are carried home from
school for the teachers side is gen.
orally the just one. since it is their
business to further the best interests
OF the child in every possible way.
Mrs. Crosby correctly voiced the
general sentiment of the clubs in
this city and elsewhere when she
said that one of the prime objects
OF the organizations is the improve
ment of educational methods. She
believes that one branch of learning
has been somewhat neglected in
the past, the training Of profession
al housekeepers. Mrs. Crosby called
attention to the fact that college
training for women has been pro-
ductive of higher self control, a
better standard of character, and
general strength and heartily advo-
Gated the introduction of domestic
science and manual training in our
schools here. The speaker further
stated that if the teachers would
come to the clubs with their troubles
providing any should arise during
the ensuing year, they would he
glad t, render them all the assistance
in their power and would supple
ment their efforts in behalf of the
children's welfare to the best of
their ability.
Prof. c. 0. Kimball, accom-
panied by Mrs. Kimball, favored
the audience with two cornet solos.
The old melodies, Alice, Where
Art Thou" and Robin Adairn
met with an enthusiastic reception.
Miss Ethel Burlingame, violinist,
in her first public appearance in
Kennewick, won the hearts of her
hearers with her excellent perform
ance of Cradle Songs" and "Trau-
merei." Nothing better in this line
has ever been presented in this city
and Miss Burlingame's talent will
be valuable addition to the must
cal resources of the town. The
evenings program was closed with
talk from Supt. M. S. Lewis in
which he expressed the pleasure of
the teachers in meeting with Ken
newick people, both those who are
reunited with their friends after the
summers vacation and those who
are new to the city and its people.
He spoke of the new schoolhouse
with a species of ill-concealed glee,
for possibly no one person has ex-
perienced more woe on account of
the overcrowded conditions in the
school rooms than he, for it has
been his duty to dispose of the rapid
ly increasing attendance in some
way and his troubles have been akin
to those of THE old woman who
lived in a shoe." He referred to
the people of Kennewick as the best
on earth and called attention to the
value of the reception as a medium
of better understanding between

matter of cooperation and says Ha-
wall can get anything it wants in the
publicity line. "They would be glad
for us to place men in the publicity
department and look after the Ha-
waiian end" says Mr. Wood.
Fifty thousand dollars Is not too
much of an appropriation, when scat
tered over four years, to accomplish
the aims of publicity, thinks Mr.
Towse. However, the sum to be ask
ed from the next legislature has not
been settled upon.
"Rusiness men IF the cit. aAI the
Territory generally will back up any
move of this kind am sure" said
Towse this morning. Now is Ha-
waits opportunity We can create a
great stream of tourists during the
wear of the exposition, and mean
while. every bit of work will have its
effect in bringing tourists here be-
fore the fair year, as they will be-
come interested in the islands through
seeing the literature we send out.
The Republican platform pledges
the party to sufficient appropriation
during the coming legislature to car
nv on promotion work and Towse as
well as several other members of the
Oahu delegation believe that now
that San Francisco has the fair, ef'
