Development Of the Newer Education

The present years work in the
Kennewick schools began under
fortunate conditions, there being
no element lacking to make it by
far the best year in the history of
the schools. The construction of
the new building furnished ade-
quate room for the former work of
the high school as well as for the
new departments started this year,
of which there are three, domestic
science, manual training and agri-
culture and horticulture. The con-
gestion in the grades has also been
relieved by the same means so
that there is adequate room for the
present and probable future en-
rollment for some time to come.
The buildings have been equipped
with the best in the way of up-to-
date school furniture and appara-
tus, laboratories and work shops

ments and for the practical work
of bench and kitchen.
The schools have been fortunate
also in securing an excellent corps
of teachers adequately trained and
well prepared by experience for
the work to be done. Only normal
school or college graduates have
been employed and all applicants
have been required to present at
least two years successful exper-
fence before being engaged here.
Only one exception has been made
to this ruling and it's application
in all other cases has been justified
by the perfect understanding of

been started with two classes, one

To fight the liquor evil. Mr.. Valentine
has organized new secret service force
known as the 'Iaw and order section"
which has it's central office in Denver and
which employs about 116 sleuths whose
sole duty it is to run down bootleggers
and other liquor dealers, itinerant and
otherwise, who have heretofore made big
profits by defying the federal law against
the sale Of alcohol to Indians In the past
year this force has made LII arrests
which have resulted in 1.16S convictions
and 6S5 Jail and penitentiary sentences to
terms aggregating 271 years. Those in
dicted have paid fines totaling over $50. 900.

pay the expenses of the entire law and
