A POSSIBILITY

When tariff makers of renown
Shall cut each unjust duty down;
When landlords ask but little rent;
When banks and trusts shall be con-
tent
With modest profits now and then
On trade they do with common men;
When railroads cease to charge rate
Almost the value of the freight;
When coalmen, lumbermen and such
Shall cease to waste and spoil so much;
When middlemen shall be no more;
And he who runs the retail store
Shall find profitable way
To scale the prices we must pay;
When, in each legislative hall,
Our Statesmen" serve US, one and all,
Instead of working for the folk
Who hold the land beneath their yoke;
When you and |, with thrifty care,
Shall stop the leakage here and there,
Resist from thoughtlessness and waste;
When all these goodly things are so,
The cost of living may get low
But, l dunno!

SCHOOL NOTES

Miss Alice E. Luth, who was for two
years teacher Of the third grade in the
Washington building, was here visiting
her brother and some of the teachers
while attending the convention at the
Methodist church.
Prof. c. E. SINNERS, of the Depart
ment of Education of the Washington
State College at Pullman. inspected the
schools of Kennewick Wednesday. He
addressed the high school in the after
noon, the following being the substance
of his speech: Each person should be
prepared to pull his own weight in So
ciety, and to do this he should be ed
ucated America has stood for educa-
ton ever since the Puritans landed on
the eastern shores and founded schools
to teach their children the three RS
reading 'riting and 'rithmetic. Today
the high school system offers the OPP
portunities for higher education; and
the normal school. college and the uni
versity affords still greater opportuni-
ties for fitting ones self for his or her
life-work. Prof. SINNERS believes
that there has been more progress in
the last twenty-five years than in any
twenty-five preceding, and predicts
that the next twenty-five years will
see even more advance So that there
is still a chance for the boy or girl who
thinks all the great inventions have
been invented. Prof SINNERS brought
greetings from the State College. He
called meeting of the seniors and
discussed their plans with them. 1t is
not his policy to advise every student
who consults him, to 60 to Pullman.
Some may need normal school train
ing; others, university course, and
others still, perhaps preparation in
some institution outside this state.
Prof. SINNERS was well pleased with
the educational system of Kennewick.

JOHNNY APPLESEED.

Johnny Appleseed has been dead six.
ty years and more, but his work, IL not
his soul, goes marching on. In very
literal sense Johnny Appleseed plant
ed good seed. and the fruit Is still
growing
II will be well for US all IL after we
are dead we leave behind so much
good as that done by Johnny Apple
seed
He had a hobby 1t was the grow
ing of apple trees. He loved the ap-
pie, and he wanted others to know 1t
and love 1t as much as he did.
So he went about the country plant
ing apple seed. and from that he got
his name. Many Of the apple trees In
the middle west are direct descendants
of the trees planted by Johnny Apple
seed.
A goodly fruit Is the apple.
Johnny Aprleseed lived in a time
when there was strife between the
whites and the Indians. But the red
men knew him and his work. and 1t u
recorded that they never molested him.
They considered him a great medicine

Up and down the land went Johnny

planting good. He came to his death
when going to look after some of his
trees which had been damaged by cat
tie.
Why not emulate him?
Not In planting seeds of apple trees.
for there are men who know more
than we do about the fruit But we
may all set out trees Of truth and love
and kindness and service to our fellow
men that shall grow after we our
selves are laid away underneath them.
We need not travel up and down the
land as Johnny Appleseed did. Each
in his own community may easily find
planting room for the seeds Of good.
So shall the land be covered with the
good fruit that the hungry may eat
and be filed. that the weary may taste
and be refreshed.
