A Carnival in Every Respect

Saturday, September 10, the clos
ing day of the Grape Carnival, the
editors of the weekly newspapers
of Yakima and Benton counties
met in Kennewick. Last week
the editors in attendance in
prominent articles on the front
pages of their papers, expressed their
views of the carnival, of the town
and the people. Extracts from sew
eral of these articles follow:
Prosser contributed goodly num-
Der of visitors to Kennewick's Grape
Carnival last week and all who at
tended are enthusiastic about the
showing made by our sister town.
The business men and residents there
got behind the carnival committee
and helped boost the show. They not
only boosted with talk but seemingly
all got in and worked, else the show
could not have been the success it
was, as any Prosser man who at
tended will tell you.
The Carnival was carnival in ev-
cry respect. There was the usual
Ferris wheel and merry-go-round for
the youngsters, and a number of good
attractions where the older people
could get rid of their spare change.
The exhibits were in three sections,
or pavilions. Grapes, of course, were
the principle feature, but the showing
of other fruits, grains and vegetables
was exceptionally good. So far as
grapes are concerned, there is little
doubt but that the Columbia river
territory can produce large variety
and q greater quantity of that lus-
cious fruit than any section of the
Northwest, # not the whole United
States, while the flavor is all that
could be asked for. In other fruits
and vegetables, there is little differ
ence between the east and the west
ends of Benton county, and the Ken
newick show had a most comprehen-
sive exhibit. The displays were all
tastefully arranged and Prosser peo-
pie who attended felt amply repaid
for their visit to the Columbia river

WEBSTERSCHOO[
OPENS MONDAY

Work will begin in all departments
of the Webster schools next Monday
the 21st of September. This is a
week later than usual, and it is hoped
that all pupils will be sent the first
day. In order to obtain the desireu
results, school attendance must be
looked upon as the pupils vocation
and work, and no pupil should be ex-
cused from this work except for sick
ness. Therefore parents should in
sist upon regular attendance from
September to June.
Miss Della Spears, Dickinson, N. D.
will be in charge Of the primary de-
partment again this year. Webster
school patrons should consider them
selves fortunate in getting the SER
vices of one so capable and experience
ed in this department.
Miss Pearl McIver, Lowry, Mimi,
who has proven herself so popular,
capable and efficient during the past
two years will again have charge Of
the intermediate department.
Miss Zoe Lundt, B. A., Berlin, Ia,
has been elected to take charge of the
junior high school composed of the
18th, Sth and 9th grades. Miss Lundt
has a good college training and has
had three years of successful expert
ence. Her special line of work will
be mathematics, German, geography,
reading and grammer.
Miss Frances Brossard, B. A., Far
mington, MIMI, will be in charge of
the senior high school. She is a grad
uatet of the University of Minnesota,
and has had two years of successful
experience as principal. Miss Bros
sard's special line of work will be
English, cookery, history, drawing,
ETC..
Mr.. G. S. Torvend, B. A., University
of North Dakota, will again be in
charge as superintendent. In addi-
ton as superintendent he will have
charge o fthe work in botany, chem
istry, manual training, psychology
and pedagogy, etc.
If parents and teachers work in har-
mony, there is no reason why this
should not be the most successful
year ever. Prospects were never
brighter. The domestic science de-
partment has ben made larger, and
now we shall be able to accommodate
a large class in cooking. Seventh
and eighth grade pupils will this year
get the opportunity of doing work in
manual training and domestic science.
The junior high school has been es-
tablished and from now on no pupils
Will graduate from the 9th grade,
but a certificate of completion will be
given after the ninth grade has been
finished. All pupils from the 7th to
the 18th grades inclusive will be call
ed high school pupils. All the teach
ers will take the subjects or classes
for which they are best fitted, and de-
partmental instruction will be carried
on throughout in high school. The
work of the literary society will be re-
sumed, and athletics will be taken up
as far as possible.

roughly seized by two men, forced to
the ground and $1.10 in cash, a knife
and a watch being taken from his
person, but the watch was handed
back to him as it was only a dollar
watch and worthless to the thieves.
The same evening a transient was re-
lieved of a roll of $40. Both hold-ups
took place in about the same locality,
and it is believed to have been the
work of the same parties. Darkness
shielded the ROBBERS so well that the
victims were unable to describe them,
and so Tar there is no clue for the au-
