DECREE HULA HULA
AS A SOCIETY DANCE

New York. Sept e.-Hawairs IA
nous hula Is going to be danced by
Americans this winter. For SO 1t has
been decreed by the American So
ciety of Professors of Dancing. OF
course 1t Is not to be the real bare
foot article with a grass mat and a
garland Of flowers for a costume, but
sort of submitted Hawaiian dance
adapted by certain radical and neces-
sary changes for the ballroom. The
immense popularity for the Hawaiian
music Is responsible for the evolution
of an Hawaiian dance for ballroom
purposes and great vogue is pre-
dicted for 1t by its sponsors.
Next to the Hawaiian the military
influence will be strongest felt In the
modern dances for the coming season,
the dancing masters declare. Every
thing that Is not Hawaiian will be
military. The military stride will be
interpolated in the fox trot and even
the stately waltz will be danced with a
military bearing.
The influence of feminism Is prob
ably the cause of the decree OF the
dancing masters that In the modern
dances the men shall go backward.

Little Irene and Her Song

Irene was a fragile little girlhood
sunny smile and CHEEKY song radiated
Joy and ziadncss throughout the Sal
walton Army's Fresh Air Camp dur
ing her stay at that helpful institu-
ton
She was never so happy as when
contributing to the comfort and pleas
ure Of her little comrades. or per-
forming some office OF love for the
aged and infrm. Her sweetness Of
manner in expressing appreciation of
any kindly interest in her welfare
was an inspiration to the camps pro-
ago she approached Richmond lay

/ sage and gweetly thanked him for his
visit and helpful words,
! She was passionately fond of the

/ clear voice added silvery bell note
70 tho open-air anthems. Her favorite
song was, II Am SO Glad That Jesus
Loves Me" and she would joyously
| clap her hands in rythmical accom-
| paniment, while the JOY OF the little
soul was reflected in her pretty face.
Such was Irene Covington,
Last Sunday there was lost chord
in the children's chorus. There
seemed to be a sigh-quaver in each
! voice. Irene's note was absent The
angels had claimed It for the Celes-
tial Choir. II almost seemed we could
catch tho echo OF her gladstone song

which rear their lofty plumes above

Sweet flowers of loving memory or

supplant her heart-song.
And little Irene and her song still

TURKEY CROP is SOLD
Richland Turkey Growers Sell Fancy
Birds to Davenport Hotel


The largest part of the turkey crop
of Richland was disposed OF for the
Christmas market. o. H. Luelloff, who
has proved himself to be the turkey
king of the district, placed over 16O
birds on the market, while Mrs. Pat
rick Costello disposed of over 100 and
still has a large number left. Both
Mrs. Costello and Mr.. Luelloff shipped
their entire number to the Davenport
Hotel, Spokane, Mr.. Luelloff making
a trip over to see that the birds were
properly handled. The preparing of
the big turks for market is some
what strenuous job, as the Hotel will
accept only the very choicest samples.
This year these two shippers received
81 cents per pound for their flocks
and they are we'll satisfied with their
returns. Mrs. Costello expects to
raise a great deal of corn next year
and many more turkeys, as does Mr..
Luelloff. Another turkey enthusiast
who has made good is Mrs. B. S,
Wadsworth. She has just purchased
a big Tom from Eastern Washington,
it's sire having weighed 81 pounds, SO
there is no doubt she will improve he1
stock by this importation.
