THE FIRST PAPER-AN EX-
elusive HISTORICAL ITEM

When Adams Eve began to do the
housekeeping for Adam, she shad no
cares such as pursue the modern Ad-
ans madam. She did not know what
was the rage, because there was no
Woman's Page.
She did not get Daily Hint from
Paris full of passion to start her on
a daily sprint to keep up with fashion.
She did not haunt the beauty stores in
order to keep open pores.
When Adam came home at night Che
was no weary plodder), he did not
shiver lest he might be served with
curious fodder. There were no papers
so YOU see there was no Household
Recipe.
Old Adam was happy bloke and
lived a life most CHEEKY. He did not
know that he would choke some day
with his bacteria. Adam and Eve had
never read Health Articles to scare
them dead.

Eve never went thru Adams breeks
when he was sweetly dreaming, be-
cause there were no Bargain Weeks to
tempt her with such schemeing. The
serpent thought she was goose. She
was too good for any use.
The serpent was a clever brute.
Tho he'd never been thru college, his
sanctum made him mighty cute. It
was the Tree of knowledge. "Aha!"
he said, "Ill publish, free, The Daily
Eden Apple Tree!"
The first edition raised row whose
scandal shocked creation. Since that
first issue Adams brow is wet with
perspiration. It told the scandal, rich
and rare, that Eve had not thing to
wear!-From The Mergenthaler Lines

UNLOADING THE CHEST

UNLOADING THE CHEST
TT is a wonder that a lot of us
! don't croak even in cool wealth
er because of the heavy loads we
habitually carry around on our
chests. For that reason meet
ings, such as was held at Finley
last Friday evening, are a fine
thing. They offer an excellent
opportunity for some of us to
unburden. They serve as a sort
of safety valve to community
life. III
After all, about nine-tenths of
our troubles are imaginary and
the other tenth is due to a mis-
understanding of men and mo-
tives. Getting face to face with
the other fellow has a very sooth-
ing effect on the imagination and
as a rule it grasses the prefix from
misunderstanding.
Had there been more meetings
like the one last week that hos
tility which imagination has de-
creed exists between the Kenne-
wick business men and the val
ley farmers, and which is as elu-
sive as the bird in the bush,
would long ago have been eradi-
Gated.
All the hostility of the past
has been just about as real as
that which has been stirred up
over the new milk ordinance.
When the present situation is
sifted to the bottom it turns out
that the business men and mem
bers of the city council want ex-
actly what the farmers want.
They want to protect the public
health and to promote the dairy
industry and to do it in the way
that will prove the least burden
some to the farmers. There has
been not the least disposition
anywhere to "hand'' the other
fellow anything. Why should
there be? Why should anybody
in reason think for a minute that
the business men wish to put the
creamery out of business? If
any of them really wish to COM
nit suicide, jumping off the
bridge would be much more ex-
peditious than the much more
painful method of bankrupting
the farmer which means self
destruction to the business man.
We are strongly in favor of
more such meetings. Personally
we would much prefer to hobnob
with highwayman or to bunk
with siwash than attempt to
neighbor with a man who nurses
a crouch. Therefore, we move
that we carry our chests to the
dump heap as often as possible.

TIME IS SHORT

THE last day of registration
j both in the city and the coun-
try precincts for participation in
the primaries is drawing near.
The registration books will close
the evening of September l and
will not reopen again until Sep
tember IL, the day following the
primary election.
Some voters are inclined to
look upon compulsory registra-
ton as an unnecessary hardship.

THE RIGHT WAY

COME there may be who think
DKennewick is donning long
trousers at too tender an age in
adopting it's new traffic ordi-
nance. But nothing can be writ
ten down as premature which in
sures the public greater safety
without imposing hardships.
The new ordinance imposes no
hardships. 1t is just as easy to
drive along the right side of the
street as along the, wrong side.
1t is just as easy to turn a cor
ner the right way as the wrong
way. It is just as easy to stop
an automobile near the curb as
out in the middle of the. street.
And it is a whole lot easier to
slow down to Is miles an hour
along the business streets than
it is to pay for broken bones and
lot more satisfactory than to
ride in a hearse.
The city council has had sew
eral hundred copies of the ordi-
nance printed in pamphlet form
and there will be no excuse for
any local resident who travels
the city streets to be in ignorance
of the new traffic regulations.

- The Courier Reporter was
shown to an eastern manufac-
turer of war munitions and his
opinion of it asked. After look
ing the paper over the man OF
gun powder fame remarked that
this Kennewick place must be
the queerest community on the
face of the globe. why" he
said, there isn't a word in this
paper about the war" He was
right. There wasn't a word about
the war. But had those Euro
peans been loading their cannon
with Kennewick strawberries
there would doubtless have been
a first-page story about the con-
flict. The Courier Reporter is
more interested in those things
which may enable the farmers to
accumulate a surplus of $1.50 to
pay for a years subscription
than it is in who ticks the Kaiser.

It should be borne in mind that

1t should be borne In mind that
every voter has a whole year in
which to register and those who
register now and vote at every
general election will not be re-
CURED to register again for four
years. After all, this isn't much
of a hardship.
Every citizen should remem-
Der, too, that it is just as i'm
portant to register and vote at
the primaries as at the general
election. Often times the pri-
mary election is the more i'm
portant of the two, for it is then
that the contest is decided and
the general election becomes a
mere formality. If good men
are nominated at the primaries
certain it is that good men will
be elected at the general election.
Remember that it is necessary
to register before you can cast
your vote at the primary-no
registration, no primary vote.

 All of the city dads were on hand when Mayor Blake called the meeting to order and, until the heating ques- tion developed, the business of the meeting was carried forward with the celerity born of long familiarity.
 Following the reading and approval of the minutes, a communication. was read from the residents of the north end of B street requesting the in- stallation of electric lights but the same was refused owing to the capacity of the power plant being al- ready strained. The city attorney reported that, in as much as no deed mad been received for the Mclean lot, payment for removal of the building had best be held up. He also intimat- ed that, as the dog ordinance appear ed to be ineffective, the city should round up some of the loose animals a~ shoot few and the owners would probably comply with the regulations. Councilman Rose suggested that the street foreman be instructed to place the pound in shape to keep stray an- imals. It was so ordered.
 Councilman Wesley presented a schedule of prices for steam heating the city clerks office and the upper floor of the city hall and also the fire department. The price stated was $94 per month. A communication from Jack Douglas offered to supply radiators, material, etc.. and install the same for $45O. Later on com- munication was read from Grant Lablain offering to perform the same service for s44S.
 Councilman McAllister announced that progress is being made on the pumping plant and would be com- pleted in about week, except for the installation of the pump, which has not arrived. Councilman Ross stated that he had wired to find out about the pump and expected an an- swer today.
 After some discussion, the Orland bill for the burial of Matt Jacobson was ordered paid. Claims and &C., counts against the city amounting to S56 were read and passed on to the finance committee.
 Councilman Burgh introduced an ordinance amending Ordinance 231, otherwise known as the Tax Ordin- ance, and making sundry and divers changes in the methods of tax col lection.

 Considerable discussion ensued as to the location of the new city Jail and after several proposals had been discussed, one that had been adopted was rescinded and the whole matter left in the hands of the finance and building committee and the city health officer.
 Councilman McAllister reported that the power company was willing to extend the present pumping con- tract for one month at the present contract price and Councilman Burgh stated that Manager Mcconnell had informed him that the old pumps could be left in place in the power plant without charge to the city. After some discussion it was decided to accept the company offers. It was ordered that the painting and paper ing of the pumping plant be left in

Territorial Mines Inspector William Maloney returned from his annual tour of inspection in the Solomon and Council districts yesterday and re- ports that mining activities are gener- ally suspended with the exception of dredging. The two Casadepaga dredges have closed down and also the Orc and Warm creek dredges but the oth- CTS were still running at the time of his departure and doing well. The Solomon dredges were also working in good shape. The present outlook is that the season will last considerably longer in both sections as there is little snow and the temperature mild for this time of the year. MT.

ONE OF BEST DlSlNFECTANTS
Whitewash is Recommended as First
Step for NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
ouehness Is Important.

Whitewash is one of the best disin-
fectants for damp. dark places.
The best way to apply whitewash
Is, first, to have it perfectly free from
Jumps, and then use a spray pump.
Thoroughness is important In all
kinds Of disinfecting work. 1t is OF
no use to dislnfect the walls of barn
unless you also disinfect the floors
and hangers.
One good point about whitewash is
that its color tells you when you have
thoroughly covered a surface.
Some of the cOal-tar disinfectants
not only destroy germs but also kill
lice, feas, parasites and, in addition,
heal cuts and wounds.
The best ways to disinfect yards,
such as after hOg-cholera epidemic,
are: First rake up all the trash al
burn it. Then cover the yard three
inches deep with straw and burn that
If you are not able to secure straw,
sprinkling the ground with lime is a
second choice. To disinfect posts and
fences, whitewash or paint them.
