with their arrangements and then re-
quested the cooperation of the direc-
tors of the Kennewick-R ichland Straw
berry Marketing Union. This will un-
doubtedly be given them and there is
little doubt that we will have first
class cannery here in time to handle
the over-ripes this year. H..
Considerable interest is being shown
by potato growers in the Richland dis
trict in the movement to form some
kind Of a marketing association to
take care of the large yield of pota-
toes grown every year in this part of
the valley. Last year the crop was
enormous, but owing to marketing
conditions, the price obtained hardly
paid the farmers for their initial in
vestment in seed and labor. It is
thought that by combining this year a
better market and price can be OBJ
tanned which will give the grower at
least small return on his investment.

ego. This is one that was "handed"
to the Rev. Hugh Il. Burleson:
A young couple came into his rooms
just as he was going to begin service
in the church, and asked him to marry
them. He said if they would wait until
after the service he would give them
a public wedding.
After the benediction he announced:
"Now will those persons wishing to
be married please come forward?"
It is recorded in the story that IL
women and one man answered to the
call.

POCAHONTAS TO BE
GIVEN BY SCHOOL
Operetta to be Staged by Rich
land Students at Close of
the School Year

AS fit closing entertainment 70,
the school year it has become the Gus.
tom of the faculty and students Of
the Richland high school to present a
light opera, entirely cast from local
talent. Last year the success of the
affair was unprecedented and from
present indications the young people
will surpass even that effort in their
presentation Of the operetta "Pocahon-
tas" on Saturday evening, April %
in the high school auditorium.
Everyone is familiar with the story
Of Captain John Smith, on which the
operetta is based, while several hui
morous interpretations add much to
the enjoyment of the tale. Miss Ma
rie Dresser will give several Indian
dancing specialties, while a large
number of the students compose the
chorus rendering Indian folk songs
and old English ballads. The first
scene is laid in the open, being typ
ically Indian, while the second act is
an English court scene, depicting the
English life at the court Of Queen
Anne.
The young people and their instruc-
tors have been at work on this operet-
ia for the past four months and it is
to be hoped that everyone in the dis
trict will attend the show, to give evil
dence that efforts of this kind are ap-
preciated.
The credit for the successful as
sembling of the talent and staging OF
the students is due to Miss Ethel
Smith, instructor in music, Prof. C.
D. Lille and Prof. Walter Holt, who
have had charge Of the staging and
costuming of the entire production.
Most of the costumes have been made
by the students themselves, altho the
costume worn by Prof. Holt in the
leading role has been imported and is
said to be a work Of art and truly
realistic.
All places of business in Richland
will close promptly at 8 o'clock Sat
urday evening to give everyone a
chance to be present at the hour set
for the commencement Of the enter
tainment, $3.50, sharp.

TRUCK TIRE PERFORMANCES.

A. this time, when the eyes OF the
country are centred upon tho doinss OF
the American army engaged In the pur-
suit OF villa IN Mexican territory. every
detail Of equipment Is coming under the
closest scrutiny of the experts as a guild
ance for the future.
Great stress Is being laid upon the
performances of the fleets OF motor trucks
carrying the thousands Of tons OF sup
plies inland over the sandy desert and
mountain trails OF northern Mexico. so
j.. w. Sherwood. local representative Tor
Gibney solid tires. calls attention TO the
wonderful part played by solid tires In
the performance of these up 20 date
methods Of transportation and commun!-
cation.
".As man in tho Stone Ago. As the
horse, the ass. the mule. the elephant, the
llama and tho camel have been the bur
den bearers from the vistas OF time. so
Gibney solid tires are the actual burden
bearers Of the commercial truck period"
This II his claim. and he substantiates
II by tracing the part played by tho cush-
ion effect of the soles of the feet OF men.
OF the hoofs of horses. mules and llamas
and the pads OF the elephant and camel
to the modern cushion effect Of solid tires.
ut Is the tire that makes the truck
possible by forming the cushion between

and load and the roadway. and no one
studying the modern problems OF trans
portation can overlook the wonderful part
being played by solid tires, be it on Mex
