TALKING PICTURES A FEATURE
Mark Important Departure in The.
atricals- Score Successes


A theatrical innovation that is
scoring a success in every city visited
is found in the Renfax talking motion
pictures, new invention superior in
every respect to anything of like
nature shown heretofore. Musical
comedy on the screen while the char
acters act, sing and talk simultane-
ously has never been before deemed
possible but the Renfax musical talk
ing pictures are the latest develop
ment in talking pictures.
They have proven extremely pop
ular in all the cities in which they
have been shown and have scored
popular and artistic successes every
where. Their popularity and success
are attested to by theatre managers
and the public generally wherever
the talking and singing pictures have
been displayed. They will be shown at
the Princess Theatre on Monday, De-
cember 18.-adv.

HARBOR IMPROVEMENT
PLAN Is ADOPTED
But Little Interest is Shown at
Port District Election-Ma-
jOrity is but %

For some reason, perhaps because
political enthusiasm had burned itself
out in the heat of national, state and
county campaigns, it was an indiffer-
emit electorate that went, or rather
didn't go, to the polls at the Port
District election last Saturday.
But little interest was shown in the
comprehensive scheme proposition
either for or against. The proposition
carried, however, by majority of %
votes with 214 votes cast. Ingwall
Smith was elected commissioner from
the third district to succeed G. M
Annis, there being no opposition to
his candidacy.
Out at the polling place on Mob Hill
it was a sleepy afternoon for the cleo
ton officials as only three votes were
cast, two of these being the votes OF
the election judges. Things were al
most as quiet at the other polling
places. The vote follows:
First ward, 81 for, Is against; Gee
ond ward, 81 for, "a against; third
ward, Is for, Sc against; Highlands, s
for, none against; Valley, 1 for, 2
against; Gardens, 2 for, against.
The adoption of tie plan gives the
commissioners authority to make ex-
penditures on the harbor but the only
expenditures contemplated at this time
is the purchase of the present dock
and some slight repairs on it. This
can be done out of the funds already
raiced by the two-mill tax levy.

Little Robert was very bright and
at the end of his first term at school
was promoted to the second grade.
He was much attached to his first
Grade teacher, and was loath to leave
her. "Miss Eva" he said, "T wish
you knew enough to teach second
grade, so I wouldn't have to leave

NO CHRISTMAS
PROGRAM IN GRADES
Children Will FOreg0 Usual Ex-
ercises to Take Part in
Big Cantata
(By School Correspondent

(By School Correspondent
The grade children will forego their
usual Christmas programs this year
to engage in a cantata which will be
given as the annual Christmas enter
tainment. The final dress rehearsal
will be given as free performance
for the grade children on the after
noon preceding.
Failure notices which were due on
Tuesday have been withheld until
Friday in order to give those who
wish to chance to make up their
work and thus raise their marks.
The interclass basketball games
have commenced with a challenge of
the Freshman class to a game with the
Sophomore class.
The question for the Benton-Frank-
lin county debates has been selected
and will deal with the compulsory ar
bitration of industrial disputes. The
schools which will participate in these
debates are Pasco, Kennewick, Pros
ser, Kiona and possibly Richland and
Finley. The rules call for series Of
three debates with an account of the
points won by each team kept on a
record each time. The team having
the most points will be given the
championship.
Miss Walker, one of the two women
who are doing extension work in home
economics for the State College at
Pullman, spent Tuesday at the Ken
newick schools. In the morning she
talked to the third year domestic
science class, demonstrating many la
Dor saving devices in sewing and in
cooking. In the afternoon she gave
a cooking demonstration on meat and
meat substitutes. About sixty-five
heard them, the domestic science I
and II classes and the seventh and
eighth grade cooking and sewing
classes.
The seventh grade girls, who are
furnishing their rooms in domestic
art wish to make pillowslips and cur
tains next. Miss Makens took the
class shopping Wednesday morning to
select material and compare prices
and textures.
The Thanksgiving football game be-
tween Pasco and Kennewick high
schools resulted in a decisive defeat
for the local boys. The Pasco team,
which earlier had played Kennewick
to a score of Is to 9, had improved
greatly during the season and showed
a powerful attack and stonewall de-
tense, completely outclassing their
lighter opponents at every department
OF the game. The Kennewick boys
put up plucky losing fight, but were
unable to stop the rushes of the we'll
trained Pasco eleven, the latter going
thru the line or skirting the ends with
perfect interference practically at will
during the first quarter. After pill
ing up twenty-one points in the first
stage of the contest the boys from
over the river contented themselves
with one touchdown each quarter
thereafter, making the score at the
end of the game 41-0. The local team
has no excuses to offer for their de-
feat and congratulate their rivals
across the river on the best high
school team Pasco has yet produced.
The game was played at Pasco with
q fair-sized representation Of Kenne-
wick rooters going over to encourage
their team.
