Mrs. Harriet Hawley Lecher
Defends Work of Club
Federation.
PARENTS SUPPORT NEEDED
Says Compromise Is Necessary
on Preseht-Day Produc-
tons.

An earnest plea for public co-opera
ton with the motion picture commit
tee of the District Federation of WON
ems Clubs is made today with pro.
grams sent. out for chiidren's motion
picture matinees Friday and Saturday
OF this week.
Attention is called to the necessity
OF keeping box office receipts OF
pay matinees up to the standard of
attendance for free matinees.
Without this solid proof of financial
support from mothers and fathers it
will be impossible for the committee
to persuade managers of flm houses
to keep trial pictures going.
AltruIsm IL Not All.
Altruism is not the sole and guild
ing instinct behind cooperation of
the Aim kings, even II 1t is the mo-
tive which has prompted the women
OF Washington to obtain better photo
plays for children.
In answer to criticisms of the
project as It is being carried out, the
chairman of the committee, Harriet
Hawley Lecher, has made the follow
ing statement:
Films Not Made For Children.
ITO the Public:
TN presenting the selected pro-
grams for the trial matinees for chill
dren. j wish to say In answer to
the various criticisms which 1 have
received, that there are few pictures
on the market today that are exactly
what we would ask for children, al
most every one of them having some
thing we would eliminate.
I'VE have the unqualified statement
Of the producers that they are not
manufacturing for the Juvenile audi
ence. Every picture that they release,
no matter what its subject. IL based
upon the box office receipts. And the
public who are interested in this
campaign must learn to consider that
great factor first. 1t is the wall that
stands like the rock Of Gibraltar be-
tween the conditions which now exist
and our ideals We want pictures for
children.
But, we can't have them until we
show the exhibitor and the producer
that IL they win furnish the pictures
we want land IL would be well for
them to learn what Is really wanted
before they go to the expense Of
manufacturing). that We win stand
by them.

finement on a bread and water diet.
The order for the punishment. which
officers admitted was administered for
serious offenses" only, was said to
have been issued by Lieut.. Frank A.
Spencer, OF Battery d, officer Of the

Lieut.. Col Frank H. Hines, COM
mander Of the Second Battalion Of the

NO NATIONAL DRY
BILL This SESSION
Senate Vote on D. c. Measure
Indicates Amendment
Would Not Pass.

Congress will not submit a prohi-
bition amendment to the States-at this
session. This was made plain by the
vote in the Senate last evening, when
the District Prohibition bill was
passed.
That vote was IS to 30. II shows
closely the division of the Senate on
prohibition.
Two-thirds Vote Necessary.
A two-thirds vote would be needed
to submit the national amendment to
the States. ~
1t Is apparent that on the basis of
the vote on the District bill q two
thirds vote cannot be obtained In the
Senate. Even IL the necessary two
thirds could be had in the House,
which is by no means certain, 1t could
not be had in the upper branch OF
Congress.
Nevertheless, Senator Sheppard AMI
other advocates of prohibition are
greatly encouraged by the Senate's
passage OF the District prohibition
bill, and the more so in that it came
righb on the heels of the action of
the Supreme Court Of the United
States in holding constitutional the
webb-Kenyon law.
To Press Amendment.
Senator Sheppard expects to press
the prohibition national amendment
to a vote just as expeditiously as
circumstances will permit. The op.
position may conduct an indirect fill
buster to delay 1t.
Senator Kenyon is studying the de-
cision OF the Supreme Court in the
Webb-Kenyon law case, and may IN
troduce a bill to exclude liquor from
Interstate commerce. This, he holds,
is the direct and quick road to ma
tional prohibition, and he has 10
doubt that II Is constitutional. Sena-
tor Thompson of Kansas, already has
presented such a bill.

and good faith in making good on the
box office receipts, we must keep the
attendance of the pay. matinees DIP to
that of the free matinees. And we
must continue to send the children

OKANOGAN DEALER BUYS
FROM G. N. LUMBER CO.
D. W. Holland From the Upper Columbia
River Country Comes Here to Make
Contract With Local Concern

Mr.. D. w. Holland a lumber dealer
from Manse, a new town on the Great
Northern branch up the Okanogan river
was here Tuesday in conference with
the salesman of the Great Northern
Lumber Co. in an endeavor to make a
deal for some Of their product. He
said Manse had only recently been put
on the map but on account Of its ad-
Yantageous location thinks it will grow
rapidly. 1t is six miles north of Brew
ster and will be the shipping point Tor
the western half of the newly opened
Colville Indian reservation. He says
the reservation is rapidly settling up
and much land went into cultivation
last year and this year, on account oi
the high prices prevailing for farm
products it will have something aproxi-
mating a boom.

ADAMS WILL MANAGE
BIG FRUIT EXCHANGE
Left tuesday For the Coast to Take in
Duties as Field Manager For Big
Selling Ageny-Has Charge
Of Z States

Mr.. ]. B. Adams left Tuesday alter
noon for Seattle from where he will GO
to the Hood River, Oregon, country in
the interest OF the Northwestern Fruit
Exchange, one OF the largest fruit
handling concerns doing business in
the northwest. He was recently
appointed Field Manager for the North
western and will come in contact with
the apple growers of some six or eight
northwestern states. His long practical
experience in apple growing and latter
ly two years experience in the market
ing and packing of apples makes him
valuable assistant to the Northwestern
Fruit Exchange. He recently re-
signed a position with the Federal
marketing bureau to devote his entire
time to his new duties with the big
apple shipping concern.

COMPETITIVE DRILL ON
THE FOURTH OF JULY
Confined to the Home Guard Companies
In Chelan COunty-A Silk American
Flag the Prize

At the drill rehearsal Wednesday
night the matter of having competitive
drill on the 4th of July was raised.
The contest to be open to any Home
Guard in Chelan county. The drill to
take place at either Wenatchee,
Leavanworth or Cashmere, as may be
decided on. With a competitive drill
to look forward to the interest in the
weekly drills would be vastly increased.
Every company would take more
interest and the members make an
effort to be on hand at drills. If any
one knows of better way to keep up
the interest in the preparedness
movement raise your voice.
The prize could very appropriately
be a silk American flag.

Lamb-Davis Lumber Co. Win in
Upper Court.

Attorney w. F. Whitney last week
won a case in the supreme court on a
point that had not previously been
adjudicated in this state. The suit
was originally brought by the Lamb
Davis Lumber Co. against E. F.
Stowell, Administrator of the estate Of
Maude B. French, to recover $803 for
fruit boxes furnished by plaintiff TO a
former administrator of the estate. The
claim had been rejected by Stowell.
The case was decided in the lower
court in favor of the defendent. The
question decided, as We understand the
decision, is that estates are liable for
anything supplied to an administrator
without a special order of the court
when the material furnished or thing
furnished is to be used to prevent
waste, in other words to conserve the
interests of the benefciaries.

Home Guard Making SOIdiedike
Appearance.

Some forty odd, which about covers
those who attend the home guard drills
regularly, are making very soldierly
appearance when they hold their drills
on the street. While few have had
some experience in drilling most OF
them never formed in line until two
weeks ago. In their bearing and step
they have made such improvement as
to be the subject Of frequent comment.
Which only goes to show what men can
do if they set their heads. Should
their services be needed by the gov
eminent the few hours given TO drilling
every week will make the home guard
a much more useful and efficient body
OF men than they would otherwise be.
The alternative of which is the loss of
little time devoted to otherwise
healthful exercise.

Council Proceedings

Our water system was the main topic
of discussion at the council meeting
last Tuesday evening. 1t was practl-
cally decided to go ahead this summer
and make the needed repairs and i'm
provements which it is believed will
prevent any further trouble such as We
have had the past winter. A new
intake for the supply pipe is contem-
plated and in all the expenditures will
probably amount to $4,000
Bills to the amount Of S435.o5 were
allowed.
1t was moved and seconded that the
outstanding Water Extension Warrants
be paid under protest.
Permission was granted E. G. Wheeler
and F. J. Brady to operate popcorn
wagons on the street
