WOMEN BACKING
THE SOLDIER BOYS

When the history of the war has
been written, the work done by the
women at home will impress itself up
on this nation as few even now realize
Literally, millions of women left their
homes and took up war activities into
which women had never before been
called, and many more at home de-
voted long hours at work in knitting
and preparing surgical dressings for
the boys "over there" Some may have
worked at the expense of health and
are now suffering from headaches,
backache, dragging-down pains or
some arrangement. 1t should be re-
membered that Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound for more than
forty years has been restoring such
women to health and strength, and is
now recognized as a standard remedy.

RICHI AND DEPT.

Manager Fred p. Freeman or the
Home Nursery, has been so busy with
his spring shipments that he has been
compelled to secure additional assist
ance. H s~
School Directors S. M. Ross, H. T.
Clark and G. c. Harding, accompanied
by Clerk C. S. Teachout, drove to
Prosser Saturday to consult County
Superintendent of Schools, Mrs. Iowa
M. Crawford in regard to local school
conditions for the coming year. Mrs.
Crawford, who is always willing to
assist any distict in the county to the
best of her ability, stated that she
would come to Richland within the
next week or ten days and see what
could be done. The schools have been
handicapped this year by lack of
sufficient teachers, two more being re-
ally necessary as the attendance in
some of the grades has increased be-
yond the expectations of the Board.
G. c. Lawrence, one of the best
known residents of the Richland dis
trict, has announced himself candi-
date for school director for the three
year term. Mr.. Lawrence, who has
had charge of the rural mail route for
the past eight years, is known to prac-
tically every citizen in this part of the
valley and will undoubtedly poll a
heavy vote. He was engaged in school
work, as teacher for over twenty-five
years before coming to the Northwest,
so is amply qualified to give efficient
service as director. The election is
to be held Saturday afternoon, March
1st and everyone should exercise his
right to vote as the welfare of the
schools is matter of vital import
ance to the community.
Wilbur Adkins, Richards returned
aviator, brought his mother souvenir
of the great war which will remain in
that family as an heirloom for future
generations. 1t is paper knife made
from pieces of the airplane in which
Wilbur barely escaped with his life
when attacked by hun bullets inside
the German lines. 1t was only by a
miracle that the plane with the en-
gines disabled made the distance to
its own lines where it fell disabled,
the fall being broken by tree. Will
bur was seriously injured and his
companion was killed. Some of the
shot from the enemy bullets show in
the knife as made up. Mrs. Adkins
would be glad to show this priceless
souvenir to anyone who is interested
and it certainly is well worth seeing.
The election to decide whether or not
an irrigation district will be formed
on the Horn Rapids project will be held
next Monday, March at the O'Connell
house in town. Every owner of pro-
perty under the project as well as his
wife, is entitled to vote at this cleo
ton. Also all owners of real estate,
whether by deed or tby contract, pro-
vided they are citizens of the United
States and the State of Washington,
are entitled to a vote. This will allow
a number of land holders who have
purchased land from the Irrigation
company and who have not yet re-
ceived a deed to the same, to exer-
else their right to vote just as do the
owners of decided land. Everyone
should take part in the election, as it
is only by a complete vote of the pro-
perty owners that it may be possible
to determine whether or not it is the
wishes of the majority to form such
a district.
