FIRST AID TRAINING
TO MEN AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life
Saving Methods.

The purpose OF instruction In FRS
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
lean Red Cross is to train men ant
women to administer First Aid treat
ment promptly and intelligently whef
emergencies demand 1t. First Aid
treatment Is not intended to take the
place of a physicians service. A sur
geOn should always be summoned a.
precautionary measure where there
Is an injury Of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured few min
utes' delay may mean fatality. In
such case person trained in Firsl
Aid is invaluable not only to the In
dlvidual. but through him to the com
munity in which he lives.
There Is perhaps no way of ascer
tanning the number OF deaths or seri
Gus disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. 1t is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily
There can be no doubt that the appli
cation Of First Aid methods to each
case would UNNECESSARILY tighten the
countrys toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro
duced farreaching and beneficial in
fuence In the prevention of accidents
on railroads, in mines and In great In
dustrial concerns.
The benefit of widespread knOw!.
edge Of First Aid In the event OF
great disaster, such as a train wreck.
an explosion, an earthquake, etc., is
obvious l.nymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as.
sistance. Many lives may depend upon
such emergency care.
Red Cross First Aid work includes
~ the formation and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters. of classes for In.
In accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men
and women in all communities and in
every industry; (2) the Introduction of
courses of instruction in high schools Il
apd colleges.
The Red Cross Is prepared to supply
First Aid books and equipment at rea.
sonable prices.
Every person in this country able to
do so should, In his own interest, re-
ceive Red Cross First Aid instruction.
Information about the course and in.
struction classes may be had at the
nearest chapter headquarters.

SOUND LEADERS

Harding and Coolidge will be
sound leaders. They take the posi-
tion that this Is government Of the
people and not Of one opinionated
man. They will call into counsel the
best minds of their party and the
government will commence to func-
ton normally. The tea-party dream
ers who have made the cabinet by
word and Joke for the past four
years will retire into the obscurity
from which they were dragged by
Mr.. Wilson and we shall have men of
real ability instead Of second raters
in the control of the government de-
partments. 1t really looks as though
there would be real America now.

Happy on His Wav.

In one of the Indianapolis schools
recently the teacher announced to her
pupils that they would study China
during the afternoon, and told the
children to bring various products of
the country. Very eXcitedly a little
chap rushed Into the grocery store and
told The grocer 10 give him a nickers
worth of sassafras. as he was to study
China at school. and the grocer told
him she must have said Indiana. but
he gave him Gunpowder and Imperial
mixed. instead Of the good old Hoosier

way.

VOTERS RESENTED 1T

The voters of Dickinson county
evidently resented the dlsgracefnl
campaign Of Misrepresentation made
against County Attorney Smith and
County Clerk King. 1t was not a
fair fight; 1t was not a clean fight,
and such attacks always react. The
candidates against them may thank
part Of their overwhelming defeat to
the effect Of the campaign waged.
People like square fght--they do
not endorse Misrepresentation II they

NEW FIRM TAKES OVER
MATTECHECK HARDWARE
Washington Hardware and Furniture
Company Formed by Three
Local Men

While the Mattecheck Hardware
company will pass out of existence,
M. w. Mattecheck will continue in
the same line of business in the same
location. Together with Otto Hauei-
sen and Wilmot Gravenslund he has
organized the Washington Hardware
& Furniture company.
The new firm will take over the re-
manning stocks of the Mattecheck
Hardware company, restock the de-
pleted lines and continue the business
with all three actively participating
in the management.
"When put on my closing out sale
I fully intended to quit business in
Kennewick," said Mr.. Mattecheck. 81
had been negotiating with parties who
had agreed to purchase the business
after the stocks had been reduced.
Owing to the unforeseen Tightening of
credits these parties are unable to
purchase consequently have decided
to continue"

COMMERCIAL CLUB INVITES
DIR. HINDLEY TO SPEAK
Educational Director of Retailers As
sociation is Asked to Visit
Kennewick

H. H. Snyder, field secretary of the
Washington Retail Dealers associa-
ton spent yesterday calling on the
business men of Kennewick. Mr.. Sny-
der was a guest at the Commercial
club luncheon and briefly outlined the
objects and purposes of his associa-
ton. He said that just now the eff
forts of the association were direct
ed to the task of bringing business
back to normalcy without financial
disaster directly to the dealers and
indirectly to the general public. He
declared that to- condemn Americas
great business structure because of
misdeeds of the comparatively few
profiteers was like condemning the
whole American army because of the
cowardly acts of the few slackers
found in it's ranks.
At the close of Mr.. Snyder's speech
the club voted to extend an invitation
to DR.. H. J. Hindley, educational di-
rector of the association to address
the people of Kennewick at an early
date. .... ...... "a o.. ..

RED CROSS ROLL
CALL GOES SLOW
Kennewick is Far Behind its
Qu0ta-B0Oks to be Kept
Open until Dec. 1

To date Kennewick's Red Cross
membership roll for 1921 contains the
names Of not to exceed 500 men or
women or not more than one-half the
quota assigned by chapter headquar-
tiers. The response to the annual
roll call has been much slower than in
years past. The rural districts have
come more nearly meeting their quo
tas than has the town.
To date no personal solicitation has
been made in the business district
The residence districts and the close
in rural communities were canvassed
by the Minute Women.
In an effort to bring Kennewick up
to its quota the membership books
will be held open until December 1
and membership will be accepted at
several of the local business houses
where the work is being handled by
members of the Business Girls club.
1t is not generally known that hard
ly week passes that the Red Cross,
through it's local branch, does not ex-
tend aid to some needy person. eFor
the most part this aid is given ex-
service men or their families. The
work, however, is not confined to ex-
service men but aid is extended to
anyone who is in need. Now as dur
ing the war wild tales are being cir
culated as to what the Red Cross does
or does not do with its funds. In
variably these stories are without
foundation in fact and originate with
those who are looking for a cheap ex-
cuse of hanging onto a dollar that is
asked for a worthy cause.
