WHERE AND WHEN
TO VOTE TUESDAY
Some Voters have Misunder-
standing about Cross in Cir
Gle at Top of Ballot.

The polling places at next Tues.
days election will be the same as al
the primary election. The three wards
of the city will vote at the Columbia
Garage, the City Hall and the John
Dover Lumber company; the High
lands at the Club House; the Gar
dens at ID. j. Beinhart's; South Ken
newick at the Valley Club House;
Kennewick Valley at Mrs. Shaughnes-
sy's; Horse Heaven at Triple Springs
and Finley and Hover at the usual
places.
The attention of rural voters is
called to the fact that at this election
the polls in all rural precincts open
one hour later and close one hour
earlier than in the city. Voting in
the country will be between the hours
Of a. m. and p. m, while in the
three wards of the city the polls will
be open from a. m. until 8 p. m.
Voters are urged to read the in.
structions at the top of the ballot
carefully. There seems to be consider.
able misunderstanding concerning the
marking of cross in the circle al
the top of the ticket. Placing cross
in the circle at the top does not mean
that the voter cannot cast his ballot
for one or more nominees on any OF
the other tickets. For instance q
voter may place a cross in the circle
at the top. of the republican ticket
and then place cross in the square
opposite the names of one or more
candidates on the democratic or farm
er-labor ticket, or both. To illustrate
a ballot marked with cross in th'
circle at the top of the republican
ticket and crosses opposite the names
of George f. Cotterill, and c. c. Glib
son on the democratic ticket mean
the voter has cast his ballot for al
the republican candidates except Wes
lev L. Jones and Clifford L. Babcock
For these two offices he voted TO
/ the democrats.
This explanation is given for tn
reason that many voters, and som
election officials, are of the opinion
that a cross in the circle at the to-
of one ticket prohibits the voter iron
casting his ballot for any candidat
on any of the other tickets.

otherwise would be without even the
simple necessities Of life. Last year
In this country the Red Cross aided
more than 10000 victims of flood, or
other unavoidable disaster. "a
"This is part of what was done
with the half of the membership dol
lar which went into the national
treasury. Not all the statisticians Of
the country could total the good done
with the half which stayed at home.
And this is why I'm devoting my time
for the next few weeks to Red Cross
call work."

Big NIGHT AT
F. LEGION HALL
NOVEMBER 2
Ex-service Boys Make Elaborate
Preparations for Receiving
Election Returns
LEASE WESTERN UNION WIRE
National, State and County Results
Will be Announced to Dancers
in Knights Hall.

The boys of the Robert w. Ely
Post, American Legion, plan to make
this election night a memorable one
in Kennewick. They plan to ease the
suspense and excitiment of finding
out show the country went" with an
abundance of merry-making and jol-
lifcation.
The boys have leased Western
Union wire and will receive the state
and national election returns at their
hall while the county returns will be
received by telephone. The Knights
Of Pythias hall which adjoins the Leg
ion rooms has been rented and here
the Legion will give a dance. AS the
election returns come in they will be
bulletined on blackboard in the Leg
ion hall and announced to the dancers
in the X. of P. hall. For the enter
tainment of those who do not care to
dance there will be card tables and
other pastimes in the Legion hall,
while refreshments will be served by
the ladies Of the Legion auxiliary. In
order that the large crowd may be
accommodated without discomfort
several office rooms have been secured
and will be used for rest rooms fol
the ladies and smoking rooms for the
man.
Members of the committee in charge
Of the affair announce that they are
going to keep open all night or as
long as anybody wishes to stay. The
dance will be kept going until the
dancers are tired and the posting OF
returns will be continued throughout
the night. It is expected that the
national returns from the east will
begin coming in about 8 o'clock but il
will probably be midnight before any
total county returns will be received
except from the smaller precincts.
To defray the expenses of the leasec
wire and entertainment the Legior
will make charge of $1.50 per mar
or couple while unattended ladies vii
be admitted for fifty cents.

GETTING READY FOR THE
RED CROSS ROLL CALL
Richard Cadbury will Head the Cam
paign for Membership in This
District

Richard Cadbury, Jr., of Yakima,
has been appointed fourth roll call
chairman for the local chapter of the
American Red Cross, according to an
nouncement just made by the organl-
zation. The roll call will run between
the dates of November 11th and 25th,
the minimum goal set by the local
chapter being membership of $4,000.
"The roll call is neither drive nor
campaign" explained Mr.. Cadbury'
after accepting the position as chair
man. at merely is an effort by the
organization to make payment OF dues
by members simple matter, and to
offer the opportunity for persons not
now members to enroll.
1.-THE local goal should be compara-
lively easy, and we should go con-
siderably beyond it. 1t represents only
few more members than are now en-
rolled, and greatly less than the. war
time membership. Half of every dol
lar secured stays at home to fight OIL
sease, to teach emergency aid, to save
babies and guard family health. Inc
record of the Red Cross during tne
last two years shows clearly its grea'
value as peace-time relief organlza

divisions is less than four per cent o.

SAYS IT MEANS
PAVED ROADS
Automobile Man Says Benton
County Will be Greatly Ben
efitted by Carlyon Bill.

j. C. Speck, of the Speck Buick
company, has prepared the following
interesting statement on the Carlyon
bill which will appear on the general
election ballot as Referendum No. 1:
"Do you realize how important it
is to you, as taxpayers, to give your
hearty support to Referendum No. L
the Good Roads Bill-because of the
great, permanent benefits it will con-
fer upon Benton County, without In
creasing your taxes on real or personal
property, or increasing automobile IL
censes?
"Here are, few of the reasons why
every taxpayer in Benton County
should support this constructive bill
at the polls November second:
81. Under the provisions of Ref
erendum No. I, As miles of the En-
pire Highway WILL BE PAVED IN
BENTON COUNTY, from Grandview
to Kennewick..
"2. This As miles of paved high
way in Benton County will cost ST.
100000, and will be completed within
period of six years with funds pro-
vided entirely by this bill.
"3. Based on 1919 payments, Ben.
ton County annually pays into the
Motor Vehicle License fund $2,737
more than she secures back from this
fund for maintenance. In other words
Benton County has available from this
fund annually for construction pur'
poses, $2,737.
az. With this amount of money
available annually from the Motor
License Fund, it would take Bentor
County 45O years to complete the
same mileage of paved highways a.
will be built in six years under Ref
erendum No. 1.
a5. This as miles of paving can bt
secured to Benton County under Ref
erendum No. / without increasing tn
taxes or automobile license fees, b!
bonding the present Motor Licens'
fees as provided in this bill.
"6. Referendum No. / removes tn
| entire cost of paving connected
statewide system of trunk. line high
WAYS squarely from the shoulders o
the taxpayers of the state. 1t will
| provide employment for thousands o
men and add tens of millions OF dol
lars to the value of the farming prop
erty of the state, 80 per cent OF tn
entire cost of paving the highway
nroyided for in Referendum No. will
go to labor"

NOT ALL FLOWER CROWNED
Ornaments of Brides Vary in Different
Countries-German Wreaths
Mostly in Myrtle.

The custom of crowning the bride
with a wreath of some kind is OBJ
served in nearly all parts of the world,
the usage varying but little, even
though there are few other common
customs because of variation of ideals
and degrees of civilization. Where
flowers are readily obtainable, flowers
are used for this purpose, but quite
a variety of flowers are used, the
choice being dependent on what the
particular nation regards as most SYM
bolic of the renewing life and fruit
fulness of spring.
England, France and America find
orange blossoms the ideal crown for
their brides, while pink carnations and
red roses deck the brides of Spain
The bridal wreath in the Ionian isles
is made from vine leaves. In Germany
the wreaths are of myrtle, though in
the Black forest hawthorn is used,
and in Bohemia rosemary is the IA
vorite. In Pesth ribbon and artificial
flowers are blended in a gay mass.
Switzerland makes its bridal wreaths
Of white roses.
A few nations use crowns rather
than wreaths, and the Norwegian,
Swedish and Serbian crowns of silver
are sometimes very handsome and
even beautiful. In Bavaria and Silesia
there may be seen bridal crowns OF
fine wire, gold, glass beads and tinsel
while in Athens fine filigree work is
