THE SANITARIUM MATTER.

The campaign for selling stock for
the Sanitarium is still in progress and
the trustees met Monday and decided
to keep going until success is as
sured.
The statesmen have about eight
thousand dollars in sight in Leaven-
worth and there is hope of raising
this very materially, besides getting
considerable support from down the
valley. Twenty-Five per cent of the
money subscribed has been paid up.
The great advantage a good sanitar-
ium would be to the community
ought not be lost sight of for a mo-
ment and anyone who feels that he
or she can give it any financial sup
port ought to come forward and do
so voluntarily.

BRENDER
WOULD RUN
MOTOR FRT.
Makes Application Before Director
kuykendall at Wenatchee. Satur-
day-G. \. Protests.

World: William Brender appeared
before f. V. Kuykendall, director of
the state department of public works,
Saturday afternoon, at the CONNER
cial Club here to support his petition
for a certificate Of convenience and
necessity allowing him to operate 4
motor freight between Wenatchec
and Leavenworth. He was repre-
sented by Attorney ]. T. Lindley of
Leavenworth. The Great Northern
Railroad, represented by Attorney
Charles S. Albert of Spokane, appear
ed to protest against the issuance Of
such certificate. While admitting
that the service would be convenient.
the railroad contends that it is not
necessary.
One factor entering into the case is
the ability Of a motor freight to
make store door delivery, and TO de-
liver perishables more quickly than
they can be delivered by rail.
Witnesses for Mr.. Brender were
William Mcintosh of Leavenworth; F.
A. Constable of Leavenworth; and G.
Fl. Caldwell Of Leavenworth. Wit
nesses for the Great Northern were
J. c. Maher, general agent stationed
at Wenatchee; A. A. Piper, local
freight agent; and w H. Murtha,
Wenatchee trainmaster.
Question a Stickler.
Mr.. Brender asked Mr.. Kuykendall
if he could legally operate a motor
freight on special calls, not operating
as a stage line but as a transfer or
demand. Mr.. Kuykendall said that
that question often vexed the public
service commission. He said he
could give no opinion on that point:
and that the commission Lopes the
courts will decide that point in pend
ing cases.
Mr.. Brender's application for a
certificate was accompanied by affi-
davits to the effect that he was op-
Grating over this route in good faith
and giving satisfactory service on
January Is, 1921. If this can be
proved, he must according to the
state law be given a certificate.
His request for a certificate was
accompanied by a petition signed by
y business houses and residents Of
Leavenworth asking that such re
quest be granted.

Water Commissioner Ted Ogden and
a crew Of men are busy these days
placing the new 14-inch water main.
Most of the old pipe was uncovered
and the trench made ready for the
larger pipe before the flow of water
was interrupted, but on Wednesday
water was shut off for a time in order
to make the connection at the Hard
ing lane, but before the main work of
laying the new pipe was undertaken
it was decided to turn in water from
the Icicle irrigation ditch. The new
pipe will probably be in place within
a week and then the work Of bringing
in the 10-inch pipe from the Harding
lane via the Red bridge will be un-
dertaken in earnest.

JUNIOR SENIOR PICNIC.

Saturday, May 13, the Juniors of
the Leavenworth high school enter
tained the Seniors with a picnic at
Lake Wenatchee.
The picnic was a royal affair. At
s o'clock everyone was assembled in
front of the high school building, and
at $50 the cars started Nearly
everyone went in cars, but owing to
the scarcity of those vehicles, some
of the Juniors had to ride on truck.
However, they lidn't mind and every
one was in good spirits when they
reached the lake. The cars arrived
at the lake about 10 o'clock, but the
truck, with the occupants of a
"break- down" car, did not get there
until II.
Immediately after arriving at the
lake, the boats, which had been re-
served, were put to use, and all en-
joyed "bumpless" ride before din
ner.
Dinner was eaten in Cougar Inn.
and it was feast that gave many in
digestion for the following week. The
big Senior cake was the crowning
glory Of the feast. Mr.. Gardner, the
city baker, made it. 1t was a foot
and half in diameter and was dec
Grated with the Senior colors, red and
white.
After dinner the boats We're again
put to use. The launch was procured
and group of the teachers and pu-
pills went across Lake Wenatchee to
Hidden Lake, in the mountains. The
rest of the students rowed across and
climbed the mountains with some diff
fculty after their big dinner. The
rest of the afternoon was spent in
various ways, some stayed on the
lake while others went for car rides
Mr.. Simons took a car load to White
Forks, a ride which was enjoyed i'm
mensely
In the evening another meal was
partaken Of. but the picnickers were
unable to get away with the enor-
nous quantities of food the Juniors
had provided. All did well, however
At $50 the majority of cars start
ed for home, some of them having
left earlier But there were some
difficulties to overcome. Mr.. Simons
car had too heavy a load and could
not make the hill, so some of its oc-
cupants had to 90 on the trucks. All
went well after that, but we hear
that some Of the participants of the
Junior Senior picnic did not reach
home until late hour. This was due
to a delay caused by the changing OF
cars, which resulted in weinie roast
and midnight lunch under the stars
Nevertheless, everyone reached home
safely at some time or another, anC
declared that they had a wonderful
| time.
The Senior class wishes to take
this opportunity to express its thanks
and appreciation for the courtesy ren
dered them by the Juniors in taking
them to Lake Wenatchee. for the en-.
/ joyable time shown them, for the fre,
use of the boats, and last but not
least, for the wonderfully good eats
