SCARLET FEVER is
UNDER CONTROL
All Cases so Far are of Light Form
No Need to Close Schools
Says Spaulding

The scarlet fever epidemic is now
under control in this section, accord
ing to County Health Officer l.. G..
Spaulding. No closifg of the schools
will be necessary, especially as the
pupils are having four-day holiday
on account of the teachers institute
being held in Yakima this week end.
However, each child will be ex-
amined Monday and all suspicious
cases will be excluded from the rooms
until all danger Of contagion is
passed.
There are about fifteen cases Of
record, and all are well on the road
to recovery, the disease taking a
very light form. Strict quarantine
is held necessary as an epidemic of
this sort usually increases in inten-
sity and every precaution is being
taken to prevent its spread.

FRUIT GROWERS
KICK ON GRADES
Inspectors Present at Meet
ing Of Apple Men -
Want Better Service

Local, county and state heads OF
the fruit inspection service were
called to Kennewick last Friday
night, to appear before local apple
growers and dealers, as the result of
an unusually large amount of fruit
being lowered in grade.
As result of the meeting it is
likely that an additional Inspector
will be hired for this district another
year.
The principal complaints were that
the inspection of the packing plants
were not frequent enough to suit
owing to the fact that but one in
spector was on the job and he was
kept busy most of the time certifying
carload shipments and could not find
the time to make warehouse and
packing inspection.
That each packing shed have in
spection at least every forty-eight
hours to prevent a lot of fruit being
put up under wrong grades, was the
contention of the packers. After the
fruit has been wrapped and put in
the boxes the cost of repacking is
more than the cost of the lowering
of grades, it was explained.
Inspector Harry Linn, who has
been on the job locally, got around
to the packing sheds last week and
in each place turned down much fruit.
Complaints filed with County Inspect
or Hill at Prosser brought him and
State Inspector Griner to Kennewick
to interview the local fruit men. No
complaint was made as to the ruling
other than the fact that more fire.
quent inspection at the sheds would
have prevented so much fruit being
lowered in grade.

OUR STORES PLAY
BIG PART IN FUTURE
Merchants Spend Time and Money
to Bring Newest Creations, In
ventions, for Your Approval

Have you ever noticed what large
part of Kennewick's downtown or
neighborhood stores play in your ev-
eryday life? Although you may never
have thot of the store in this con-
nection, yet when brot to your atten-
tion the close relationship is obvious.
The merchant, to be sure, is not a
social secretary, yet ask a woman
where she saw so-and-so and she will
invariably say at such-and-such a
store. Shoppers, urban or rural, ex-
pect to encounter their friends in
stores they visit. Shopping lowers
all class bars.
There is another light in which
the merchant is seldom seen tho al
ways present and that is as the pa
tron of all progress, art, comfort and
invention. He is the first to bring to
us the invention, the newest creation
in art, the latest appliance or COM
modify for our comfort, aid or amuse-
ment. The wonders that he brings us
are not less amazing and dazzling
than those collected from the four
corners of the world by the merchant
ships of medieval times. Even today
how often is the modern store seen
as fairyland and palace Of dream
things.
The wags and wits have discovered
distinction between the definitions
of buying" and shopping, but no
such distinction is recognized by the
merchants themselves. An antiquated
and now discredited business motto
was snake a sale before the custom
er leaves the store" Today business
men do not jam their merchandise
down your throat and drag your mon-
eySout of your pockets. They welcome
you into their places of business
either as 'fbuyers" or shoppers"
They show what they have for sale
and they leave the sale to the Gus
toner. They encourage shoppers"
because every shopper is after all,
a buyer.
Your physician recommends ply
sical examination for every member
of the family at stated intervals;
dentists urge regular examination
and cleaning of the teeth; the piano
and the automobile are overhauled
once year. Why not periodic tour
of the hometown stores as an eff
cient and effective way of diagnos-
ing the needs of the house and fam
ily.

ARMISTICE DAY
TO BE HOLIDAY
Gov. Hartley Issues Procla-
nation Urging People to
Think on War Lessons

Urging that the people take brief
respite from their daily labors and
employ themselves in the contempla-
tion Of the lessons taught by the
world war, Governor Hartley has is
sued a proclamation declaring Armis-
tice Day, November II, a holiday.
The governors proclamation follows:
November II, 1918, will be MEM
orable thruout the ages. It was on
that. day that millions of men under
arms ceased firing and the greatest
conflict in human history was at an
end.
$50 it is November II has come to
be known as Armistice Day and OBJ
served as a holiday thruout most
of the civilized globe. It is well that
it should be commemorated; that
the people take brief respite from
their daily labors and give themselves
to thotful contemplation of the les
sons taught by the great war.
Therefore, I, Roland II. Hartley,
governor of the state of Washington,
by virtue of the authority in me vest
ed, do hereby proclaim Wednesday,
November II, 1925, Armistice Day,
as a legal holiday and on this day
all public Offices will remain closed.
It is urged that so far as possible
business be suspended; that the peo-
pie desist from their customary pur-
suits and by appropriate ceremonies
and exercises reaffirm their faith in
God, humanity and country, not in a
spirit of exultation which extolls VIC
tory through bloodshed but in that
tolerant and sympathetic and under
standing among men, neighborliness
among communities, equality among
classes, friendship among nations and
peace and good will thruout the
earth"

WINTER COMES
In WITH STORM
Real Old-Fashioned Duster
Covers Region with Dirt
No Property Damage

After two months of perfect au-
tumn weather the winter season was
ushered in last Saturday by one of
the worst wind storms seen in this
district since the w. k. war. Dis
agreeable as it was. this particular
section did not suffer any real DAM
age, tho reports have been received
from other districts Of considerable
property damage.
Locally, the apples had been picked
and other outdoor harvesting work
was far enough along that no loss
was reported. In the Walla Walla
country much seeded wheat was
blown out, trees uprooted and roots
blown from buildings, and other dam
age reported. ..s-.
Several minor accidents were
caused as the result of the storm.
In the lower valley team was cleo
trocuted from fallen power wire. A
phone pole toppled over, dragging
with it several more. A car passing
at the time was struck by one of
them as it fell, throwing a small
boy passenger thru the windshield.
He was not seriously injured and
but. minor repairs were necessary to
the car.
The storm caused considerable
ladylike cussing, however, for the
dust blown into the houses was the
most experienced in several years.
Fall blowing in the hills gave the
wind burden that was sifted over
Saturday-cleaned homes and Sunday
was largely spent by the women-folk
with busters and brooms.
