FRUIT BLOSSOMS FlIRT
WITH JACK FROST

Apricots are the size of peas; peach
es are forming; cherries and plums
have been in bloom since last Sunday;
pears are just coming iuto full bloom
and from all appearances the apple
blossoms will be out not later than
April LIST. This is the condition of the
prospective fruit crop at White Bluffs.
Yes, it is pretty early--about two
weeks ahead of last year-but il the
frost does not get us we are in for an
other big crop, as the trees are all
heavily loaded with buds. While Ken
newick growers have had to start their
orchard heaters twelve nights so far
this spring. the temperature here, up
until Wednesday night. had not gone
below 30 and generally several degrees
higher. Toward morning Thursday it
dropped below 80 and most of the soft
fruit and pear growers started their
heaters and they had to repeat on Fri
day morning. i
Weather forecasts for the night
are received every evening here at
the telephone exchange. and this
information is given to every fruit
grower who has requested to he
notified. The electric thermometer
on the John McFee place is set to
go off at 80 degrees above zero and
when this happens, which by the
way has only happened on Wedpes-
day and Thursday nights of this
week. Mr.. McFee calls the tele-
phone exchange and this informa-
ton is passed along to all growers
who have requested it. This SER
vice is given gratis by the telephone
company. All any grower has to
do is to ask to be notified.

A BIG PICTURE

"The Sea Hawk" one of the big
feature pictures starring Milton Stills,
with a supporting cast including Enid
Bennett, Lloyd Hughes, Wallace
Berry and 5000 players, Rafael Saba
tlnl's greatest romance, will be shown
in Liberty li.ll at White Bluffs next
Saturday and Sunday evening, March
9th and 28th. This is a big picture,
one that is not ordinarily shown in
the small towns and will undoubtedly
be greeted here by packed house, as
many local picture fans have been
looking forward to it with a great
deal of pleasure.
The story begins in England, where
Master Peter Godolphin is murdered
shortly after his sister Rosamund and
Sir Oliver Tressilian announce their
coming marriage. Oliver is accused
of the murder because a trail of blood
leads from the dead mans body to the
doorstep Of Penarrow Hall, divers
home. When Oliver submits to an
examination and proves his innocence
to the justice, Lionel, his brother,
fearing that he might be accused of
the murder, has Oliver kidnapped and
taken aboard ship about to sail for
Algiers, thus making it seem positive
that Oliver had fled from punishment
for his guilt.
AT sea the pirate ship on which
Oliver is held prisoner is attacked by
a Slilnish marauder and Oliver be-
comes galley slave for several years.
When a Moorish gallease attacks the
Spaniard Oliver frees himself from
his chains, helps the Moors to con-
quer the ship and is made comman-
der by the pasha. Later, hearing that
Rosamund is about to marry Lionel
Oliver goes to England and, aided by
his corsairs, takes Lionel and Rosa
mund from the altar and returns to
Algiers with them, bent on making
Lionel suffer for his intrigue and con-
vincing Rosamund of his own inno-
cence

this season. This was decided at the
Community Club meeting at the Drug
Store Tuesday evening attended by
good crowd, in which there were a
number of the players. M. M. Wiehl
was chosen as manager, with author
ity to look after all the business of
the club and to assemble the team.
About $40 was secured on sub
scription paper started a. the meeting
and a part of this was used as forfeit
money in. the league that is being
formed.
Three other matters were discussed
at the melting: the entertainment of
the Ellensburg delegation on its way
on April 5th to the celebration at Pas
co for the starting of the air mail SER
vice there the following day; the
question of purchasing some fire hose,
and Clean Up day in White Bluffs.
r. A.. English went to Elle,1sburg,
Wednesday morning, and upon his re-
turn, the plans for the entertainment
Of the delegation on April 5th will be
worked out and announcement made
next week.
The fire Tuesday brought the fact
of the lack of any kind of fire pro-
lection here sharply before TIE resi-
djats and after some discussion, it
was decided to bring the matter up
before the next meeting Of the stock
holders of the White Bluffs Water
Works, which will be held in the next
two weeks, to see if the surplus funds
of the water works company can be
used in the purchase OF some fire
hose. Every resident owner in town
is a stakeholder in the water COM
pany and it is thought maybe way
can be found to use the surplus fuads
for that purpose.
in town and it was decided to make
Saturday, April 3rd, Cleanup Day
when everybody is requested to come
out and help with this necessafylwork.
Not only will theoloeks of the place
bs improved, but it will tend to min
imize the DANCER from fire. In addi-
t /: to the residents, re Boy Scou s,
who have done SO many fine things,
will be asked to help.
It was brought out at the meeting
that there will be quite delegation

Celebration, including the White Bluffs
Band. The Phsco Chamber of Com
merce sent word. that Pasco is clad

good time.
A resolution was passed at the
meeting expressing the appreciation
Of the community to the town Of Han
ford for the loan Of their FIRE hose
and their help in holding in check
the fire Tuesday.

While here this week, Fred M.
We'll said that a proof of the fruit
label for the Priest Rapids valley,
that has been worked out by the
Milwaukee railroad, had been sent to
the Chicago Office OF the railroad for
approval and that he expects to have
favorable reply within week or
two. The railroad people are an
xious to have a uniform label
adopted for this district and ask
growers to hold off ordering labels
until word comes back from Chicago
