MILLION DOLLARS DUE

In the midst Of an era OF selt-con-
graduation among motorists ana
good roads enthusiasts over the ear
" record of automobile license pay
ments the state treasurer has risen
to inject the unpleasant reminder
that, based on last years tigures'
there still is about million dollars
due from tardy car owners. AS mat
ter of fact Treasurer w. G. Potts
and License Director c. r. Mayberry
estimate half million dollar gam
this year so there sholud be outstand-
ing about S1,5OO,O0O for which early
payment has been asked. Because
winter conditions make travel harder
on the east side, residents OF tnat
district have been slower than west
ern Washington motorists IN paying
their 1926 license fees.

grown since that time. From a simple

Orchestra Engaged

Mrs. Rodgers tenth semi-annual
style show will be held at the Lib
erty theatre next Monday night. The
new spring styles in feminie wearing

picture part of the program has been
cut to single comedy, and the bal
ance of the show will be devoted to
the prancing of the models. Mann's

sic for the event and will also put on

TO MARK ADDED
FEDERAL ROADS
5 National Translate High
ways to Have Uniform
Markers This Season

Five federal highways crossing
Washington from east to west and
four running north and south are to
be marked by the state highway de-
partment with the new federal shield
and road number as soon as supplies
are received. The federal bureau of
roads aided Highway Engineer j. W..
Hoover in procuring recognition for
several extra state thorofares thar
were left off the original map.
The eastern division of the Inland
Empire highway that skirts the Ida
no border and the portion Of the
Olympia Peninsula from Port Ange-
les to Olympia along Hood Canal are
new roads running south.
Upon the showing that the North
Bank highway eventually will be ex-
tended from Maryhill to Kennewick
and Pasco, thence to Walla Walla
that road was added tho it parallels
Oregon's Columbia highway. The
Chinook Pass route when completed
will be part of another highway that
will have its termini at Aberdeen and
Hoquiam, Snoqualmie Pass being used
for transmountain travel on this
route until about % miles Of new
construction is finished. The Kelso-
to-the-Sea link OF the Ocean Beach
highway IS tied into the North Bank
highway.
The Pacific highway, the pacific
ocean shore line portion of the Olym-
pia highway together with the Mon
tesano- Raymond road and the Ocean
Beach highway and combination OF
roads between Oroville and Maryhill
furnish three other north and south
routes. From both Spokane and Walla

Entertainment Friday
Everybody Invited

will stage carnival tomorrow night
at the gymnasium. The purpose of
this carnival is to give every person
in town, young and old, in school and
out, chance to enjoy some real high

of booths prettily decorated for
games, a number of them for hot
dogs. candy, ice cream, pop, etc. A
beauty parlor is one of the main fea-
lures, where excellent work can be
done by high school talent.

queer entertainment will furnish
much curiosity for all.
Through the evening different
stunts will be pulled off from the
stage, such as the Coarse Girls
Dance" bull fight, and a boxing ex-
hibition between couple of our local
amateurs.
Everybody come and bring someone
with you. This isn't only for kids but
for everyone.

PARK
MOVE GROWING
Much Interest Shown in
Plan for Closed Ball Park
and Fair Grounds

Kennewick is due to have a new
ball park and athletic field. After
talking about the matter all winter,
the first step toward the accomplish
ment was talden at a meeting this
week when committee was selected
to go ahead with the work.
The local baseball diamond is not
suitable, for various reasons. The
football grounds have been but make
shift for the past few years. Under
the new plan an enclosed park, pro-
perly prepared will serve as a field
for baseball, kitty ball, and football
as well as a permanent home for the
annual fair.
BY the purchase Of fee acres just
west Of the high school, erecting =
high board fence, grandstand pro-
viding facilities for the fair, all of
these features can be obtained. Con-
cessions have been made in the mat
ter of the purchase Of the grounds,
and the committee will soon be out
for the purpose Of securing subscrip-
tions for the financing of the project.
It is estimated that the property can
be bought, and all the improvements
desired made at cost in the neigh
borhood of $4,000. Stock in the pro-
ject will be sold and an incorporated
company formed for the purpose OF
managing it.
The soliciting committee, headed by
Leon F. Semon, will consist. of Sup
erintendent Hodge, Bert Lloyd, A. F
Brown, HI. C. Schmidt and Emil Behc-
man will attend to the matter of fl
nancing. At the Commercial club lun-
cheon today the plan met with an
enthusiastic reception and it was
pointed out thatright now is the
most opportune time for acquiring
the property and making the improve
ments.
