NORTHERN NOTES

Otto Bredvick, pioneer hunter and prospector, returned to Dawson last month by small boat, after a long sojourn in the Ross River country. MT. Bredvick left Dawson last June on a prospecting venture around the region of Pelly Banks, 26O miles above Selkirk During the course of the winter he prospected the country extensively and states that he made very promising gold dis covery which we'll awarded him for his year spent in the wilderness.
 F. B. Kennedy pioneer miner and prospector of Thistle Creek, who came to Dawson recently by small boat, xpects to set away on one Of the first steamers upstream for his mining property. The sourdough miner of Thistle Creek, who, by the way, has been located on that tribu- tary for the past 15 years, still holds great faith in the Thistle Creek dis trict, and he sincerely believes that he is eventually going to find the real thing.
 No more noble or more tragic event is known to man or nature than the supreme sacrifice of a mother for her child at childbirth. Such an event came to the home of Emil Hagen family last week in Cor dova, when Mrs Hagen, after a ten day heroic struggle with death, passed away that her child might live.

FUNDS FROM POPPY
SALE AID VETERANS
Legion Sponsors Sale of Memorial
Flower Two Days of
Next Week

Poppy Day in Kennewick will
be for two days, May 27-28. Many
people are unaware of what is be-
hind the poppy idea. It is because
that in the spring of 1919, amidst
the complete devastation, the pop
pies bloomed on the battlefields of
France where So many of our men
had fallen in battle, and that be-
cause of this the poppy has become
the memorial flower Of the Legion
and Auxiliary.
Over three and half million
poppies were made in 1925 by the
disabled veterans in the hospitals
in the various states to be sold ON
these memorial days and the men
are paid a small amount for their
work. The profits from the sale
amounted to more than half mil
lion dollars last year, all of which
was expended in service work for
the veterans and their families.

One of the fiercest wind storms
in the history of this country
struck this community last Mon
day and created considerable dam

worse off than we. Several big

others torn loose. Cantaloupes.
which were nicely up were ruined
and other small crops damaged in
localities where the soil was drift

CAR WRECK is
FATAL TO BOY
Truck Overturns Pinning
Driver with Post Thru
His Thigh

Fifteen year old Curtiss Owens,
son of Mrs. Minnie Owens Of
Horse Heaven, a sophomore in the
Kennewick high school, met with
an accident on the Umatilla-Ken-
newick road about three o'clock
Thursday, May II, which proved
fatal. The lad had just completed
his high school work for this year
and was returning to his home in
the hills alone, driving a Ford
truck. &
He left Kennewick about IL
o'clock and on the way out had
passed his brother who was COM
ing to town. When about four
miles out the machine became un-
manageable. Curtis, who retained
consciousness throughout was Of
the opinion he fell asleep for an
instant, losing control. He had
not been well for few days pre-
viously, and his school activities
were a tax on his vitality. The
car, Judging from its tracks, swung
to the lower side of the road and
rolled down a ten foot embank-
ment, pinning the driver under
meath with a two-by-four post
through his thigh. The boy was
unable to move or extricate HIM
self at first. Then he noticed a
wrench that had been flung from
the tool box Of the truck and lay
within reach. Grasping this he set
determinedly to work to take the
post loose from the truck so that
he might free himself. About this
time tourist passed on the road
above, but the motorists gazed un-
seeingly at the overturned truck
and gave no response TO the des-
perate hail of the imprisoned boy.
Curtiss continued his efforts with
the monkey wrench and succeeded
in loosening the two nuts and
Withdrawing the beam from his.
leg. Half an hour later, so it was
thought, another tourist came a.
long and stopped.
The injured boy was rushed to
town and placed under the care Of
physicians. Later he was taken to
the Lynn hospital, south of town,
where he remained until Monday
afternoon. DR.. A. G. Tullar says
that although the case was inn
mediately recognized as a very
serious one, the patient showed
considerable Improvement the first
three days. 1t was believed that
the Lad would recover. Monday
morning, however, found serious
complications developing, and it
seemed impossible to do anything.
His parents were sent for and the
boy removed to the hospital &C
Pasco. All efforts proved to be in
vain. A few hours later he passed
away. DR.. Tullar analizes the
caues Of death as follows: Septic
embolus Of femoral vein or a clot
OF blood from the wound becom-
ing loosened and re-lodging high
UP in abdominal veins. completely
shutting off return circulation Of
entire leg.
Funeral services were held We'd

the body being inferred in River

vived by his mother, Mrs. Minnie
Owens, four brothers and three
sisters.

PAYS FOR TIRES HE
TOOK 2 YEARS AGO
Alex Bier Gets Money from Thief
Who has Reformed -
Hadn't Missed 'em

Yes, folks, it's fact. Alex has
his money at last. He saws that
two years is just a little more
time than he extends ordinarily to
any except his best customers. but
that he doesn't mind the delay so
much when the purchaser is un-
known. On the whole the incident
seems to be nothing more or less
than an excerpt from one of Ho-
ratio Alger's boy stories.
OF course you know what we're
talking about That fellow who
passed through Kennewick a cou-
pie OF years ago and picked up two
automobile tires in Bier's shop on
Kennewick Ave while Alex wasn't
looking, then later got religion
and wrote asking for a bill and
that he be allowed to paw for
them. The peculiar part of the af-
fair was that the owner of the shon
had not known of the missinp
tires. The confession took him
utterly by surprise; however q
bill was forwarded saying that if
the reformed one felt he must nav
for them in order to ease his con.
science the money would be crate.
fully received.
Alex says he supposed this
would be the end of the matter
Religion, he thot, might be strono
enough to cause one to write fo7
bill, but that considerable more
force would be required 20 male
one fork. over the cash. Reformed
persons, too,. have a tendency to
be good one day and backslide the
next. Nevertheless, lately from
far off Indiana came a letter. the
money, and another apology fol
the long delay. The repented thie1
had kept his word and his determ.
ination to go straight.

SCHOOL EXERCISES
WE'LL ATTENDED
This Years Class Unique in Sew.
eral Respects-Bonnie Brown
Gets CIR. Cup

Valuable things, we hear, come
in small quantities and altho this
years class was the smallest to
graduate for some time, the Ken
newick high school seniors of '27
had commencement program last
Thursday evening. May II, that
was indeed excellent and which
drew a record attendance. The
large hall of the Methodist church
was filled to overflowing and many
turned away when informed that
all favorable seats were taken.
The invocation was given by the
Rev. F. N. Morton of the Method
ist church, Elsa Brogunier, salu-
tatorian, gave an interesting talk
on Education for Appreciation" /"
Lawrence Scott, also salutatorian,
spoke on "Vocations" while the
valedictory address was delivered
by Bonnie Brown. A speech by
u. S. Senator C. C. Dill was the
feature event of the evening. His
oration on, "After Graduation,
What?" was inspiring and GER
tainly enough to cause any of his
audience to determine to live woth-
lily and accomplish something
worthwhile.
The % graduates were present
ed with diplomas by Dale Smith
of the school board. Miss Bonnie
Brown, valedictorian this year, re-
ceived the scholarship cup given
by the Courier-Reporter to the
student having the highest aver
age for their four years of high
school work. A vocal solo by R.
W. Sprague concluded the pro-
gram which was well carried out
from start to finish.
The graduating class has been
characterized by several unusual
features. The same number finish
ed school as entered as freshmen
in 1923, rare happening for any
school as the classes usually de-
cline in number as they advance,
and has had but four changes in
personal during the last four
years. Many of the class of '27
entered the first grade together
here in 1915, it was the first class
to enter high. school during the
mid-year, and but five have main
tanned an aveage of above 80 per
cent for the four years work.

COOLING MOTH
COVER SPRAY
Hill Gives Spray Dates
Emphasizes Thoro-
ness in Work

The first cover spray should be
completed by the Oath of May,
says Dist. Horticultural Inspector
Hill. Four pounds to a 200 gallon
tank is sufficient amount of lead
The following dates are recon-
mended for the cover sprays for
the first brood Of worms. These
sprays should be completed by the
dates mentioned: First cover, May
oath; End, June 4th; 3rd, June Is;
4th June 25.
If thoro spraying has been done
this should complete your spray
ing for the season.
If anyone finds considerable a.
mount of worms July 1st in their
orchard, or if anybody has left
their calyx spray off, I would ad-
wise one cover spray for the sec-
ond brood near the goth or 25th
of July. In practically all orchards
this should complete the codling
moth sprays.
l wish to emphasize the import
ance of thoro spraying. Expert
ments show that the moths are
most active in the tops of the trees
and every effort should be made
to spray complete coverage on
the leaves and apples in the tops.
Thoroughness is the important
part of a spray program. IF the
lead isn't there for the worm you
won't get it. Our trees will take
from 10 to Is gallons of spray to
give a complete coverage.- This
means that you will only get 15
to 20 trees from 200 gallon tank.
Many growers are only putting on
three to five gallons of spray,
which is only one-half enough lead
to the tree and in most cases less
than one half enough.

side to furnish winners with eve

selves to be good losers by delight
fully entertaining the Kennewick
gang in the Christian church at

of readings, music and stunts. A

COMING BACK

The grass market is finally look
ing up again, according to word
received this afternoon from the
3-Rivers association. They could
have sold quite a quantity at a
fair price today, but there was no
stock on hand. Prospects indicate
still further rise in the price
within the next few days and it is
possible the growers will be asked
to start cutting again.

HULET WORKS
UNIQUE PLAN
Runs Free Employment
Agency as a Special
Service Feature

Original ideas are scarce these
days, it's true, but when it comes
to doing something no one else
cares to attempt, Hulet's Grocery
certainly has an edge on every
other business firm in this terri
tory, for they conduct free place
ment bureau, which the public is
invited to use. Almost everyone
would suppose it nothing more
than lot Of extra trouble for no.
thing, efficiency experts will pro-
bably gasp with horror at the mere
idea, but Walt Hulet doesn't mind.
He says that finding jobs for
men and finding men for people
who have work to be done is a
pleasant undertaking tho renum-
GRAFTON for such work is lacking.
"How did you ever happen to
conceive of such an unusual and
incongruous thing for a grocery
merchant to dot" he was asked.
WELL" answered Walt, "you
will notice that there is not an
other employment agency in town,
free or otherwise. Of course it
really is a service more suited to
the Commercial club and suppose
the club would do it if they had a
full. time secretary. However, it
doesn't take as much time as you
might think. A telephone call now
and then, few minutes spent ev-
cry day writing down the names
and addresses of applicants. There
is quite lot of satisfaction, too,
in knowing that you have been of
service to some one."
It was admitted that one might
derive a certain amount of pleas
ure from doing a good turn for
others occasionally, but the thot
persisted that after a time it would
become tiresome.
Continued Mr.. Hulet: "This en-
ployment service of ours gives
rural customers an even break
with those who live in town. Here
we are giving four deliveries each
day to everyone within the city
limits, saving lot of time for peo-
pie who would otherwise have to
come down town after them. If a
farmer needs man to cut aspar-
agus all he has to do is to call us.
Should he have to make trip to
town for the purpose, and after he
got here walk up and down the
streets asking every man he saw
standing around idle, much time
would certainly be lost. Last year
we placed about $50 persons seek
ing employment. AS times in order
to fill some special position we
have used our regular weekly ad-
vertising space for the purpose.
Haven't kept track of the positions
filled this year, but we get calls OF
various kinds every one in awhile" !"

and some not so, stunts of various

of getting behind the Boy Scouts

evening which was deferred for
final action until the next regular
