TIE CATS PAlANAs TIE ! CATS PAJAMAs

Hailed by critics as the ideal Betty Bronson picture" Paramount's "The Cats Pajamas," which comes to the Liberty theatre tonight, might also be called the ideal Richardo Cortez pic ture.
 Never has this popular young actor appeared to better advantage than in this film, in which he is co-starred with Miss Bronson. It is delightful tale of love, humor and adventure which was especially written for the screen by Ernest Vajda
 "The Cats Pajamas", from the time it's intriguing title Is thrown on the screen, until the last flicker showing Miss Bronson's delightful cat fading into the distance with brood of kit tens, Is as good entertainment as any thing shown in recent months. It has all the elements movie-goers like love, romance, adventure, thrills, mag nificent and picturesque settings, pa thos, and-the wonderful element of dreams come true" /.
 The supporting cast includes that grand old man, Theodore Rberts, and the charming lily of France, Arlette director.

tionally good. The program as pub

man of the baby clinic recentIv
held. and all who helped at the
clinic. The club also desires to

GOTTA HAVE MORE
QUOTA INCREASED
Red Cross Fund for Flood Suf-
ferers not Filled Yet
Ask for Dollar

The quota assigned to Kenne-
wick for the Mississippi flood re-
lief fund has been reached, ac-
cording to Postmaster G. III.
Shanafelt this week. But he has
also made the announcement that
the quota was allotted upon basis
of five million dollar fund, which
has since been doubled. Therefore,
the Kennewick quota, instead of
being S170. is now three hundred
and forty. A generous response
has been made by the various or
ganizations of town, and it is sug-
gested that each head of family
contribute one dollar toward the
fund.
If the money continues to come
in this quota can be reached. Sew
eral communities in the Yakima
valley have already gone over the
top with their share, and Kenne-
wick should be equally prompt. A
dollar from each family will not
be a great demand and the need
of the flood stricken people is
great.

FIRST BERRIES
RIPE TUESDAY
Burlap Covering Saves
Crop and Aids in De-
velopment of Fruit

The first ripe Strawberries Of
the season were brought into this
office on Tuesday of this week by
B. E. PEBBLES of Section Seven.
While he has not yet picked enough
to make a shipment, he anticipates
having enough to market early
next week. So far as we have been
able to learn there have been no
other ripe berries found in other
patches yet. The few that were on
display in the Courier-Reporter
window were of the Clark Seed
ling variety and of good size
for the first of the season, and
were nicely colored.
Mr.. PEBBLES patch contains a.
bout an acre and he expects to
harvest nearly hundred per cent
crop. The plants are but one year
old, having been set out last year,
but he attributes much of his ap-
parent success to the fact that he
protected his plants during the
freeze with burlap covering.
The covering was made from
sacks which were ripped open on
one side and the bottom and then
spread the original length Of the
sacks cross-wise of the row of ber-
ries. These sacks were sewed to-
gether to make long strips, which
were wound on drum mounted
on cart wheels. He states that two
men can cover or uncover an acre
of berries in about an hour. New
burlap to cover an acre of berries
would cost about S160. according
to Mr.. PEBBLES.
Last year the experiment sta
tion at Prosser carried on simi-
lar experiment with new burlap.
This information was secured by
the 3-Rivers association and was
published in this paper last spring.
Mr.. PEBBLES took this method and
gave it a very practical applica-
tion, DUNG one of the most de-
structive freezes ever experienced
in this section, using old sacks
which saved buying high priced
burlap.
Mr.. Lampson is of the opinion
that there will be more berries
this year in spite of the freeze
than there were last year owing
to the increased acreage.

TOM SOTH BATTLES
FOR HIGH HONORS
Journalism Student Candidate for
Editorial Position on the
University Annual

Have the native sons of Kenne-
wick political ability? They have.
Of course we have strongly before
us the glowing example of the
governors ex-secretary who seems
to have come out on the top side
through some mighty stormy bat
ties; however, the latest person
from here to gain notoriety by
way of the ballot box is none 9TH
er than our old friend Tom Soth.
Tom is enrolled in the journal
ism school at the u. of w. where
a vicious battle has been raging
this week among a committee OF
journalists empowered to select
an editor for the "Tyee", the un-
iversity annual. Miss Maxine Blake
and Tom have been the outstand-
ing candidates. So much vigorous
feeling has been expressed in the
committee, so many hard words,
and So much delay that the whole
university and particularly the
journalism school has been kept
in a Juror of excitement.
The consistent failure of the
committee to agree whether they
wanted Tom or Maxine to edit the
U's yearly picture book has caused
Dean Borah of the journalism
school to censor the budding in
tellectuals and advise them to
either come to a decision or give
up and let someone else do the
appointing.

Absolute Fairness To All
In order to maintain the strict
est secrecy as to the number of
subscriptions turned in by each
individual candidate during this,
the last week of the campaign, the
race is being brought to a close
under a sealed ballot box.
No subscriptions or votes what
ever are being accepted thru the
campaign department this week,
but instead, final collections are
being placed by the candidates
themselves, in the locked and seal
ed ballot box-located at the bank.
By so doing. no one, not even the
campaign manager, can possibly
know the voting strength of the
respective candidates, which pre-
cludes any possibility of favorit-
ism, and insures fairness to the
minutest degree.
Yesterday was a busy day at
campaign headquarters, practical
ly every candidate called at this
office and verified their vote rec
ords with those of the Courier-Re-
porter. The one or two candidates

1t has been suggested that now
is a wonderful time for local resi-
dents to do little cheap adver-
tising of the wonderful quality
of the Kennewick asparagus. With
the price of the local product,
many residents are shipping sam
pie crates of grass by mail to their
friends in various parts of the
country.
BY putting a couple Of layers
Of watersoaked blotters in the bot
tom of the crates and covering that
with waxed paper, it has been
found that the grass keeps in
splendid condition for a consider
able period. "Buy a box of grass

for the next week.

AND SO CY
IS TICKLED
Ford Truck Surprises Ev-
eryone by Pulling
Huge Load

Would you believe that little
OF Ford could drag a truck, five
and half ton trailer loaded with
eight additional tons, thru vacant
lots and rutty unsurfaced streets ?
No? A lot of others wouldn't
either, but it was accomplished
this morning, right here in Ken
newick.
The city fathers are moving the
Jail equipment to the new city hall
and wanted to move the steel cells
from the old building. Cutting out
a wall of the old jail building the
iron cage, consisting of six cells
and a corridor, was snaked thru
the opening, loaded onto the big
p. P. & l.. special trailer truck
and moved to the city hall.
The trailer itself weights five
and half tons, according to G..
S. Knowles, who had it built to
order. The Jail cells, made of steel
lattice, with built-in steel frame
cots, steel floors, and steel cor
ridor weighs between eight and
nine tons, according to Contractor
A. v. McReynolds, who has the
work in charge.
A Dodge truck hooked onto the
trailer this morning and had to
take a couple of starts to get the
empty vehicle over the little rise
in the curb. 1t was readily seen
that the Dodge would nver be able
to drag the thing loaded. So it
was decided to get the big county
tractor to furnish the power. Cy
Smith, more in the spirit of fun
than with any real hopes of pull
ing the load, asked to be allowed
to hook up to it with his Ford
service car. Much to his surprise
and that of everyone else for that
matter, they managed to get under
way and the steel Jail cells are
now settled in their new location.
The route was thru the vacant
lots back of the jail, over the rutty
cobble of Front street, back of
the O.-W. depot, thru the vacant
ioI OdCh up 20 heHHeWick street
and east to the new city hall. The
sandy lot had the Ford literally
sup in the air" for a bit, the front
wheels of the truck raising about
three feet. 1t finally settled down,
the hind wheels spun a bit and
they were again under way. Thir-
teen or fourteen tons is some drag
for any car.

Subscription Seekers are Hitting Fast Pace-Returns
In Sealed Ballot Box Now-Candidates Should

HELP YOUR FAVORTTE CANDIDATE NOW
ALL PRIZES AWARDED SATURDAY p M

With the announcement of the
judges, all prominent men of Ken
newick and vicinity, and the plac-
ing of the sealed ballot box in the
First National Bank of Kennewick
everything is in readiness for the
official close of the Courier-Re-
porter's great $4,000 prize cam
.paign. Candidates are striving to-
ward a whirlwind finish in the
competition and the intense inter-
est manifested on every hand by
friends of the candidates will like
ly prove that this final week will
be the banner period of the whole
competition.
The advisory Board is as fol
lows: C. A. Crawford, mayor of
Kennewick; John Dam, merchant
of Richland; E. G. Tweet, cashier
of the, First National Bank and
C. G. Williams, of the Farmers
Exchange.
Two or more of the above NAM
ed men will be asked to act as
judges.
Only a few more hours of the
Courier Reporters great gift shar-
ing campaign remain. Enthusiasm
is boundless. 1t will take a lot of
hard work for any candidate to
cinch his or her choice of the priz-
es before Saturday night at 10
o'clock.
The question now foremost in
everyone's mind is. "Who will be
the winner of the big prizes when
the judges announce their official
decision next Saturday night?" AS
the big automobiles and gold race
comes to a close all the candidates
are asking themselves "Will have
enough votes when the final count
is made to put me over the line,
winner of one of the big prizes %
Every hour of every day is
mighty important these last few
days of the campaign. In fact,
only few more hours are left
and every single minute of these
last fateful hours is vitality import
ant to the final success of the
candidates who are struggling vig-
orously for supremacy in the race
and no one candidate will admit
the possibility of, defeat, for every
one of these live wires is working
with might and main to be one of
the big victors in the campaign.
No one can deny that the race is a
mighty spirited one, and that is
the reason why the final hours are
crowded with intense excitement
and rivalry of the keenest kind.
These final days are seeing some
hot battles waged, for it is a case
of now or never. Every candidate
realizes that what is intended to
be done must be done between now
and 10 o'clock Saturday night
and time is slipping rapidly.
Several weeks of enthusiastic
work will eliminate Saturday mite
at 10 o'clock. The last hour is
drawing near. Every candidate is
working to get as many votes as
possible by Saturday night. Now
