&oA Paris -

Paris, Oct. 27.-After q few weeks
of Paris you get accustomed to start
ing up stairs to your office only to
find yourself in concierge's bed
room.
After few weeks you get used
to walking into any office building
only to find yourself intruding upon
the gray-haired concierge's lunch
hour.
After a few weeks you get used
to- anything.
You mis-; your modern Mushroom.
You miss your heat. You openly cuss
the telephones and you roar with
laughter the first time you ride in
Zone of those One-man elevators that
invariably trap you between floors.
You smile when you see advertise
ments telling You Of places in the
country that actually have electric
lights.
You utter maledictions when you
find the torres are closed on. Mon
days while the buildings are clean
ed, thus leaving you utterly help
less if ycu care to shop.
And then, quite suddenly, you be-
gin to grow accustomed to these
contrasts between Manhattan and
Europe. What's worse. you begin
: to like it. 4
You come, presumably, to "gay
Paree" and You find one Of the
smallest towns-in spirit, rather
than in population-that you have
ever lived in. All those qualities
of suburban life you have ever heard
about are. now ju-t around the cor
ner from you. :.
Perhaps it is true that the girls Of
Montmartre are the nudest. Per
haps II is true that you can't walk
block in certain centers without
being accostcd by q lady Of the old
Get .ofession. Perhaps the moral
standard is upside down As COM
pared to ours It may be this =
4 wicked city.
But two blocks from any point
sshereupon sou may find yourself ID
q cross-section. Of small town life.

PLAN TO BUY
FAIR GROUNDS
Committee Selects Loca-
tion on River Bank
Community Center

Arrangements are being made
this afternoon for the purhcase
of ten-acre tract on the river
front to be used for a fair grounds
and athletic field. The property
under consideration lies between
the highway bridge and the N. p.
railroad bridge across the Colum-
bia and contains about three acres
of trees. The remainder of the
land lies nicely overlooking the
river for baseball diamond, foot
ball field, and providing plenty of
space for the displays at the fairs.
The tentative lands include the
building of pavilion, possibly a
floating one, to be used for dane
es and entertainments of various
sorts, a boat house, the construc-
tion of a bathing beach, parking
the space among the trees and 9TH
erwise making the place into a
gathering place for the residents
of the two towns. Counting on
the elimination in the near future
of the tolls on the bridge, such a
location should prove ideal from
the viewpoint of patronage from
the two towns.
Contemplating turning the place
into an up-to-date summer resort,
it should within comparatively
short time, be more than self sup
porting and provide for such rec
reation as the people, old and
young, of the two communities,
desire.
The property which the asso-
citation is planning to purchase is
far too small to allow any thots
of installing golf course, as has
been rumored.
To put the arrangements of the
fair committee upon a more busi-
nesslike basis, it is likely that the
fair association will take out in
corporation papers and solicit the
sale of stock, the whole to remain.
nevertheless as community en-
terprise. With a comparatively
small down payment, the associa-
tion will have funds with which to
make the most urgent improve
ments and the countryside be pro-
vided with a permanent home.
There will be no change made in
the arrangements for this years
fair, however. The displays will
be made in the store windows and
the program of sports and the big
carnival will be held as originally
planned. By next year it is hoped
that the grounds will be in shape
to stage the holiday event of the
year in the pleasant surroundings
at the rivers edge.

ROYAL NEIGHBORS EN-
TERRAIN THE WOODMEN

The members of the Royal
Neighbors entertained the MEM
bers of the Modern Woodman in
their new quarters in the Masonic
hall Thursday evening. The losing
side in their recent contest, with
Mrs. Rose Richter, captain, served
banquet in the dining room and
afterwards all enjoyed a social
evening. The event was called a
housewarming and the weather
man responded nobly, but it takes
more than a little heat to stop the
gang. The party was proceeded by
a short business meeting at the
close of which Miss Elna Newkirk
was the recipient of a miscellan-
eous shower.

MERCY BUYS
SHOW HOUSE
Theatre Building Taken
Over by Big Movie
Corporation

The Liberty theatre building IN
Kennewick was sold this week to
Frederick Mercy, who will take
possession September first. Mr.
Mercy is district manager for the
North American Theatre corpora
tion one of the largest theatre
.hains in the United States. He
now operates theatres in Yakima,
Walla Walla and Sunnyside and
the plans include acquiring control
of the Kennewick and Pasco shows.
Immediately after taking pos
session of the building, the show
will be closed for a week or so to
permit Of extensive alterations.
The plans include changing the
lobby. a new box office, new car
peted foyer, new interior decora-
tions, removal of the present bal
cony and the installation Of addi-
tional seats on the lower floor,
a new organ. curtain and scenery.
The new improvements will have
the Egyptian motifs and will make
the Kennewick show house one Of
the most attractive in the valley.
A fine large pipe organ will be
installed and the new management
will feature their musical pro-
grams. No announcement has yet
been made as to the appointment
of a manager for the new place,
but the Mercy circuit has made an
enviable record for the courtesy
and ability of their employees.
Mr.. Mattecheck, who has leased
the building for years, and who
has lately acquired a small chain
of theatres on the coast, will leave
today to look up a location for
another theatre nearer his present
holdings.
In the opinion Of prominent cit
liens, the purchase Of the Liberty
theatre building and the listing Of
Kennewick on the circuit of this
large corporation, indicates that
the community has definitely been
accepted as a live, growing town
with unusual prospects for devel-
opment.

Horse Heaven Harvesting
Starts - Expect Million
Bushel Crop

Wheat farmers in this section
of the valley and in the tribu-
tary country will harvest mill
lion bushels of first class milling
product. according to estimates
now being made by those who have
kept in close touch with the grow
ing conditions in this section.
Threshing has begun both in the
Horse Heaven and the Rattlesnake
districts. In Horse Heaven, Leroy
Kratzer, is the farthest along with
the work, while several others
are starting today and tomorrow.
According to these men the wheat
viii run from 20 to % bushels per
acre for the entire district. which.
with the low production costs
which prevail here, makes this sec
ton one of the best this year in
point of profit for the growers.
Voluteer fields are making from
9 to Is bushels to the acre. One
field has reported an eleven bu-
shel yield for the second year vol
unteer.

ORGANIZE FOR
DAIRY CREDIT
Cow Owners to Receive
Help in Financing
Their Stock

The Kennewick- -Richland Cow
Owners association which was born
the 24th day of June, 1927. ex-
presses the purpose of it's exist
ance as follows:
The purpose of the organiza-
tion will be to promote in every
way possible the securing of more
and better cows; and better ami
mails for breeding purposes, for
service in the communities named.
10 find ways and means to finance
the purchase of cows and bulls;
and to do everything possible to
raise butter fat production: to
make profitable, herds that are not
now paying, and to gradually
raise the standard of efficiency
by eliminating scrub cattle and
replacing them by the process of
evolution or otherwise with stock
of better blood; and always with
the idea of increasing numbers
until the hay and feed production,
for their keep, has been reached
in the community, to the end at
least that all hay may be used and
little, if any, be available for
shipping
Kennewick and Richland are
working together in this organi-
zation and a continued interest
has been shown from the begin-
ming.
At the last meeting of the di-
rectors the incorporators for an
Agricultural Credit Corporation
were named and they were given
full power and authority to or
ganize the same. This will be or
ganized under the laws of the
State of Washington, with a cap
ital stock of 100000. and when
organized will permit the corpor-
alton to make loans not only as
suggested above, but on all live
stock, and also upon warehouse re-
ceipts representing non-perishable
commodities, and up to 100000,
at about 6 per cent interest.
During the first week in August
(the date has not been set) a
joint meeting of all farmers and
those interested in the commune
ty will be held at Richlahd park,
at which meeting the subscription
to stock will be started. This meet
ing is to be combined with the an
nual grange picnic, and will be
addressed by r. E. Shepherd, pres
ident of the Federal Land Bank
of Spokane, and many other pro-
minent persons. This meeting will
probably be the most important
ever held in Benton county, from
the interest shown.
