FLU EPIDEMIC
CHECKEDSAYS
DIR. SPAULDING
While Peak of Disease Will
Probably be Reached First
of Week, Spread of Influ-
enza is Under Control.

The peak of the influenza epi-
demic will not be reached until the
first of the week, according to DR..
L. G.. Spaulding, county health Of
ficer. However, there has been lit
tie pneumonia and no fatalities,
and the disease is well under con-
troll here now.
The health of the school child
rem is excellent, reports the county
health officer, there being only an
absence of Is per cent, which is
remarkably low for this season Of
the year. The grade schools are
visited every morning by DR..
Spaulding and all children, who are
not entirely up to health standards
required by the health officer, are
sent home. Re-admittance is not
permitted until a certificate has
been given. The cooperation of
the parents has been splendid, ac-
cording to DR.. Spaulding, and is
to a large extent responsible for
the success of the present manner
of maintaining a high standard OF
health in the local schools. Dis
missal of high school students is
left more to their personal dis
cretion and also to the teacher.

WEEKS
XMAS HOLIDAY
FOR CHILDREN
Vacation Period of the Local
Schools Extended to Jan. z
Because of Influenza Epi
demic, according to Hodge.

Two weeks Christmas vacation
has been scheduled by the local
schools for this year, according to
Superintendent Hodge. School will
close Friday, December 81, and
will reopen Monday, January z.
eThe vacation has been extend
ed this year because of the influ-
enza epidemic" Mr.. Hodge stated.
"While the general health of the
schools has been excellent due to
preventive measures, and while
health conditions could probably be
controlled if the children were in
school, the Christmas vacation pc
riod permits the children to con-
tact the disease, due to their play
with one another and hence the
vacation period has been lengthen-
ed in order that the disease may
run its course and that the health
of the children may be good when
they return to school"
The grade school operetta, which
had been planned for Friday af-
ternoon of this week at the Liber-
ty Theatre, has been postponed
until some time in January due to
sickness and death in Prosser of
the father of Miss Brainerd, who
was coaching the play.

3-Rivers Will Pack
But Not Sell Apples

The warehouse, which the 3-Riv-
ers Service corporation recently
purchased and which they will oc-
cupy january 1, will be used dur
ing the apple packing season for
commercial packing and for dry
storage according to a decision ar
rived at Monday evening at di-
rector's meeting. However, the or
ganization will do packing only
and will have nothing to do with
the marketing of the apples which
it packs.
IA stock of fertilizers has been
put in for the growers and the as
sociation will probably make its
own strawberry crates this year.
M. N. Hudnall was reelected
president of the 3-Rivers Growers
association; George Sellick, seere-
tary; j. w. Vickers was elected
vice president.

CREWS HERE i
MAKE MAPS
OF DISTRICT
Will Extend Topography
Of Irrigable Area of Hi
Line Ditch rs Feet in
Elevation for u. S. r. S.

Tive Reclamation Service crews
are here extending the topograph-
ic maps of the Kennewick Irriga-
ton district about 75 feet in ele-
walton. The maps made in 1917 by
the Service indicated the irrigable
area 675 feet above the sea level.
The present maps will show the
irrigable area with a 75-foot in
crease in elevation.
Two men from the department
of soil and economics of the Rec
lamation service will arrive next
week to make a soil survey of the
area.
The crews, which are composed
of ten men, work under the direct
supervision Of w. L. Rowe Of the
Yakima office. The maps, how
ever, are being made under the
direction of and for the infornla-
ton of the Denver office. Glenn
Mitchell, former Kennewick resi-
dent, heads one crew and II. G.
Mcdowell heads the other. Mr..
Mitchell estimates that the work
will take approximately a month
to complete.
These maps will indicate the pos
sibility of increasing the irrigable
area under the new High Line by
an auxiliary pumping plant, should
occasion require in the future. The
area covered by the lift will COM
prise fractional portions of some
25 sections Of Horse Heaven land,
which, while good quality soil, is
considered locally too Steep in
most instances, for successful ir-
rigation.
No topographic maps of the
area have been made by the Recla-
nation Service since 1917, altho
some subdivisions were plated by
the state in 1921.

o see the work curtailed in any

way.
1t was recommended that the
pruning work to be done this year,
be widened to include young trees
as well as difficult classes Of fruit.
It is hoped that pruning tour for
the community may he worked
out on which several places will be
visited.
Pest and disease control center
ed around the wide spread of scale
and the control of this pest in the
lorchards owned by nonresident
owners. Mr.. Desgranges of the
Big Y felt that every grower Of
the community should consider
himself a committee of one to re-
port any orchards not being pro-
perly cared for, to the Horticul-
tural Inspection Service and that
every grower of the community,
back up this service in every way
they possibly could. 1t was also
suggested that greater publicity
be given to the absolute necessity
of more definite control of the scale
during the coming season. The
number of culls this year was very
materially increased, due to this
cause. One grower having as high
as 1920 culls, due largely to scale.
This probably is the foremost hor-
ticultural problem demanding inn
mediate attention in the connmun-
itv.

De PAUW PLANS
ENLARGED HALL
Public Speaking Building to
Be Changed.

BIZ Times Special
GREENCASTLE, Ind, Jan. 49,
A plan is under way at De Paw
University to extend the south
wall of the public speaking hall and
provide a modern, well-equipped
stage, workshop, storeroom and
other rooms for dramatic production
and general public speaking pur-
poses.
For some years tn eonly audito-
rum and stage available for dra-
matte production and public speak
ing has been the old Academy as
sembly room, in West College build
ing, the first building on the cam
puS, now about ninety years old.
Present stage and seating facilities
are inadequate and improvement of
these premises is impossible. About
two years ago the university pur-
chased the Locust st. church prop
cry and allocated 1t to the use of
the public speaking and drama de-
partinent. Only a few alterations
were made, with small sum of
money from an overtaXed treasury.
With the relatively small outlay
Of not more than $4,000 an attrac-
tive auditorium can be had worth
many times that amount. The board
of trustees has authorized H. B.
Cough, head of the department, to
raise the sum from former students
and friends Of the department.

will be arraigned in Bartholomew
Circuit Court here Saturday and

The husband, Clarence Saylor, 81,

Two sons of the couple, 5 and z,
are being cared for at the county
Jail here, where the mother Is a
prisoner. There was no one at the
