HANKS HERE

Rev. John Hanks was in kenne-
wick the last of the week, in the
interest of his campaign for con-
gress, opposing ]. L. Summers,
of Walla Walla. Mr.. Hanks feels
that his knowledge of irrigation
matters gained from his long resi-
dence in the Ellensburg country,
will make him of more value to
the people of this section than DR..
Summers, whose hobby is wheat
farming. Mr.. Hanks is finding
some warm support in this district
he claims, and he is making an
intensive campaign among the
voters, many of whom, by the
way, will not be entitled to vote
unless they soon get their names
ON the registration books.

SWIM MEET rs
COMINGEVENT
FOR KIDDIES
Large Number of Children
Turn Out for Swimming
Lessons Given at Duffy
PooI-JuIy % to be Red
Letter Day.

Sixty-seven children were on
hand last Saturday for the first
swimming lessons given by Miss
Hudnall, director of the Kenne-
wick playfield. OF this number
80 were beginners who could not
swim, 16 were Intermediates who
could swim but little, and 10 were
advanced swimmers. The kiddies
ranged in size from four-year-old
Virginia Smith to the advanced
pupils of fourteen and fifteen.
At the Duffy pool Saturday the
novices who could not swim were
taught how to breathe when in
the water, how to use the feet and
hands when swimming, and other
elementary principles. The more
proficient swimmers were given
detailed instructions on the correct
use of the side stroke, and the
advanced swimmers are given
lessons in diving and life saving.
The life saving lessons consisted
of practice at liftefng weights
from the bottom Of the pool
breaking of the wrist grip and Of
the front and back strangle holts.
The lessons were greatly en-
joyed by all the participants and
the director was kept more than
busy explaining, instructing and
demonstrating. Beginners ranged
from four to eleven years in age,
the Intermediates from eight to
fourteen, and the advanced form
ten to fourteen. Swimming les-
sons will be given each Saturday
afternoon.
A water meet to be held at the
pool Saturday, July %, is occupy
ing the center Of interest at the
playfield this week. About dOz-
en- different events have been ar
ranged for each class Of swim
mers. These evnts include q 30
yard dash, fancy and distance div
ing, shoe relay, candle race, old
clothes race, water polo, water
treading, floating. etc.
AS the interest in swimming has
been very high Miss Hudnall has
been giving special lessons to all
those who were particularly anx-
ious to learn to swim. These les
sons are being given free and have
been a big help to the pupils.
The extremely hot weather Of
the last few days has tended to
slightly reduce the attendance at
the playfield this week, but there
has been an average of 80 pres
ent each afternoon 50 far. Last
weeks attendance averaged 80.

MORE MONEY
ON DEPOSIT
Local People Have Over Half
a Million Dollars Subject to
Check, and More Coming
Gain is Over $1OS,OOO for
first Six Months.

Publication Of the quart ,rly
bank statement is made this week,
showing the financial condition Of
the bank at the close Of business
the first of the month. Comment
ing upon the statement, e. G.
Tweet, cashier, calls attention to
the fact that this statement indi-
Gates a satisfactory Improvement
in the financial condition Of the
district this year.
"This statement shows that there
was about sos, 900 more on de-
posit the first Of the month IN
the local bank than there was q
year ago. While we al know that
last year was nothing to brag
about, this years report looks
very fine, considering the fact
that no small part Of the seasons
returns are still to be received by
the growers. While one Of the
shipping concerns has already
made returns for part of the cher
ry crop, the other agency has dis
bursed. practically none Of its re-
ceipts from this source. Evan at
that, the close Of business tonight
showed an increase Of more than
twenty, thousand dollars more than
is shown on the statement Of the
first Of the month.
while we look for nothing in
the way of boom year." Mr..
Tweet continued, nevertheless this
year will see a larger number than
ever before, cleaning up their in
debtednesses and getting back on
