YOUTH

VIEING with interest in the
Smith-Hoover campaign, is the
electian in which large and
promising field of candidates has
entered. 1t speakes well for the
community to have a number of
persons interested enough in civic
affairs to file, especially where
most of the offices are held with
out pay, as they are here.
A number of the candidates are
comparatively young men with
businesses of their own, who are
public spirited enough to wish to
serve Kennewick. Without excep-
tion, these young men are success
full in their business fields and
would bring to city offices the
same degree of acumen which
they have displayed in the conduct.
of their businesses. The voters
should commend this interest at
the polls.
Idealism, enthusiasm, and ener-
gy, all are characteristic of youth.

IMAGINATION
Alta Sandberg

Imagination is that gift to man
kind which leads him from the
depths of his soul to the utmost
heights of his glory. 1t follows
him to retirement, fingers there
until the last hazy thought is SUBJ
merged in sleep and then follows
in his slumber.
We all, even the most lowly
moron, have that imagination. Be
it dull, keen, vivid, wierd or YER
satile. it is there. Some people
are endowed with wit to aid
in productiveness; some are re-
elusive, and dwell almost entirely
in the Imagination; still others let
it wander out of control and are
handicapped by the impossibility
of these dreams. Some find it en-
PERTAINING and through superior
skill of style set it's return on pa
per for the enjoyment of others
less fortunate.
Books are mankinds bridge tc
the past, but Imagination alone
can bridge the distance to the fu-
ture. Minus these two, past and
future, the present would scarcely
be worth while to anyone.

books close October 16. The books,
for persons living in the city, are

Reporter office. 1t is necessary
to register on or before the 10th

election in November.
This is a year when every man
and woman who has the right to
vote should exercise the privi-
lege. One has not right to criticize
or to complain of any phase of
the government unless one has
gone to the polls, the proper place
to express ones opinion. Every
year certain number of persons
have valid reasons for not using
their franchise such as sickness
or moving ones place of residence
but the great majority of persons
who do not vote, either disregard
their duties of citizenship or are
just plain lazy.
This is presidential year. Two
good men are running for the
presidency. Interest is also cen
tering in the state, city, ant
county elections. Our country ha
given us certain rights to cherish
not abuse. If you are not regis

Only two weeks ago "Associat-
ed Student Body" tickets were dis
tributed among the classes. These
are season tickets admitting a buy
er to all functions carried on by
the K. II. S. The class selling the
greater amount during the two
weeks time was to receive a prize
as was also the class buying the
greatest percentage of student
tickets.
At half past three Monday che
campaign began. Every member
of KRIS. rushed from school 70
leap before the other for they
all remember, at such an urgent
moment, that "the early bird al.
ways catches the worm" Rumors
would get about from day to day
as to which class was in the lead
despite the struggle on the part
of each group to keep secret the
amount of sales.
Some, who were especially gifted
statesmen sold as many as sou
worth; some sold none.
The contest closed Friday, Oct.
5 at noon. When the class secre-
taries turned in to the Student
Body all records and money from
the sales it was found that the

ing to mix liquor and gasoline. AL.
though the 18th amendment has
been made political issue, it need
not be so construed as an editorial
policy, rather a policy of present
ing a thought concerning the
liquor question.
Only since enactment of the
18th amendment has the auto
mobile become a popular and
practical means of pleasure and
commercial transportation. This
pleasure has been made possible
from money formerly spent for
liquor now being used to purchase
cars for the family once desti-
tute of necessities and pleasures.
It has been stated that 90 per
cent of pleasure cars are bought
on the installment plan-that is
no different from the time VII ii
the bar claimed the weekly wage
and the husband and father stop
ped on his way home and expend-
ed his earnings in drink.
Amend, alter, or in any man
ner change the 18th amendment
which will render it easier to OBJ
tain liquor of any kind or in
any quantity and the way has
been opened to divert this install
ment automibile money into liquor
channels and there will be insuffic-
lent funds to meet these payments

the agency, the family deprived of
this class of association, oppor-
tunity to be out of doors and de-
velop the spirit which goes into
making happy homes.
Moreover, once this immense
volume of cars has been taken
back and the installments stopped,
what is to become of this, the
most powerful economic condition
the nation has known?

SCRAP LOOMS In
DEMO CAMP

CONTINUED from front pagel
most of eastern Washington. State
Senator Condor is backed by King
and kitsap counties, while Sam
Perkins is supported by Pierce
county and some parts of south
west Washington. Spokane, Whit
man, Whatcom, Skagit, Snohom-
ish, Chelan, Pacific and several
other counties are holding off,
waiting to see what turns up In
the convention. Consequently, the
national committeemanship is on
the block, giving the boys some
thing to play with, and nobody can
predict who will land the place.
1t may be that Mark Reed or some
other prominent party worker will
be trotted out as a compromise, or
it may be that the supporters of
Herbert Hoover will decide that
they have enough votes to make
Richards. Perkins and Condor take
turns at shouting "Hoover!" Any
way, the job promises to be the
life of the state convention.
