PROOFREADER

rTHE Kingston Standard says
i there are 10000 pieces of
type used In single column of a
newspaper; there are. seven pos
sible wrong positions for each let
ter; there are 10000 chances to
make errors and millions of pos
sible transpositions. In the sent
ence TO be or not to be- 2,759, 022
errors can be made by transposi-
ton alone"
/ don't know where the Kingston
Standard got it's information. The
editor must have had very quiet
day to figure it all out, and ] am
OF going to check him up. The fact
remains that every piece of print
ing of any size is made up OF
thousands or millions of pieces OF
type. Add to the millions OF
chances of making a mistake, the
natural cussedness of the compos-
itor, and the fact that the human
eye has strong tendency to see
what the mind expects it to see
rather than what is actually IN
front of it, and you have the ex-
PLANTATION of the fact that there is
rarely piece of printing Of any
size without at least one error.

TURKEY PLUS

Tlhe Pilgroms had something to
j be thankful for-life and the
means to sustain life through an
other bitter winter. They really
meant it when they set aside day
to express their heartfelt thanks.
We still observe the day, but
most of our gratefulness is per-
.functory, brief acknowledgment
to give an excuse for holiday.
If we stop to think, we have far
more for which to be thankful than
did the Pilgrims, wrenching a
bare living from that stern and
rockbound coast" Everyone of us
has lite, and no one in this valley
faces the prospect of starvation
before spring.
In the midst of our luxury and
abundance we have forgotten to De
thankful. Too much we take for
granted, forgetting that we came
into this world with nothing but
our native mental and physical
equipment. Whatever we have ac-
cumulated since then in the way
of education, character and world
ly goods, we owe to someone out
side ourselves, for even our tai
ents were gift in the first place.
So consider, if only for a moment,
other things than turkey on No
vember %.

PAsCo LIGHTS

CONGRATULATIONS, Pasco, on
~ your new lights! You have
achieved, after a long struggle, q
system which is a credit to your
community.
Pasco has led the way in this
civic project which is of great i'm
portance to any town. With It's
streets properly and sufficiently
Illuminated, Pasco has the jump
on Kennewick, which is still han
dicapped by an old-fashioned and
inadequate street lamp system.
Humans are great deal like
moths-attracted to the light.
Light means others of their kind.
and so people will flock to the
brightly lighted thorofare, as a
matter Of course.
When the city council, respons-
i've to the demands and desires of
the voting public behind it, comes
to consider further improvements,
we want them to turn to lighting,
and they will do so if they feel the
pressure of whole town with it's
mind made up to secure adequate
lighting.
The council is not ready to act
yet. But it's time of action can be
FASTENED and made sure by the OPP
inion of the voters and taxpayers.
A new lamp system would be a
sound investment as any business
man could make with the money it
will require, for the returns will
be consistent and continuous.
Pasco is in the lead, but there is
no reason why Kennewick cannot
be a close second.

TO LOSE is NOT TO FAIL

TO LOSE is NOT TO FAIL
IF football were Judged solely by
4 the number of wins scored
against opponents, Kennew ic k
might be excused for knocking its
team.
But football is made up of many
other things besides points. OF
these, good craftsmanship is prob
ably the most important. In its
broadcast sense, it is the reason
for allowing football to hold such
a large place in our educational in
stitutions. Good sportsmanship not
only among players, but among
the rooters is the thing that lifts
football out of. the class Of mere
physical conflict and makes it into
q thing that builds unity and
character in school.
The courage that Kennewick's
team has shown in losing game
after game and still fighting as
tho the championship was almost
within its grasp shows US that this
season has not been at all in vain.
This comeback" spirit has not
been confined to the players. Ii
has extended through the whole
high school. Relying on the team
to do it's best, winning or losing.
the rooters have held well to the
tradition of loyalty and pep"
We may scott at the superficial
results of the games, but we musi
pay respect to the spirit and grit
shown all the way thru by the boys
who have done their best to up
hold the honor Of Kennewick.

Automotive engineers agree that 1000

the starting period. This destructive
wear is definitely reduced by the use of
CONOCO Germ Processed Motor Oil.
Ordinary oil, thinned by heat and dilution,
drains down past the piston rings when the
motor is stopped, leaving little or no pro-
tective film. On starting the motor, con-
siderable time is required for the oil to
reach all bearings and working surfaces.
Under adverse conditions, such as winter
temperatures, this time may be from Is to
20 minutes or even longer.
Since CONOCO Germ Processed Motor
Oil never leaves the bearings and working
surfaces, it is always there under any and
