TWO TONS OF TINFOIL
FOR CRIPPLED KIDS

"The saving of a waste product
is doing that-tinfoil from cigar
wrappers, candy bars and many
other items of merchandise.
eve are delighted that the cam
paign has appealed to the people
of the Northwest as keenly as is
indicated by the cash receipts mem
toned above. We hope they do
more and more for the crippled
kids along this line. They can be
assured that every dollar that is
received from the campaign will De
accounted for in pleasure, happi-
ness and helps for the little folk.
Everybody can save tinfoil. Just
do it.
saThen, when you have a ball of
it wrapped up, or have filled a box
or other container, just take it
down to Robert Mackie, who has
been appointed to have charge of
forwarding the collections from
Kennewick."

The Hill Bill Satisfactory

There is a feeling here of much
satisfaction that the bill introduc-
ed by Knute Hill, passed by the
legislature and signed by Govern
or Hartley to redress some OF the
grievances of the ranchers as we'll
as on other irrigated sections, will
have much to do with allaying a
feeling if disquietude which has
existed for some time regarding
the future of the project. The new
hill provides the necessary legal
machinery to enable 81 per cent OF
the bondholders to make an agree
ment with the water used by here
as 100 per cent agreement was
formerly required. Also when a
rancher has paid up his water
richt he is then exempt from hav-
inc TO hear a share of the burden
caused by delinquent owners, and
ON lands that went back to the dis
trict. The so-called blanket mort
gage is therefore practically re-
moved. Now an Industrious man
can improve his place, pay off the
sum against it and feel secure that
It is his and there can be no come
back at him by bondholders.
Work on the new highway south
of town is making satisfactory
progress. The cement bridge over
the irrigation ditch is well on to-
wards completion. Grading, how
ever, has been hindered on some
DAYS by strong winds. Attic at
f;rst the business men here felt
that the new road cutting of
Richland would hurt the town, Dul
now they seem reconclled TO tne

TWO COLLEGE
PROPS OUSTED
Psychology Head and Stu
dent Assistant Authors
OF QUESTIONABLE

SHAWNEE, Okla, April 24.-(P)-
Alleged preparation of a sex ques-
tionnaire similar to that which led
t. the discharge of faculty members
at the University of Missouri sew
eral weeks ago has resulted in the
dismissal of H. D. Powers, head of
the psychology department of Ok
lahoma Baptist University here and
the discharge of Bernie 0. Wells,
student assistant.
DR.. w. w. Phelan, president of
the university, made an announce
ment in which he relates his dis
covery of the QUESTIONABLE, which
he said had been sent to the univer-
sity print shop.
The questions we're "vile and
filthy" he said, adding it was 1.-THE
most unchriStian sheet of writing"
he ever had seen.
Dr.. Phelan said he had discharg-
ed Powers and Wells, a ministerial
student Tuesday after he had made
an investigation which led him to
believe the QUESTIONABLE was to be
used in psychology classes.
Wells, charged with having given
the order for the QUESTIONABLE to
the print shop, told officials

PASTOR RAKES
CHURCH TENETS
Scathing Denunciation By
Cameron Man Is Answer
To Presbyterians

CAMERON, Texas, April 24.-(P
A scathing denunciation of church
tents which stifle scholarship is the
answer of the Rev. H. G. Kenney
to the officials who recently ousted
him from the pastorate Of the First
Presbyterian church here.
Church leaders agreed that if
there had been q chance for The
Rev. Kenney's reinstatement, his
statement precluded such a possibil-
ity. His indictment against the
church leaders who expelled him
was concluded with the words: Il
cannot believe that all doors are
forever closed on me-"
TT makes no difference how much
good a man may be doing" the min
ister's statement declared. IF he
fails to uphold and defend the
standards of the church there is
no place for him in their midst. I
have been put out because I would
not permit my name to remain on a
statement of faith which was Meth
er constructive nor vital"
The church today is too interested
in correct theology and not interest
ed enough in vital religion, the pas
tor said.
One meets today many great
Methodists' and great PreSbyterl-
ans but how few are the great
Christians"

story.
Judge Hardy admitted having
conferred with Mrs. McPherson's at
torneys or the employment of de-
tectiveS and also that he had re-
ceived reports from investigators

to support the evangelist's conten-
ton that she al not the woman who
was with Kenneth G. Ormiston, for
mer Angelus temple radio operator,
