.KENNEwIcK TRIUMPHs

Yowsah! Either the Kennewick
High School basketball team has
decided to drop to old phantasy
Ghat they were born to lose or
chat they have overcome the old
Rrosser jinx. Nevertheless the
Phantoms squelched the Prosser
Team on their floor January q by
"a low score of 17-15.
The Phantoms made a flying
start just after the opening bell
and continued to score eight points
before Prosser could collect them
selves enough to find the basket.
The half : ended in Kennewick's
favor 8-3.
The game was faster the second
half and the crowd was continual
Ey on its feet.
Kennewick held safe lead all
through the game with the excep-
zion of Prosser's last-minute squirt
that carried them within two
points of the Phantoms' tally.

SENIOR PLAY

Patches of light can been seen
at the windows of the "Chicken
Coop" at the rear of Kennewick
High School almost every evening
now as the cast of the Senior play
is rehearsing on Screen Stock
ings' that is to be presented at
the Liberty Theatre the latter part
of February.
Miss Winona Rushton, director
declared the play rehearsals are
rapidly giving evidence of becom-
ing more finished, as each mem
Der becomes more familiar with his
role.
The play, one of the light COM
edy type, is said to be very en-
pertaining and the characters
chosen for the various parts are
especially well suited. The Senior
class of 1893" is very fortunate
in having a large number of mem
bers who have had experience If
other stage productions and Sc
will lend an air of professionalism
to the production.

Secrets Of Health
Essentials for the Treatment of
the Feeble. Minded
By LOUIS E. BISCH
Famous Authority on Health and PsychO

Essentials for the Treatment of
the Feeble Minded
Parents who have one or
more feeble.minded children fall
into two general categories. In
one group are those who feel
convinced that the child Will
eventually outgrow the mental
trouble; in the other are those
who feel absolutely hopeless
about the future, treatment or
no treatment.
The opposing views which 1
have mentioned are as extreme
as my classification. To be
sure, many other parents exist
who are doing everything that
is possible to further the prog
reSs of their unfortunate OIL
springs. Nevertheless, it is
astonishing how few really have
scientific attitude regardlng
the problem of defective chill
dren.
First of all. parents who
have given birth to a detectlVe
child should not accuse them
selves nor should they feel any
sense of shame. Heredity may
play a dominant role in the
production of abnormal mental
states. yet hundreds OF cases
exist in which no such morbid
tendencies are diScoverable. In
fact. a feebleminded child may
be born of parents who have
had normal children before the
patients birth; cases exist also
where the children born after
the defective one are likewise
normal.
What is always essential is
that definite, accurate and
scientific diagnosis be made OF
every child who is suspected OF
being retarded mentally, no
matter how marked or how
slight that may be. Next, such
a child should be placed under
a specialists care and his direc-
tions should be faithfully car
ried out.
X-ray examination rare ly
throws added light upon what
already is known or suspected
about such patient. Mental
tests still remain the most val
liable means of determining
what is wrong with a child's
mind. These, however. must
invariably be carried out and
interpreted by a psychologist

experienced in this special type
of work. Besides such proceed
ureS a thorough physical and
neurological examination - the
latter referring particularly to
the organic state of the nerv-
Gus system-should be given.
Nowadays, and as a routine
part of the physical examina-
ton. attention is given to the
gland" system, to those endo-
crime structures which are so
powerful in stimulating or in
retarding mentality. In fact.
with proper gland treatment
more can be accomplished ir
improving feeble minded chill
dren-especially those suffering
from thyroid or pituitary defi-
ciency-than in any other way.
Certain cases of mental de-
fectiveneSs are. of course. in
durable. Especially is this true
of the lowest grades. the idiots
and imbecileS. 1t is in the high
est grades, the socalled mo
ronS," that the greatest posi-
bilities for betterment lie.
The educational side is like
wise highly important in every
feeble-minded individual, and
this irrespective of the grade
of mental defect. That is why
special classes have been set
apart in public schools for
such children while institutions.
State as we'll as Srivate. draw
heavily upon the teaching pos
sibilities in developing their
charges both mentally and
physically.
What I wish to emphasize
most strongly is that no child,
not even one who is only the
least bit defective. should be
allowed to go undiagnosed and
untreated. Always find out
exactly what modern science
has to offer in such a case.
DIR. Bisch's Daily Diet Hint
Pickles, and condiments in
general are excellent appe-
Tiers but should be eaten
sparingly and then not every
day. The food value of cucum.
Der pickles is low 92.9 per cent

pickles are prepared is a
dilute solution of acetic acid.
In small amounts it activates

excess it upsets digestion.

Bidding went: South, 1-No.
Trump: West. Double; to show
game probabilities, East bid s.
Hearts; West, 3-Spades; East,
4-Clubs; thinking that South
had little strength, although he
had opened the bidding, West
bid 6-Clubs. OF course South
doubled, with neither side hav-
ing any score. He led the Ace
of diamonds.
The declarer had none too
many re-entry cards in his
hand, so dummy's of diamonds
was sacrificed under the Ace led
by South, to make an entry of
the 10 in the declaring hand.
Having nothing better to lead
South led another diamond. The
declarer's 10 won the trick.
AS the declarer afterwards
noted, the hand was full of
traps, and required careful
study. He decided that it would
be easier to establish dummy's
spades than his own hearts. In
fact the declarer hit upon one
Of the few ways in which the
contract could be fulfilled.
East led his j of clubs. It
held the trick. He shifted to
his lone spade, took the finesse
and dummy's Q won the trick.
East ruffed a return lead of
spades; he led a low trump,
which dummy's 10 won; then
he trumped lead of a low
spade from dummy. The K of
spades fell, leaving two good
spades in dummy, but the del
clarer had played his last
trump-leading that suit twice
and ruffing spades twice, but
every card in dummy was good.
Rather than explain what he
intended doing, the declarer
led the K of hearts. South
played the Ace. Dummy ruffed
with the 10 of clubs. Even if
the Ace had not gone up Sec
ond hand dummy would have
ruffed. First, because every
card in dummy was good and
there would have been no gain
in discarding a good card.
Second, because there was a
chance that North held the

GNASAV GGAWC
To ride through the night when
the stars are near
And the wind from the sea is
cool.
When the moon is great,
white rose adrift
On the deeps of the sky's black
pool!
There is rapture and rest, there
is sure release
From the thought of days fret
and care
In a silent ride through the
tranquil night
And the rush of the salt-sweet
air!
To soar to the crest of a rock
StreWn hill.
To swoop down its steep incline
Lends the hours a spirit of vital
joy
That is heady and sweet as
wine.
To idle along on a high cliffs
edge,
Looking down on the surf below
Is to weave a dream as golden
fair
AS the wave-tossed moonbeams'
glow.
All! To ride through the night
with your hand in mine,
Through the salt-sweet wind of
the sea;

Advice To
Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Loves Him, But He Drinks

Loves Him, But He Drinks
Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 have been going with a
man for about three years and
last July we became engaged.
He was very devoted to me,
but now he seems changed.
We used to get along fine, but
lately all we do is quarrel. He
likes to drink, and that stands
between us. Once he would
listen to me when I begged
him not to, but now he drinks
as much as he likes.
l love this boy very much.
Am 1 doing the wrong thing
when Scold him for this fault?
He says I'm always nagging
him. Sometimes I take a drink
with him, thinking that might
make him stop but this seems
to encourage him to drink more.
B. H. S.
If you feel so strongly about
the young mans drinking, and
he continues to indulge more
and more as time goes on,
don't you think it might be
we'll if you gave him up?
Drinking is seldom reformed by
marriage. It's up to the drinker
to do that on his own will
power. Although, of course,
women do help men enormously
to hold to any Intention If
they're really in eareSt. 1t
seems to me nothing could de-
feat your purpose more surely
than to drink with a young man
whom you hope to reform.
Attentions to Others
Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 am in love with a young
man who is divorced from his
wife. I also am unhappily mar
ried. go out occasionally with
him, and he seems anxious to
see me when possible. The prob
lem is that 1 believe he is going
with another woman, and he
denies it. Should I tell him I
don't believe him and prove my
point, or how should I go about
it? Also, how should I test him
to find out if he really cares for
me. I do not want him to make
fool of me. WONDERING.
You haven't told me whether
you have been divorced or not,
my dear, and if you aren't,
you're hardly in position to
object to the young mans at
tentions to others. Even if you
we're engaged, it's a question
whether being utterly possessive
is the wisest policy these days.
You have probably noticed
that the women who keep
their admirers on the loosest
rein, and with no bit at all.
hold them longer than ladies
who believe in the curbed bit
method. Better not try any
tests. it seems to me. It will
make you appear jealous. And
while jealousy is almost the
oldest of human emotions, it's
the part of wisdom to con-
ceal it.

WASHHNGTONFASHONS By Wilma LouNe

Yesterday we tried to cover
the bathing suit situation pretty
thoroughly. Today we will go
into the matter Of beach clothes,
though of course neither subject
can have justice done to it in
one mere short article. Forum
ately for the fashion writer,
there's not a great deal of
change in beach apparel, though
there is plenty of chic in the
simple clothes, and they can be
made interesting by the way
they're combined. AS in bath
ing suits, new fabrics. and color
combination give them their
snap.
COlOrs Are Gay
More than ever, beach clothes
must be simple, wearable, busi-
nesslike. Their business is to
cover your bathing suit when
you're lounging on the beach, or
to wear for summing, sailing,
boating, or beach games. We've
already gone into the matter of
shorts and wrap-around skirts
for wear on the sands, and we're
going to leave for a later date,
the popular beach dress, which
some people prefer to any
trousered costume. Robes too
can wait, but slacks and shirts
are an essential part of your
wardrobe, to be bought in
harmony with your bathing suit,
so we take them up first.
KnitS for Comfort
Stacks may be of white duck,
simple or tied at the waist with
a multi-colored Hawaiian sash.
They may be of wool jersey, or
the new knitted materials which
are so smart, of flannel, of
linen, or practically any other
good dress material. The new
knitS are most popular though,
cut and fitted as carefully as a
mans trousers, and absorbent
so they'll be more comfortable
over a wet bathing suit. We've
sketched a stunning suit. the
slacks in white. navy or red, and
sailor shirts in red or white.
You can work out your own
color scheme. Stacks are $2.95,
shirts $1.25.
Plain Pants Please!
The other girl in today's
sketch has on white duck
slacks, pulled on over her bath
ing suit. Plain slacks are 81,
those with wide bottoms like
COB trousers are $l.59. and
Hawaiian slackS with colored
sash are $1.95. You'll find
smart jersey, linen or flannel
trousers about town too. and
the other accessories that go
with them. Pull-on jersey
sweaters and caps are smart
if you want to cover your back
against the sun. or if you don't,
leave off the shirt.
