freshments take the place of al
ways spending money for things,
they will be happier children and
adults. Children who can be happy
in offering simple hospitality to
their friends will become grown
ups who will not worry about keep
ing up with the Joneses. They will
not be unhappy because they think
their homes are not attractive
enough for entertaining their
friends. Women especially will not
think that the possession of tall
candle sticks when this years

ing the hospitality of their homes
and will not place their entertain
ing on competitive basis.
Really See Their Home
Letting children entertain their
friends often results in having
them look at their homes and
really see them for the first time.
I think that probably first saw the
guest room in my home when as a
child was allowed to invite q
friend to be my guest for week.

the rest of the rooms of the house,
especially my own bedroom, were
the objects of my interested in
spection. I actually cleaned bureau
drawers, picked up misplaced
articles, cast a critical eye at my
clothes closet and contemplated
improvements in the artistic effect,
because it was my guest who was
coming. Before that it was not nv
own sense Of orderliness but the
constant admonition of my mother
which resulted in any degree of
houseWifely activity on my part.
The weekend guest did not at all
effect a permanent reform, am
sorry to say, but I began to see in
what was before taken-for-
granted home one which had re-
quired thought and effort to Gre
ate. And as such occasions are re-
peated through the years, children
develop a feeling of more possess
sive interest in their homes as
places that belong to them as well
as to their parents. Miss Martha
Van Rensselaer,, who for 80 years
was head of the department. of
Home Economics at Cornell Uni
versity and assistant director of the
White House Conference on Child
Health and Protection, 1882, has
said, THE welcome and entertain
ment that the home offers to a
child's friends are perhaps the chief
reasons for his attachment or hos
pitality to his home"

Dam Site To Have
Emergency Bridge
Low Water Piling Bridge Will
Serve Until Steel Structure
Is Completed

SPOKANE Mason group of
contractors, to speed Grand Coulee
dam construction operations, will
construct low water piling bridge
as soon as possible to serve until the
steel combination railroad, truck
and pedestrian bridge is built by the
group These two bridges are in
dependent of the government
bridge now under construction.
The $29, 539, 3O1 construction con-
tract for the dam signed by the
Silas Mason contracting group, to-
gether with the ST, OOO, COO bond were
received Monday by the Denver
headquarters of the United States
reclamation bureau for its approval.
This is expected to require little
time, as the contract was drawn
up by the Denver office. Among
the largest surety concerns in the
nation are on the Mason bond and
scrutiny of this particular also is
expected not to call for a prolonged
period.
Send Contract BY Air Mail
The next step is to air mail the
contract and bond to Washington,
D. c., where Elwood Mead, commits
sioner of the reclamation bureau,
will pass on the instruments, which
are then relayed to Secretary of the
Interior IckeS.
Contractors as a rule do not wait
for the completion of the final for
malities, which are foregone con-
clusion, and get under Roadway,
and this is expected to be the case
with the Mason group. They are to
meet in Spokane September "a and
award bids for construction camp
material, whether or not formal
authorization has been received, it
was believed yesterday in Columbia
basin commission quarters.
\ Three sets of bids were received
yesterday. One covered the lumber
required; another, if pre-cut; third,
if pre-fabricated.
!, Guy Atkinson of the Atkinson
Kier company, a member of the
group, arrived Monday by plane
from New York and Immediately
went to the dam site, accompanied
by Superintendent Harvey Slocum
of the Mason company.

of II field inspections completed in
10 counties by Leonard Hegnauer,
state college extension agronomist.
The inspected fields representing
every section in the state include
1884 acres of wheat, 202 acres of
barley, 1850 acres of oats and 200
acres of rye.
Each field was carefully gone over
by Mr.. Hegnauer before harvest to
insure the farmers of the state the
best seed available In their locali-
ties. These fields had to be prac-
tically free from varietal mixture
and smut. The varieties, moreover,
had to be standardized for the 10
cality. After harvest, purity and
examinations tests were made at the
college of all approved fields to
verify findings in the field.
After field and laboratory tests
were successfully passed, the fields
were listed as approved, giving the
names and addresses of the farm
ers, kind of cereal, variety OF Ger
cal, per cent of mixture and acres
OF the field. These approved SEED
lists have been placed in the hands
of county agricultural agents in all
counties so that growers in search
of approved seed can easily locate
the nearest supply.
Standard wheat varieties listed
include Albit, Ridit, Triplet, Blue
stem, Federation, Turkey and Baart.
Markton oats and Horsford barley
are standard listed varieties for
eastern Washington, while Victory
oats is approved for western Wash
ington. Other listings include
Beldi and White Barley and Rosen
rye.
Approved listings may be obtain
ed from the local county agent or
the Extension Service, Pullman.

Z. GRAND COULEE DAM, Sept.
18-The old Charley Osborne home,
long a landmark where the model
town is now being built, will soon
go the way of other pioneer marks
before the onslaught of modern
machinery and speed.
Osborne, who has lived in the
Grand Coulee and here, since the
spring of 1885,. said he would
probably move the old build

Columbia Basin Commission or the

The Child Entertains
BY Martha E. Dresslar,
Home Economics Department.

by Marina +. DreSSlar,
Home Economics Department,
University of Washington
There is so much to be gained of
immediate good and of even greater
future satisfaction from encourage
ing and assisting children to par
ticipate actively in extending the
hospitality of the home, hospitality
not only to those of their own ages
but to other friends of the family.
And last but most certainly not
least, to the members Of the fam
lily.
I realize that there are many
problems involved, that it is not
easy to arrange the ice cream and
cake parties of early childhood,
and later it is even more difficult
to meet the wishes of +. the. high
school boys and girls with their
rapidly growing ideas Of what they
should be permitted to do in order
to offer their friends the accepted
good time. But children who enter
tain their friends, who actually help
with the plans for extending the
hospitality of their home instead of
having it all done for them by
mother and father, learn that such
hospitality requires planning, work,
adjustments to the rights of other
members Of the family and linlita-
lions imposed by cost. Their ef-
forts will no doubt be clumsy;
their ideas will need much Guidance
and in most cases it would be far
easier for the adult members OF
the household to do it all them
selves. But it will only be through
actually doing that the children
will profit.
Develop Abilities
The planning OF parties or other
forms of entertainment will con-
tribute to the development of the
ability to organize, to manage
Having to do a considerable part
of the work and encountering diff
culties in the carrying out of plans
will result in children being some
what more appreciative of what has
been done for them, so much OF
which they take for granted. Being
required to keep within a certain
expenditure will help to make them
realize the limitations Of the fam
lily budget. If, at an early age, they
can develop the ability to make
their own ingenuity at games,
music, conversation and simple re-
