Detailed Report of Federal Grand Jury
 Submitted District Court Thursday

eiation by the Eskimos of the moral standards of our present civilization and the heavy eX- pense to the government we re- commend that sexual crimes com mitted by them, excepting rape be charged as misdemeanors and tried before the respective com missioners in the Division, instead of holding the defendants to ap- pear before the grand jury.
 We deplore the fact that juve- nile defendants are brought be- fore the District Court on felony charges and recommend that the ensuing Territorial Legislature pass a bill providing for the es tablishment of a Juvenile Court to the end that these young de fendants shell not be branded as felons.
 Certain indigent defendants have been brought before this and other grand juries without means to pay their transporta tion to their place of abode on being found mot guilty We recommend that the department authorize the United States Mar shal to pay said transportation out of the fund provided for Mis- cellaneouS Expenses United Sta tes Courts, 1886.
 The members of the Grand jury desire to express appreciation for the many courtesies extended to them by the officials.
 Respectfully submitted,

NEW ASSEMBLY,
is RIOTOUS HIT

One of the most successful as
semblies ever held was given last
Wednesday for the benefit of the
school.
The assembly was called during
class period and was attended by
the entire student body. All teach
ers were present and all exit doors
unlocked and unguarded. It was
noticed that Mr.. Johannes laughed
uproariously during the whole
thing. The first speech was made
by Mr.. Jungstrum, who talked for
10 minutes and was then booed off
the floor. The band played Schu-
bert's Serenade with How Dry I
Am" for an encore. Vivian Hunt
and Hazel Watts sang "Wahoo" with
gestures that kept the crowded as
sembly in an uproar. Tubby Wall
and Bud Walters did an adagio
dance that thrilled even MIR. Byrd.
The assembly closed with everyone
harmoniously and enthusiastically
singing the Lions Song. mo an

PROF. CLARK
VANISHES WED.

Our science professor, Clark, hav-
ing funny empty feeling in his
stomach the other day, decided he
would partake of little sustenence.
He first washed his hands and then
he produced an egg from his pocket
and proceeded to cook it in alcohol
and to scratch his head at the same
time, thus producing a spark. The
alcohol blew up and Mr.. Clark was
seen few minutes later flying thru
the sky. A few of the students saw
him, but they were not surprised,
because they supposed he was just
trying another one Of his expert
ments. But now to get back to the
school house, which was totally des-
troyed. The students all sat down
and cried when they saw what had
happened to their dear old K. II. S.
In fact they felt so badly that their
parents could not induce them to
60 home. Instead they sat on the
school grounds aud mourned all
night. But they were able to dry
their tears and feel normal again
when in the morning they found the
new school building was finished.
Mr.. Clark was back and they would
again be able to resume their
studies.

TO BE FAMOUS

Have you noticed the greatly i'm
proved tones issuing forth from the
Kennewick Conservatory of Music?
There's a reason for this progress.
At band practice yesterday there
was not a single member who re-
ported getting in less than ten hours
a day practice during the past week.
Who says practice doesn't make
perfect? And in case any of you
saw them marching in the Lions
Den, we hope you noticed the per-
fectly executed turns, with every
one in step-even the drummer. We
feel certain that our band will take
first place in the county music con-
test.
And is Miss Hopkins pleased! Ev-
erett Clifford hit B flat above high
C three times in succession at the
last practice. She is quite conf
dent now that the glee club will
also win honors at the contest.

DUST STORM
RACES ATK.H.S.

A dust storm of terrible proper
lions swept the vicinity around Ken
newick high school last Thursday.
The annex was completely buried
beneath the shifting sands. Most
of the pupils from the building were
saved by a digging crew of about
one thousand men. The new high
school building under construction
was partly covered by the dirt. The
high school itself escaped with few
casualties. Three students, who
were in the basement were smother
ed and six students are suffering
from lung complications caused by
the dust. The water pipes were clog
ged by sand and so no water was
available at the school during the
storm. Many of the students suf-
fered severely from thirst. The
whole school gathered, in the as
sembly. Bob Skuse and some other
brave and resourceful students help
ed to prevent a panic by getting the
group to sing songs such as the st.
Louis Blues"
The Washington school children
were taken out of that building only
a few minutes before the building
collapsed. No one was injured.
