Court of Injustice
Makes Girls Pay Fines

Virtually every wage Garner
in this community is willing to agree
that the kangaroo court is bearing
a proper moniker when it is called
a "court of injustice" Uudge Kit
Clifford has been presiding, some
forty special police assisting in
bringing in the "culprits" and the
victims have been fined in various
small sums.
Injustice-yes, but lot of fun,
too, for the Judge" makes enough
wise cracks to make it worth the
fine he always winds up with. Mon
day night, while the paddy wagon
was advertising in Walla Walla, the
Judge and his cops rounded up the
Business Girls and they all were
hailed into court. They all were re-
lieved of their small change, but
had lot of fun being hauled around
town on hay wagon in lieu of the
patrol wagon.
Tonight the court is planning
some special stunt. It will be the
last session and an additional crew
of police has been rounded up to
make the drive.
The fines are going into the
Fourth of July Fund.

Arena Dedicated

The new rode0 arena was ap-
propriately dedicated on We'd

four attendants, all dressed up
in new riding clothes, went out
to the arena to practice MAX

Just then her spurs stuck in,

Fire Chief Praises
Departments Work

when that fire at Kinks last
Monday morning broke through, i
wouldn' have given a plugged
nickle for the whole block" Fire
Chief Wilmot Gravenslund said in
speaking of the restaurant fire.
Flames shot out Of that second
story clear across the street. How
the boys ever managed to subdue
that blaze is still mystery TO me-"
The fire started from a pile of
rubbish in the rear of the building,
burned up inside rear wall into
the underside of the roof, finally
bursting out the front. With the
brisk wind blowing, the flames shot
far out into the street. Three lines
of hose from the new equipment
and one from the old pumper at
tackled the blaze and il was soon
under control. The two pumps tax
ed the capacity Of the water system
TO such an extent that residents
were unable to draw water from
their fawcets.
THE new equipment proved its
worth on this one fire--not partic-
ularly in saving this building. but
in saving all the rest of that end of
town." Mr.. Gravenslund said.
During our department prac-
tees" Mr.. Gravenslund said, IT
something think we have the worst
fire department in the world. But
when it comes to actual work at a
fire we seem to have marvellous sue
cess. We have had splendid rec
ord the past few years, and after
fire is under control I always have
a glow Of pride in the way the boys
did their stuff"
The building, badly damaged in
the upper story, will be torn down.
according to the plans of the Erick-
son Brothers, owners. No plans are
yet made for its rebuilding.

Incoming Tourists Protest

New York City-Until last week,
voyagers arriving in American ports
could bring in liquor up to the 500
tax-free customs limit. But while
915 steamship passengers destined
for this port were on high seas, the
Treasury department revised its
rules, limiting such importations to
one "wine-gallon" per person. Amid
loud protests, the returning travel
ers paid $4,000 in duties, left their
liquor on the dock or sold it back
to the steamship companies.

LONG DISTANCE GOVERNMENT

The federal committee on nation
al resources has made the sugges-
tion that the work of administering
the activities of the United States
government be split up into 10 or
12 sections. In each section, made
up of several states, there would be
central federal Offices.
One trouble with the activities OF
the federal government. is that
Washington Is too far away from
most of the states. If citizen has
complaint to make about some fed
eral action. long journey may be-
come necessary. If he can go to
some nearer center. his problem is
more easily solved. People cling to
the state governments and dislike to
see their powers limited, because
these governments are near home.
The state authorities who regulate
the affairs of the people can be
easily reached. Long distance gov
has never been popular.
Milford chronicle., 1936-01-10
THE HISTORY OF CONGRESS-

We can get some idea of what the
new session of Congress will ac'
complish, by noting that the session
next preceding a presidential cleo
ton, is a kind of field day for ora
tors. Congress is the forum from
which the statesmen speak the
words that are supposed to echo
through the homes and markets OF
the nation.
The shadow OF next November 3
will be over the acts of this session
The people are to pass on the things
the government has done in the
three fatefuI years that have just
passed. The "ins" will be keen to
perfect the record. and prove that
noble gains have been made for the
sacred cause of human progress.
The "outs" will be equally keen to
prove that the supposed gains are
largely fictitious, and that the seats
of the mighty must be overturned
and a new crowd put in power.
Some people seem to think that
Congresses are made up of stubborn
people who are bent on policies des-
tined to harm the nation. But there
is not one Of all those members who
has any wish to harm the country.
II can be taken for granted that
they all want to benefit their fellow
citizens.
But if some group of statesmen
seem to be gtubbornly determined
on some wrong idea. the reason is
that the constituents Of these
statesmen back home demand that
that idea be accepted and put in the
form of law. Congress rarely does
anything that it feelsthe people
back home will condemn.
Whatever faults may he charged
against Congress. II is the most
democratic body in the world No
other parliament attempts so faith
-uIly to follow the will of the peO-
pie. II our Congress makes mis-
axes, blame the people back home
who demanded that those errors be
made.

nISAGREEARLE HABITS

A group of chorus girls at Holly
wood were recently asked as to
whether they could be happy with a
man who had certain habits. Among
the habits to which these glOrified
young ladies objected, were drink
ing to excess. picking ones teeth In
public, and wearing sleevebands.
The average man will understand
why women can't tolerate the heavy
drinkers. But why the husband must
not wear sleevebands to keep his
cuffs clean, win be mystery to
some. Countless homes have been
spoiIed because of little manner
isms which wives disliked. Perhaps
these controversies would better be
adjusted on the basis Of the man
who agreed with his wife before
marriage. that she was to settle all
the minor problems. while he should
becide all the major ones. ."But
since we got married." he said.
there have been no major prob
lens"

homes. II the carpenter and the
plumber are idle, they can lay part
Of the blame to the timldity of Lit
tie Cupid. When the birds do not
mate, there aren't SO many home
nests built.
A depression does not stop mar
riages. Il merely postpones a good
many of them. A multitude of young
folks and some older oneg. are con-
templating marriage, and desire
homes. That basic desire of human
nature is not stopped by any finan-
cial conditions. Just as sOor as these
folks can see a regular pay enve-
lope, new home nests are going to
be called for. AS the old ones are
pretty well filled. the song of the
hammer and the saw will be heard
in the land before long, and more
so during the coming season than
for a number of years.
The young paople have a desire
for modern homes. They will often
take an old house. if it has been
fitted up with modern ideas. But the
type of house without modern im-
and finish looks unat-
tractive to the prospective bride.
She longs for the bright and shiny
new kitchens, and the refined living
rooms the new houses show.
Many recently married people
have been living with the older
folks to save money. II is not an
ideal plan. The two generations
don't seem to mix IN these close
uuarters. They love each other, but
their ideas are different. The young
people need their own little home,
where they can be king and queen
without having TO bow to any OLD
traditions. One Of these days We are
going to see the greatest home
rush this country ever
Knew.
