As DEPENDABLE As YOUR NILKMAN


Next worst thing to opening your door and
finding no milk on the doorstep is spending an
evening at home without The Tmes-News
Fortunately, both your miIknan and your
Times-News delivery boy have one thing in com.
mon which is of utmost Importance to you -.
DEPENDABILETY.
Your delivery boy becomes dependable at an
early age because he's proud of the fact that he's
"On the staff" proud of the fact that "the STAFF

that his Dad and the people on his route all read

Tmes-News advertisers can depend upon
Iimes-News ad-customers because the advertis-

see advertised i'm The Times-News can be de-
pended upon. ,..
Some day your delivery boy will realize that
amOdern newspaper cannot exist without adver'

exist unless it's DEPENDABLE ADVERTISING.
By that time, he'll have become Times-News
reader and ad-customer himself, and the adyer.
Users whose names have been part of The

very important to him. He'll KNOW they're De-

SENIOR BIOGRAPHIES

LORENA SLAVENS: Lorena came
into this world on September 18th,
1920. This day Gthe thi1teentf)
seems to have been lucky for the
world, for she has proved herself a
good, as we'll as a model, student.
This is shown by the fact that she
was promoted from the first to the
third grade Between this time and
the sixth, Lorena's reconections are
slightly hazy. Lorena tells us she
got her first permanent when she
was in the seventh grade. We also
remember that, at about this time,
she was named "Topsy' by one of
her good friends. She embarked
upon her school career at Hanford
and was the only girl in the F'rosh
class, also the French class. s'Top-
sy" (Lorena to you) likes a good
time just as we'll as the rest OF us
and, among her hobbies, swimming
and piano playing are numbered.
She enjoys all kinds Of outdoor
sports, also. AS to- her ambition
we'll, we suspect that perhaps she is
rather dubious as to that. Only once
in her entire school career has I'o-
rena held an Office in school, and
that was president of the Junior
class. Lorena says that she is a
fraid that she will go to school at
ter she graduates and if she does,
we certainly wish her the best OF
luck.

STANFORD WON

The progress of the playoH series
for the basketball championship OF
the northwest and, later, for the Pa
cific Coast states, was followed with
keen interest by many here. They
rejoiced at the success of the WASH
ington State College in its victories
over Washington and Oregon and
thrilled at the titanic battles that
went to Stanford, mainly because
a single super player on the Stan
ford team required so much atten-
ton to check him that the effort
required gave the Stanford team the
edge. However, the close guarding
OF the Cougars held the mighty
Stanford team to relatively low
scores. That team has scored con-
sistently between fifty and SIXTY
points per game all season-n this
two-game series, II, or an average
of SO.

There is not enough space left in
this issue of the Spokesman to be-
gin a lengthy article, so we resort
to comment on the happenings of
the time Washington's labor ty-
ranny, apparently on the run in mid
winter, recovered much of it's pres
tige (aided by the furore concern
ing the childish Shutdown strikes in
the east) and made its influence
felt in last minute legislation in the
state. President Roosevelt, appar-
emily amazed at the amount of OPP
position in his own liberal" ranks
his Supreme Court meddling plan
has developed, has decided not to
force the issue apparently to a
quick conclusion, for fear of getting
badly beaten, but to delay matters
until Jim Farley's velvet steel glove
can squeeze out enough support to
save his face in the matter Radical
Democratic papers in the Solid
South. many of them, have f1outed
the Supreme Court ravishment plan,
tending to prove what we have al
waye contended. that this issue is
not partisan, but matter of relin-
gushing rights of democracy earned
by many wars and much loss of life.
With the advent of spring war talk
again fills the papers, with Europe's
beneficent dictators on the prod.
These dictatorS are great patriots,
good for their countrys social and
financial security-and cemeteries!

''The Robins Song''
Dedicated to Friends on the Upper
Columbia River by Mrs.
Caroline Cox

The Spring has come!
The Spring has come "
A robin sang today:
Cliff up your eyes unto the hills
And note the blossoms, gay
The gentle hills. the heavenly hills,
Where happy nature, waking, thrills;
For Spring has come, to stay"
"The hills whence cometh help"
I said.
Too long on skies of gray
My eyes have dwelt. Too long the
Sad and bitter winters day
Of my dark grief. Now will I turn
Till moons shall rise and sunsets
burn
/ will lift mine eyes unto the hills
Where strength abides Away"
The beauteous hills,
The steadfast hills,
The hills Of God! Away
serene, they patient, stand
Through winters skies of gray.
Through driving rain or icy sleet
Or springtime bloom or summer
heat,
Interchangeable are they
N
The robins song is in my heart.
I make no more delay
I will lift my eyes unto the hills
And unto Hin-for aye
Who made the heavens and the
earth
And giveth strength and truest
worth
For Spring has come to stay.

When the Spokesman removes a,
name from the subscription list, it
notifies the former recipient by card.
Recently we have dropped four of
our former subscribers from the list,
believing that the state of their
subscription labels warranted the
belief they had found new interests
and were more or less out of touch
with White Bluffs affairs. Nearly
all such subscribers appreciate the
courtesy of the card and we have
had an appreciative reply or two.
The last was from Roscoe Ray, the
young gentleman who once worked
in the Spokesman Office, and he is

For as long IS you think and act
