River Tug Mary
Gail Ties Up at
KenneWick Port
After Lapse of 20 Years
Traffic on Upper River
Now Resumed

Today is q red-letter day in local
history, for it marks the return Of
river traffic at the local port. It is
the first time in about twenty years
that a commercial boat has tied up
here.
The new tug Mary Gail, built to
transport oil cargoes from the
mouth of the Columbia to the stor-
age tanks at Wallula, pulled into
the local harbor this afternoon,
coming up over the Homily Rapids
to Kennewick to secure lumber and
building materials to rebuild the
pilothouse. 49, H.
Operators of the boat declared
they had no particular difficulty in
getting over the rapids, and would
find still less trouble as the depth
of the water increased. The river is
about at the normal low water
stage here at the present time, and
will go no lower, ordinarily, until
about December, it is declared.
Owing to several distinct advan-
tages, local boosters are making
every effort to have the oil cargoes
distributed from this point rather
than from the plant which has been
established at Wallula. No decision
has been. reached, however, as to
whether or not they have been sue
cesSful In their efforts.
Inasmuch as the local port dis
trict is still q functioning concern,
it is thought that the district could
supply facilities such as could not
be obtained elsewhere. It Is also
felt that the arrival Of the Mary
Gail at this port will have favor
able effect upon the federal develop
ment of the Columbia for naviga-
ton purposes.

City Water Is OK
Says State Officer
Filteration Only Solution for Better
Water Supply; Cost is Too High;
Sewage Disposal on the Way

'Chlorinated water has been used
all over the world for the past twen-
ty years and no one has ever found
that it harmed the human anatomy
a particle" stated Paul e. Seufer
assistant engineer for the state de-
partment Of public works yesterday
In an interview with the local news
paper.
wells are not necessarily the So
luton Of your water supply prob
lem either, for wells have been de-
clared unfit for consumption, too
Nor will the extension Of your in

siderable sum boring for well water,

this purpose"
Mr.. Seufer stated that filtera-
ltion plant had been recommended
for the Kennewick water supply by
! the Northwest Planning board, bu,
probably it would be long time
before the funds would be forth
coming.
He pointed out that most OF the
communities along the Yakima riv-
er were putting In sewage disposal
plants and contamination Of the
Yakima would become less and less
as the plants came into operation
He said that the chlorination pro-
cess made the water as free from
bacteria as it was possible for wa
ter to be, but that because Of the
water itself there would always be
more or less taste and odor in con-
nection with it.

Home and City
Shown in Lecture
State Officer Urges Ken.
newick to Join Nation
wide Movement

The illustrated lecture on Home
Identification proved most inter-
esting and educational to the Ken
newick citizens who attended. The
first lecture, that of HANDICAPPED
Gardens and Designs" was read by
r. E. Reed and the slides were op-
Grated by w. A. Sisson of Pasco
who is head of the lighting depart
ment for the p. p. & L. company Of
this district. This lecture showed
the proper and improper methods
of planting flowers, shrubs, lawn
etc. around the house and the same
applied to the home gardens. The
before and after pictures showed
how a little time and effort on the
part of citizens of a community can
improve their public property a.
well as the individual homes.
The second part of the lecture was
read by Mrs. Ethel Zirkle of the To-
cal p. p. & L. company. This section
was entitled Light is the Key Il
Secret Gardens" There were many
beautiful colored slides shown with
this lecture bringing out the diff.
ferent lighting Effects possible al
night in the home gardens. These
showed many different methods by
which the details of fountains
pools, and flowers may be made
beautiful at night by colored lights
and reflectors. Following these lee
lures Mr.. Sisson gave q lighting
demonstration of ways by which the
garden can be lighted.
Mrs. Nesmith Ankeny, of Walla
Walla, and state chairman of Civic
Art of the Federated Woman's club
gave some very interesting sugges-
tions in regard to the beautifica-
ton of our own community. It is
through her effort and interest In
community that this lecture was
much during the past two years in
made possible and she has helped
promoting the improvement of sew
eral city spots.

intriguing and interesting dish. 1t
is made as follows:
BAKED OYSTER OMELET
18 oysters
s eggs
y cup thin cream
II cup rich cream
" teaspoon onion juice
teaspoon chopped parsley
tablespoon butter
2h tablespoons flour
Salt and white pepper
/ cup oyster liquor
Melt the butter in pan, and
add to it the flour; when we'll mix
ed, strain in the oyster liquor
through piece of cheesecloth;

en- to custard-like consistency.
Clean the oysters; drop them into
the simmering sauce and let cook
until their edges curl up.
Beat the yolks Of eggs until
very light, add salt and rich cream
mix well, and add the stiffly beat
en- whites. Pour the mixture into
a hot iron frying pan which has
not been creased, and cook in
moderate oven 20 minutes or until
the omelet has risen well and is
light brown on top. Pour the
creamed oysters on hot flat plat
ter. Take the omelet out of the
frying pan very carefully with the
aid Of spatula and pancake turn
er, and set it on top of the cream
ed oysters. A thin coating of the
olnelet will stick to the pan, but do
not scrape that out. The omeles
should not be completely set
through, but should be a little soft
in the middle.

for woman to be an experienced

good ingredients. Any housewife
can then have on hand something
to serve at all times to anyone
