After battling most of he way there

and blizzardS, sign along the
highway with the wording '.Next
time ride a train-let the engineer
be the driver" appealed strongly to
his sense of the fitness of things,
especially since the sign was visible

THINK KIDNAP
SUSPECT HERE

What would you do II you thought
you saw the kidnapper Of the Matt
son boy2
Mr.. and Mrs. x. Q. Clifford are
sure the man appeared at their
home Sunday evening. They are
just as sure as they can be until
an actual picture OF the fiend is
printed.
After dark Sunday night q man
appeared at the Clifford door and
asked IL Mr.. Clifford was In. Ted
Clifford opened the door and the
man, roughly dressed, walked In.
MIR. Clifford met him and the
stranger said he had a sick dog
and wanted a prescription filled. He
produced an old veterinary book
which contained some printed pre-
scriptions. The one he pointed TO
contained opium and MIR. Clifford
said he couldn't fill IL without q
written prescription from O doctor.
The stranger then said he had
to have something for the dog and
wanted Mr.. Clifford TO come down
to the store and get IL for him.
Clifford didn't like the looks OF
the man and told him he wouldn't
go to the store for seven sick dogs.
So the man left, getting into q car
in front Of the Clifford residence.
Kit says the dog is probably
pretty sick by now.
After the man had gone, Mrs.
Clifford asked Kit who the man re-
minded him OF. Both agreed that
his appearance tailed closely with
the picture Of the suspect in the
Mattson case-the same height,
build, peculiar eyes and deep lines
around his mouth.
Mr.. Clifford Immediately called
MIR. vibber and told him to be on
the watch for the man. He also
called Chief of Police Cochran to
watch for the man as he was quite
evidently a hop head. He also call
ed the drug stores in Pasco TO be
on the watch for the stranger, but
apparently he did not show up
there for nothing was seen Of him.
The Giffords are anxious to have
the Mattson culprit apprehended to
check up on their suspicious.

CATCH THIEF
AT WENATCHEE

One of the robbers who entered
the Neuman store Christmas has
been caught and another suspect is
in the local Jail, being held as a
material witness. They were cap
tured because of the new shoes the
culprit wore.
The man, Robert Simpson, age
20, was captured in Wenatchee on a
pilfering charge. The new shoes
gave him away and under cross
questioning confessed that he had
stolen them here. He also said that
he and his accomplish had each
taken pair of gloves and a pocket
knife as well as SIS in small change
during the robbery.
At first, Simpson said that he had
purchased the shoes at Neuman's
and described the clerk who sold
them to him. Later he confessed
that he had taken some of the
stolen money, went in to Neuman's
the next day and had purchased
new pair of rubbers to fit the shoes
stolen the night before from the
same place.
Simpson is an escaped prisoner
from the Chehalis training school,
having been sent there from Yaki-
ma county on a car stealing charge.
He is being held at Wenatchee,
while his accomplice is in Jail here,
although he has so far failed to
confess a part in the robbery.

GRASS COURSE
ISCLUB'S AIM

A grass golf course has long been

once again possibilities for secur-

courses, playfields and the like.
Conditions which the sponsoring
communities are required to meet
have been reduced to the extent that
again il may be possible for the local

property, but the construction costs
have been too high to permit q
start. The new conditions seem to
enable the community to finance
the proposition and special COM

IMAM FIRE DEPT.

Young Bob Stradford works
at the Liberty theatre and
drives a coupe. Townspeople
who saw Bob dash up the street
yesterday wondered what in the
world Bob could possibly have
in the back end of his car, for
it was spouting streams of
foamy stuff high, wide and
handsome as he made his way
through town. Every so often
the theatre has to renew the
charge in its fire extinguishers.
Bob was taking the three out to
empty them, turned a corner
too fast and the containers fell
over, releasing the liquid. The
hoses flip-flopped here and
there spouting goo all over the
route.

WPAPROJECTTO
BUILD PRIVIES

The State Department of Health
is sponsoring a Community SAM
tation program which will be opened
in Benton County about the 18th of
January Under this program, SAN
itary privies are constructed by
WPA labor from material furnish
ed by the individual desiring the
unit. All that is required to have
an installation made is that we be
furnished with the necessary bill of
material and we take this material
from which we construct the sani-
tary privy according to plans which
have the approval of the State De-
partment of Health and the o.. S.
Public Health Service, according to
word received from Russell Strick-
land.
We build, he says, the units at
our central plant and then haul
them out and set them on the prop
erty of the person who furnishes
the material. The installation, when
completed, is ready for actual use.
This service is available to anyone
who desires sanitation and who does
not have access to sewage facilities.
We make installations at any Of
the following places: private homes,
grange halls, schools, service sta
lions, diaries, etc.
| This program has been operating
in Al states of the United States for
the past year and one-half, during
which time over a million of these
sanitary privies have been construct
ed and installed. The designs of
the building has been evolved over
quite period of time and is found
to be the most efficient and best OBJ
tainable.
The cost of material required for
the construction Of one of our
standard units is approximately $18
but your local lumber dealer can
quote you the exact figure.
Remember, no red tape is neces-
sary-furnish us the required bill Of
material and we will build and in
stall a sanitary privy for you. The
only cost to you will be for the
actual material.
