Dam-McC amish Rites
SOlemniZed Saturday

Miss Margaret Dam, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. c. Dam of Rich
land, became the bride of Walter
McCamish, son of Mr.. and Mrs. A.
r. McCamish of this city at a sim
pie ceremony Saturday evening at
z o'clock The ceremony took place
at the home Of the brides parents
in Richland with the Rev. T. G.
Nelson reading the marriage vows.
The bride wore a rust dress with
black accessories and was attend
ed by Miss Velma McCamiSh, sis
ter of the groom. She is a graduate
of the Richland high school with
the class of "a and attended Kim
man Business University in Spo-
kane. She has been employed with
the Richland Columbia Irrigation
district office. "a.
Mr.. MECHANISM was attended by
his brother, Harold. He is also a
graduate of the class of "a of the
local high school and attended the
University for one year and is at
present employed with the Ken
newick bakery.
Immediately following the cere-
mony the young couple left on q

which they will make their home Oh
Dayton street.

MAKES pERFEcr?

Why Is it that the more we do
something the more certain we are
that we can do it well, and the more
assured we are that what we are do
ing is the best it can be done? AS
in the case of driving an automo-
bile. A new driver, as a rule, is alert
and cautious because he is more
timid than daring. But give him
about five years and he is vet
eran, then add ten more and he be-
comes world heater. The driver
who is a skillful driver may become
too sure of his skill and figure he
can safely and surely dart in and
out of traffic by depending upon
the "other fellow" to give him right
of way. Many folks around Ken
newick have seen this happen every
time they ride in a car and have
often wondered what traffic would
be if everybody thought he was the
favored one. This action on the
highways may work as long as two
skillful but inattentive drivers don't
try the same stunt at the same
time, coming from different direc-
tions. Then the deluge. lt 7

vail that had been the case last
year.

A FAMILY REMEDY

We can't help but see, every now
and then, some family around Ken
newick, who lack sympathy and CO.
operation with each other. Today's
family may have more to confront
it in the way Of family problems,
and when children look on their
parents as back numbers" the ans
wers to family questions usually
aren't answered satisfactorily. Often
older people feel that youth is UNI
appreciative of their advantages
and this draws the parent and the
child apart. It kills certain COM
radship that family must have.
One way for parent to draw the
youth into closer touch is by letting
him into the confidence of the fam
lily with regard to money matters.
Show him the results of honest en-
deavor and how every cent Of the
income stands for conscientious
energy and toll and is therefore
hard earned and must be treated ac-
cordingly, Make the youth part
ner and he will be interested in
making a success of his family's
business. BY understanding each
other the closer contact between
groups and the more harmony will
be brought into the home. It has
been found that more than half of
the boys between the ages Of IA
and 81 choose their own clothing,
sporting goods, radios and musical
equipment. This is without the help
of parents. The boy should be aware
of how much labor there was at
tached to making the purchase pos
sible. The Children's Bureau says
that at the age of five a child
should learn the value Of penny
and a dime. Let the youth make
family purchases. He will learn
the amount of goods he can buy for
certain sum and the responsibility
will bring worth while results.
The Kennewick courier-reporter and the White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1938-1939, 1938-09-15
EXTRACTING PAYMENT

There may be many Kennewick
business man who would like to
proceed along the lines Of dentist
who took pains to get an account
marked paid in full" His reason
might have been sensible but q
court didn't think so, for they fined
him on a charge Of assault. It
seems a lady patient had been
given an estimate Of SAT for dental
work and paid $25. When she did
not settle for the remainder the
dentist forced her into the chair
and removed what he considered
was 500 of his work. Most Of us
have to put up good fight to go
to dentist in the first place, and
then to have the good work re-
moved by force would just about
call for q return bout. as far as we
are concerned.
Before you censor the dentist for
being heartless and unsympathetic
fellow, consider whether any local
merchants might light upon this
idea as a way of settling old ac-
counts. Many of us might lose some
salt, shoes, coal-and even the
the cleanup!

LET'S CHuCKLE

Someone said, II always like to
hear him chuckle," and It made US
think bit. Could we name man
who chuckles that folks didn't
like? There is something about q
chuckle that wins you and it usual
ly comes from a person at ease with
his neighbors- and his conscience.
He is unselfish, is not q hyprocrite,
is friendly, sociable and without
guile. A chap, who is lover Of hui
mainly and Is In accord with it,
who likes us and we like him. To
review in my mind the folks who
chuckled and the folks who didn't
gave me the thought that the first
ones you could trust, and love. It
behooves us all to do q bit Of
chuckling now and then Just to
keep in practice and to hear how we
sound to the other fellow.

Approximately one and one-haH
billion dollars was the income for
highway purposes in 1886. Fifty-four
percent Of the amount came from
motor vehicle taxes, fourteen per-
ent from general property taxes,
nine percent from bonds issued and
the balance was Federal Aid. In
1921 general property taxes paid
forty-three percent Of the total
used for highway purposes.

Gentlemen:
AS you may recall, 1t was my
extreme pleasure In passing thru
your town q few months ago to
drop into your garage for an
overhauling. I confess now that
II I hadn't been In desperate
pain and in dire need Of me-
chanical aid I'd never have stop

Since that time I have been
driven clear home to the Attain
tic coast, and am still In top
notch running order.
How do you do It? That's what
I'll always wonder. Being q 5000
automobile. I'd always gone to
the most exclusive big-city repair
shops. I had been led to believe
that most Of my troubles were
chronic. and would stay with
me as long as I lived.
When with q simple screw
driver and a couple Of monkey
wrenches you pulled me apart
and slapped me together again
In record time. I thought I'd
never run again. But now you
know the story. No more OF
these $25-per-hour motor artists
for me. Next time I'm out Of or
der I'm going to q GARAGE.
Sincerely yours.

FEDERAL SCHOOL
AID IS DEFENDED

DR.. John r. Fitzpatrick, provost
of Columbus University, urged Fed
eral aid for public and parochial
schools last night in radio ad-
dress over Station WJSV.
Citing report of a committee
on eduaction which recommended
a $70,00O,000 appropriation in
1939I40 for elementary and Sec
ondary schools, DR.. Fitzpatrick de-
clared carrying out this recon-
mendation would not lead to Fed
eral control of schools.
DR.. Fitzpatrick said he did not
dispute "the need of an impreg-
nable Navy" and added. "but in
the haste to drive through the
ornaments program ma haste
doubtless born of necesSity-Con-
gress must not overlook the ra-
tons unarmed warrior, education,
which fights the good fight for
democracy during peace no less
than in war"
