Three passengers in coupe from
Ellensblrg to Walla Walla, q man

the fatal accident. The driver run
ming at high rate of speed COM
ing onto the bridge, careened into
the railing, bounced to the other
side and then back. In the mean
time the drived attempted to Jump

her foot. She was dragged several
hundred feet and crushed before
the other occupants of the car man

The pictures Of the sixteen
candidates appearing In today's
paper were taken BY Bernie Neu-
man. There being no regular
photographer In KenneWick,
Bernie volunteered his services
as strictly an amateur. We feel
that he did . fine Job Of pic
ture taking, especially as he has
had little experience in portrait
sittings. They say q camera

It's the talk of tie town!

It's the talk OF tie town!
Women throughout the commun-
ity are planning to attend the
friendly class for home-makers, the
Motion Picture Cooking School,
scheduled to open at the Liberty
theatre, June 20.
A welcome invitation to the wise
is sufficient, and the only invitation
eeded for this novel cooking school
is that extended to every woman by
The ourier-Reporter. There Is no
charge to see any Of the showings
Of "Star in My Kitchen"
Because this newspaper stands
ready to sponsor all progressive de-
velopments, particularly when they
affect the homes Of the community,
it is presenting this motion pic
ture romance Of home-making en-
tirely free.

she mixes and handles her pie
crust"
That comment has been heard
from beginners and from more ex-
perienced cooks at many cooking
schools. Grazing necks and anxious
eyes, trained on the stage from the
sides and back of the demonstration
hall, have failed to catch all of the
important steps In pastry-making
and other culinary arts. Only the
early birds in the very front row
have had closeup of the stage in
the past, and even they couldn't
peer directly into the mixing bowl.
Now the wizardry Of the camera
has solved the problem, making it
possible for every person in the Lib
erty theatre to share each fascin-
ating stage of the planning, measur-
ing, blending, and baking in practi-
cal, up-to-date kitchens.
Keeping pace with the baking,
roasting and frying, series of SAL
ads and frozen delicacies will pa
rade in and out of the adaptable
electric refrigerator, which will re-
veal its host of possibilities for SIM
plifying labor and marketing, and
contributing to good health and

There seems to be no doubt now
but that the Umatilla Dam will be
built and that work will start early
this winter. The project, portion
of the ultimate development Of the
Columbia river, has long been q
dream Of settlers In this section OF
the Northwest and lately one Of the
major community efforts.
Step by step the project has been
battled through all sorts Of legal
obstacles until today approval has
been secured from all branches OF
the service right up to the presi-

ton bill was placed before him yes

red the matter to J. D. Ross. federal
power administrator for the Bonnie

Ross gave the project his endorse
ment, but wanted to include the
provision for power development.
Ross advised the president that
power should be provided at one
dam In the Columbia, preferably al
Umatilla, and one on the Snake
river. The president made no prom
ises, the administrator said. He add
ed that the projects sponsors had
eliminated immediate power de.
velopment because they feared Il

The completion Of the dam
would provide slack water transpor.

would become a lake in effect, with
