We like to talk to the man who is
enthusiastic for the town in which
he lives. We always feel better
after having talked to such a per-
son than we do after talk with a
man who is critical and fault-find-
ing about his town. There is some
thing about the town booster that
makes US feel good toward ourself,
the town and everybody in it. We be-
lieve every one feels this way when
they hear their home town spoken
well of: If it affects you in this way
it will affect those who hear you talk
in the same way. 1t is good thing
to remember. If you can't say any
thing good about the home town,
don't say anything. @

The new name wished onto the
park recently after so many years
of ANONYMITY seems to have taken
well with the general public, altho
one or two objections have been
raised. The principal objection
seems to have been that this dis
trict already has enough Indian
names, that the Indians never did
anything to develop the country,

A new thought in the present eco
nomic situation was suggested last
week in an address by Homer Rainey
president of the University Of Tex
as, who stated that 100000 marriages
had been delayed because youths
between the ages of l6 and "a were
unable to find employment. "Tuis
delay" Rainey said, may break
down the normal family relation
shipand, more important, youth may
begin to question theability of our
democratic way of life to cope with
these questions" q

Rest is not idleness, and to lie
sometimes on the grass under the
trees on a summers day, listening
to the murmur of water, or watch

is by no means waste OF time.

There is an expression among
aviators known as flying blind" It
means that the fog is so heavy that
the ground cannot be seen and the
pilot must grope his way along with
no little uncertainty as to where he
is going or how he is going to land.
Shoppers who attempt to do their
trading in a store that does not adj
vertise are likewise flying blind"
They hunt and grope their way
about the stock trying to find what
they desire. How much better, how
much more convenient is it to sit
down in the home and read the
choice offerings of a store in its adj
vertisement in the local paper. What
time saver a good, well written adj
vertiSement is. What an apprecia-
ton of the service thus rendered a
prospective buyer has for the mer-
chant who adopts this modern
method of making shopping easier.

During the World war German
owned property in the United
States to the amount Of 5000, 000,-
600 was impounded by the United
States government. Eighty percent
of this was subsequently released to
its owners. The Harrison Act of
1884 prohibited the release of the
balance unless and until Germany
should pay her war debt to this
country. If Germany does not pay
her war debt the impounded prop
erty and money in the amount of
$50, 100000 will be turned over to
Americans whom Germany owes,
but has not paid. If she does pay
her war debt the money will be
turned to the German government.

Recently Jesse Jones was asked by
Senator Adams, of Colorado, what
the losses would be on the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation
loans, if they would run as hign as
20 percent. The federal loan adj
ministration said, II am ashamed
to say what the losses will be. If any
one is making loans on a more lib
eral basis than we are they are not
loans, they will be grants" The dis
cussion came up when it was known
the RF'C was foreclosing on twelve
million dollars of loans.

AT IT AGAIN

AL IL AGA1N
There is usually some sort of ar
gument under way concerning the
custody, welfare or earnings of the
famous Dione children. The most
recent is that the father takes to
court a demand that DR.. Dafoe
make an accounting of all money
earned through advertisers who OBJ
tanned the privilege of using the
names of the children and also that
of DR.. Dafoe. These youngsters have
made money and will continue to do
so long as advertisers feel they are
good copy" But will their lives con-
tinue to hold arguments concern
ing earning? Probably so. Perhaps
there is lot of glamour in the sur
rounding of public attention and
universal interest. But does this ex-
traordinary existence lineup fav-
orably with the local Kennewick
child's up-bringing, where his pic
ture appears in the family album
rather than a magazine, endorsing
soap or baby powder?
