Most Of our difficulties Of an eco
nomic nature are self-created. For
example most persons with little
or nothing today. have, in the past
earned sufficient, which If it had
been wisely invested would have
provided for all Of their needs. Most
persons waste and fritter away
enough time with foolish and petty
trifles to give themselves good
broad education through reading
and study. Our soil is run down and
depleted in fertility In many sec
tons of the country through wind
and water erosion and over CROP
ping until 1t will not pay to till
It until fertility has been restored.
Our fine forests have been laid
waste with a hand of ruthless sense
less greed and no effort made at
ref0restation until we have vast
areas Of waste cut over land that
might be producing a valuable re-
source for which is such need in
this country bodybuilding ma
terial. Even with all our boosted
intelligence we still live on the basis
Of a feast and a famine-lve It up
while we have it and want for it
when we have none.

Is TT FREEDOM?

The man, acquitted for the mercy
killing of his 16-year-old imbecile
son, is planning upon adopting a
child to take the place Of this 9TH
er boy whom he loved so much. The
jury freed him of the charge and
the father who faced trial for his
life is ready to face the world, a
"free man." We do not know, here
in Kennewick whether society. Is
appeased with this decision. There
has always been talk on the right
and wrong Of mercy killings
There are many cases when it has
seemed justifiable and humane, but
we pray there should be q law
where physicians could control and
give the relief. There are others
who feel that those mentally unfit
who are a danger to society, should
be put out Of the way. It is mo-
mentous question and one perhaps
never to be considered officially.
But this released father who has
been forgiven by law, for his act,
and Vic is planning upon begin
ming a new life, Is ne free man:
The heart will be heavy though the
mind is convinced Of justice and OF
doing right. A sorrowful memory
will never free him, perhaps.

It has always seemed to us that
the practice Of washing early po-
tatoes from the Kennewick district
has been something Of q racket
. chance. perhaps for the ware
houses to help pay their overhead
expense, With the early shp-skin
varieties raised here the practice Is
far more harmful to the spuds than
tho slight damage q little sand
sticking to potato could be. In 9TH
e. sections, where the heavier soil
spoils the appearance Of the spud
on te market 1t IS a different
story, probably. At any rate the
ruling Is not one made by the de-
partment Of agriculture the director
assures us. In some years that $3.50
charge for washing means the diff
ference between profit and loss to
the farmer. = ''~ -

THEY ARE STILL WITH US

There was a hope for most men,
that with the change of seasons
there might be a change in the
hair-do and a greater change in the
feminine hats. One male designer
Of millinery, states that he fears
husbands who usually greet him
with insulting and plying glances.
No wonder! Perhaps we expect too
much, but We hoped that there
would come great awakening for
women in Kennewick who wear
their hair as absurd as fashion dc
tates and buy hats that perch on
the top Of heads like postage
stamps. But should we complain.
when they have given to industry

old-fashioned hat-pin has come

wells are flowing and free. It helps

Of old, this country may come in for
q real boom. These present styles
may be becoming to some, they may
be also a welcome to the jaded
tastes Of a sophisticated society,

TOWN BAND

Recent items printed in these
columns tell of the effort being
made at White Bluffs to reorgan-
lie the band. This institution was
managed and directed by F. A. Eng
fish for many years and brought no
little attention to the community.
In fact, it has been the most out
standing publicity feature the dis
trict has had and 1t seemed shame
20 lose It. The band from up the
river has always been one OF the
features Of the Kennewick celebra-
lions where they have made a de-
cided hit.
The band In the past has been
composed Of youngsters nearly all OF
whom were taught to play by Mr..
English who also acted as direct
or and manager. His unselfish de-
votion to the group week after
week, has, we feel, not received the
appreciation he deserved until the
community found Itself without its
famous band. Now the Parent
TEACHER Association Is lending help
to re-organize and we sincerely
hope they are successful. :
One Of Kennewick's old-tme banc
enthusiasts has often made the
statement that "the boy who blows
. horn will never blow a safe" At
any rate the training the boys and
girls win get from their band work
win never hurt them and we hope
they can again come to Kennewlck.
