WORKING THEIR WAY

To say our young people are ex-
pecting to start in where their ia
Their is after many years of work, is
wrong if the claim is too general.
There are more than 40 percent of
college men who are working their
way through school and this is a
good way for them to find out how
tough the struggle was for Dad.
The educators tell us that too many
young people attend college who are
mentally unequipped and would be
better off in the business world
earning living. This is no doubt
true in many cases, but we figure
the student who is working his way
through is not in this class, usual
ly. He is ambitious and determined
to learn and the fact that he is do
ing two jobs at one time will find
him the winner. Our hats are off
TO those lads who so desire an edu-
cation that they are willing to get
it the hard way.

everywhere it is wise to profit by
the mistakes Of our neighbors. It Is a
fact that most autos are stolen for

for resale. Many cars are borrowed

the road after they have served
their purpose. This is the reason
most cars are recovered. But why

The dairy business in Benton
county has been on the decline for
several years. During the depress-
ion. the unequal prices received for
dairy products as against the cost of
feeds, caused many of the dairymen
to dispose of their herds and get
out of the business. Some slight
pickup has been indicated recently,
but the high class producing COW is
still in the minority. Too many far
mers still have cows that fail to
pay their keep. Too many farmers
fail to keep adequate records so
proving this fact. Too many farm
ers find it impossible to pay the
high rates required for the high
producing strains. The way out is
being offered through the FSA's
plan Of cooperative ownership of
high grade SireS. Here, while a
slower process, is the way for the
farmer to get more for his feed and
labor than he now receives through
the "boarder" cattle he millEs daily.
There is serious need for this i'm
provement. It deserves serious re-
Election.

supposedly depicting the intimate
lie Of the lower class immigrant
into this country, we are stronger
than ever in our opinion that dras-
tic changes should be made in the
laws which permit citizens Of other
countries entrance here. We have
thought for some time that natives
OF other countries who come here
to make living in the new world
should be given a reasonable length
Of time-a year, or so-in which
to make up their minds as to wheth-
er they want to stay here. Then, If
they do not apply for citizenship
deport them.
We are also inclined to the idea
that free speech and freedom Of
action Is all right for citizens of
this country only. Foreigners should
not be allowed the same privileges
which citizens of this country may
enjoy as matter Of right.
And while it may sound l1eartless,
We also feel that none but citizens
should receive support from public
funds.
And by the same token. we believe
that American citizens who wish to
travel in or invest funds in foreign
lands should do so entirely at their
own risk.

BETTER PARENTS


As We try not to overlook the var
ious weeks" that 60 to make bet
ter business, we are sure to observe
the week of October 1923 that is set
aside for the observance of Better
Parenthood which is most worthy
of comment. OF course there are
many who feel they couldn't be any
better parents if they tried! The
fact that you can acquire tips for
raising your children from most
everyone in Kennewick doesn't mean
you are poor parent. So often the
other person sees little things that
the parents eyes of love refuses to
see. The wise parent is willing to
listen to suggestions, to read of So
lrrtions of problem cases which have
been solved successfully by someone
else. The parent who feels the best
way to rear his family is to let them
express their initiative and person.
atty unrestrained, often find they
have reared children who "know it
all" The mother who uses psychol-
ogy to the extreme often awakens to
the fact that the open palm might
prove more effective and character
forming. A parent can go just so
far and from there the child takes
over. The wise parent tries to cope
with the situation as long as he is
In power. The patient parent seems
to be the most successful, and the |
father and mother who hold their |
tempers when correcting are the |
victors. The ones who praise as well |
as punish are closest to their young.
Who are we to tell how to better
parents? Everyone in Kennewick
knows in his heart, that better par
ents make better children. better
children make better Americans,
and good Americans are as neces-
sary to the living as bread and wa
ter to the starving.
