Big Crowd Picnics
At Kennydale, Wn.

The First Baptist church of Ken
nydale, Washington, led by the
Rev. Judson Swancy. coaxed hun
dreds of men, women and Riddles
to forget their cares and spend
the day romping on the green at
the little church by the road.
And come they did. not singly,
in couples, but in batallions. The
staid little town wondered from
whence come so many people? All
day long they came, away into
the night and none felt inclined to
leave. Their joy was unconfined.
The little church by the road
rose in all its glory. No host ever
equalled the occasion more. COM
pletely and more gracefully than
the First Baptist Church of Ken
nydale.
To climax the glory of the little
church, the Rev. Emmett B. Reed,
pastor of the Calvary Baptist
church of Spokane, Wash, re-
turned to join the celebrants on
the most fitting occasion of its
whole existence. The host anticip-
ating the return of it's son, awaited
his presence with the fatted calf.
1t was happy reunion. 1t was
here in the First Baptist church
of Kennydale that the Rev. E. &.
Reed, who now holds a high posi-
ton in Baptist circles, was elevat-
ed to the pulpit and sent forth on
his Cody mission. Tt was tale
twice told.
The Riddles under the masterful
direction of Mrs. A. w. Kessler
and so able assisted by Mrs. Mabel
Gathley, displayed talent well fit
ted for their elders. The artistic
manner of the ladies in drawing
from the youngsters such fine dra-
matte art was amazing in itself.
The pastor, Rev. Judson Swancy,
said, 1.-THE entire congregation is
overjoyed at the fine spirit of all
who so willingly gave that the lit
tie church by the road should win
a place in Gods good grace.
Peace Be unto You. The First
Baptist church of Kennydale,
Wash, will place your names in
it's Hall of Fame, to rest in its
archives as long as it shall live.
Even the night was filled with
music and words of praise. Good
Will entered the hearts of all WIS.,
itors who came from far and near
to share the Feast in the Wilder
ness.
Friends of God and the church
have promised to point and dress
up the little church by the road.
Here a cordial
welcome always awaits you"

George Cordas & Sons,
Quality Clothes Shop

Perhaps the most inviting and
complete store in the Northwest is
George Cordas & Sons, located in
the old historic Butler Hotel, cor
ner of second and James street.
Its attractiveness is due to the
fact that the interior decorations
is the result of the creative mind
of a member of our own race. If
for no other reason than seeing
this artistic creation, a visit to
their store would be worth while.
A well stocked store featuring a
line of quality shoes, mems fur
nishings at fair prices, emphasizes
this work of art. Van Huesen
shirts, Ports hats, holeproof no.
siery for men and Durham De Luxe
hosiery for women and many other
items too numerous to mention
makes this store complete.
Do you like to ride? If so, their
English and Cowboy boots, Levi
riding overalls and Frontier model
riding pants would make your hob
by real pleasure. For those who
fancy sport wear they show a
beautiful line of Stacks, sport coast
and jackets in colors pleasing to
the most discriminating.
If you swim or indulge in sun
baths they show ever imaginable
variety of trunks, all priced so
reasonable it is hardly possible to
leave that store without satisfying
your innermost wish.

Campfire Sparks

Although the beginning of the
summer vacation left some gaps
in our ranks, nevertheless, a full
program of summer activities lies
ahead of us. Mr.. Dover, our Scout

First Aid course, and will also soon
begin to teach us the Jr. Red Cross
Life Saving course.

troop members appearing at the
Court of Honor for Second Class
rank. The fact that six of the eigh-
teen candidates for Second Glass
and three of the six highest rank
ing in the test were from our troop,
brought some remarks of high
commentator from the Court Of
ficials.
Although not officially connected
with either the staff or committee
of our troop, this ex-scoutmaster
annd ex-scout has been untiring
and unfailing in his interest and
efforts to help get us into uniform;
make a fine showing in the courts
of honor, and aid us in our general
progress. 1t is the unselfish, vol
untary service of men like this that

IAN indispensable link in national

to c. D. Curtiss, chief of the con-
troll division of the Public Roads

fense requires that material be

interference with civilian cars and
trucks, Mr.. Curtiss said.
He emphasized that planning is
essential in an armament and mo-
oilization program such as that now
before u.s. Agitation for super

tion and uniflcation of trafiic rules
among the various States more
pressing than ever. Mr.. Williams
declared.
mo longer are we dealing only
with habitual travelers-we are
transplanting whole populations, :"
he explained. Tens Of thousands
OF troops from the East and Middle
West are in Southern training
camps.
TT is difficult problem at best,

that meat is especially rich in certain

POWER PROMISES PROGRESS

We sometimes fail to recognize that
modern civilization depends upon the pos
session of adequate power.
This is brought forcibly to mind by
Arthur H. Compton, famous physicist, in a
recert issue of The Rotarian Magazine,
when he points out that it would take eight
million galley slaves to propei the giant
liner Queen Mary. He says that a modern
locomotive pulls as much as twenty-five
thousand men and thet while century ago
it too three hours Of a farmers time to
rails a buahel of wheat, it now takes less
than ten minutes.
The scientist points out t. at we have
hardly begun to enjoy the power age.
Our best method of consuming coal, oil
and gas use but a fraction of their power.
We nave hardly started to harness the
waterfalls of our mountains, the winds that
blow over us, the ideS of our seas. The
enormous energy resources that we find in
the atoms suggest a future as incredible to
us as the present would have been to the
past.
This statement ought to answer those
who have been led to believe that, with so
many marvellous things, the human race
has about reached its peak. AS the world
famous scientist says, within the fifty
years past our ways of living have been al
tered more than in the twenty centuries
preceding and with new energies at our
fingertips, even greater changes are in
prospect"

TT's AN ACCIDENT"

It's an accident" is phrase that
explains the death of $4,000 Americans
last year and the injury of 100000 ad-
ditiOnal citizens.
Experts are studying every day to
discover methods of avoiding accidents on
the highways, in factories, in homes, on
farms and in schools. Their work de-
serves the cooperation of every intelligent
person. This means that we should at
tempt to take advantage of all suggestions
which might enable US to avoid ac-
cidentS.
