GOOD FOR RADIO

We remember when there were
plans made by radio chains to give
the listeners of America the chance
to get the war in Europe by taking
them into the very thick of things.
They interrupted regular broadcasts
by flash news which was exciting
and sensational. This quieted down
We are glad that nothing further
was done to bring Kennewick to the
front-line cries. But radio has gone
far to carry its listeners a vivid pic
ture of the situation and has played
a prominent role in informing us
of experiences through contact with
individuals. You can be well read
through your newspapers but you
mill the tone of the voice, the elo-
quent words of kings and prime
ministers. It brings the halting
words Of children speaking to par
ents on English soil, Of personal in
terviews with people in afraid
shelters in underground London. No
picture can photograph, no newspa-
per edit, what the radio brings in
human spirit of reliance and cour-
age.

Priest Rapids Valley
Pioneer Woman Dies

WHITE BLUFFS Another pio-
neer of the Priest Rapids valley was
laid to rest in the White Bluffs
cemetery Sunday afternoon. Ida Mae
Salisbury was born May %, 1879, at
Sheridan, Wisconsin, where her
early life was spent. On August 4,
1906, she was married to David
Hartman at Hoquiam, Washington,
and in 1908 they purchased a tract
of land at Hanford. They did not
undertake development of the prop
erty at once, instead, assuming
management Of a fruit ranch in the
In-B-Tween belonging to Prof N. d.
Showalter, then state school super
intendent. In 1922 they moved from
the Showalter place to their Han
ford property and the death of her
husband eleven years later left Mrs.
Hartman, a widow.
About a year ago, her health
failed, but successful operation in
the Pasco hospital gave her hope Of
complete recovery. AS time went on,
however, another illness, which was
to prove fatal, developed and she
died Thursday morning, January 2,
at tn age of 81 years.
Funeral rites were conducted at
2 pm. Sunday at the Presbyterian
church in Hartford, the Rev. L. C.
Krug, pastor Of the Lutheran
church in White Bluffs and a
friend of thirty years, reading the
service. Mrs. Hartman was sur
vived by son, Clayton Hartman, of
Hanford, and by four brothers, all
residing in Wisconsin. IT,

day. Think back of what has been
given us in the last hundred years
and you are compelled to visualize
for the future. 1t was the begin
ming of the developing of photogra-
ply and quite a sensation there was!
Today the photo is one of the most
common of sights and almost every
home has its own camera. Will the
airplane bring oblivion to the rail-
road track as man and mail fly
from here to everywhere? Will it
put the auto where the horse is to-
day? A strain on the imagination
perhaps, but you can even picture
yourself coming back in phantom
shape to Kennewick and finding
they had repaired and paved streets
and sidewalks, torn down unsightly
billboards, erected neat mail boxes
and cleaned up the alleys. You can't
tell what a hundred earswill do!

BE QUIET

An acquaintance remarks, $50
many people dying of heart trouble"
We comment and forget all about
it as we hurriedly 60 on with some
thing or other. Always there is
something or other and pretty soon
the tired body and exhausted heart
just stops doing something or other
and we go into print as a lesson for
someone else who won't heed the
warning. Why can't we relax and
take care of this inner self by al
lowing it a quiet time once in twen-
ty-four hoursl Surely we can COM
mune with ourselves once day for
a brief interval Our hearts would
not be so overworked and weary if
would take some time to pay atten-
ton to this inner self. They tell us
our pace is so rapid that our heart
isn't able to Withstand the strain.
How anxious is the business man to
keep his office in running condition.
The housewife works to keep her
home in order. We all wash our
bodies that we may be clean and all
the time fail to keep order within
ourselves. Being so busy doing some
thing or other we haven't time to
just sit and think. Let us begin to-
morrow to give ourselves a quiet
time and if we want to sit and think
of courage for the day, blessings to
be wrought or just not think at all
that will help the heart and the
spirit Of man.

subjects who by all means honorable

subjects VINO by all means honorable
were defending their native land.
Thus it was that foreign termites
found it an easy matter to build dis
sention and divisions detrimental to
a united defense. In fact, the foe
was given so free hand in all these
unfortunate lands that their gov
ernmental functions became confus-
ed and ineffective.
This unhappy condition of ma
tional affairs in Europe is certainly
not only a warning but a mandate
that the citizens of our United
States do not become victims of in
trigue and political dishonesty. It
can happen here
Thankful we are that America
has not been carried away by sub
versive movements of whatever ism.
We have not lost our heads and I'M
tied we must stay lest our heads be
cut off by foreign foe.
God has richly blessed America -
a land where everybody can write
and speak his mind, where lawful
assembly is not prohibited, where
worship of God is every persons
heritage, where military or any 9TH
er class will not push one off the
sidewalk. It is truly a country of
freedom.
May God grant that this fair land
which we love and cherish shall
never be faced with day of mourn
ing. May our institutions always
stand firm in the face of adversely.

The spirit of accomplishment and
victories purposful living isn't
thing that comes to an individual
from the outside. It is an inner force
that determines the attitude and the
manner in which the individual will
meet all hardships and reverses. It
is difficult to defeat such man.
The fortune of many years work
may be taken from him by reverses
but within he is still the same cour-
ageous being. His courage and his
faith is not built on material poss-
essions. It is the thing that has
made his possessions possible.

A STARTER

A STARTER
So you want to develop your per-
sonality? A wise man says to get up
as soon as you awaken and to be
wide awake when you do get up.
This will be difficult for the fellow
who doesn't get going until after his
morning cup of coffee. We are adj
vised to start the day with a smile,
and as wise as it may be, 1t Is Oft
en- difficult to squeeze out anything
so cheerful until about noon. As a
good day-starter, say something
nice to the wife. There is sound
sense in breathing deeply the good,
fresh air into the bottom Of the
lungs. This Is something easy and
we will try that. But there will be
many a man in Kennewick who
won't bother about developing per-
sonality.

The disadvantage the United

that this government has to pay
