etc., and miniature opera glasses.
The gun collection ranged from
eight rifles to a small cap pistol
which 1t. Gest said was taken
from q German farmer and was
of Boer War vintage.
Outstanding was a set Of fine
Bavarian china. More usual but
interesting items included money
of all descriptions, both paper and
coin, bill folds, German books,
cigarettes, and pair Of wooden
shoes. An old fashioned bee1
stein was included.
There were several German ra-
ton books. These differed from
our books In that spaces were
provided and the stamps were
pasted in when purchases were
made. A gas mask appeared to
be well made. These were pro-
vided all civilians.
Another unusual item was the
lens from q pill box periScope.
One Of the books was profusely
illustrated. Il was q propaganda
book which was supposed to de.
scribe to the outstanding German
people the loose living and lack OF

pie.

Activity Grows
n Support d
Highland Protest

Enthusiasm that Is, running
high throughout this area for the
Kennewick Highlands irrigation
project is reflected in q telegram
received by the Courier-Reporter
yesterday from Senator Hugh
Mitchell who says:
Thought you might like to
know favorable progress being
made on Kennewick Highlands ir-
rigation project. Will continue my
efforts to help and will advise
progress made"
That is welcome news to the
many who have long worked for
this project along with the word
earlier in the week that the entire
Washington Democratic delegation
in CONGRESS is solidly back Of the
project. Fourth District Congress-
man Hal Holmes has been sup
porting the project.
Here on the home front progress
is also being recorded. Last Friday
H. A. Parker, Reclamation Bureau
engineer, was here with three
assistants who looked over the
project. He reported that a crew
will be in the field on October 3
to complete the survey.
The Irrigation Projects commit
tee is carrying on an intensified
campaign to get large number OF
signers on petition asking for ap-
prevail and construction Of the
project. That the project is wanted
by a 100 per cent majority Of To-
cal citizens is seen in the willing
ness Of everyone approached to
sign.
Monday night members Of the
committe appeared at q mass
meeting called in Benton City for
the purpose Of discussing the pro-
ject. They were met with an en-
thusiastic group at the community
hall, all Of whom signed the pet-
lions and expressed the opinion
that some Of the finest crops to
come under the new bitches VIII
be grown in the fertile Behton-
Kiona region.
The local COMMITTEES wishes to
have the petitions signed as rap
idly as possible and asks all restd-
ents that have not yet had an OPP
portunity to sign BY the first OF
the week. Petitions are being cir.
culated and can be found In most
stores and offices.
On Tuesday In answer to . r.
quest from the Yakima Chamber
Of Commerce, committee members

went to Yakima where they dis
cussed the project with the friga-
