Weed Killer War on Poison Ivy
Best Started Now

Poison ivy is for the birds. Our
feathered friends have a penchant
for the berries of this weed. They
enjoy the white or cream colored
berries as delicacy, one of the
main reasons this noxious pest
is lushest along fences where
birds are likely to roost.
State highway departments are
now making every effort to chem
ically eliminate the plant. The
home owner having valuable trees,
shrubs and flowers should go all
out at this time, too, to rid his
grounds of the ivy.
Such is the advice of M. w.

was expected that the board would
act upon the retirement request
of DR.. Jones. The new president
was genuinely surprised by the ac-
tion and visibly moved.
In a brief statement following
her elevation, DR.. Player said: ~
would like to feel that the college
would go forward on the same
basis as that upon which it was
founded and upon which it has
been so successfully advanced by
President Jones. l will do my best
to carry on in this tradition"

RESOLUTION OF RESPECT
IN MEMORY OF
C. L. Horton


Once again a Brother Mason,
having completed the designs
written for him on Life's Trestle
Board, has passed through the
Portals of Eternity and entered
the Grand Lodge of the New
Jerusalem and hath received as
his reward the White Stone with
the new name written thereon;
And whereas, the All-Wise and
Merciful Master of the Universe
has called from labor to refresh
ments our beloved and respected
Brother, and he having been a
true and respected member of our
beloved Order;
Therefore be it resolved, that
Roosevelt Lodge No. 100, A. F. &
A. M. of Savage, Montana, in
testimony of her loss, be draped
in mourning for thirty days, and
that we tender the family of our
deceased Brother our sincere con-
doience in their deep affliction
and that a copy of these resolu-
tons be sent to the family;
And further be it resolved, that
a copy of these resolutions be
spread on the minutes of Roose-

Richland, village of $50 persons
which stood 80 miles downriver
from Hanford and White Bluffs,
survived its sister communities
and the tickle prosperity of the
era. 1t expanded and absorbed
it's new people until today it is
one of the largest cities in east
ern Washington.
Because of the almost complete
absence of facilities for caring
for its increased population in
the early days of the Hanford
project, the responsibility of pro-
viding the necessities of a big
town was placed with the plant
contractor, in those days, E. 1

tractor to the Army Engineers.
The essential activities of {
municipality - police and fire

sary utilities and ~recreational IA

normal departments of most CT
ties in the nation; everything from
public works and safety, to park

BY Bill jury
General Electric News Bureau
HanfOrd Atomic Plant
Seldom in American history
have three neighboring villages
seen such violent change as Han
ford. White Bluffs and Richland
in southeastern Washington dur
ing the infancy of the Atomic
Age.
One of the tiny communities
beloved almost overnight into
a brawIing boom town and quick
~ faded away and was lost to
the desert wind and sand.
The second villge was swallow
ed UP, its value as a potential or
chard center overshadowed by the
need for an atomic energy plant
site.
The third outlived the roaring
boom period and since has grown
into an unincorporated city Of
$1,000 persons, its future secure
as a business and residential area
for atomic plant personnel.
Deep inside the barricadec
boundaries of the Hanford atomic
energy project today lies the rem
nants of the town which nee wa.
given great promise Of becoming
a leading producer of orchard
crops. The town was Whit,
Bluffs.
Once a small orchard commu
nifty on the banks Of the majesti
Columbia, it since has been alb
sorbed by the sprawling, bustlin
Hanford project. Now it is
crossroad in the center of a 600
square-mile government reserva
ton where General Electric com
pany operates the Hanford plu
tonium plant for the Atomi
Energy Commission.
The town which gave its nam
to the Hanford project also wa
a quiet community of 800 pei
sons before its selection as a sit
for the huge atomic energy plar
turned it into one of the bigge:
boom towns the West has eve
known.
More than $4,000 persons, con
prising workers and their fam
lies, moved into the area early
1943 to help construct giant plal
facilities. They were people fro
all over the country, %recruite
from wartime labor markets

When their job was complete
most of them moved on. Tho.
