THE MOTHERS CLUB
ENTERTAINS HUSBANDS
Superintendent Henry lkdivers In
teresting Address at Annual Ban
quet of Pullman Mothers
lull
The members of the Pullman
Mothers club entertained their hus
bands at the annual banquet Monday
evening in the Methodist church.
Mrs. George Severance, president of
the club, was mistress of ceremonies.
The principal address was delivered
by Superintendent Charles Henry of
the local schools, who took as his
subject, "America's Most Serious
Problem." This problem, he ex
plained, is the education of the chil
dren of the nation, and the people
believed that this problem had been
solved until the draft net proved that
only one young man in four was able
to read a newspaper Intelligently.
He pointed to the Pullman Mothers
club and kindred organizations as
factors which should and must take
a prominent part in the campaign
for more adequate education for the
youth of the commonwealth. "I
hope that you will see to it that with
in the next in years state and na
tional legislation will be effective
which will make it possible for each
person to secure as much education
as he Is qualified for," he said.
Superintendent Henry expressed
disappointment at the defeat In the
present legislature of the school code
which he believes would have proved
a healthy step toward more adequate
education for the children of the
state of Washington. He urged thai
all citizens interested in the public
schools of the state become acquaint
ed with the provisions and intents of
the code during the next two year:'.
Ec that in 1923 popular sentiment
may result in the adoption of the
pre-ent draft or another practical
code.
In dealing with the problems which
front the local school district.
No. 50, he pointed out that while the
district includes 10 per cent of the
school children of the county, it rep
resents but two and one-half per cent
of the valuation of the county.
An Interesting history v.i the lo
cal club, from the time of its or
ganization in 1013 to th" present
time, was read by Mrs. H. II George,
one (,' the charter members. Tin
club now claims 7 7 members. In
exemplifying its motto. "Come, let
us live with our child!"'' '.' the or
ganization has accomplished much
good and is recognised as one of tno
most progressive women's organisa
tions of the community. ft is hop
.'n tie near future that th" work ot
the c'.ub may i> • departmentalize!,
tl. i . enabling .»a;;a member to devoto
her attention to that par' of the work
which most concerns her.
Miss Helen .tones of Portland,
Ore., sang "Thanks to Thee, Angelic
Voice," by Puncelli, and "Sunday,"
by Bharms, She was accompanied
by Miss Helen Price of Portland,
Ore. Both young ladies are students
in the school of music at the State
College.

PULLMAN SPORTSMEN
TO PROTECT game
Organization Effected in Interests of
Game and Sports
men
A Pullman Game Protective as
sociation was organized Tuesday
night by the sportsmen of the Pull
man community, with Kenneth Car
ter, deputy game warden, as perma
nent president. The organization
will have a membership of over 75
and meetings will be held monthly.
The object of the association is to
assist in the propagation and protec
tion of game birds in Whitman coun
ty, especially the eastern half, and
to present to the county game com
mission the views of the sportsmen
of this community in regard to open 1
and closed seasons. Under the new- ,
game laws almost unlimited control
of the upland game birds is vested
ii: the county game commissions, and
as this part of the county is not rep
resented on the Whitman county com
mission the need for a local game as- i
sociation was thought to be urgent
to protect the Interests of the birds
and the sportsmen.
A committee including Dr. J. W.
Kalkus. F. A. Masek and Karl Allen
was named to draft by-laws and out
line a program for the association.
These will be presented to the mem
bership at a meeting two weeks
hence, to "which the county game
warden, 11. W. Terhune of St. John,
and the members of the game com
mission will be invited.

SILENT SALESMAN MUST GO
Judge McCroskey ruled in the
Price Cochran case on Wednesday
morning That the "silent salesman"
as used is a gambling device and
Mr. Cochran was fined $25 for per
mitting the device to be used in his
pool room. Two Tekoa cases have
been pending for some time in jus
tice court waiting a decision. Pros
ecuting Attorney Weldon and the
sheriff's office put a stop to the use
of "silent salesmen" early in De
cember, but the manufacturers of
the device employed an attorney and
arguments were submitted to the
court in the form of briefs. The
outcome of the case has been
watched with considerable interest
by pool room and confectionery

TRIBUTE TO PRESIDENT
PREFACE TO SERMON
"Let Us Give Him a Large Place in !
Our Hearts,*' Says Pastor of
President Harding
As a preface to his sermon last
Sunday the Rev. C. X. Curtis of the
Federated churches spoke the follow- i
ing words of wisdom concerning the j
inauguration of President Harding: I
"The week that has just closed
has set a new milestone in our na
tion's history. it witnessed the
transferring of authority from one i
great man to another. The heart of |
America ought to be generous in her
love and grateful in her memory for
a life that time shall set among the
world's truly great.
"And now as Mr. Harding takes up
the reins of government let us as
loyal Americans in the spirit of the I
Golden Rule gladly give him a large
place in our heart and be unstinting
In our sympathetic support of the
one the nation has honored with the
most powerful position on ea_rth.
"Mr. Harding, not the patrician
like Washington, nor the man mould
ed by cosmopolitan associations like
Mr. Roosevelt, nor a scholar like Mr.
Wilson, but Mr. Harding, the repre
sentative of the average American.
His appointment ought to be a sum
mons, an advance notice, that the
future demands leadership from ev
ery walk of life—from the country
printing press as well as from the
professor's chair.
"Let us then be generous in our i
good will, charitable in our judg
ment and patient in granting time j
for the realization of his policies. In
advance, may we pledge him the sup
port of good citizens, living our lives
and doing our work day by day on j
the highest plane of thought and feel-1
ing.
"May the Great God of Democracy
guide us in our quest for democracy
and cause his blessings to rest upon
our president — Mr. Harding.
NEW RULING ON
INCOME TAXES
A new ruling has just been made
regarding Income tax returns, as in
dicated by the following telegram re
ceived Wednesday by the First Na
tional bank from Senator Poindex
ter:
"Decision just rendered by attor
ney general and treasury department
that community interests may divide
income and file separate forms in
conformity with state tax laws. All
income tax collectors have been ad
vised fully and will furnish details of
procedure to be followed.
"MILES POINDEXTER."
This means that in this state a man
and wife can each make a return for
half of their joint income. This will
reduce the tax where the joint In
come exceeds $4000.
For instance, if the net joint in
come was $8000 or more and the
husband alone made a return, he
would have to pay eight per cent and
a surtax on the amount over $4000,
whereas if both the husband and
wife make returns on $4000 each,
the tax would be held down to four
per cent.
