The Washington's birthday pro gram was given in the sehool assem bly room and the children did the.r parts well. The exercises and drills by the little folks seemed to be the main attraction although the character or the work put on by all the grades and high school were of a high ord er. The songs by the third and fourth, fifth and sixth were well re ceived and the concert recitation by the seventh and eighth grades show ed excellent preparation. The high school was represented by Blanch Imus, Mildred Duncan and Nona Rands. The Glee club, consisting of the seventh and eighth grades and high school students entertained with a number of songs. No attempt was made to produce a finished program. The exercises pertained to birthdays of noted men in the month of February, notably Washington, Lincoln, Lowell and Ed ison, and grew out of work incidental to class room. That these exercises are growing in interest is noted by the increasing number of visitors who attend them. Come again, patrons, we appreciate your interest in our work. On the sixth of September I started to school. The birds were a singing and the weather was cool. We took up our books and studied them hard, For we knew at the close we would get our reward. Some of the girls' faces were smear ed with powder, Which was much scorned by our good Mrs. Crowder. And some of the boys who had much yet to learn, Would pass up their looks without much concern.

Ballenger i Boardman - Oregon X Large Portion of Hay Shipped M-inv minors as to the actual hay situation in the state of Washington j have been circulated and with a view of correcting this condition and be lieving that accurate inforriation It I of general public value, the North west Hay Association has just com-; pleted a careful survey of the situ ation. In examining the records of the railway shipments it appears that y.J percent of the hay of Yakima Valley Is shipped over the Northern Pacific and that the record of this railway can be taken as a fair barometer to the hay movement. The average far movement for the past three years over this line from Easton to Pasco, for the season, July 1, to June 30, of the succeed ing year Is 1 4291 cars and that the lowest figure for any year was uion. , That during the average year about one-third moves before Janu- ary 1 , and two-thirds after. That prior to January 1, 1923,1 there had been shipped over this line 5733 cars as compared to 5548 cars for the preceeding season. A very careful district survey ob tained to date shows that there is now in this territory not to exceed 00 cars of which both the Mil waukee and O. W. will take some toll. This will mean that if every ton available is shipped that the valley will establish a new low figure of hay movement .his se?son. In the Yakima Valley and the Wal ln Walla Valley and that part of Oregon shipping through the Wallula gap there is available less tiian 7 000 cars, muc'.i of which hay is unfit tor shipment. it must he borne In mind that last season there was a practical clean up of hay and thre was much nay earn aged during the last summer. It is not unusual to see a smm. carry-over of hav in an occasional season but the present situation does not Justify the assumption of a carry o. cr this year.
