KITCHEN SALES COACH FREE LECTURES AT HERMISTON I OFFICERS ELECTED FOR WILL VISIT HERMISTON JUNE 15 UNION CHURCH BY DR. CONDER. Housewives of Hermiston and surrounding towns will have an op portunity next Thursday, June 15, to inspect the novel all electric tra veling kitchen which will make its appearance on Hermiston streets through arrangements made by the Hermiston Light & Power Co., Gen eral Electric distributors here. “This kitchen on wheels is equipped with all the latest labor- saving devices for the home", said John A. Clarke, manager of the lo cal light company. “With similar rolling kitchens now being con structed, it is expected to do much toward revolutionizing kitchens of American homes. "The purpose of bringing the General Kitchen coach to Hermiston is to stimulate interest of house wives in kitchen modernization. Every housewife, we believe, will want to inspect this novel traveling kitchen, because it is the latest word, not only in kitchen applian ces, but in arrangement, as well. "We will drive the kitchen coach up and down various streets of the residential sections of the city in order that housewives of Hermiston may conveniently inspect the coach and its arrangement.” Arrangements have been made with Jim Pearson, owner of Black & White Service Station, to locate the coach near the south side of his service station, both afternoon and evening, so that the people from surrounding towns may have an op portunity to see this “Dream Kitch en”. The traveling coach is equipped with various electric appliances, in cluding refrigerator, range, dish- washer, clock, ventilating fan, ra dio, food mixer, toaster, percolator, washing machine, ironer and novel lighting. It has a built-in break- fast nook and kitchen work desk. Monel metal is used for the sink, while the arrangement of cabinet and storage space has been scienti fically worked out. The power unit of the coach is furnished by Reo. The General Electric Kitchen Insti tute. which designed the coach in terior, has been requested to work out plans to modernize thousands of kitchens throughout the country and this service is offered gratis to all home owners.

Officers were electer as follows: I. H. Ebert, Echo, president; R. F. Williams, Irrigon, vice president; Lloyd Russell, Stanfield, secretary; and H. B. Hull, Umatilla, treasurer. Following the election of officers a report from the Hermiston club in troduced a resolution to add a clause to the proposed constitution that "no action be taken by the as sociation without the unanimous consent of all member clubs." Such a clause it was said, would paralyze the business of the association.

All interest accrued on unpaid balances shall be collected at the time each instalment is paid. Any instalment not paid on its due late shall draw a 2 per cent penal ty. Section three states: “Whenever three instalments of such delinquent taxes charged against any tract of real property. Including personal property taxes charged thereon, shall be past due, the tax collector shall Issue to the county a certifi cate of delinquency.
