Members of the 1940 Jamboree committee, through careful management and because, of the extensive improvements on grounds and stands made laSt year, believe they can stage this year's show with less overhead than ever before. However, the rodeo itself will not be curtailed in nyway. In fact, the Jamboree his year seems assured of having the finest group of riders in its eight year history. The reason for this is that the Jamboree, for =he first time, will have no compet- ing show. In past years Colfax, Wash., has staged a rodeo in direct competition with the Jamboree. As a result many of the expert riders who each year corn- THE GOLDENDALEfiENTINEZ,--Goldendale ,Washington Past . . . . . . . . BY W. F. BYARS 0 July 16, 1891 [Mrs. L. C. Dickson, Chaplain; Mrs. W.

The Dalles people maintained a free ferry from Friday, noon until Sunday morning for the benefit of people wishing to attend the cele- bration, and as a con,sequence Kliek- itat county turned out almost en- masse. Why not repeat the experi- ment and make the same permanent. About 10:30 a. m., last Friday it beg~n to rain in this section. The showers were copious and quite fre- , quent for twenty-four hours. It has I freshened things u.p nicely, washing i the dust off of things and making the roads delightful. The value of the rain to the growing crops can- not be stated in round numbers. All fears of a shortage in grain are dia- pelled, Sand everybody is happy, healthy and busy. Antone Wellenbrock, of Camas Prairie, who was last week struck over the head with an ax in the hands of one Trowl, was brought into the city yesterday (Wednesday) for medical treatmen~t. Dr. Stowell on examination found the blow had fallen on the right temple, and shivered the zygoma bone. The man is quite seriously hurt. He was taken to Patron's Restaurant, and at the hour of going to press, vc~s ~esting reasonably well from the fatigue of the trip in. This is the finale of an Central Fair [Fred Malone Books Ready Funeral Held i. G. As Hen. W. R. Dunbar was busily engaged in "coloring" his rueer schaum in the quiet of his own home, and his Better-half industriously employed at some housewifely duties, last Thursday evening 9th inst., a great clamor was heard at their door as if a great crowd were br~a,king in. On rushing to the door and dis- covering a long line of ladies and gentlemen with baskets and bundles in profusion trooping in by twos and twos, they soon made up their minds that they were "surprised" and sur- rendered at once. They were not k~pt long in suspense. They were in- formed that they were "t~ken"-- the occasion being in honor of their twelfth wedding anniversary. The "invaders virtually took possession[ of things, and with conversation andI i games enjoyed themselves ,as suchI crowds will, you know, until finally the bride and bridegroom were made to stand up in the middle of the floor[ and Judge Sol Smith performed thet I ceremony--of presenting them, in a[ t nicely turned little speech, on behalf[ of their friends, a beautiful fruit l basket and a silver ladle, as a token of the esteem in which they were regarded by their friends of Cvolden- dale. Judge Dunbar was so taken ~back that his better-half could think~of nothing for him to say. He did finally articulate something that sounded like "We thank you." The baskets and bundles brought by the ladies were then opened, and ice cream ,etc. brought to light, and--- well you know how '~tis yourself!"

Is Conscription The American Way? BACK IN THE national capitol this week our senators and representatives are in the midst of the most heated debate that has rocked Washington since the slavery question. C use of all this bitter debate is a bill that if passed would provide for the first peacetime miliVary conscription in the history of the United States. This draft measure, introduced with the best wishes of the administration and endorsed by leading generals, the president of Harvard University, a number of wealthy newspaper publishers and the recent Republican additions to the cab met. Secretaries Knox and Stimson, is called a national defense measure. But, as every newspaper reader and radio listener must realize, a great number of Americans believe this peacetime con- scription is not a necessary national defense measure. In the House of Representtives the measure was approved by the mili- ,taxy affairs committee after a stormy session by an 11 to 10 vote. In the Senate, where the military affairs committee also approv- eel the bill, a minoritty report was filed which warned against V. G.; M. S. Wenban, b. S. V. G.; Ed Snipes, I. G.; W. A. Maxwell, R. S. S.; W. C. Burgen, L. S.; John Caroming, P. G.; and Sam Lucas, O. G. After the lodge closed the mem- bers were invited by Noble Grand Duvall to an excellent oyster supper ~t Patton's restaurant. Master Porter Ward will hereafter serve the city subscribers with the Sentinel every week. Our friends will appreciate this new departure, we are sure and to encourage our young friend we have authorized him to take subscriptions, sell extra copies at five cents; and our pat.rons will not fail to throw a nickle in his way "Hitlerized methods of peacetime conscriptior|" Aligned against the passage of a compulsory military train- ing bill are such prominent Senators as Burton K. Wheeler, George W. Norris, Robert M. LaFo ette, Arthur Vandenburg, Hiram Johnson and dozens of others. No less a personage than Oregon's Charles L. McNary last week said "young men in uniform $o solve the unemployment problem is Hitler's method." None of these men are opposed to national defense, their records prove that. They merely share the opinion held by millions of loyal Americans that a huge peacetime military machine made up of mer m ny of them conscripted against their will, is neither a good nor a sensible n tional defense. If America must build up its armed forces it would seem there are still several ways to encourage a voluntaxy enlistment short of conscription. Under present Army regulations ordinary buck privates receive $21 per month, less than the poorest paid WPA worker and far below CCC scale. Naturally the Army finds it dif- ficult to secure a mitl on recruits willing to enlist for three years. The U. S. Navy, on the other hand, with an average pay scale 90 per cent higher the Army's, has never had trouble in se- curing high calibre recruits. While the Army looks longingly for men the Navy takes its pick from a long waiting list. Before this nation embarks on the highly controversial, and dangerous program of conscription we should try every possible means of obtaining volunteers. It would also clarify the entire nationa defense program if administration would state exactly where and how it plans to use this great peacetime army. Fenton, Klickitat county representa- tive on Che fair board, was in Yak- ima Monday evening for a special committee meeting. Fenton announced that e new sys- tern will be used by the Central Washington fair for awarding booths to various organizations.

On August 31 ,at 2:00 p. m., in the Arcade building at Yakima the various groups who have applied for booths will draw to determine loca- tions. Nursing Home.

CLIFFS MEN RETURN WITH HUCKLEBERRIES CLIFFS --(Special) -- Charlie Foster and son Ernest, of Green- bank, Washington, on Whidby Island visited his sister Mrs. Walter Thompson Tuesday and Wednesday. Mr. Foster is in the logging busi- ness there. R, obert Short and Jake Becks went to t'he huckleberry patch last week returning with 10 gallons of berries. Mrs. Clarence Brown and daugh- ter Adamay, Jewel Edmison and Gee. Jeter went to the huckleberry fields Saturday.

This freight rate reduction should be of conasiderable assist- ante to gAickitat alfalfa growers in finding new markets and in J. Austin, L. S. N. G. ; W. R. T,atdler, Warden; William Cumming, C.; keeping those lower Columbia river markets already developed. ] Too, the freigh t rate reduction will make it pebble for local hay I raisers to meet competition from other alfalfa producing areas t[ without resorting to disastrous price cutting. I] In addition to these advantages accruing to this community I] the raflway's action is significant in that it shows the Klickitat valley is fast receiving recognition as major hay producing area. i JO LBT Goldendale s EXPERT PAINTER and PAPER HANG R You Can Do It Economically AT OLTMANNS SEE THE NEW 1940 WALLPAPER PATTERNS Guaranteed FULLER PAINTS W.
