Senator Root Introduces Bill
to Provide 100000 for

dearest wish TO promote an interest I'm
science literature, and art in the people
OF the country" and that as conditions
have changed since the time OF his tn
cumbency as President, new measures
of disseminating this knowledge are re-
quired. Because of the lack Of a central
headquarters for patriotic. medical, lit
erary. and scientific societies, George
Washington's wish has not been carried
out TO any great extent. the bill recites,
established a building known as the
George Washington Memorial should be
erected. The control OF the building, the
bill provides, shall be vested IN the board
OF regents of the Smithsonian Institu-
tion.

The bill states that the building shall
be erected in accordance with plans to
be prepared under the supervision Of the
Commissioner OF Fine Arts. the structure
to be freproof, faced with granite, and
not to cost less than 100000. The audi
torium, It Is declared. shall seat not less
than 5000 persons, and smaller halls, re-
ception rooms, and ONCE rooms also shall
be provided.
A permanent endowment fund Of 500, :
900, it is provided. shall be raised by the
George WASHINGTON Memorial Association,
the income from which shall, as far as
necessary. be used for the maintenance
of the building.
The south front Of the memorial, the
bill provides, Is to be on a line with the

The paragraph in the bill relating to
the uses TO which the memorial Is 10
be put reads:

THE IRRIGATION DISTRICT

Irrigation is one of the most valuable
assets of the west. Indeed, 60 per cent
of the wealth of the Pacific coast states
may be traced directly to irrigation
projects. While many of the East Side
orchardists may not at present use
water on their land, all will admit
that they want it handy and that the
big East Side ditch is one OF their
chief assets. The impracticability of
the cooperative system has BEEN shown
by the failure of the East Side irriga-
tion company. The responsibility for
the failure can't be placed No one is
to blame The system itself must
bear the censures.
Such is the nature Of the operation
of an irrigation project that it should
be under public control. District irri
cation control has been found success
full. Funds are needed for the mainte.
nance and improvement of the East
Side ditch The district system offers
the only means of carrying out compre.
hensive plans. The East Side citizens
have done well to investigate the con.
ditons and they have done better still
in endorsing the district system.

The names bestowed upon certain

This is true of the well known epi-

called Michelet was the cook of a
young French marquise of the century
who was noted for her lack of educa

On certain occasion she gave din

Choiseul-Cavalerie During the func-
ton her guests spoke of q banquet that
they had attended on the previous
evening. at which the host had enter

liant eplgrams The marquise supposed
that "eplgrams" referred to culinary
surprises Consequently she summoned
Michelet. her cook. and ordered him to
prepare some epigrams for dinner on
the following day.
Michelet was greatly troubled as to
how he was to obey the order. He recol-
lected. however. that he had in the
larder some very superior lamb He

EIGHTEENTH CENTURY LIFE.
A Bath Was Matter of Some Nome Mt
In Those Days.

These brief extracts from the letters
of Elizabeth M0ntagu. the queen of
the bluestockings," throws curious
light on eighteenth century life in Eng
land. She was suffering from a swell
ed lip Promptly. the great Dr. Mead
prescribed a blister to her back. She
writes:
II am better than was; but my
mouth not being yet perfectly reduced
| have got fresh blister upon my
back Well may it bend with such
weight of calamities | have sent for
my bathing cloathes and Oh Sunday
night shall take sOuze. ! think It a
pleasant remedy"
Apparently in l74l lady could uut
take bath even on Sunday night and
in the privacy of her chamber without
her bathing cloathes
Mrs Montagu writes again: MY lip
is not entirely reduced. though have
been bliStered twice. once bloOded ana
have five times taken physiC, have
lived upon chicken and white meats
and drunk nothing but water ! have
suffered great disappointment about
the warm bath which ! am advised to
try. for the bathing tubs are 50 out OF

OWNERS ENDORSE
DISTRICT MOVEMENT

The property owners of the East
Side, ,Iabout 65 of whom gathered at the
Pine Grove hall last Thursday after
noon, endorsed the movement to create
an irrigation district. Some at the
first of the meeting urged that money
be borrowed to pay off the debt and
that the business be allowed to run as
at present. However, the impractica-
bility of this was shown and it was
pointed out that the irrigation district
was the only feasible method.
eve are informed that the county
court must be petitioned 10 days il
advance of the election recommending
the appointment of the judges and Off
GERS to be elected to the respective
Offices whose names are to placed or

matter 1t seems the proper way to d.
