Sound and during the canning sea-
SON employ 1900 persons.
The eastern people think the work
is done mostly by Chinese. A few
are employed but most Of the work
is done by machinery. Many girls
are employed in packing fish into
the cans, some making from $3.50
to s4.OO per day. The champion
packer. a girl, too, makes 81 and
.3S day. The canning season lasts
five or six months depending upon
the run of fish. We have the eight
hour law for women which applies
to all classes of work except In the
handling of perishable goods such
as fish, fruit, etc.
The surrounding country is ex-
cellent for poultry, fruit raising and
dairying and the river bottom lands
yield from 100 to $50 bushels OF
oats per acre. The climate is mild
both summer and winter, plenty OF
pure clear water and green grass
the year around. Whatcom and
Skagit counties have many creamer-
les and three large condensed milk
factories.
Mt. Baker lies east of Bellingham
about As miles, L. 900 feet high and
covered with snow the year around,
can be seen from our city on the
hottest day of summer covered with
snow.
The mountain is annually the
scene of most interesting Marathon
race from Bellingham to its summit
and return. The 1918 race will
take place August IA and 1t is ex-
pected that mountain climbers OF
great fame will take part in this
great race. A large purse is made
up for the winner making the trip
in the shortest time.
Bellingham has the state normal
school with an attendance of 900
Students. Teachers wages average
for men $1O7 per month, for wo-
men $50 per month.
| do not wish to say that people
do not die here, but our deaths US
ually come from natural causes, not
from being frozen to death, wasted
to death, carried away in cyclone,
killed by lightning, drowned by
floods, etc.
wish to say to all my Kansas
home seekers, visit Bellingham coun-
try and see for yourself.

THREE AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENTS
Saturday, Sunday and Monday Were
UnIucky Days for Autos.

Three automobile accidents In the
past three days broke the record
30 far as Abilene is concerned. Sat
urday evening while Roland French
and his sister Ruth were driving
south on Buckeye, near Dan Baer' $
feed barn, B. o. Stone came around
the corner with his auto. He made
a short turn and was headed slight
ly to the west. French thought ne
was going to keep that side OF the
street and turned his horse to the
east. Just as he turned to the east
stone turned east and clashed into
French's buggy. The buggy was
upset and both the occupants thrown
out. Neither was hurt. The buggy
was badly smashed and the wind
shield on the car was broken. 1t is
said the car was without lights.
Sunday evening G. H. Pinkham
was driving west on Enterprise and
came to Buckeye before he knew it.
He made sharp turn north and
struck Lands buggy. The buggy
was slid around but no damage
done. >>

BOOST FOR BELLINGHAM
FROM FORMER DICKINSONIAN

Mrs. David e. Bartruff. formerly
Of this county, writes from Belling-
ham, Warrington:
Editor Reflector: May 18th has
been set aside as Home Folks
Day" in our town, wanting every.
body to write boosting letter home.
to some friend or to our own home
town paper. / have been constant
reader of your paper ever since |
left Dickinson county eleven years
ago, and always look forward to it's
coming full OF home news.
1 have read many letters from
former Kansas friends and neigh
bors who have moved to different
parts of the United States, SO ] feel
that | must write few lines In
favor of the great northwest cor
ner, Bellingham and surrounding
country, which know you would
like to hear from.
Our California friends may think
they have an ideal climate, but here
are a few facts certain about our
beautiful city. 1t has the most sun
shine, least rainfall and the coolest
summers on Puget Sound, and Pu-
get Sound has by far the most re-
freshing climate known to the Unit
ed States weather bureau. The IL
hottest days in the last twelve years
had an average temperature of only
85 degrees and average rainfall for
the same period of time is BIN
inches.
We have no hurricanes, tornadoes,
blizzarts, lightning or thunder
storms, no floods, down-pouring
rains and very little snow. We have
no dog days, no sultry heat and no
extreme cold.
When we read of the terrific cy-
clones and trail Of destruction and
death, we feel that this should turn
the thoughts of the people to the
beautiful evergreen state Of Wash
ington where such visits are not
known.
Bellingham has population OF
$4,000, is beautifully situated on
Bellingham bay, its harbors being
large enough to accommodate the
whole of Uncle Sans navy at one
time. 1t out ranks every other city
in the production of cedar shingles,
lumber products And canned fish,
and we have a new cement plant
Just finished read for = operation,
which will put out 1000 barrels of
cement daily.
Bellingham is the center of the
fish canning, the largest cannery in
the world is located here. There
are about fifteen other canneries
located at different points on Puget

 Building - Hospital Superi int endent
 Would Purchase Small Structure from District

The town school committee held a special meeting Saturday evening. These members were present: Dr. F. E. Guild. chairman, l.. B. Lincoln, Cur tiS Dean, C. c. Case, George $. Elliott J. Kelley. MT.

There is to be meeting of the free men of the borough of Jewett City this (Monday) evening agreeable to the re- quest of Warden Mccarthy. to take action with regard to making an ap- propriation for the police department. Since the death of Officer P. B. Dris- coll the night patrol duty has been performed by Supernumerary Officer John Zurlong. Meanwhile there have been a dozen or more applications for the place of policeman.
 Officer DriscoH received for his ser vices the sum of $53.14 per month or general opinion that tonight an apprO- priation sufficiently large to permit the new officer to be paid $2.25 will be voted.
 Provided this provision meets with approval, Dennis Barnett will assume the duties at once.
 For some time after the night patrcl was established, with P, B. Driscoll and B. P. Franklin as the officers, there were two men on duty, which was discontinued on account of the expense being too much. For a short time, IS years ago, after the postoffice safe was blown, when the night patrol was first esta blished Dennis Barnett was employed as night man by the Slater company. Then there were three men for a year or more. great many property owners have expressed the opinion that not only should the policemen be paid $2-25. but that there should be two men on duty every night. The fact is advanced that burglars, incendiaries or criminals of any sort planning to commit crime in the borough have no difficulty in evading the single officer on duty, be he ever so vigilant. That such is the case is substantfated in the evidence in the recent postoff1ce burglary when Officer Driscoll was shot. The crooks knew where he was and waited for him to come up School street Had he an associate officer, signals could have been exchanged, different meth ods adopted and the deplorable result might have been averted.
 Surprised on Birthday.
 Thirty friends of Miss Flora Holmes gave her a surprise party last week which was most successful in every detail The company played cards and danced, and enjoyed the refresh ments, of cake cocoa and bananas.
