DITCH DISTRICT Is FORMED.
Commissioners Approve Plans for
Upper Black River Project.

After final hearing last Monday,
the county commissioners affirmed
their former decision to establish a
drainage district along the Black
river as originally petitioned for by
Frank Kotick and others, covering
that portion of the district above the
bridge. The improvement has been
agitated for the past 25 years.
F., Efforts by residents Of the lower
district to have their land included
in an enlarged district failed, for
fear it would delay the other work,
but the commissioners notified them
that II they would proceed with the
circulation of petition and organ

ton, district would be established
there also.

purchased with this money now
amounts to q hundred million year.
Therefore, in subscribing that hun
dred million, the American people
gave over two hundred million dollars
to the soldiers and victims of the
war.
OF the $50 persons doing Red Cross
work in France, fewer than half re-
ceive salaries, and to those the aver
age yearly salary is $500. In this
country it is about the same. No
officer of any chapter, except some
times the secretary, receives any COM
pensation. Stenographers are usual
ly paid, but they ask less than they
could receive elsewhere, contributing
that much to the cause.
Right here 1t may be said that no
one in any way connected with the
Olympia chapter receives compensa-
ton except the janitor of headquar-
tiers. 1t has always been the law that
Red Cross overhead expenses must be
paid out of membership dues, and
only 5 per cent OF that fund can be
so used.
