WILL TELL OF LIFE OF SOLDIER
IN GOVERNMENT ARMY CAMPS

How to improve the conditions of
the army camps of the American
soldiers, and to provide clean amuse-
ment and recreation for the men, will
be the problem discussed at an open
meeting in Lynden Tuesday evening.
June 5, by ]. j. Donovan of Belling-
ham, a member of the WhatcOm
County Executive Committee of the
Washington War Work Council.
The session will be held in jamie
sons Hall at eight O'Clock. The Rev.
Paul Ashby. Lynden's representative
on the Executive Committee, VIII pre-
side.
How to combat the evils incident
to camp life, is a great army prob
lem that is hard to solve, " said Rev.
Ashby today THE Red Cross fights
against physical ills, and works
wonderfully well; but we all know
that, though these ills are not to be
discounted, there are other dangers
that are even greater. When the
young men leave home influences be
hind, they are pursued by many dang
ers OF temptation in the free life Of
the camps.
How to provide good buildings to
which they may go for recreation and
amusement was a question that was
successfully answered by the Nation
al Y. NJ. c. A. at the Mexican border
and Mr.. Donovan will tell of the
way the organization served the nat
ion at that time. No one who may
have loved ones sent to the army
camps should miss hearing his state
ment of conditions the men must
face"

ROAD BIDS EXCEED
ENGINEERS FIGURES
High Costs of Materials And Labor
VIII Make Whatcom County's New
Roads Cost Large Sums

Because the bids on the improve
ments exceeded the engineers estim-
ates by more than $4,000 the county
commissioners last week rejected the
tenders for the hard-surfacing of the
Geneva road and the Northeast Di-
agonal.
But two bids were offered, that of
Lidingham and Cooper of Vancouver
B. c. at S56.099. and X. Sauset of
s56,5S5. The county engineers est
innate was S47,100.
The advanced cost of labor and
materials is the reason for the high
bids.
Only two bids were submitted for
the paving of the Deming-Lawrence
road, a distance of twelve miles. X.
Sauset submitted a bid of $95. 500
for division No. which runs from
Nugent's bridge to Deming. The est
innate on this was $4,000. The bid
of the Washington Paving Company
on the entire road was S194,055, as
against the estimate of S177,30O. A
provision that the Company makes
in its offer is that the county must
waive the penalty and time of com
pletion clause in the contract, be
cause of the difficulty of obtaining
labor.
The commissi oners yesterday ac-
cept3d the bid of the Washington
Paving Company, but decided to re-
advertise for bids on the Geneva
road.

GIVE UP ATTEMPT TO KNOCK
OUT STATE BONE DRY LAW

The attempt to secure enough
names to refer the Bone Dry" bill
passed by the last Legislature has
virtually been abandoned and that
law will become effective on June 9Th.
The circulation of petitions to refer
the capitol building law has also been
abandoned and this means that there

to accept the law as it passed.
