WAR WORKERS HEADQUARTERS
OPENED IN COMMERCIAL BLOCK
Opposite Tumwater Light & Water
Co.'s Office-Will Be Used for
War Activities-Open Tomorrow

Largely through the efforts of the
women on the conservation commit
tees room has been secured which
will be used as headquarters for war
activities. Mrs. G. A. Hamilton, who
is at the head of these committees,
while in Seattle last week, through
the efforts of Mr.. Weigand, secured
an interview with Mr.. Chas. Osner,
owner of the Commercial block, who
generously offered the use of the
room in the center of the block with
out cost for use as headquarters. The
city authorities have donated the
water, and Mr.. D. A. Burgett, resi-
dent manager of the Tumwater
Light G. Water Co., has consented to
put in the lights and install tele-
phone without cost to the committee.
Mr.. Chas. Dahlgren, carpenter, do
mated a days work and made some
minor changes in the interior ar
rangements of the room. The use
of some furniture has already been
donated, and, we are told, a type
writer is also Forthcoming. What
additional furniture is needed will be
secured through the generosity of
some citizen without cost. If the
women, in the spirit of patriotic SER
vice, give freely of their time to war

help the worthy cause by supplying
such conveniences as are necessary
to properly carry on war work, with
out making it necessary to raise
money by solicitation to buy them.
Yesterday the room was given
thorough cleaning and everything
viii be ready to opein the headquar-
ters tomorrow. In keeping the rooms
open at all times the committee con-
fidenty expects the cooperation of
every loyal woman in Leavenworth
and the surrounding country. A
number of women already have Of
fered to give part of their time to
taking charge of the rooms and keep
ing things in order.
Donations of fruit and vegetables
have been promised. These will be
canned and shipped to cantonments
in this state for the use of the SOL
diers. An effort will be made by the
Women's Conservation Committee 10
meet troop trains passing through
and and serve the boys with light re-
freshments, and later on with fresh
fruit.
The rooms will also be used for
food conservation and demonstra-
tion work and exhibits, where recipes
for wheatless bread and cakes can be
had and helpful hints in canning and
drying fruits and vegetables are 20
be given.
The men and women in charge of
the different war drives may also
make use of the rooms in prosecu,-
ing their work. In short the rooms
may be used for any purpose, the
object of which is to help win the
war.
Mrs. Hamilton has given much
time and worked hard this week to
have the rooms in readiness for Miss
Alexander, from the Agricultural
College, who will be here all day to-
morrow, June Is, demonstrating the
canning of fruit.
These headquarters should not,
however, be confounded with the
Red Cross headquarters, which will
continue to be maintained in the
High School building, where Red
Cross work, such as sewing and ma
king surgical dressings, will continue
to be carried on with unabated
vigor.

Man comes into this world,
without his consent, and leaves ii

During his stay on earth. his
time is spent in one continuous
round Of contraries and misunder-
standings. In his infancy, he is
the nearest approach to our con
ception to an angel. In his boy
hood he divides his honors with
the devil and a monkey, with his

he is fit subject for the home of
the feebleminded. If he raises
family, he is chump. If he is a
poor man, he is poor manager
and has no sense. If he is rich,
he is dishonest, but considered
smart. If he is out of politics you
cannot place him. and he is an
undesirable" citizen. If he goes
to church he is a hyopcrite. If
he stays away from church. he IS
sinner. If he donates to char
ity or foreign missions he does it
for show. If he refuses he is
stingy and tight wad.
When he first comes into the
world, all the girls in the neigh
borhood. including the old maids,
want to borrow him and kiss him.
If he dies young, there was fu-

WHAT THEY THINK OF 1T

A number of the prominent

what they thought Of the great
united campaign for War Work,

following interesting replies were
received:

one great campaign. United ef-
fort is the one kind that produces
the best results. +"
From Mrs. Benjamin Dry: 1T
is my personal opinion that this
new departure is good one, and
should work out for the great adj
vantage of all the seven organlza-
tions.''
From Mrs. "A. B. Newman /:
"The union of the seven organ
izations has my unqualified APP
prOval.
From Mrs. A. F. Storm: st
is an inspired plan, which must
appeal to all who appreciate the
value of cooperation, and is in
thorough accord with the spirit
of the times. It tends to elimi-
nate group selffshness by making
it a common cause, shared in by
all in a true spirit of Democracy
From Mrs. w. Lamb: "Noth-
ing could be finer than the union
of heart and purpose in this great
campaign. It will make an army
of the second line Of defense, as
thoroughly united in aim and
leadership as that other army

COUNCIL OF DE.

OF LOUISIANA


14.-Washingt0n officials ha>
declared that non-essential COZ

Marshall of the Louisiana Coun
ell Of Defense:
The War Industries Board ask!
the State Councils Of Defense Il
act as its representatives in pass
ing upon proposed construction
in order that all building which
is not absolutely necessary may
be stopped. This is part Of the
new plan by the War Industries
Board, by which permits from
the Board will be required for
construction projects, as specified
below. You will note that per-
mits are required for all new cor
struction projects, with a few ex-
ceptions relating principally to
government work. ~
: This plan has been adopted
only because Of the imperative
necessity of conserving labor, ma
terials and capital for war pur-
poses. a I
The procedure will be as fol-
lows:
!. /. The person interested in a
construction project will apply,
with a full statement Of the facts
under oath, to the appropriate
local representative Of the State
Council of Defense.
q. The local representative OF
the State Council will then inves-
tigate the necessity Of the pro-
posed construction and transmit
its recommendation. with sum-
mary Of the facts, to the State
Council for review.
3. The State Council, or its ap-
pr0priate committee, will review
the case.
{a) If the StatesC Council de-
cides in favor of the construction
it will at once send its recon-
mendatiom, with a full statemen'
of all the facts, to the Non-War
Construction Section of the Priori-
ties Division Of the War Industries
Board. The Non War Construc-
ton Section will then grant or
withhold the permit and notify
the State Council Of Defense, and
also the individual concerned Of
it's action.
(b) If the State Council de-
cides against the proposed con-
struction, it will notify the per-
son concerned that his project has
been disapproved.

submitted to it, including those
decided adversely.
The War Industries Board will

appropriate local representative
of the State Council Of Defense. !

WHY SPEED IS NEEDED

The enlarged military program re-.

. Of over two million available to be
drawn upon on and after October.
In order to obtain two million

about thirteen million more men for
classification. These thirteen mil
lion represent the total males in a

Why does the army need over two
million men? Because the allied pro-
gram to speed up the final over
throw of the German armies, calls
for an early mastering of Americas IS

ment has stated that Americas army
must not fall below five million men.
Of this amount nearly three million

'eMAKING THE WORLD SAFE"
(By J. E. Jones. J


One of tie interesting men of the
war is Samuel Gompers, who has al
ways been fighter, but who has de-
veloped into sort of generalissimo
of labor during these last four years.
Gonpers is 100 per cent American,
but as labor leader his pathway has
not always been a smooth one, and it
will be remembered that President
Wilson made a trip to Buffalo last
year to address the American Fedora
tion of Labcr, and incidentally to put
his emphatic approval upon Mr.. Com
pers at a time when it looked as
though the opposition to him might
triumph. Gompers thinks there is a
greater tug-o'war between EMPLOYERS
and employees in war times than in the
ante-bellum days of peace. Gompers'
creed is that the laborers should have
little the best of the argument at
every stage of the proceedings.
No one person has done so much to
bring about the recognition of labor
unions by the government as Com
pers. In the arrangements now being
carried on from Washington, organ
lied labor is supreme in the affairs of
industry. Gompers thinks this is lust
as it should be, and with the prestige
that he has attained, and the salts
faction that he feels over domestic
conditions, the doughty old warrior
has packed his satchel and started off
for Europe, taking with him some of
the strongest-lunged trumpeters in
the unionized labor world. Mr.. Com
pers is doing his part to make the
world safe for democracy, and for
labor unions as well.

Up to the time the Huns caught me
with their gas I was getting along

peevish and discontented at this lone
some and extremely quiet existence
here in the hospital, but will be out

They treat us very nice here in this

about, but after two months active
service at the front you can easily
imagine how very restless it is to lie
still in quiet hospital away in the

everything else that counts for rea'
activity.
l wonder how you and all your fam
lily are getting along these days and
just how life in general is serving my

you all are well and perfectly happy
