SERVICE Club MET WEDNESDAY
TALKED BONDING PROPOSAL
Very Little Opposition to Bonding the
School District for $4,000 for
New Building

A special meeting of the Service
Club was held in the Red Cross rooms
Wednesday evening to discuss the
proposition to bond the school dis
trict for the purpose of erecting a
gymnasium and community building.
1t was stated some little oposition was
expressed to building at this time on
account of the high cost of building
material and labor, which was met
with the statement that the building
was needed by our public school and
that the possibility of lower prices for
material and labor was too remote to
be taken into consideration. A COM
mittee of ten was appointed by tenn
porary chairman McKeown to plan the
campaign for carrying the election,
which will be held tomorrow to deter
mine if the voters will authorize the
bond issue, after which plans and
specifications will be called for and af-
ter they are adopted bids will be
called for and an effort made to have
the building completed this year. The
building is to be of brick and concrete.
1t is planned to use the heating plant
now in use to heat the new building.
The matter of grading Commercial
street from Eighth street to the We
natchee river bridge also received
some attention and was turned over to
the street committee of the club. That
some action should be taken to i'm
prove the street was admitted by every
one.

5TH LIBERTY LOAN LAUNCHED
MONDAY EVENING LAST IN PARK
With Speeches, Music Followed by
Subscriptions Amounting to
Over $1,000

The Fifth Liberty Loan Campaign
was opened in Leavenworth with an
enthusiastic meeting held in the city
park Monday evening, April 21st.
The meeting was called to order by
DR.. A. G. McKeown, chairman of the
Upper Wenatchee Valley District for
the Victory Loan campaign, who in
troduced the speakers of the evening.
Prof. Bohanan, of Wenatchee, gave
an excellent and forceful speech, TAX
ing for his topic, eve, the People," in
which he emphasized in a most con-
vincing manner the purpose and i'm
portance of the individual in lending
his support to the government of
which we are all a part. Mr.. Wilson,
of the state department of education,
impressed his auditors with the need
of the support necessary to carry the
Fifth loan over the top, that we might
again express our unbroken unity
which proved such great factor in
bringing the great war to victorious
end. Mr.. Ed. Ferguson, well known
resident of the valley and staunch
patriot, was called upon for an ex-
temporaneous speech, and pleased his
audience with brief straight from
the shoulder talk, firing the heart of
every American citizen with desire
to fulfill his last financial duty. Mr..
James McDaniels with his Kid Band
contributed to the completeness of the
evening by rendering the "Star Span
gled Banner" and several other patri-
otic selections.

boy, enlisted in the infantry at the
outbreak of the war, going to France
almost Immediately. He enlisted of
his own initiative and worked his way
up from a private to first sergeant and
was to enter the Officers Training
school in France when he was wound
ed. Sgt. Bunch during the trouble
with Mexico left school at Mt. Har-
mon college, Massachusetts,, to go to
the border in the End Massachusetts
national guard. After the trouble at
the Mexican border he returned to
school, completing his course in Feb
ruary, when he returned to this coast
and filled a position in Vancouver, B.
c., with the Canadian Pacific railway
He was called to the service with his
old regiment and was sent to France
Sept. 25, 1917. He was a member of
the first national guard to land in
France. On Feb. 7, 1918 he saw ac-
tion in the front line trenches for the
first time. On October 10th, while
in command of his patrol, Sgt. Bunch
was wounded by machine gun and
shrapnel fire, together with gas at
tack the same day, which put an end
to his active participation in the war.
Sgt. Bunch served II months in
France and wears the Fourragere of
the Croix de Guerre. The 104th In
fantry, of which Sgt Bunch is a men,
Der, went into Apremont woods on the
morning of April 10th and were sur
rounded on both flanks for four days.
The morning of April 18th the remain
der of the regiment counter-attacked,
forcing the Germans back to their old
lines. 220 men survived out of the
original 3700 in the regiment. These
220 were decorated by Premier Glenn
enceau with the Croix de Guerre.
Sgt. Bunch received the Croix de
Guerre with star for leading platoon
in this fierce counter-attack.
The aircraft production board is
straining every effort in conjunction
with the treasury department in
Washington, D. c., to secure advance
shipment of a Curtiss warplane to the
Seattle school of aeronautics, which
plane will be used exclusively for ex-
hibition work with the trophy train
thru the State of Washington. 1t will
drop literature all over the state and
will perform evolutions and stunts
used over the trenches in France. This
plane will be in charge of three army
aviators who are famous for their ex-
ploits thruout the war. This exhibi-
ton will undoubtedly be the greatest
which has ever been produced in the
State of Washington and will hold the
record as being the first ever shown
by the army aviators of their tricks
which they used to fool the Hun in the
air.

ENORMOUS AMOUNTS TO Be
SPENT IN ROAD BUILDING
Illinois Leads with $150, 0,000, 900; Min
nesota follows With 100000, 900,
and Washington With $30,000,00

The latest information compiled by
the division of public works and con
struction developments of the depart
ment of labor shows that 18 states
are endeavoring to increase their ap-
preparation for road building, Mime
scta with 100 million dollars, followed
by Texas with rs million, Illinois, Kan
sas and Missouri with go million each.
The State of Washington comes 18th
on the list with its appropriation of 80
million. Illinois leads with $50 mil
lion.
Road building authorities are pre-
dieting 1919, 1920 and 1921 will prove
the greatest in the country's history
in the matter of road construction.
Federal funds to the amount of 1885,
100000 will have been made available
for state road projects thruout the
United States by the end of the fiscal
year of 1921. 1t is admitted in the de-
partment of labor that present con-
struction costs are much higher than
prewar levels, but most authorities
agree that pre-war prices in this field
will not be reestablished. The condi-
tion of our currency and the generally
higher price levels thruout the world
these authorities assert, will not per-
nit a return to prewar prices, and for
these reasons present construction
prices are not as abnormal as the
popular mind is prone to believe them
Considering road building from a
preparedness angle, it was decided in
the recent congress of governors and
Mayors at Washington that there is
necessity for more liberal road
building policy thruout the country;
also it was believed advisable to fur
ther this program at this time in or
der to avoid labor surplus, which
will result if no conscious effort is
made to revive construction work.
The division of public works and
construction developments of the de-
partment of labor asserts, regardless
of present construction prices, it is a
paying investment for states to al
once get road work and construction
of public improvements under way
The dividend and benefit of this policy
will appear in the early improvement
of general business conditions and the
ready absorption of such labor as is re-
leased from the army and war indus
try.

MAKING MONEY GROWING
BEET

Clearing more than $500 from II
acres of sugar beets is the record of
Twin Falls, Idaho, farmer last sea-
son. 1t is a mark at which growers
may shoot for some time to come.
This crop was a trifle less than 20
tons to the acre, but gross returns
were $2,529.50 This includes $2,-
1880 for his beets, 295 representing
value received from pulp in feeding
his stock, and $45 for pasturing from
nine of the II acres.
After paying himself and his horses
$400, seed and hired labor $173.33,
water tax $33, county tax 352, this
farmer found that his expenses totaled
991.33. This left him a clear profit
of $1,538.17.

begin May 18 and last just one week.
So enthusiastic have scores of
churches in the northwest become that
many of them have raised large
part of their quotas already. Dallas,
Oregon, is the latest city to announce
that it has exceeded its quota. YAM
hill reported that in obtaining its quo
ia, its lagest gift was $997 and its

RECRUITS WANTED FOR THE
MERCHANT MARINE SERVICE
Opportunity to See the WOrld-Fair
Pay With Chance for Ad-
vancemene

The boy who wants to see the world
need not miss his opportunity even
tho the world war has been fought and
won. The fleets of the United States
Shipping Board offer the chance. The
ships of the great merchant marine
are manned by men furnished by the
Sea Service bureau at Seattle and
other places; those sailing from ports
of the northwest rely entirely upon
Seattle. The bureau recruits through
enlistment and then trains the recruits
at the sea training station at West
Seattle. Any boy or man between the
ages of 18 and 35 who is sound phys
ically and citizen of the United
States is eligible.
It is possible to enlist at any Rexall
drug store or at the training station.
The recruit who enlists near home has
his transportation repaid to him from
the point of enlistment to the train
ing SLdCiUu. ht Gile IIdliliiS otdeioii
board, uniform, work clothes and room
are FURNISHED free during the training
period, and he draws one dollar per
day as pay during that time, which
usually lasts from four to eight weeks.
After the training period is passed he
is given berth aboard ship and receives
regular mariners pay. Then he goes
to sea and the far horizons beckon
him on. He sees what lies beyond.
The world and it's strange places,
strange people, habits and productions
open before him as he sails on into
stranger seas.
And there are opportunities for ad-
vancement. In fact, advancement is
certainty in the United States mer-
chant marine. Any boy entering the
deck department can become a captain
by the end of five years. The same
service will place the recruit at the
head of either the engine or the
stewards department.
Seattle is called upon more and more
for men. During February New York
alone furnished more men for Out
bound ships than Seattle. Conditions
aboard ship are made as good as strict
government supervision and regula-
ton can provide, and better by far
than on the ships flying any other
flag on earth. And the American
merchant marine pays more than any
other nation, man for man, to its mar
iners than any other nation.
The United States intends to make
the American merchant marine re-
sumo its once proud and honored place
in the world of shipping. The ships
need men now. This is a call from
Uncle Sam, a call to all who feel the
lure of the sea and the thirst of ad-
venture. The sea service bureau needs
recruits to train and supply the out
going steamships with their full quota
of mariners. 1t is great army that
any healthy American boy can join
with credit to himself and to the SER
vice. He can rise in it; rise to the top,
and learn the ways of all the world as
he rises.
If there is no recruiting place in the
vicinity of your home letter to the
Enrolling Agent, Sea Training Ser
vice, U. S. Shipping Board, West Sc
attic, will bring full and definite in
formation to any interested inquirer

1T WILL PASS

All the wrong doctrines that have
been agitated thruout the ages have
passed; only the truth will live. Ig-
norance will be defeated today as it
has been in the past and intelligence
will prevail. The war was brought on
by the wrong doctrines and ignorance
of the Hun, and he was defeated.
All the vicious agitation, anarchy
and revolution that is being preached
today will pass too. Common sense
and intelligence always comes out on
top eventually.

The question is being asked of late,
"Where does all the booze come
from?" 1t is not an unusual sight to
see from two to three drunks a week
on the street, and from all accounts
there was regular booze party at
the dance last Monday evening. A
disgraceful affair according to reports
received at this office. The council
should pass an ordinance providing for
a minimum fine of 500 for public
drunkenness and see that the ordi-
nance is enforced.
