the opinion of City Engineer Woods.
The mains on West Fourth were
laid before the paving was put down.
A new cast iron main will be laid
across the new bridge as soon as

the West Side excellent water service.

TO BE MOST ELABORATE
EVER, PLANS G. OF c

The inaugural ball Of 1921, il
honor of Governor Louis F. Hart, the
elective officers and members Of the
house and senate, will be the most
elaborate ever held in Olympia,
according to plans already under wae
by the Olympia Chamber of Com.
merce, under whose auspices the in =.
augural and subsequent balls are
always held.
Owing to the lack of any large
hall downtown it will be necessary to
use the Tumwater club house again,
but by the second week in January
when the ball is to be held, the hall
will be ceiled and in much better cou-
ditiOn than ever before.
Differing from other occasions the
Chamber Of Commerce has decided
to use a special attraction for the iE-
augural ball and have signed a con-
tract with the Columbian Symphony
Orchestra, composed of the best lady
in the United States, to
play the opening concert. and a Rus
sian dancer.
Committees to have charge of the
arrangements will be appointed at an
early date and definite plans laid for

RECOMMEND DISMISSAL
STATE FAIR MANAGER
Inspection Bureau Finds Deficit OF
$7,i7O.54, Although Receipts
Exceed Past Years.

The Washington State Fair funt
faces a deficit of S7,17O.54; it.
assets are $8,666.38 and its liabilitie,
$15,S36.89, according to the repor
submitted to the attorney general b,
the bureau Of inspection and super
vision Of public offices of the stats
auditors Office.
At the last examination accordine
to the report, there was a balance oi
16,O53:55 on hand in the Washing.
ton State Fair fund. The state fan
manager claimed that the money
could be spent direct. The case was
taken to the supreme court and II
ruled that this money formed an
operating fund end must be dra wn
out on warrants, the same as money
from the appropriation funds.
The report says in connection with
the matter:
Notwithstanding the fact that the
balance in addition to over one.hait
of the biennial appropriation. ar !
that the direct receipts of 1920 far
exceed the previous years by over
$4,000, the secretary-manager failed
ito keep close watch on his exped.
diturcs, with the result that. after all
the receipts are collected. there still
will be deficit of over $1,000 in ex-
cess of all collections and appropria-
tions.
I'VE suggest as wise economy the
placing of the fair grounds under a
caretaker and that the secretary Gloss
his once and send hts books to Olym.
pia and the commissioner Of agricul-
ture transact the, business necessary
between this time and April /, with
out extra expense to the state"
This matter will be taken up by
the members of the state advisory
board at their meeting to be held
Tuesday. The meeting was prev
iously scheduled to be held In Olym-
pia, but due to the fact that Cover.

and maintenance of county librarie.

from Seattle. The campaign commit

Spokane Public Library; A. w. Tyler
Olympia; T. c. Elliott. Walla Walla
Mrs. N. S. McCready, Snohomish ;
Mrs. F. w. Nagler, Yakima; H. w.
McPhail, Raymond.
The appointment Of this committee
brings to the fore again a matter
direcly affecting the general reading
public and of special moment to edu
cational interests Of the state. The
necessity Of legislation to provide pro-
per library facilities throughout the
state was strongly presented at the
recent legislative conference of the
Washington Educational Association.
which unanimously indorsed the idea
of the county library md house bill
No. 81, introduced in the 1919 legis-
lature. The memorandum presented
by the Pacific Northwest Library Asso-
citation to the legislative conferences
summarizes the arguments in favor Of
the bill as follows:
1.-The rural schools OF our state. the
rural districts and smaller communi-
ties are pitifull lacking in library re-
sources.
"Such resources are fully as de.
sirable and as necessary in the rural
schools and rural districts. II not mora
desirable, than the. more populated
cities.
"Our larger public libraries receive
each month many letters from rural
hooNteachers and active members Of
clubs in the smaller towns asking for
and assistance which
should be available in ibraries near
at hand.
Schools and small communities
ask in very appealing Ian
guage for even our discarded and
worn-out books. =.
1.-The situation cannot be covered by
our state library. the state travelinf
library, or by the small number Of
public libraries in our state.
Leaders In both the teaching and
library professions are convinced that
the county is the most effective poll
tical unit for adequate library service.
Commissioner Claxton and the sec
retary OF the N. E. A. have both in
dorsed the enlarged program of the
American Library Association in
which the development Of county
libraries has prominent place.
