THE WEEKLY MESSENGER
Devoted to the Interests of the Student'Body, Washington State Normal School
Vol. XVI. BELLINGHAM, WASH., SATURDAY, MARCH 24, 1917 No. 24
OF 1 . NASH
Inrecognition of the work accomplished
at Olympia for the local school
by Dr. Nash and the Whatcom county
members of the State Legislature, the
faculty are planning a banquet in their
honor at the Hotel Leopold, Saturday
evening, March 24. A series of toasts
will follow the banquet.
-. The\.following items give a brief
summary of what was accorded this
school:
A new scope of work was outlined
for the Normal Schools of the State,
certification law materially raising the
standards of Washington was passed
and authority was given to the State
Normal Schools to organize extension
work.
The millage adjustment was made
as follows: State University, .740;
State College, .450; Beilmgham, .152;
Cheney, .130; and Ellensburg, .108.
This means that the millage of the
higher institutions has been increased
from 1.05 to 1.58.
Appropriations for the Bellingham
Normal School were made as follows:
From the State. general fund for the
purchase and improvement of land,
$15,00.0; from millage .and normal current
funds for salaries of teachers and
employees, $205,000; supplies, materials
and general maintenance, $45,000;
heating plant, repairs and. improvement,
$20,000; making a total appropriation
for the school of $285,000.
Under the new financial adjustment
the school will be able to maintain its
high standard of efficiency and improve
in many particulars.
Among the exchanges of the past
week "Wheat" from Ritzville, Wash.,
especially attracted our attention.
This attractive, interesting and well
organized paper of thirty pages is entirely
destitute of advertisements. This
is made possible by contributions from
fifty or more business concerns.

Waiving the usual formalities, Bishop
Hughes gave to the students a real
message at the special assembly
Thursday.
"The greatest problem ever faced by
any man is that he is a man. Man
cannot place the responsibility of
self on shoulders of heredity and environment.
No man ever inherits a
character, no man ever starts with the
drinking habit.'" True, man is influenced
by his environment yet there
are a great variety of environments
and man with his reason and self determination
has it within his power
to "make, choose or modify his environment."
The question to be
solved is "What sort of life do we
want?"
"Life is measured by three dimensions:
First, length. How important
is this—the length of life, yet the dimension
of length alone is a very unsatisfactory
estimate of life, for a
man's life may be a burden or it may
move the world.
"The second dimension is breadth
of life, not in the sense of liberal
