NAZI MARRIAGE
RULES STRINGENT
B rlin. Dec. 30—Ten com
m ndments to help Aryan
women choose their hus
bands have been issued by
the Committee for National
Health Service. They are:
1. Remember that you
are German.
2. If hereditarily healthy
you should not remain sin
gle.
3. Keep your body pure.
4. Keep mind and soul
pure.
. Choose a German hus
band or a man of Nordic
blood. Where dispositions
are alike, harmony rules.
(Here follows a disserta
tion against mixed marri
ages.)
6. In the choice of your
husband, inquire about his
ancestors. You do not mar
ry him alone but all his
forefathers.
7. Health is also a condi
tion for exterior beauty.
8. Marry only for love;
money is a temporal bene
fit and does not. bring last
ing happiness.
9. Seek no toy but a com
panion in wedlock.
10. Have as many child
ren as possible.
To some of these command
ments long explanations
are attached.

HAVE YOU TRIED
COMAX COAL?
COMAX COAL is produced by the Vancouv
er Island Coals Limited, producers also of the fam
ous Ladysmith Coal. We brought in a sample sup
ply of COMAX COAL on the recommendation of
Mr. H. R. Plommer, General Manager, who visit
ed Nome last summer.
After investigating local conditions Mr. Plom
mer advised the introduction of COMAX COAL
on the ground of Economy and Efficiency. He pro
duced facts showing considerable saving compar
ed with oil burning. COMAX COAL is extremely
high in heating value, and because of its strong
coke qualities, is long-lasting. It is not recommend
ed that this coal should be used except in those
places where a healthy draft is available, and in
this regard it should not be inferred because the
draft is on the fire, that the fire is burning to
waste. Of course, if the heat is not required there
is no purpose in exciting a fierce fire, but if requir
ed the more of the oxygen from the atmosphere
that can be consumed with the coal, the better
the results.
