Skagwa., la spoken of as a town
with hundreds of dolapldated old
shacks. Dui has time alone caused
the delapiJation? We believe that
such portions, responsible for the
destruction of the windows in the
old Fifth Avenue hotel are largely
l'esponsiole for this delapidatlon.
Bui the vandalism Is not the only
cause for this "run down at the
h?-el" appearance; thieving, pure
uid simple, has been prominent in
the cause. Windows, doors, chim
neys, partitions, and everything that
U portable or stable have been
stolen from houses which have been
nailed up and deserted. The ef
feit is dcav and delapidatlon. Had
the authorities investigated where
old doors, windows, bricks, and the
Hire came from, which have been
I'red In repairs that are constantly
going on In Skagaay, and when not
Properly accounted for, enforced the
law against stealing, a major por
tion of the delapldated condition of
' " deserted shacks would not be.
? retired U.S. Army officer makes
the assertion that 40,000 Japs are
l.'ned up on the Pacific Coast, arm
ed ready for war. We know a lot
of Japs, whom arc undoubtedly num
bered in the -jbove figures, and
n.Mle they are armed, their arms
either cou.tist of i2-eal. rifles, used
for shooting rats that Invade their
domain, or kodaks, for the purpose
of taklug f let urea of the scenery of
the country the.* have adopted. In
order to show their old mothers and
fathers who are still In Nippon, the
grandeure of this country. As to
the few who ar? rcilly belligerent,
w ? confidently believe that a few
companies of the "Boy Scouts"
could drive them into tho brlney
waters oi the Pacific, and laugh
Col. Roosovelt, according to the
King of Komla, could wear tho crown
ot that country n' ho would only say
tho word. Teddy has always had a
piopouslty of welldlng tho big stick,
ard this Is his opportunity of hav
tug that deslro satisfied for life. Ho
would bo given u golden scoptor,
the raising of which would havo far
more weight than the big stick he
viollded wlillo president of the Un
ited State*.
Governor Strong Is anxlos to get
"homo". This Is tho first time that
a governor of Alaska has spoken of
his territory aa HOME. Listens
pretty good, don't it?
H. OUn Young, rocently seatod
in Congr?M., as Representative from
Illinois, has a conscience, and that
conscience has kept up such an un
bearable pricking he could stand It
no longer. Believing that peace of
mind was worth more to him than
tie honor of holding a soat in the
Nation's legislative halls, he has
resigned. Ho claims that he was
illegally elected. Next!
Canadians and Americans can go
bcme on Canadian Rye and Can*
dian Scotch. In Alaska and the Un
ited States, but u Canadian stamp
can't make a letter go. At some
things Uncle Sam draws the llhe.

9 by Marreau.
Tho rearing of children, their teaching and training, aro the no
blest functions and the HIGHEST DUTIES of humanity.
The idea that children can' be reared by instinct is absurd. The
nearer a science motherhood can reach the FIXER CHILDREN
WILL BE REARED. Tho further from tho standards of a primi
tive race we get tho more health and vigor wo are bound to have.
WHAT 13 GOOD ENOUGH FOR THE ANIMAL WILL N?f DO AT
ALL FOR THE MAN. OLD NOTIONS OF REARING CHILDREN ARE
AS ARCHAIC AS PREDICTING WEATHER BY THE THINNE8S OR
THICKNESS OF THE OOOSEBONE, AS THE CASE MIGHT HAPPEN
TO BE.
I think the woman who believes devoutly and devotedly that her
best and highest work lies in following the commands of her Maker
will find no difficnlty in doing her legitimate share in the other work
of the world. She must NEVER LOSE HER SENSE OF PRO
PORTION and try to dethrone her supreme duties and placo upon
a pedestal the things that may lure her from the highest calls of
WOMANHOOD AND MOTHERHOOD.
