AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER
The psychologists tell us that
man has a dual mind-the con
scious and the sub-conscious.
You have heard that before?
Oh very well, then, we will
pass it. But you andK I know
without anyone telling us that
we are constantly making men
tal records and packing them
away somewhere for future
reference. Every optimistic,
hopeful, pleasant and courag
ci is re jrd you make will be
of wonderful and powerful as
sistance to you when the grey
days come, every time in fact
when you are incliifed to have
the “dumps.” Contrawise, ev
ery pessimistic, doleful, un
pleasant and fearful record
you make, your conscious mind
will drag forth from its cubby'
ho.e to damn you every time an
and opportunity presents itself.
“Poppy-cock,” you say, per
haps,; and you may also add
that you do not take any stock
in this conscious and sub-con
scious mind business anyway.
/11 right brother, so be it, but
if that is your position, you are
buckir? up against an array of
facts that some day will stun
youV During your life time you
have undoubtedly observed
some business men who stood
the gaff unusually well when
fcus'ness conditions were bad,
credit tight, and money scarce;
si -n some who did not. One
man was bumped just as hard
as the other; yet one man
smiled and went on, the other
bowed his head and sagged un
der the strain. Wherein lay the
difference? Temperment you
say; possibly, indeed probably,
heredity. All right, we will
grant you 25 per cent asjhe re
sult of these causes, but the
previous mental records must
and do account for the bal
ance, the 75 per cent.
We either make or mar our
own lives and that is just as
sure as that green apples cause
cramps. ; .jmA

While advertising has helped
millions to greater prosperity,
it has aho raised the standards
Of business. It is the word of
the business house to custom
ers. Manufacturers and distrib
utors realize that readers must
- receive exactly what is prom
ised in advertised products. No
man of experience will put his
name or brand on inferior art
icles because it is plain suicide
to advertise an unworthy prod
uct. Hundreds of successful
businesses have grown from a
good idea, nutiired with adver
tising. Advertising attracts
new customers, broadens the
market and quality brings re
peat orders. That is why ad
vertising flourishes.

IT IS IMPERATIVE—
That justice shall always be
the aim of the government.
That the sincerity of a
!>reacher shall be above suspic
on.
That purity shall be the
foundation of a home.
That a business shall justify
its profits in service.
That youth shall learn self
mastery.
That- labor shall earn its
wages.
That statesmanship will sup
plant politics.

A dollar doesn’t go far, says
a contemporary, but at that it

CHURCH COMMITTEE
PLANS ENTERTAINMENT
In a circular letter issued
last week, Rev. C. T. Hatten,
pastor of Hyder M. E. Church,’
announced an interesting pro
gram of sermons and church
activities for the coming seas
on.
Included in the sermon pro
gram are a number of sermons
by Mrs. Hatten, based on,
thoughts from the modern*
poets. The first of these will
be given Sunday, Nov. 16. The
subject in this instance will be
"Faith and the Modern Pofets,’”
with Edward Markham, world
famous author of “The Man
With the Hoe”, and other
virile poetical efforts, as the
subjedt of discussion.
The second of these sermons
by Mrs. Hatten will be on
Robert Service, the noted
Northern poet, whose Yukon
verses are known and loved
by all true Northerners, and
will be given Nov. 30. Those
who were so fortunate as to
hear Mrs. Hatten’s sermon on
“Modern Parables,” will as
suredly not. miss the forthcom
ing ones.
Th*e letter also announces
the organization of five com
mittees to help carry on the
church activities during the
winter. These include a Call
ing Committee, Mrs. J. D. Ly
ons, chairman; an Entertain
ment Committee, of which
Miss Marion Hunt is chairman;
a Community Welfare Com
mittee, Harry Lyon, chairman
and a Finance Committee
headed by Ernest Blue.
NORTH & SOUTH SUSPENDS
Work on the North and South
Line properties in the Glacier
Creek area has been discontin
ued for the winter but will be
resumed on a large scale next
spring, according to Gustave
Seiffert, manager.
Although development was
considerably retarded by ad
verse weather conditions dur
ing the past summer, a large
amount of work was done on
the property, including the
driving of close to 130 feet of
tunnel, together with an ad
ditional 70 feet of drift on the
main ore body, the full width
of which has not yet been de
termined. Cabins aind other
buildings-were also construct
ed during the season.
It is the intention to install a
compressor and erect an up to
date camp next year. During
the winter the present unit
syndicate will be converted
into a corporation and com
bined with the O & H Synd
icate, which is held by the
same interests as the North
and South Line.

Two men were recently pick
ed up by the U. S. S. Unalga
when their sail boat capsized
near Cape Fanshaw. They
were John R. Lane, of Elkhorn,
Nevada, and E. P. Wheeler, of
New York, both civil engin
eers. They bought a sail boat
in Los Angeles for the purpose
of going to Seward to prospect.
They left Gray’s Harbor, Wn,,
August 16, for Alaska, dn
September 16 v the two men
left Ketchikan and started up.
the coast. Near Cape Fanshaw
they encountered a stiff breeze
during which their mainsail
jibed and became entangled
and the boat-capsized. They
climbed to the top of the keel,
where they remained until
taken off by the Unalga sev
eral hours later. The men were '1
taken to Juneau and the, boat
abandoned.

Hyder lady to her husband
“Is my face dirty, or is it my
imagination?”
“I don’t know about your im
agination,” replied her hen
pecked spouse, “but your face
is clean.”
No one ever suspected Noel
Traversy of having a poetical
bug, but listen to this one he
pulled the other day.
She' asked her papa for a car,
She said she wouldn’t drive it
far,
She tried to keep her promise
sweet.
And hit a tree across the street.
Chorus of Hyderites viewing
a lady arrival from a distance
“She’s a bear.”
“Some chicken.”
“Oh. what a peach!”
“foirt she a, bird?”
But when they got alongside,
they found she was a lemon..

After painting a beautiful
word picture of the financial
rewards to accrue from an in
vestment in the stock he was
selling, the salesman said:
“Now, Mr. Jones, you know
this company hasn't got a dol
lar’s worth of watered stock in
it. How much are you going to
buy?.”
“Young man,” he said, “the
next stock I buy is going to
have four legs, and I will water
it myself.”
