STORIES about town
An Optimist-Patriot
uhen Bin Thompson decided to
quit the hard rock arter thirty years
in powder smoke and go to the clam
beds, bad luck geemed to follow in
his wake as if, to chastise him for hio
f cklcnesg. First, in coming from the
Interior he lost his bed plus thirty
years gatherings. Arriving at Cor
dova, he found that he was a few
days early for the big claim run, so
he accepted a fow ood shits from the
Alaska Transfer Company. About the
second shift, while sacking'coal, he
dropped his glasses, a receipt for a
third Liberty war bond and a five-dol
lar hill, evidently shoveled into a
Back of coal as a prize to some unsus
pecting consumer. Now to show’ that
Bill 1» still an optimist and always a
patriot, after he became convinced
that he had shoveled his spectacle case
Into a sack of coal and the first
shock of the loss had passed he rea
soned' thirsty: That had he not bought
a third Liberty. bond he would have
had a psa-doRar bill in the lost spec
tacle ‘case with no receipt as a means
of identification, whereas he now has
•2.50 in silver left with a good chance
of recovering his glasses. All Bill
wants returned are the glasses and
the receipt for the Liberty bond.

Dark Mystery at the Post Office
Continuation of great mystery of
April 1, of theAyiarT, A. D. Promin
ent member of the house committee
at the Northland club is the victim.
April first broke with a wild howl
of wind and much snow. Tinkle,
tinkle went the bell; the prominent
member fell heir to a phone call. After
some talk relative to his romantic
tendencies he agreed to meet the fe
male Caller at the postoffice at high
noon. i
Noon came and he of doubtful in
tentions sauntered forth to the post
office. After waiting there so long
that one gentlemaft mistook him for
a pillar and tried to lean against him,
he concluded to call off the engage
ment and go back to work. Any one
hating any inside information on this
mjetery please communicate with the
said prominent member.
Mo{to; “Don't cast your bread upon
the water; it will come back to you
as sponge cake.”

GLEANERS AFTER
THE REAPERS
The plan of having the Boy Scouts’
campaign at the end of the regular
campaign in a house-to-house canvass
is the particular service that has been
assigned to the Boy Scouts of America
by the United States treasury depart
ment. Undoubtedly in many cases it
will affect the opportunity of the
scouts to secure credit for a larger
number of subscriptions. It must be
remembered that the Boy Scouts of
America have not been asked to par
ticipate in these Liberty loans for the
purpose of taking the places of other
agencies for securing subscriptions or
for the mere purpose of making a
record.
The Boy Scouts of America have
been asked to serve as "gleaners
after the reapers," and the real
strngth and effectiveness of our work
will be based upon the number of
people whom we induce to subscribe
who would otherwise have been over
looked, and the number of persons
who might be induced to make addi
tional subscriptions because of the
earnest and patriotic appeal of the
Boy Scouts, who are working not for
awards alone but to help win the war.
Almost without exception the
bankers throughout the country have
been appreciative and have heartily
co-operated with the scouts in the
previous campaigns, but it is believed
that because of the definite recogni
tion of the value of the services of
the Boy Scout campaign by the
United States treasury department of
ficials and the chairmen of the differ
ent Liberty loan committees through
out the country, there will be even
closer co-operation. The Boy Scout
application blank, provided by the
United States treasury department,
has been made the same size as other
blanks and is designed to reduce to
a minimum the work of the bankers.
Definite announcement of when the
intensive Boy Scout campaign will
open will be given later. We ex
pect to,open the campaign either Sat
urday, April 20, or Saturday, April 27,
giving us two Saturdays and two Sun
days besides school days in which to
work. I may say here with pleasure
that George Wilson of this town is
the only Boy Scout in Alaska who
won a Liberty loan medal during the
second Liberty loan campaign. It
seems Cordova Troop No. 1 is a live
one compared to other troops in
Alaska.
DAVID C. CZERWENKA,
Scoutmaster.

BRITISH BIRTH RATE
LONDON, April 10.—Notwlthstand
ing the war's carnage the number ol
births in 1916 exceeded by 277,303 the
number of deaths, according to th<
registrar general’s report. Just made
public. The reduction in the numbei
of births amounted to only 12 pei
cent. There was an unprecedented)!
low marriage rate in 1916 as compared
with an abnormally high one in 1915
the decrease being attributed to th<
fact that compulsion for military serv
ice was applied to married men ii
