NATIVES OF ALASKA ABE '
USING POOD SUBSTITUTES
The natives of Southeastern Alaska
) are readily learning to use the various
substitutes under the Instruction ot
Mrs. David Waggoner, who is working
in connection with the home econom
ics division of the Alaska federal food
administration. All over the territory
the natives evince a willingness to, and
do to a large extent, save the foods
needed for shipment to France. Their
greatest trouble has been lack of a
knowledge with reference to cooking
cereals; however they are making ev
ery effort to learn, and are accom
plishing much. In some of the vil
lages pledge campaigns have been
successfully conducted. The Alaska
natives have conserved a large
amount of sugar, a commodity they
have heretofore always consumed in
goodly quantities.

TOKIO, May 2 (by mail).—Includ
ing the last British war relief work
ers to leave Russia, the Anglo-Rus
sian field unit hospital unit, with Lady
Muriel Paget at its head, a party of
forty-five British subjects, war work
ers, consular officials and civilians,
have arrived in Tokio and Yokohama
on their way home.
Lady Muriel Paget is the represen
tative of the London committee of the
Anglo-Russian hospital unit, which is
maintained by subscriptions from Brit
ish colonies. It is one of the organ
izations which answered the call of
the Russian Red Cross in 1915, and
after two years of active work from
Archangel south, into Galicia and'
Rumania, ended up at Odessa, where j
the party waited two months, hoping
to establish a hospital for some fac-!
tion which would fight the Germans, j
“We remained in Russia as long asj
our unit could render aid,” said Lady'
Paget. “However, when peace was
declared with Germany, when the
fighting stopped and our supplies'
were cut off. there was nothing to do
but leave.” Lady Paget went to Rus-j
sia as the representative of the com
mittee in 1915 to replace Lady Sibyl j
Grey, daughter of Sir Edward Grey, j
who had been wounded.
During the winter of 1916 the hos
pital workers went south into Galicia
and spent the winter months in the
Carpathians, near Kirlibaba. At the
time of the final Russian offensive the
unit was told to take part, but the!
drive ended too soon, and the units
went to Kamenetz Podolsk, the cap-|
ital of the government of Podolia,!
where it was the only Red Cross hos-i
pital in the city, and where under;
great difficulty its work of relief was|
carried out.
In ten days 10,000 wounded froin!
the retreat from Galicia were cared
for. The Red Cross contingent then
went into Rumania, to Dorchoi. The
work to be done with the armies de
creased and at the same time it be
came impossible to obtain men and
supplies from England.

TWO SENATORS SOLVE
AN OLD HORSE MYSTERY
WASHINGTON, June 11.—For fifty
years Senator J. E. Ransdell of Louis-;
iana has been looking for the fellow1
who stole his father’s horse.
It wsa during the civil war. A raid
ing party of federal soldiers arrived
at the Ransdell plantation, near Alex-!
andria, and one of the boys in. blue!
mounted that spirited horse and rode!
him away—as far as the gate. There'
the horse threw him off and broke his [
leg. Another Yankee caught the!
horse and led it away.
The other day Senator Ransdell
was discussing the war days with!
Senator Knute Nelson of Minnesota.!
“I was with the Yanks around about
Alexandria, and-”.
Here Senator Nelson was inter
rupted.
“Pardon me, but did you steal myj
father’s horse?”
“No, but I knew the fellow who did.
It happened like this-.” And Sen
ator Nelson related the circumstances
exactly.
But Senator Ransdell has given up
the search for the fellow with the
broken leg. His colleague from the
North settled that quest. The advan
turous youth who rode the horse as
far as the gate has gone to the Big
Reunion, full of years and dignity.

SIIC ESSEML FOODS i
From the rain and wind-swept por
tion of the Pan Handle, or Southeast
ern Alaska, coast towns out to the
Westward, the frozen shores of the
Bering sea country, and the warm
and genial centers of the great Tan
ana valley, in Interior Alaska, come
most encouraging reports of the great
work being done in the matter of sav
ing essential foods. The general ring
of these reports is “We are for our
country; first, last and always.” This
quotation is from our administrator
at Rampart, Alaska, where is located
a government experimental station,
and is indicative of the cooperation
being given by consumers of food in
Alaska.
