ANCHORAGE.—For funds to con
tinue the endowment of beds in the
American Military Hospital at Xeu
illy, France, a campaign is in pro
gress among employees of the Alas
kan Engineering commission. Money
will be collected at Nenana, Fair
banks, Seward and Anchorage.
In the hospital at Neuilly there
is a room that last year was en
dowed with sixteen beds by em
ployees of the Department of the
Interior. Ten of these sixteen beds i
are accredited to Alaska, namely, j
two to Nenana, one to Fairbanks, ]
one to Seward and six to the An- j
chorage division of the Government
railroad. Of the six accredited to
the Anchorage division, three are
named for Anchorage and one each
for Turnagain Arm, Matanuska and
Talkeetna.
The task of maintaining the beds
in the Interior Department Room
j in the Neuilly hospital rests on the
Interior Department War Work
■ Association, which is an auxilliary
j of the American Red Cross and of
! which Mrs. Franklin K. Lane, wife
I of the secretary of the interior, is
' president. Of the Anchorage branch
of the association, Mrs. William C.
Edes, wife of the chairman of the
1 Alaskan Engineering commission, is
the head.
The sum of $600 maintains one
bed for one year. To raise the
$3,600 needed for the maintenance
for another year of the six beds
j that were established last year by
employees of the Anchorage division
, of the Government railroad, every
j °ne of the 1,580 persons on the
division payroll will have to donate
at least $2, and then some. If the
ordinary employees contribute $2
each, or in other words a total of
$3,160, the balance of $440 re
quired to make up the necessary
$3,600 will be subscribed by the
officials of the Commission.
WAR SLIDES ARRIVE;
TO BE SHOWN SUNDAY
The arrival of 100 war slides, in
cluding a complete set of “Our
Boys in France”, is announced by
the management of the Coliseum,'
and the first of these views are to
be shown Sunday night, as part of i
the program. >
The slides are photographs, the
first of which was taken on April 2,
1917, when President Wilson called
a joint session of congress and force-;
fully reviewed the long list of crim-;
inal charges against Germany. The j
slides will be shown in their regu- i
lar order, those selected for Sunday j
- being the first six of the set. This :
i Part of the program will immediately j
precede the four-minute address. j
The management of the local i
j theater has been put to considerable j
j expense to secure these slides and j
! the innovation is in line with the J
I policy to keep the Coliseum up to j
j date in every respect. A late pic- •
I ture of President Wilson will also j
j be shown on Sunday.
The titles of the slides to be:
i shown Sunday are as follows:
Joint war session of Congress in
j 1917
I Mustering office.
! On parade at an Officers’ train- j
; ing camp.
A battalion in training, marching j
. double quick up a hill.

WOMEN TAKING

AIM snips;
SEATTLE.—To join their sisters '
who are bearing man-sized burdens
due to war conditions, come now the
woman cook, messwoman and mess
girl aboard an ocean steamship.
They swell the ranks which already
include women mail carriers, women
elevator operators and women in
raihvay yards and factories.
Capt. Harry VV. Crosby, Seattle!
shipping, is responsible for the latestj
innovations which have aroused
great interest on the waterfront
where manpower has been depleted
by the war, in the Alaska and Cali
fornia trades.
“Through the United States ship
ping eommisi/oner, I have signed on
three women as members of the
crew of the steamship H. B. Love
joy and they are doing fine work,”
[Captain Crosby declared, after a few
days trial of the new help.
“The women prepare three meals
a day and a night lunch when the
| vessel fs loading in port. They are
I now on their second voyage and
have made good. The men say the
j food is better cooked and the serv
I ic* is improved since the women took
1 charge of the galley.
“They are paid the union scale
with overtime for extra work at night
i while the vessel is loading.”
Mrs. A. E. Ferguson is cook of
the Lovejoy, and the messmaid and
messgirl are Miss Anna Larsen and
Blanche Welling. I coined the words
messmaid and messgirl and have sug
gested that they be used by the
United States shipping commissioner
i in signing women as members of
crews, for I believe more vessels
. will be using them before the war I
is over.”
