CHINESE AND OPIUM BEING
SMUGGLED INTO PHILIPINES
MANILA. July 21—Smuggling of
Chinese and opium into the Philip
pine Island from ports in British
North Borneo continues on an exten
sive scale, aeording to Vicente Al-!
danese, insular colector of customs,'
who has just returned from a visit
to half a dozen ports in the south
.
ern part of the Philipine archipel
ago.
Colector Aldanese declared that
the immigration laws of Philipines
need to be changed to provide a pen
alty for those who are found to have
entered the islands through illicit
means. He says lack of this kind
of a provision in the present law is
being taken advantage of by the
Chinese immigrants.
EVERETT, (By Mail)—Display
ing all the solitude commonly at
tributed to the maternal side of the
poultry family, a barred Plymouth
Rock rooster, standing two feet
high has assumed charge of a- double
brood of chicks which were dessert
ed by their natural “mother” here
a few days ago.
“Bud” the rooster, makes a seem
ingly ideal poultry-yard nurse.
Whenever a choice morsel finds its
way to the poultry larder, whether
a fat worm or a kitchen scrap, "Bud
calls excitedly and distributes the |
treat without taking any himself. 1
On warm. sunny afternoons.
“Bud” is commonly found lazily
settled in a dusty corner of the
chicken pen, with one or two chicks '■
perched on his back and wings and
the rest of the brood settled com-1
fortably about him. At night he I
nestles them under his wings for'
shelter from the cold.
Adam Swan, loyal citizen of Val
dez, who has lived there continu
ously for twenty-five years, in a ;
letter to The Alaska Weekly, ex-'
presses the confident belief that
that good old town has not been wip
ed off the map. but that it is
there to 3tay. He says that Valdez
has suffered, as other Alaska towns
have suffered, as a consequence of
the world war drawing many people
from it into other lines of endeavor,
but that things are on the improve.
