MIU WRITES
THAI OLDTIMERS
NOT ATTRACTED
According to a letter received in I
Xenana this week by Andy Roth,
the Alaskan Engineering commis- \
sion is advertising extensively in
Seattle in an effort to secure work- j
ers for the Government railroad in
Alaska. ' >
“There are a lot of Alaska fel
lows around here now,” the letter (
says, "and they all want to go back. ,
But they cannot see anything to go .
back for. The railroad is advertis- ,
ing in the papers for men, but the
wages they offer are so small that j
everyone laughs at them. The only ,
fellows who are going are a few ^
who do not know any better and ,
want to get into Alaska.”
The letter was written by Willis (
Nicley. former well-known resident ,
of Alaska, who went Outside last
year to take a fisheries course at
the University of Washington. “I
finished my course last week, ’ he
writes, “and passed fine. 1 have my
job inspecting for the canners and
will travel on the coast, I think.” |
Mr. Roth explains that Nicley
has not yet completed his studies.
Like other students who are taking
the same course, he will spend his
vacation at work, securing prac
Itical experience in the fisheries in
jdustry. The job he speaks of is
1 with the National Canners’ associ
iation. There were 53 applications
! for the place, some of the applicants
i having had previous experience in
I the work, but Nicley landed the
j place in spite of that handicap, and
| without influence.

ured those who attend.
“War Brides” is a masterpiece
rom the studio of Herbert Brenon,
vho is now recognized as the most
irogressive of all directors of pho
odramas.
The drama begins with a series
>f pictures of the lives of peasants
ind their hard struggle for exist
mce. Joan, the central figure,
dayed by Nazimo, is loved by a
roung man of the village and they
ire betrothed. Then comes the
hadow of approaching war and
:hey are married.
The young husband goes away to
:he war and is killed, and soon after
he military authorities begin a
■novement to get the young women
of the neighborhood to wed depart
ing soldiers, that the empire may
oave another generation of fighting
men. Joan objects and is thrown
into prison, from which she later
escapes and heads a delegation of
women who protest to the king.
When they meet the monarch, Joan
kills herself, as her message from
the women, their refusal to make
another generation victims of a ruth
less militarism.
