sort of sympathy for his troops that
General Sherman wanted to express
in his remark. It seemed like an at
tempt on his part to let the boys
know that he knew war wasm't any
fun. too. and that he knew they’d go
on just the same. I can remeber
it as if it had been yesterday.”
General Winslow is dead. The
other members of his staff were con
siderably older than Mr Koolbeck, so
he believesthat he is the only living
man who heard General Sherman say
"War is Hell." at the River Pear!
A DOOMED FORTUNE
The Kaiser's greatest war profits
come from the Krupp gun-works at
Essen. JuSt how large his Holdings
are cannot be determined, as the
Krupp concern refused to show its
books in the recent profiteering in
vestigation conducted by the reich
stage. and that body has no power to
enfs-ee its demands. The statement,
however, is made On the authority of
Geneva bankers who recently return
ed from Frankfort that the kaiser
before the war had been a large
shareholder in Kruop's: in fact, one
of tne la-gest holders of the shares
next tc Frau Bertha" Krupp von
Eohlen. S;nce the war began the
kaiser is said to have increased his
shares in the works by purchases
amounting to $25,000,000.
That the kaiser, long before the
present war. was an enormously
wealthy man was nowhere denied,
As King of Prussia he enjoyed a civil
list of $4,500,000 a year. He is the
greatest landowner in Prussia, and
nas an immense private income. His
grandfather left him a fortune of
Sro.SOO.OCC. He has many castles
and palaces in various parts of Ger
many. upon which he has expended
immense sums. He bore practically
the entire expense of maintaining and
conducting the imoerial opera in Ber
lin. and when he traveled on his mag
nificently equipped railway train it
-ost him $50 a mile.

IMMENSE THRONG
GATERS JO HONOR
RETURNED SOLDIERS
Ketchikan, like some persona rich
ly endowed with fine sentiments, al
ways finds something to rejoice and
make merry over, but -perhaps the
happiest occasion for many moons
was the gathering last evening of Ket
chikan's best people to welcome
home the returned heroes of khaki
and blue, at special invitation of the
F. O. E. who were hosts for the even
ing.
Certainly Mocse Hall has not look
ed so resplendent nor seen such a
large gathering, since the last big
dance given the drafted boys last
spring, nearly a yeer ago. The pretty
gowns of the girls and matrons and
the plentiful sprinkling of uniforms
of sailors and soldiers, made the
scene one not soon forgotten.
Raymond's orchestra as usual dis
pensed the very jazziest of music and
the merrymaking continued until a
late hour this morning.
SCHOOL BOARD MEETING
The regular monthly meeting of the
Ketchikan School Board will be held
at the office of the Superintendent of
school at 7:30 Monday evening Feb. 3
KETCHIKAN BOYS I
WIN SCORE 33-12
The first basketball of the year,
held between the Ketchikan High
School team and an outside team,
was played last evening at the Moose
Hall, resulting in a clean walk-away
for the local boys. They played the
Kasaan native team, who had no
chance hardly from the first, after
the Ketchikan boys found them. John
ston Van Marter was referee.
Capt. S. Pederson, who will be in
charge of the cannery at Nakat Inlet
this year, left for Seattle last evening
to complete his arrangements for the
coming season.
Carl Thiele Appointed
In Lamb’s Place
Carl Thiel has been appointed by
the governor to succeed Dr. Frank
Lamb, a victim of influenza, as health
officer with headouarters at Marshall
cn the Yukon river.
Thirty per cent of the adult native
men in the Kuskowln. Ma-shall and
Ndson island have died ef Soanish
influenza, according to a telegram re
ceived. The report says conditions are
serious there, and unless immediate
'elief is seuured. there is grave dan
q» that a la-go percentage of women
.-■nd childen will also succumb to the
disease.
CORRECTION.
In Thursday's issue a notic publish
ed advising of the sale of the Ketchi
kan Auto service to Mr. Geo. Forrest,
which was an error. Mr. Forrest
simply purchased frcm Mr. Benolkin
the latter's half interest in the truck
of the Alaska Transfer, and the Ket
chikan Taxi and Auto service still re
mains under the.name of Mr. Benolkin,
who assures his patrons he will still
be on hand to give them his same
>aithful service.

is the Quality Right ?
THAT'S a vitally important question you'll want to
ask yourself when you buy your new clothes.
In normal times this question don’t bother folks very
much. But times have changed. A good many manu
facturers and retail merchants are lowering quality
to meet price demands.
We have always conducted our store on the idea that
to attain the highest degree of success a business
must be built like a skyscraper—“for keeps. And
when we started in business here we put into immedi
ate practice our theory that to build “for keeps” re
quires adhering to the legltest quality standards and
giving full value—selling thoroughly dependable mer
chandise at absolutely minimum prices.
Buy your clothes at this store and you will have a
feeling of security that both quality and price are
right because we sell
