were in no way notified of change in the regulations until punishment was upon them.
 True, the fines may be remitted. Nevertheless an injustice has been done even though the law allows it. And, as if it were not enough that law-abiding natives should be required to give bond they are compelled further to get as sureties citizens; citizens, mind you, of their own country; citizens of the country in which they themselves were born and under whose flag they have been reared. It matters not how much property the natives may have; how good standing they may have in community; how modern their homes how civilized their lives may be-they cannot become sureties for one another because, forsooth, they are not citizens. We would not wonder if the native people of Alaska sometimes find the legal system under which they are forced to serve as illogical, from their point of view, as the white people find the common custom of the aborigines.
 We do not find fault with the law that requires motor boats or any other boats to be equipped for safety to their own occupants and to other vessels, but we do lament the fact tbas such laws are not posted in one or more public places in communities where there are no newspapers to publish them, and that the attention of the native people is not especially called to changes in the law before they are fined. Filming them and compelling them to give bonds is mighty poor way of inform ing any meu whose willingness to ob- serve the law is unquestioned.
 We cannot refrain from suggesting i that if those in authority were as care ful and as exacting in the enforcement of either the spirit or the letter of the laws that deal with the liquor question or make for the moral welfare of the 1 territory as they are in regard to some others, they would do great service to the country. We venture to assert that the transgression of or lack of con- formity unto laws that have to do with morality and liquor have caused the loss of vastly larger number of lives in this district than have all the trans gressions or non conformity to the laws relative to the regulation of motor boats.

The angels that hear the children pray
o. many indeed there are!-
They wait in the world at the end OF day.
Past sunset and evening star;
They walt till the dusk brings the hour OF
sleep,
Then. smiling, they lean to hear
The prayers that come from the lips that
keep
The faith that our hearts hold dear.
And some of the angels are bent and old
Though royal in their attire,
With halos and crowns of the richest gold
And wings that are clear as fire
But bent do they grow: and wrinkles, too.
Come back to each gentle face,
For they are grandparents who one day
The children who lisp their grace.
And some OF the angels are strong and
young,
Yet softly they bend and wait
Till prayers the children are giving tongue
Are waited unto them straight,
I think they are souls that were sum-
moned soon,
And so they are given this:
To hear the wee prayers must be boon
That adds to all heavens bliss.
The angels that hear the children pray
Are gentle and fair and sweet;
They smile when they hear at the end OF
day
The patter of little feet
And some of them gaze through the
depths afar
From where they all wait above;
They search through the worlds till they
find the star
Where they felt their motherlove.
And some of the angels who listen there
Are spirits that never had
The joy and the sorrow, the peace and
care
or children to make them glad
And they are the ones that are PATIENT

Why He Did IL.

There was once man who owned
a large building, and he had clock
set In the wall at each end OF 1t. So
large was the building that 1t required
Ave minutes to walk from one end to
the other.
One time the clocks got out of or.
der, so the man employed an inteili-
gent person to repair them. When
the job was done and the clocks were
running again the man inspected
them.
He went to the person who had
repaired them, and said:
Look here, the clock at one end
of that building is five minutes slow
er than the other
THAT is proper answered the per-
son.
Proper"
Certainly You said the clocks
must agree as to time. Now, when
you are looking at this one you know
that If you took time to walk around
and see the other 1t would agree per-
fectIy with the time you see here!'
