True Honestv

TO be honest is more than to re-
hrain from stealing another mans
purse. more than paying the exact
number OF dollars you owe. Honesty
means far more than not defrauding
other people financially. 1t means
nothins less than not defrauding your
seit by your own pi sjudices and judg-
ments. 1t means dealing fairly and
sQuareiy with yourself; looking at
yourself with the same eyes with
which you dissect the conduct of your
associates."-Clara X. Bayliss.

BEGINNING
OF SPRING

According to the Golden North AL
manac spring began 2:29 pm. March
20, Alaska standard time. Spring is
supposed to begin at what is termed
the vernal equinox that is, the first
time in the year when he day and
night are equal: the length of the Icy
is then Il hours; the suA is ascending
6 hours, and descending the same time.
When the sun is in this situation the
horizon o. every place is divided into
two equal parts by the circle bounding
light and darkness; hence the sun
is visible everywhere u hours and IN
visible for the same time il every II
hours The Vernal equinox is supposed
to be on March Il, and even the differ
in the standards of time would not be
sufficient To account for the discrepancy
betW cen that day and the day ana hour
set by The Golden North Almanac: Gut

ton, with its 10Th Gay added 10 Febru-

Whether absolutely correct or not, the
almanac is good enough an;ho lily for
all practical purposes and may be ac-
copied as such without question. BY
it the rising and setting Of the sun is
given as follows during the days of the

MRS. STRONG TELLS
ABOUT HER TRAVELS

From a letter to Mrs. Robert Ora
ham from Mrs. J. F. A. Strong dated
Berlin December 81 the Pioneer is
permitted to quote as follows:
1--WE left Seattle in November and
sailed from New York for Liverpool on
the Lusitana and after staying in Lon
don until we were worn out sightseeing
we started for Holland. Landed at
The Hook and visited Rotterdam,
Schiedam, Deft, HARLEM, The Hague,
Amsterdam, etc. We were charmed
with Holland-with its quaint wind
mills and canals, its quainter people
with their wooden shoes, etc. From
Holland we came on to Germany. We
spent Xmas with old friends Of mine
and some Of my former classmates
Had a fine timea tonight-Sylvester
evening as it is called in Germany-we
spent with friends watching the old
year out. From here we make tour
through Belgium, France, Spain and
Portugal. At Lisbon we board the
Victoria Louise and make a 75-day
trip on her-visiting Cadiz Algiers,
Gibraltar, Genoa, Villefranche, Monte
Carlo, Nice, Syracuse, Malta, Port
Said, Egypt, Nile, Jaffa, Holy Lands,
Bsyrouth ,Piraeus, Suez canal, Red sea,
Kalamaki, Athens, Smyrna, CONSTANT
nople, Messina, Palermo, Naples,
Rome. On the 9th of April We board
the Cincinnati at Naples for home and
expect to reach New York about the
18th, and will DO doubt be in Seattle by
the 18th OF April, where letter ad-
dressed to me at the Frye hotel will be
joyfully received We are more i'm
before, and after travelling so much we
realize what Alaska really is as com
pared with other lands and clmeS
Many people over here have never
heard of Seattle, but they have all
heard of Alaska, the land OF gold, and
also OF the KlOndike. So, You see, we
are IOG 81 idE OuJ VI ll(S worm DIS we
sometimes try to make ourselves think
We haven't heard one word from I0it-
arod since the last boats arrived in
Seattle, and we think of you all so
often and hope that all is we'll, Mr.
Strong was walking along Unter den
Linden the second day we were here

The world is very small after all, isn'i
it? We were invited to Shamrock

cided to come on to Germany. AT The
dinner table here | told and described
Mrs. Peterson's Xmas dinner last Xmas

good for the number Of men ell,
gagged.
Next summer Ophir, Gaines and
Yankee creeks will all be active
aud between 200 and 800 men will
be employed. It will be all open

The quartz mill on Carter creek
was expected to start up the first Of
the present week. 1t had been
hoped to have the mill III operation
by the first OF Ma. oh, but delay in
getting parts Of the mill freighted
over made this impossible. Mr.
Coleman says the property is looked
on as very promising by those who
are most familiar with it.
Ten or twelve people from the
vicinity of Ophir went into Mud
river last fall. Four or FIVE have
returned and report that good
prospects were found Oh one branch
of Mud, but nothing. could be
proved on account Of wet grouad.
The mail to Op-ir has been ar
irving once month this winter and
has given satisfaction There was
only one mail all last summer, and
lots Of complaints were then heard
