filed with touch of comedy last night which was n good thing, is in reality n serious one. However. the wholc o,,estion of relief was much mor' serious one three weeks ugo than II l Is today and It would seem that w. might expect the roadhousr situation
 ,o he. smoothed out us have ull of the serious situations arising from the storm.
 Certain 1t is that the roadhouses are most essential and we here m Non' wouid indeed be in q rather bad plight if any of the stations along the tra.l went out of business. But It is just :.s certain that these roadhouscs will h, properly looked after and their wunts. in so far as it is possible. met.
 The desire of those In charge of thu ,roiis and mail route to facilitate the reconstruction and rehabilitation of th'' roa,lhouses for the benefit of Nome and of wayfarers along the trails is commcndable. It shows devotion to in. service which assures it's efficiency. The co.opc,,tion of the committee in charge of relief also shows that t real izcs the importance of these onthnd posts and will dn it's share in rc-cs- tublishing them.
 What more can We ask? The dcsti- tutc in Nome are being provided for or scnt out, the r0adhouses. which are so undoubtedly an important link be- tween us and th outside world. are re- c-iving help and will receive enough help tu enable them 10 keep running through the winter There is money in the relief fund, stores and lumber on ,be WHY and everybody is fairly happy. or ought to be.
 The desire of the head of each de- partment to see that his particular department Is put into efficient work able shape is natural and he would bc poor official who did not put tn" efficiency of his own department above all others and do his utmost to secure and maintain that efficiency. On the other hand those handling the relief funds must look to the greatest good tu Ihr greatest number and weigh to tho best of their ability the claims that arc made upon them.
 But, withall. we need not worry about the winter. The same hand that has provided for the present will pro vide for the future. The same con ciencious officials who are now work ing for their departments will bc working for them all winter and the same efficient committees who are now investigating needs and handing out relief will be doing the same thing all winter. Therefore. IL would seen, that We have not so terribly much tu worry us after all and all that we need 10 do is to each do his best in his "w'' particular line. as Is being done now and to trust a whole lot in the mate goodness of our feilowmen and in the ability of each other to see things as they are and to do our best for all with the means at hand. Anyway tn" prospect is a good deal brighter than if was and we are thankful to those
