desire to call your attention to the necessity that exists for an ad- eqaate exhibit of Alaska's natural
 and ether resources at the Panama
 Pacific International Exposition
 mich will open in San Francisco on February 20, 1915. This ne-
 cessity becomes more apparent
 when 1t is understood that there is
 only s1o, 900 available for this
 purpose, and this amount will be used by the different Bureaus and Departments in Washington in preparing exhibits, and Tn paying
 the cost of transportation Of ex-
 hibits to and from San Francisco.
 For your further information 1 have to advise you that the Alas
 ka Exhibits are directly under the
 control of the Government Exhibit
 Board, Washington, D. C.. of
 which Honorable Adolph c. Miller is chairman, and this Beard will cooperate in every way possible
 within its means, to the end that
 Alaska may be represented al the Exposition in a manner behtring
 is aatural resources.
 W4ia the extremely limited a.
 mount of money available for Al.
 aska's exhibits, it thus becomes
 absolutely necessary that the peo- pie of the different towns and com munities of the Territory should render all the aid that they can in the collection and preparation of exhibits for shipment. Unless this he done the Alaska Exhibit prom ises to be not at all representative of the Territory, and I cannot press to strongly upon you the necessity of prompt and concerted action. The government will pav the cost of transportation of all sx- hibits from their point of shipment in Alaska to San Francisco and re- turn,
 Alaska is entering upon a per iod of unparalleled development; the proposed construction of 6 l system of government railroads from the coast to the interior a t an expenditure of s35, 1000, 900 is 3 step forward in opening to de velopment of various kinds, of rich and important sections; and this has served to direct the at tention of the people of the United States and other countries to this Territory. It means a large in- Aux of people who will make their home here; it means the invest ment of capital in the mining and other industries, and a large ex. pansion of business generally. The desirability of complete exhibit of our mineral, fisheries, timber. agricultural and other resources al the San Francisco Exposition should be apparent to all, as such exhibit will be anxious to see for themselves what Alaska is capable of producing and what it promises fo, the future-therefore the inn portance of the cooperation of all Alaskans in the work of getting the best exhibits possible.

termed the school age, we are likely
to consider that we are too old to

thought enter our minds. Life would
not be worth the living If IL were not
filled with continuous learning. And
by this is not meant study in its
usual sense but the 'art Of learning
by reference reading-and surely such
knowledge is not burdensome.
The question arises as TO how to
enlarge on such learning -hOw to in

do this is by always having at hand

CLOSE FIGHTING IS

German General Tells of Weird

Vfa London fighting.
terrible in its destructiveness, is the
greatest factor and the most important
lesson OF the present war.
This was the statement made to me
by Chief Quartermaster General Won
Wild, at the German headquarters here.
in discussing the various revolutionary
changes in fighting methods since the
opening of the world war.
1.-THE short-range fighting is the
greatest and most surprising military
lesson of the war" said General Won
Wild. 'It has always been figured that
infantry fighting in modern warfare
would be at a range Of more than 1000
cards. Instead of this being true-and
20 the surprise of most military ex-
perts-it has developed that most of
rho fighting has occurred at a range
Of from 60 to 1,5OO yards.
With the latest model of magazine
rifles and machine guns, it is possible
to allow the enemy to approach very
close and then open a terrific and
deadly fire.
II consider this to be the greatest
factor and the most important lesson
OF the war"
Until a week ago. when he was az
pointed as quartermaster general. Won
Wild commanded a division in the field
He described graphically the fearful
slaughter of the British in short-range
fighting. The British soldiers, he de-
Clsred, fought with lion-like bravery
advancing against the German rifles
and guns with a display of almost
superhuman courage.
Il have been deeply touched" the
general said, by going over the battle
fields and finding scores Of dead Eng
lish soldiers presenting the unusual
spectacle Of lying on their backs with
their arms outstretched heavenward."
General Won Wild said he could not
account for the sudden Stiffening OF the
bodies which resulted in the arms of
the dead remaining in the position, pre-
senting such a weird and pathetic pic
ture.

here after a weeks tour of the front in
this section.
During my visits 10 various points of
the German line, / was within fifty-fiTe
miles of Paris at one time
The point OF the German line, nearest
Paris, mentioned by Won W'icgand as
Gfty-five miles from the French capital,
IS south of Noyon in the angie formed
by the Disc and the Aisne rivers.

CUES the best method of developing
