Executive Board
 Holds Meeting

For the purpose of passing upon l few matters recently called to the attention of the secretary of the organization, the executive board Df the Fairbanks Commercial club held a special meeting Saturday afternoon. The meeting was held in the private offices of St. George X Cathcart, and. on account of the fact that it was a special meeting of the executive board. all members of the club were excluded as were all representatives of the press.
 Whether or not the press will be excluded from all future meetings of the executive board remains to be cen.
 Despite the fact that members of the press were especially invited 'o remain absent from the meeting Saturday. some of the developments of the session have leaked out. One of the matters taken into considera- ton was a telegram from Thomas R. Riggs of the Alaska Engineering commission, pertaining to the furn- ishing of some data on the Kan tishna country. Another was a letter to. the club from Delegate Wickers am concerning his recently introduced bill asking for an ap- 0ropriation Of s750,0OO for Alaska 'pHds and bridges.
 As reasons for the exclusion of he press from the session. Wallace 'a'fcart, secretary of the Commer-
 ial club stated that Engineer Riggs
 2f asked that no publicity be given his requests for information on any hing pertaining to the railroad and th9t the executive board did not TiSh to publish the contents of the delegates letter However, it is understood that the club will furn- ish tle data asked for by Mir Riggs | an early date.
 The delegates letter is stated to have been an attack on Col Rich irdson of the Alaska Rold Commis-
 i"n. the latter being accused of 'ubserviency to the Northern Com mercial company in the matter of securing an appropriation from the var department for a bridge across the Cinema slough at Fairbanks. In declining to publish the letter of he delegate, different members of the executive board of the club stated that they did not wish to see the organization take sides in a pure " personal fight between the dele gate and the chairman of the road commission. Others accuse the dele g'te of playing politics for the next
 lection" in his letter

Mighty Power of
 Advertising Told

PIQUA 0. - "The newspaper the greatest local sales force and the retailer is the center of distribu- ton and should be the center for advertising" said John Allen Under wood, advertising manager of the Favorite Stove and Range company of this city, ill an address on "A businesslike Consideration of Adver- Using" before the Executives club at the Hotel Sherman.
 Concentration is the secret of success in advertising" MT. Under wood said. If an advertiser has, for example. $35,oO0 to etpend is best for him to select a compara- lively small territory and work tha. for all there is in it. With the pro- fits tfat he will realize he can ex- tend his advertising campaign and the sum total in results will far ex- ceed anything he might accomplish by spreading such a sum over a large territory.
 Seven hundred and fifty million dollars are sreat annuAliS IT t"e United States for advertising. which means more than 50 cents for each person.

England Protected
 By Foggy Weather

From Answers: The weather has often served Britain well in time of war We all know how the weather finished the destruction of the Ar mada, and served us when the French invaded Ireland. and there have been other times when a foe. anxious to raid these shores found his work rendered difficult by bad weather.
 A heavy trunnderstorm at Crecy slackened the bowstrings of the Geno- ese archers of the French, whereas the English kept their bows cased and suffered nothing; and, to come to modern times. the gallant Devons made their famous charge at Wag gon hill. Ladysmith with a thunder storm at their back.
 It is only fitting that fogs should also have aided us at times, It was a heavy mist that allowed Marlbor- ough to get his army across the s;cheldt, although the enemy had gathered to dispute the passage. An son was once we'll served by a fog, which enabled him to slip through a French fleet unobserved. Snow and frost have always hin dered rather than felped. although the terrible winter in the Crimean war showed that we could rise SUI perior even to such handicapS; and Col kelly's march across the snow covered mountains to the relief of Chitral showed the same.

Bostonians When the Juvenile Bos Remember tonians were in Fair Fairbanksansbanks, the young wom-
 en of the company were not permitted to go out with young men. for Mrs. E. Lang, who manages the company, does not permit her charges to have love affairs" or to receive attentions from men.
 But it will be remembered that in spite of this restriction, certain Cf the boys about town were very much enamoured with the attrac- tions of the girls, and were not slow about letting everybody know ct their regard.
 Among the young men who were specially attracted to the winsome little actresses were Jack Barker and George Palmer, though with tNem. ae with others. it was only q lorg-distance courtship of the wireless order for they were not rcrn,itted to court the girls.

A certain Fairbanks lady who came rom the British Isles to Alaska tells many humorous incidents of her trip Fere. some of which are we'll worth repeating. She is very much opposed to strong drink, and her antagonism for it caused her to make one of the first funny mis- takes.
 It was while she was coming across to Fairbanks over the trail that she heard the expression. "boozefighter.' and assumed that it meant a per son who is opposed to intoxicants. So it happened that when tke stage
