Japs Work All the Time

Literally the japanese work all the

find japanese men and women at work
In their shops at two. three and four
o'clock In the morning. They must
work like this or starve. They live d.
rectly in the rear of their places Of
business. Their entire household
equipment comprises q few mats, a
few cushions and a little tableware.
They go at their job-whether-i It con-
sists OF making clogs or inlaid cuff
buttons - and work and work and
work until they are exhausted. Then
they sleep a little and go back to
work. II does not take a Japanese
zen minutes to eat his meal of rice
and fish. He has his festivals, OF
course, and a good many OF them; but
he works the rest OF the time; and in
many households II must be a special
and personal festival. connected with
some individual or family gods. to lure
him from his occupation. He needs
the money.-Samuel q. Blythe In the

a Juvenile court. rs seldom the boy

finds. and social workers will agree
with him. that the lad who Ii tempted
to follow the downward path is the
lad who is deprived Of proper home
influences. The tone of family de
ponds largely on the mother, but the
father should not restrict himself to
the humble though necessary position

many observers, too many boys, whose

EDWARD KRAUSE A PRUSSIAN Mrs. Christie's Life Up to the Present
 Time.
lFrom Juneau Empirel

The name of Mrs. William Christie has been used frequently in connec- tion with the disappearance of her husband, and in discussing the re- lation of Edward Krause to the ab- duction of Christie and his apparently enforced absence. However, little has been said that would enable the public to form an opinion as to the appear ance and character of Mrs. Christie. In all the investigations the Empire has made, not a word of dotraction has been spoken of her. In appear ance she is about five feet six inches in height, has slender form, grey eyes, very dark brown, almost black hair, is rather good looking and ap- pears to be very intelligent. She is native of Alsace- Lorraine, a form CT Fench province, lost to Germany as a result of the Franco-Prussian war of 1870. She was reared in the city of Muhausen, having been born there thirty-two years ago At the age of sixteen she went to Havre, France where she immediately embarked for this country, landing in New York and going from there to Massachus- etts. In this state she lived for some time in the town of Newton Center and Milton, where she earned her living as a seamstress and dressmak- CT. From there she went to Newark, N. J., where she lived eleven years. There she met John Gaseous, her first husband, who was also an AIsatian. After living in Newark about a year she was married, and continued to live there until the removal, with her husband and family to Petersburg, Alaska, a little more than five years ago.
 "Mrs. o. Widemann of Douglas, a sister of Mrs. Christie, said yester- day to an Empire interviewer that Krause told her he was a native of East Prussia, having been reared near Koenigsberg, near the international boundary line between Prussia and Poland. Krause told the officers who arrested him at Seattle that he was half German and half Swede, but this statement was made, it was reported while he was representing himself as Ole Moe, whom the Seattle authorities claim Krause put out of the way and then impersonated to suit the ad- vantage"

NO WAR TRUST

nREPAREDNEss can be stined in It's in
i fancy beyond all hope OF recovery by
the simple process OF forming n War Trust,
MFR. Forts millions would not be drop
In the bucket compared with the effect to
be achieved by a thousand demaSogues run

urging preparation were those with money
invested In factories producing war muni-
tions. Give Mr.. Bryan handle of that sort
and he win find enough support In Con-
gress TO emasculate any program for relief.
A War Trust would mean millions OF the
public money expended In Government plants.
Already the propaganda against private man

lowing. A War Trust. with the smell of
the Krupp scandals yet in the air, would not
be. conducive 20 enthusiastic acceptance OF

have enrolled In the evening schools have
discovered this simple but fundamental fact

lack OF preparation and denouncing society
for not giving them a chance TO get on. they
