 Dayton O. Carter, an experienced bridge man will start out Monday morning with a bridge crew of eight or ten men to repair all the bridges and trestles of the railway system. Timbers and lumber for the repair of the trestles were received by the commission at Seward on the last trip of the freighter Seward.
 The telephone repair crews are making rapid progress in the replac- ing of the galvanized iron wire by the better and more efficient cop per. One crew of about a dozen men is working from Mile S4 towards the city and the other of about ten men is working out toward Mile S4 from Snow river. When this stretch of copper wire is put the telephone line from Anchorage and Seward will be completely of copper wire.
 Besides the crews and the work done by them as mentioned above there is the section crew of ten men in charge of James Mcconnell, with headquarters at Mile Six, grading and levelling the track from Resur- rectiOn river out to Mile 12 summit.
 From this time forward the force will probably be increased constantly, as NIT. Edes suggested some time ago.

DEAR AUNT MARY PREPARES
FOR THE ORDEAL
Copyright. 1915, by the Newspaper
Enterprise Association

Dear Aunt Mary went to the hos
pital this morning TO be prepared
for the operation Which Will take
place tomorrow. Yesterday she had
a long conference with her lawyer.
and she wrote several letters which
she carefully placed aside In her
drawer.
Her fortitude is something won
derful. She told me yesterday that
II II were not for Dick and me she
would not have the operation.
Don't say that. dear Aunt Mary.
Don't say that. Why. Il just seems
as tho I could not live without YOU"
Yes. you can. dear. and that Is
what makes life so terrible. We can
all live without friends, without
love. without comfort. even without
hope. Margie. my child. | some
times think that happiness is like
opportunity in that II only knocks
at the door OF your heart once. At
least. am sure that II you let one
Joy escape. you will never have a
chance to experience that particu-
lar JOY again"
you make me think, Aunt Mary,
OF a dear woman friend of mine
who died rather suddenly some
years ago. We had been in the
habit of having what we called our
good times together whenever we
happened TO be in the same city.
This woman was the bravest
soul have ever known. and she
lived her life like soldier. un.
complainingly and valiantly, asking
no favor and giving much. When
the time came for her to 20 to the
hospital she wrote me little note
and said. 1 don't think I'm coming
back. Margie. and so want to let

love and OF our many, many happy
hours together. II ] should never
again clasp your hand. never again
look into your smiling eyes. let me
adjure you in memory OF me: let no
good time escape.
That's IL. Margie," interrupted
dear Aunt Mary. Il honestly think
that deaths hardest pang for me
would be the thought that IL I
should leave you forever as a result
back into that hopeless apathy
which has surrounded you so long.
You cannot tell how happy ] am to
see you so much like yourself"
is any one happy, dear Aunt
Mary? Were you ever entirely
happy?" asked.
Yes. dear" she answered. "and
so have you been entirely happy.
but you must remember that hap
piness, like everything else, is not a
constant impression. Ii Is inter-
mittent and most OF us knowing this
are so afraid when we are happy
that our happiness is not going TO
last. that we do not appreciate
what we have. ! always think OF
your Uncle John when you begin TO
worry about your present content
not being Interchangeable. I used to
say TO him, Dearest, | am sure this
is too good to last. Do you think il
can possibly last forever And he
would invariably answer mot like
any other men | have ever known.
who would have sworn by all the
saints above. OF course, darling. IL
will last forever and day, 1 don't
know, dear. and because We cant
tell is all the more reason why we
should enjoy what We have now
Margie. my dear. nothing lasts. and
II we poor mortals would accept
this law instead of trying to ignore
II. we would be much happier"
But, dear Aunt Mary. didn't you
ever long for the old thrill. the old
something which made the stars
sing together and the moonlight
pour it's pictures into your soul
with indelible accuracy never to be
forgotten?"
Yes. dear. and the very poig-
nancy of the longing made me won
der IL | really enjoyed to the utmost
when | might have done So
| changed the subject, little book.
for you must know that | have not
reached the age when mere con-
tentment seems TO be something
