MUNICIPAL ELECTION

On the Sth Of April, a little less than one month from today, will oc- cur the SkagTay municipal election and 1t will be well for the voters in the meantime to consider the qualifications of those whom they purpose supporting 10 represent them for the coming yea, instead of putting off until the last moment this important question. In addi- ton to the selection of seven mem oers of the town council there will be a director of the public school board to elect, the lerm of Martin Conway, who now fills that position. expiring next month.
 So far as the members of the town council are concerned, We are heartily in favor of returning the entire present board (with the eX- ceptiou of Geo. W. Magee, who has taken up his residence ill Seattle). There is not a member of it who has not at all times erinced the nest lively interest in civic affairs. The board with the limited means at it's command has made public i'm yrDyements that are a decided bene- lit 10 the town, notably the com pletion of the wingdGm in the Skagway river for the protection ot ;hc town from floods, the building of rae arterial trunk line sidewalk be- tween Second and Twenty-Third streets, the construction of q firH .,,se house on the stub alley be- tween 22d and 23d streets, and in addition there have been many things done that, while not so mo- ticeable as those mentioned, are of importance, neyerthlesS.
 Almost without exception, unless out of town, each member has been prompt in attendance Gt the semi monthly meetings, while in the tra alsaction of the business Of the town everything has always been conducted harmoniously and with nrt friction.
 To Martin Conway, the retiring director of the school board, We be Haye the thanks of the parents of tae district are due for his effi- cent services in behalf of their rhildren's welfare and educational progress during the whole of the lime that he has held office. If Mr. Conway can be persuaded to accept the position for another term, instead Of putting in sorae one who IS not so thoroughly in touch with the work, we believe the school VII be a gaiuer thereby.

VETERAN INHALER TO
 RETURN TO THE ARCTIC

Capt. $. F. Cottle, veteran whaling ship mascer of the Arctic ocean, which he has invaded each summer for the mast quarter of a century, will return to the icy sea the com ing season as commander of the power schooner Ruby, During the seasons of 1918 and 1914 he com m@nded the famous old steam whal- 1T bark Belvedere.
 The Ruby last year entered the Arctic with $50 tons of supplies for tie Hudson Bay company, the Roy al Northwest Mounted Police and the Stefansson Arctic expedition, her destination being Herschel island, rear the mouth of the Mackenzie river. Great fields O. ice blocked her | passage tC the island and she had to turn westward anG head for Der ing sea. She placed the supplies in winter quarters at Teller, Alaska.
 The Ruby will sail May l from Seattle wltr cargo for the Kuskok- vim river district, and after dis charging in that river will proceed to Teller where she will reload the Herschel island supplies and then tackle the eastward Arctic voyage again.
 The coming season will be Cot ties twenty sixth year in the Are tic ocean. For seventeen years ne sailed under the flag of the New Bedford Whaling company of Mas sachusetts with the result that he knows the Arctic like q book from the Atlantic side as well as from the Pacific side, the com pany's vessels entering the sub polar sea from both the major oceans. He has operated on the Pa cific side for many years.
 The supplies in storage at Tel Ter include seventy-five tons of provisions for the StefanssOn eN- petition, part of the shipment con- sisting of twenty tol.s of pemmican. The mounted police and Hudson Bay aompany's supplies consist of gen. eral provisions and tho material for three new trading posts for the fur corporation.
 The famous power schooner Bend CT Brothers, will continue in the Seattle -Kuskokwim river route, the coming season, sailing from Seat tie April 25. Captain Knaflch, who has been sailing out of Seat tie for the past eighteen years and is one of the best known masters in he Alaskan trade. will retain com- mand of the schooner. Knaflich was the first man to establish a regular service between Seattle and the KuskCkwim district. Seven years ago ke placed the Bender Brothers iu the route and since then the well known schooner has served as the connecting link be- tween Seattle and the Kuskokwim. Shields and Knaflich have been in partnership for the past year,

THE GAME FOR THE STUDENTS

At least once every year something
is said or written about the possibility
Of taking the big Thanksgiving game
back to Kansas City. True, we don't
hear so much about it as we used to.
but there are still many persons who
would like to see the teams return to
their old battle ground at the mouth
of the Kaw.
We, too, used to look back to. the
old days when the game in Kansas City
seemed to mean so much and long for
its return to the scene of lights and
sights, but time has surely proved the
wisdom of playing the game in the
respective college towns. The game
is primarily contest for the students
of the two universities. 1t could new
er be that as long as it was played
away from home.
This year it has been demonstrated
more than ever that the place for the
Kansas game is at Columbia and Law
renee. Think Of what the home-com-
ing means to the old grads. Think
what it means to the civic pride of
both towns. The paraoe. staged at
Columbia when the game is played
here, is just one feature that would
never be possible in Kansas City. But
more important than anything else is
the fact all the students in one univer-
sity or the other may see the game at
least twice during their college life
and participate in all the side issues
which accompany it. The game is
truly one for the students, and thank
goodness the time has passed when
1t will ever be possible to take it back
to Kansas City.

PASSING OF THE ssCALPER'

In the old days when Missouri and
Kansas staged their annual battle in
Kansas City. it was sometimes neces-
sary for a person who wanted good
ticket to pay as high as IS. This Is
no reflection on Kansas City, but, as
is the case in nearly every big cit.
when an attraction drawing thousands
of people is announced, the ticker
scalpers got in their crooked work
The scalpers lost a good deal when
the game was taken to the college
towns.
The fact that the sale Of tickets has
been entirely in the hands of the ath-
letic departments of the two schools
has been a big factor in eliminating
the scalper. C. L. Brewer. director Of
athletics. deserves special commen.
dation for the manner in which ht
has handled the Kansas game this
year and in other years. w. o.
Hamilton of the University of Kan.
sas has co-operated with him In his
fight for cleaner athletics.
1t is nightly big job to stage an
attraction Of such magnitude as the
Kansas game, but all the arrange
ments have certainly been handled
smoothly this year.

THANKSGIVING AND FOOTBALL


We are observing today one of the
distinctly American holidays. Thanks
giving, because of its connection with
the early events in our history, should
stir in every American feelings of rev.
erence, patriotism and national pride.
Yet are we not departing somewhat
from the spirit in which the day was
instituted?
This Thanksgiving we are entertain
ing within our city hundreds of visit
ors on the occasion of a great inter-
collegiate game. In the enthusiasm
and excitement of the favorite Amer
lean sport, we are in danger of over
looking the real purpose of the day
and IL investing it instead with
some of the commercialism of ma
terial age.
Charles H. Grasty recently charac-
terized the United States as the most
disobedient and irreverent of nations.
A part of this irreverence is undoubt-
edly shown in the recent decline of
such distinctive national holidays as
independence Day and Thanksgiving.
Is it not time to check this national
tendency toward irreverence and get
back for one day, at least, to the spirit
Of our sturdy New England ances-
tors?
In the heat and turmoil of our in
dustrial civilization, it is well that we
should have one day in the year free
from the roar of machinery and the
wild rush after gold, day consecrated
to rest, reflection and thanksgiving for
the good things we as a nation enjoy,
day when we may pause for fresh
breath and get new grip upon life
and the situation before Us.
With all the rest of the world at
war. we in America undoubtedly have
much to be thankful for today. Let
US not forget, then, the obligations We
owe our Maker or overlook in the
press Of other things the real purpose
of the day.

certain amount directly for amuse-
ment, but you also must pay, in
supporting asylums, hospitals, and
jails, for the unwise use to which
your neighbor has put his leisure
time.
In these facts lies the soundest ar
gument in favor Of those who would
encourage cities to provide for the
prop recreation Of their citizens.
Many ~ have reached the point
where the necessity for Fairgrounds
and parks, for children, is recog-
nized, Few have yet appreciated the
fact that the grown-up often needs
to be afforded an opportunity for
the right sort of amusement, or he
will choose the wrong sort, and the
community will have to pay the
piper.
All this is not a question of re-
form or "uplift." The question of
proper recreation in crowded centers
of population is the hardest kind of
business problem in dollars and
cents.

HEAVY

Reduction Of so Per Cent in
Number Of Accidents Would
Save 5000 Lives Annually.

A reduction Of 50 per cent IN the
number OF accidents IN mines would
mean the saving OF 1900 lives in the
United states every year, so Albert
II. Fay, OF the Bureau of Mines. told
the members of the Pan-American
Scientific Congress interested in the
conservation of natural resources at
the meeting OF the section discussing
this subject at the Raleigh today.
Three out OF every 1000 men en-
ployed IN mining are killed every year
in accidents. said Mr.. Fay.
Reports fot all metal mines in the
United states, covering a four-year
period. show that thirty men out Of
each, 1000 are Injured sufficiently as to

PLEADS FOR PROPER
CARE OF THE EYES

Looking not only upon wine, but upon
anything else that is red-especially red
walls, red signs, red lights, etc.-is
very. very bad for the eyes. The dele
gates to the Pan-American Scientific
Congress were told today by Medical
Director James d. Gatewoou. L. s. A.,
at the general meeting of the medical
section of the congress at the Ebbitt.
DIR. Gatewood is an eye specialist, and
much Of his time as a surgeon in the
army was spent in studying the effect
of color and light on the eyes.
1t Is not generally known that some
of the most authoritative medical spe-
cialists in the world form part Of the
medical departments OF the army and
navy of the United States. Eye. ear.
throat. surgical, sanitation, personal
hygiene specialists are developed in the
service by direction of the War and
Navy departments. so that these men
may have the special knowledge re-
uuired to look after the health of the
soldiers and sailors. Some OF the Gov
eminent laboratories are the best
equipped in the world, and the men IN
charge are encouraged to do original
investigation and research work.
DIR. Gatewood made a plea for cam
paign of education that would acquaint
people with the dangers involved IN
improper illumination and decoration
of the home.
Though there are societies for
spreading a knowledge OF the loss OF
human life and human efficiency
through tuberculosis, impure food, in
fected water, vitiated air, and the like
and though States are legislating con-
stantly on these subjects, there is a
surprising and unfortunate lack of in

PLAN EXHIBITION OF
AMERICAN PRODUCTS

Plans are being discussed in Wash
ington for the establishment in Buenos
Aires of an exhibition of American
products which will be at the same
time a sort of sample room for the dis
play of all sorts of articles 1t IS de-
sired to introduce in South American
trades
l. F. Scheeler. one of the best known
Americans in South America, who is
here assisting with the Pan-American
congress, has been asked to take
charge of the preliminary arrange
ments for the exhibition, and he has
cabled to Buenos Aires to ascertain
the condition of the exposition build
ings there before going ahead with
definite plans. 1t is probable that some
statement may be made regarding the
plan before the end of the congress
next week.
Mr.. Scheeler has been interested in
South American commerce for a num-
Der of years, and is almost as familiar
a figure in the Latin American capitals
as he is in Washington. He is one of
the chief volunteer aids on the staff
of Secretary General John Barrett. and
is I'm Washington at a considerable per-
can to make the scientific congress a
success.
The exposition of American manufac-
tured products TO be established will
be under the auspices of the American
Manufacturers Association, and Ii Is
at their request that Mr.. Scheeler has
taken the matter up.
