The fact that the paving work IN

station considerable interest and COM
ment was caused.
At s o'clock about twenty teams and
nearly AZ many men started the eS'
cavating work preparatory to laying

which will forever take these entsr-
prising people in this section OF the
city out OF the mud. 4
Another item that makes one feel
proud is the fact that quite a few resi-
dents out on the west end OF Anderson
Street have had good sidewalks put
down. nice concrete driveways have
been built. old fences which are OF no
value in the world have been torn
down and replaced with yard curbs.
and when those who have not already
done so get their new sidewalks down.
II will be a pleasure TO take a stroll
out that way with your friends and
point with pride to one OF the prettiess
residence streets In the entire state.

THINGS AMERICA DON'T NEED.

A Wisconsin pastor, speaking to the
graduates of military academy, said;
This country needs blood letting.
We have grown too gross. Things
worth while are wanting. We need
more Of the rumble Of the cannon and
less Of the music Of the cabaret. we
need the sound Of marching hosts, not
the seductive shuttle and tap.tap OF
the foolish dance. We need the sons
that once awakened nation to glory
not the effeminate tank-tank OF the
ragtime youth. We need men today
and not manikins." Most people VIII
agree that he mentioned a number
Of things that we don't need, though
many will be disposed to withhold ap
proval Of some Of the things he men
toned as substitutes Washington

The Smoker

A thousand men gathered at the Douglas Natatorium last Thursday night to witness the athletic entertain ment produced there under the author. ity of the Treadwell Fire Department. Many were kept away by the cold and wind.
 First came the wrestling bouts Barouist vs. Allen, won by Allen on points; and Perovich vs. Stringero, in which the latter won by giving his op. poueut a flying fall.
 Two Japanese gentlemen gave an ex- hibition of what Chief Jack Wilson called "Gee Jootsi," after which Lewis gave some fancy doin's on roller skates.
 Then came boxing bouts in the fol- lowing order
 Olson won from Dubinsky; Stewart handed it to Pleas; Bullington won iu a tight contest with Walters; Davies earned the decision from Niunis; Sal mousou was given hair-liue decision over Graybill; Burgert won from Gall was; Higley was too much for Perry; and Smith got the best of Salmonsou. And in the windup Dermody was bested by Kennedy. The prize for each of the winners was a gold medal. No one was hurt.
 During the intermission between bouts, Prof. E. J. Dyer told funuy stories aud delighted bis hearers.
 Young men to be successful in life must have health and strength, aud the young men taking part iu these con- tests are given careful handling by Athletic Director Tom Mcdonald, that they may each do his best. They are taught 10 train their muscles and live properly. These lessous are invaluable if followed through life.
 Many years ago Douglas boy who was puuy and sickly, was induced to join an athletic club. Tbe exercise, at first a torment, became a pleasure, and the boy developed strength and gained health, and is today among the strong est aud most active men in Southeast ern Alaska. There is nothing better.
Douglas Island news., 1916-03-08

Last Thursday morning about 10 o'clock the fire bell brought out the de- partmeut and many other citizens. A boarding house belonging to Mrs. Pleas just south of tbe Douglas Steam Laun- dry, was found to be on fire. The wind was blowing a gale from the North and all of St. Ann avenue was in danger. Water was turned into the St. Ann avenue pipe line from the tank on the hill and the fire was soon out. It was very fortunate that the fire boys were able to keep the blaze confined to the one building. Had it extended to two or three others, Douglas would have suffered a terrible loss Those fire boys are mighty good fellows when we need them, and Douglas has a splendid bunch.
 The Alaska Casket & Undertaking Supply Company is the name aud style of a new business organization formed in Douglas. Messrs. l.. c, Thomas, Merl F. Thomas and V. J. Rubin are the principal stockholders. The new company will handle a complete and attractive line of caskets, robes, Innings and handles. They will make, how ever, a speciality of the manufacture of yellow cedar, and cloth covered caskets for export trade Alaska yellow cedar, a wood which dedes the action of the elements for remarkably long period of time, will become popular for the manufacture of caskets of the better grades. The trade throughout the States has become interested and oi- ders have been received from points as far East as Pennsylvania.
 The big show will take place soon after the first of April. Jack Frost Henson will be publicity ageut aud write all the press notices. Pat Me- Guire already has his part learned and aud it is SO good that Pat refuses to play "skat" Ray Gardner walks with a dignided tread aud Ed Murray has more troubles than a politician. The publicity agent promised Co write this notice, but fell down at the last mo meut. When he gets working he will reveal something terribly awful. We forgot to mention that the show will be given by the Douglas Volunteer Fire Department, under the direction of Prof. E. J. Dyer, at the Lyric theatre. There will be several short and thrill ing plays, separated by vaudeville spec ialties. All of the actors are the best of the best local talent.
