HISTORY
TOPIC OF TALK

In a talk last evening at the
Thursday evening program of the Y.
M. C. A.. Hon. w. o. Smith urged
that people of different races should
make an effort to understand the 9TH
er races, which would be a big step
in bringing out more friendly rela-
ton between them.
In his historical talk he told of the
manners of the people, and the story
of the rulers of Hawaii from Kane
hameha to the establishment of the
republic. He showed number of
slides, illustrating his talk with pie
lures of many of the rulers of Hawaii.
Mr.. Smith emphasized that each
race has pride in its accomplish
ments, and other races should make a
study of conditions before judgment
is passed. In conclusion he stated
that all races believe in the funda-
mental principles of fair play and JUS
tice, and he asked that in the study
of Hawaii these facts be taken into
consideration. 49,

Snort Cuts

To Drain Silver.-Perforate the bot tom of a pound baking powder can with many holes. When washing knives, forks and spoons have one or more of such cans in the rinsing pan and place each article upright in It as It Is washed. Pour boiling water over all, remove to another pan or dish for moment, then place on the stove shelf to finish drying. No wiping is required.
 To Repair Wall Paper.-To cover a solled or torn spot on wall paper which has become at all faded, take a piece of new paper of the same pat tern and expose 1t to sunlight until It Is faded to the same degree as that on the walls. The patch will then Do practically invisible.
 4 Great Convenience.-Separate the leaves of a newspaper and cut tn halves, pierce the pad of leaves near one end and hang them over a nail as near as possible to the kitchen table or cabinet. Use them to slip under kettles or anything which would soil the table. They will be handy also for other uses too numerous to mention.

piffsrance In compIexlons.

The difference in the compleSions of people is due to the varying amounts of pigment or coloring materials in the cells of the skin. Very light peo
 pie have very little pigment; very dark people. those with dark eyes and black hair, have a great deal of this colorins material in their cells great many people are neither light nor very dark. They have less than the dark complex. toned people and more than the light complexioned people. When the hair turns gray 1t Is because the pigment has disappeared. As this is due to the loss Of this coloring material. dark com plexioned people turn gray sooner than light complexioned people. The struc' ture of the skin showing how these cell are made in layers can be seen by examining the skin with a microscope

Water Birds.

Water birds. singular as it seems. are the only ones whose skins never by any chance get touched by water. So long as they are alive and long after they are dead they float with an air chamber all round their bodies, cunningly contrived of waterproof feathers closely overlapping each oth- CT. Thus, in a sense. water birds may be distinguished from all others by the fact that they never wash. though we can hardly blame them for that, because If water could penetrate be. tween their feathers the poor things would never be dry.

CITY SCHOOL.
 RANKS H|GH

Skagway has 8 schoo4 system that takes second place to none Of the schools in Alaska when con sidered in the light, of accomplish meats and abilities to produce re- sul's. Parents of the Garden City should consider it a duty to visit i,.e school and witness the pupils aud teachers in their eailY work. The total attendance for the term registers one hundred brgiht boys and girls, who in a few years will be ready to steR forth and assume the responsibilities of life.
 Four regular faculty mem bers comprise the schools busy staff. The first and second grades are under the di, rect supervision of Miss Butt, third and fourth under the direction of Mrs. Bunting, fifth and sixth under the careful control of Miss Moffatt, The eighth grades and the first twt years of high school work are un- der the tutelage of Miss Benthein, principal of the Skagway school.
 Twice a week the pupils of the school are brought together in the asser ply room and there enjoy Q general good time. Monday is de- voted 10 chorus singing and educa' ton to an appreciation of music On Friday, one of the rooms enter tpin the rest of the school in a short program of some sort.
 The manual training department appeals to the boys. The attend arce ill this class will average about seventeen pupils. L. H. Ped ersen takes a delight ill explaining to the boys the art of making HOW CT boxes, book cases, ironing board and miscellaneous articles of use In other words a boy after attend ing the manual training classes for two wears will understand how to maFe things useful for the house ard not be entirely at sea wnen 1t comes to Q question, of con- structing articles.
 Mrs. Reinert is turning out some prize cooks in the domestic science classes. The domestic science room aprears with a pure white en- anel covering, glfstoning forth, which would make any housewife green with envy. Proper methods 10 he employed by the young house keoper are drilled into the minds ot the pupils by the directing hand this is made practicable by labora-. tory experiments and actual work by the young ladies of that class. Sixteen pupils are enrolled in the domestic science classes.
 A peep in the sowing classes will reveal an interesting sight. Little tots ranging ffcm nine to twelve years of age are deftly handling 2 needle learning the various plain and fancy stitches which will later m2ke them good home keepers.
 All iu all, the work done by the boys and girls in the school is com meDdable. The work of the teach CTS is likewise commendable. With all working for the common aim, the advancement of the social cen ter this should prove a banner year for the Skagway schools.

The opponents of Congressman
Claude Kitchin are circulating and
posting circulars blaming the low price
OF cotton and the low price of tobacco
on him by reason of the defeat of the
ship purchase bill. Why do they not
recite therein that the bill passed
through the House without delay be-
cause of the fact that Chairman Kitchin
put forth his efforts to secure a speedy
consideration of the bill, although he
opposed it with the permanent govern

it was not the vote nor influence of

The attention of the Wilson Times
is respectfully called to the following
pertinent facts:
The National Congressional Execu-
tive Committee is publishing over Il
million copies of Claude Kitchin q
speech of December 16, 1915 in defense
Of the Wilson Administration and the
Underwood Simmons Tariff Act, to be
used as Democratic Campaign itera-
ture. If Mr.. Kitchin has been disloyal
to the President, would this committee
use his speech defending the man whom.
lie had been disloyal tos Why is this?
Mister Long -and-Loyal Lover of the

And why is it, Mr.. Wilson Times,
that you haven t the fairness and mag
nanmity to tell the people that Mr.. Kit

stood with the President and the party
and was an active and helping leader
ia the fight for the Democratic Tariff

The Wilson Times, in an editorial OF
recent date, stated that Claude Kitch-
in g ssbump Of ego' had grown so
large amid the high life of Washing
ton that he was not any longer in touch
with the people down home, and con-
sequently misrepresented their senti-
ment. The inference was that he had
grown above his constituency. The
impression that the Times attempted
to leave upon those who happened to
read this piece of editorial effort was
that Claude Kitchin, silk-hatted, kid
gloved, manicured within quarter-of-
ar inch of his life, with his head check
cd up high in the air, strutted about
the corridors of the National Capitol
ignoring the pulse of the people he
represented and never for the once
consulting them about legislation.
And Of all the eight counties of the
Second District, this coming from Viii
son! Where, oh where, was that
'ebump' of ego when Mr.. Kitchin got
an appropriation of $4,000 for fed
oral building in Wilson, Where, again,
was that "bump" of ego, when Colonel
Bruton headed Wilson delegation to
