by Rev. w. NJ. Rodney and music was
furnished by Mrs. Ella Scott
THE tired body was then laid to
rest in Forest Home cemetery against

 Never since the Pilgrim Fathers landed on the then mhospitabe shore of America has there been such cause for celebrating any American holiday as exists at present. Never has America been more prosperous than at present. While all Europe is being practically torn asunder by the ravages of war. America goes maiestically forward de- veloping her God-given resources with just enough tiacture of belligerency-th NeXi- can affair-to prevent ennui and stagnotion. Mexico is too insignificant as a country to interfere with the onward march of pros peritv in the United States, even though she do her utmost. As a nation disturber- when that nation is the United States Nexico's efforts will not be far-reaching.
 Alaska has more reason for putting heart and soul into her celebrations this year than she has ever had. And why not? Alaska is coming into her own in no uncertain way. She at last has the ear of the great father at Washington and is in line for more abundant avors than have ever before been youch- -afed her. Alaska has at last been classified and is in the list of corners, and will come more in the next ten years than during all the time which has elapsed since Russia pocketcd her seven million, two hundred thousand dollars Alaska purchase money, and winled her off eye in the deIuded be- lief that she had put one across on Uncle sam
 Locally, the islanders have never before had occasion for being more deeply steeped in the celebration spirit All our mines are working full time and new mines, as big as -or bigger-than any now in operation, are probabilities of the not distant future We have no labor troubles for the reason that there are no occasions for any Every man who wants work has it and at good wages Everybody has money and every body is happy What more can mortal ask on the eve of celebration?
