And the best of it is you need never
hesitate to use Resinol Soap and Resi-
Eol Ointment. There is nothing in
them to injure the tenderest surface.
Resino1 is a doctors prescription
which for over twenty years has been
used by careful physicians in treating
skin affections. They prescribe Resi-
mol freely, knowing that its soothing
healing action is brought about by
medication SO bland and gentle as to
be suited to the most delicate or irri-
tated skin-even of tiny baby.
Every druggist sells Resinol Soap and
Resinol Ointment. Samples free

There are many news items which
might be proffered the local scribe
which for some reason we have to seek
information concerning. Each Sabbath
evening some apostle makes known
the Truth but the congregation is alb
surdly small, as a consequence of the
majority knowing nothing as to the
service. In the absence of a regular
minister, it would assist many, if who
ever officiates would acquaint the COM
munity generally of the time and SUBJ
ject of their discourse, and these COL
umns are at all times available for
that purpose.
Speculation is rife concerning the
proposed Minot to Max line, and some
anxious to appear wiser than the rest
, of US, proclaim that the line will never
be constructed Time will prove that
what appears in Logan Murmurs,
while perhaps not always interesting,
is invariably true. We stated few
weeks ago, that there is every pros
pect of the Spring witnessing the pre-
liminary survey, and that the easiest
and most likely route would be along
the old Jones coulee, to connect at
Logan. The 500 built depot at our
station, to meet requirements of juno
ton traffic, and the opening of this
rich territory is inevitable. A year
from date most people will know
where Logan is.
Fay Kearfoot, who for many years
resided in our midst, is now located at
Minot. Fay came over to see old
friends recently and incidentally in
troduce a lamp which takes Rockefel-
ler's product, in exceeding small doses,
and makes pallid the electric juice
such as Burlington hays about. 1t
rivals Old Sol's brilliancy and is a
! whole lot more dependable at this
season. He took many order but could
handle more.
Mr.. Oversee, who was recently ap-
pointed cashier of the First State
bank, has already made many friends
among local patrons. He is well in
formed on all subjects affecting the
banking business, takes live interest
in our town, and will do his share to
keep Logan we'll to the fore.
Mrs. Shaw enjoyed the hospitality
of DR.. and Mrs. Erenfeld of Minot on
Wednesday and Thursday last.
The new hall, and the MaX-Minot
junction at Logan makes Sawyer feel
sadder than ever.
Elder Sparkling, of the Latter Day
Saints, was a passenger on LOG last
Sabbath day. In a recent address Mr..
Sparkling predicted that in but little
while the fame of Logan as a natural
beauty spot would be widespread. the
advent of a trolley system from Minot
linking the adjoining towns would be
enjoyed, and our district would be dot
ted with bungalows, wherein the mer-
chant princes of Minot would learn
to appreciate the inimitable charms
of nature, the blessings of fresh air!
and an environment both happy and
, healthful. All of which things we
have whispered many, many times
And remember-he had reference to
Logan; not Burlington.
The Non-Partisan Political League
contemplate holding a meeting at Lo-
gan on February at I o'clock, pro-
viding they can secure building
large enough. The Logan Hall is apt
to prove useful to ALL members of
the community after all.

To ascertain the general sentiment on the question Is the business of the committee which was appointed. It Is also understood that the com mitteemen will wait upon the man agement of the Northern Commercial company with a view of ascertain ing what that concern would do in the matter of lowering the electric light rates. in the event that prohibiting ordinance was passed For as stated by Councilman Myers. the question seems to be whether or not the property owners and tax payers wish to be burned up by gasoline lights or eaten up by cleo tries lights.
 Another matter taken up by the council was the extension of time for the tax discount After some discussion, it was voted to extend the time during which 10 per cent discount for cash will be allowed from January Is to February l. The members of the council also express ed themselves as being anxious to collect the taxes as quickly as pos sible on account of the many war rants outstanding at the present time,

City Investigates
 Gas Light Systems

Owing to the fact that a quorum of the members was not present, the regular meeting of the city council of the past week was post poned from Monday evening until Tuesday. Several matters of i'm portance to the city were discussed, among them being that of an ordi- nance providing for the abolishment of gasoline lighting systems in Fairbanks.
 The only action taken in the mat ter was the appointment by the mayor of committee of three who are to investigate the matter and report at the next council meeting. The committee named were Coun- cilmen E. H. Mack, R. R. Myers and George M. Smith.
 It is stated that many of the tax payers of the city are in favor of prohibiting the use of gasoline light ing systems. On the other hand there are many who desire to use them Dealers in the lighting par aphernalia are of the opinion that in passing an ordinance prohibiting the use of gasoline burning light sys- tens, the council would be discrim- mating against them.

 akes Bridge Over

Writing to City Clerk J. J Buck ley as the official representative of the city of Fairbanks. Col Wilds P. Richardson, president of the Alaska Road commission, signifies the commissions readiness to take over the municipal bridge across the Cinema river here. He does not state just when a bridge will be permanently constructed
 The letter, which was read at the city council meeting last Tusday night. was as follows:
 Washington, D. C., Dec. 4, 1915. From: The President of the Board ITO: MT. J. j. Buckley Municipal
 Clerk, Town of Fairbanks, Alaska. Subject: Bridge across Cinema Slough
 Dear Sir: Replying to your let ter of October 18th, relative to the transfer of the bridge across Cinema Slough at Fairbanks at the close of navigation of the present year to the Alaska road commission, have to say that there Is not in my opin- ion any formality required in the matter, except perhaps a confirma- tion of my verbal statement, which is hereby made in writing, that the board of road commissioners for Alaska agrees to relieve the town of Fairbanks from further expense for the maintenance of the bridge until such time as the board is able to complete the proposed new bridge
 "It is understood of course, that the board assumes no indebtedness which there may be against said bridge on the date of transfer.
 Respectfully,
 "WILDS P. RICHARDSON,
 Colonel of Infantry, U. s. A.
