Dean Jonathan Swift was the first man to discover Alaska. He called 1t the Land of Brobdingnag. In "Gul- liver's Travels" published in TIPS, two years before Vitus Boring, the Danish navigator, sailed from Serbia to dis cover Cape St. Elias, Dean Swift, in maps accompanying @ work which was 6 satire on human nature, extended the western coast line of North Amer leo to the point where Alaska later was discovered. Swift called 1t land Of giants. It has proved a land gigantic In some respects--in rivers. mountains and resources.
 Because of this fact "Gulliver's Trav- els" will be accorded the place of honor In the library of the school of mines and agriculture that Is to be estab- nshed at Fairbanks under bill in- troduced by Delegate James Wicker sham and passed by the last congress. For seven years Delegate Wickersham has been collecting Q bibliography of Alaska, which will be presented to the library as soon as 1t Is completed.
 In Swift's imagination Gulliver' left England In 17O2 for the Cape of Good Hope in & ship called the Adventure.
 The ship was driven In many direc- tions by varying storms. but finally the strong winds blew steadily from one quarter, their course being north- east. The provisions held out well. the ship was staunch, and the crew all in good health, but in the utmost dis trsss for water.
 They thought it better to hold to his course than to turn to the north which Gulliver knew would land him on the northwest coast of Great Tar tary, now known as Siberia and into the frozen sea. now known as the Arc- tic ocean.

how the British Troops Are Fed,

hSW Inc British Iroops Are fsd'
 An eye witness present with Gen. eral Headquarters of the British force says that 1t Is universally admitted that no British army yet placed in the Held has been so well fed as that of ...ay, and since 1t Is the largest force ever maintained In any one theater of operations and the problem of its supply has at times presented pecu- lar difficulties. IL may be of some in- terest to give short sketch of the system employed and to show how 1t has worked since the commencement of the war.
 The system by which the immense volume of food required for man and horse IS conveyed to the troops is in principle simple enough. The difficult ties lie In its application to the supply Of an army which Is equivalent In numbers to the population of a great city. may be constantly moving from place to place with it's goods and chat tels, horses. carts and motors, and Is frequently liable to interference from the enemy.
 During peace the reserve supplies for the whole army are maintained In the supply reserve depot. When mob- ilization becames imminent all these stores were at once transferred to the home base port that Is to say the DOT;
 ,upplies are accumulated. for snipinent overseas. Contracts were made to provide and maintain the ne- cessary articles forming the soldier : ration and ships were loaded and sent 10 the Overseas bases. At these sup ply depots and field bakeries were es- abolished. owing to the course taken by the operations in August these great accumuIations of stores had to be moved: but in. spite of the tremendous task involved in their shipment to one port after another the whole machin- cry of supply continued to work smoothly throughout all the early vic. lssitudes of the campaign.
 First Sent to Regulating Station.
 From the stores thus collected at a base food is sent up by rail to reg ulating station" From this place of assembly and distribution trains, each made up of trucks carrying the right quired, are dispatched to the rail heads which are the stations nearest to the troops to which 1t Is possible to work the railway.
