The club Is trying to get teams from all parts of Alaska and expects entries from Iditarod, Nu- lato, Fort Gibbon. Lamont's mail team and two or three from Ruby.

 BERLIN, Jan. 24.-It Is daily be- coming more evident that the armis- tice asked by King Nicholas was sIm- ply ruse to allow the Montenegrins time to rally their scattered forces and prepare for further resIstsnce. Nothing official has been given out concerning the action of the Montene- grins but most of the Berlin newspa- pers are discussing editorially the re- port that has gained circulation that the Montenegrin peace was simply a ruse to obtain time to improve their military position. Judging from sub sequent occurrences the Montenegrins had no intention of ceasing their mill itary activities and are reported to be offering the most severe resistence to the Austrian forces southeast of Get. tinjs.

FRIDAY DECEMBER 8, 1916.
ARE YOU A MOLLYCoDDLE?

Rain fell all day Sunday. 1t was
certainly dreary and so dark that it
was impossible TO read with any COM
fort except by artificial light. No en-
gagements had been made in advance
for the day so we lowered around the
CRATE fire and were thankful that we
weren,t compelled to go out.
But along about midafternoon, 1.-THE
day of rest" began to grow wearisome.
We chafed under restraint. We pant
ed for more fresh air than came thr-
ough the occasionally opened doors
and windows. BY five O'Clock con-
finement "got on our nerves. OBJ
viously our legs needed stretching.
So we dragged CUB some old clothes,
got into them, and went out to face
the weather The first feeling of chill
and dread evaporated before we'd
walked a block. Our spirits rose
sharply with our release. We began
to feel somewhat superior to the
ollycoddles" who were hugging
the warm spots indoors. When we
came back we were wet but greatly
exhilarated. A brisk rub with a
coarse towel and a change to dry cloth
es removed the last of the gloom.
What commonplace experience
that is 10 tell about here. And yet 1t is
upon just such common occurrences,
more than it is upon magic. that good
physical and mental health depends.
That commonplace experience recalled
the thought on how completely most
of US are possessed by the things we
supposedly own.
Our clothes enslave US when they
ought to contribute to our comfort.
1t isn't we that shrink from rain, SO
much asst is our clothes. Our linen
collars and velvet hats which we work
badges of our emanicipationYfrom the
state of being poor folks are even
more the mark ofgsnothee form of
Biting want and bread hunger are
responsible for disease and deathA but
l believe more people die from eating
things they don't need than do from
going without foed. And more die
from coddling themselves for the sake
of saving their clothes than do from
exposure from an insufficient amount
of covering.
Think it over, and if you find your
self being enslaved by the things you
own and the luXnries that soften you
and break down your physical man
hood and womanhood, break the
chains before they become too tightly
welded to be broken.

BACK TO THE LAND.

1t is inevitable that the high cost
of living will drive tens of thousands
of men back to the farm.
The city has been the dream, the mag
net of the rural population. Life on
the farm has been considered drudgery
from which man should escape if pos
sible. The city with it's ease, it's lux
ury, its color, its opportunities-that
was the life.
And now the whole situation is re-
versed.
The lights, the glitter, the crowds
pale in Importance with the cost of
city living The city holds little of
allurement, little opportunity when
bread and meat and clothes take every
dollar man can earn. The profit now
is on the farm. The humble things
the hogs, the corn, the poultry, the
cabbage, the COW have the golden
suggestion, worth they never had
before. The substantial things of life
now count for more in thought and in
value than the froth and the frivol.
1t would be magnificent if a back to
the land NOV ement were based on a
sound foundation The day of farm
drudgery is passing. The telephone.
the rural free delivery, the automobile
are wiping out the loneliness of farm
life, kessening the labor, Frightening
the outlook. They are the harbingers
of still better things. 1t is not a dis
tant day when machine power vii
take the place of muscle power on the
farm; when farming will be done on
a manufacturing basis.
In our farm methods we have been
crude, in our marketing methods we
have been worse. A back to the land
movement that means nothing more
than a continuation of the old system,
or lack of system, will be little value
to the nation or those who take part in
it. A back to the land movement that
ushers in order, regularity, common
sense, efficiency will mark an epoch
in the nations history New YORK
