CHANGE IN POSTAL
SAVINGS LAWS

Larger postal savings deposits will
now be accepted at the post Office.
This is made possible by an important
amendment TO the Postal Savings Act
just approved by President Wilson. A
postal savings depositor may now have
an account amounting TO 81 900 upon
which interest will be paid. Formerly
$500 was the maximum amount he
could have 10 his credit This enlarge
ment Of postal savings facilities will
be very gratifying 10 thousands Of
depositors who have already reached
the old $500 limit and are anxious to
entrust more of their savings to Uncle
Sam. Another feature Of the amend
ment that will avoid further embar-
rassment TO the public and to postal
officials is the doing away with the
limit on amount that could be accepted
from a depositor monthly. Under the
old law only 500 could be deposited
in calendar month. The amendment
abolishes this restriction. While the
Postal Savings System has already
proved a signal success as shown by
the fact that more than half-a-million
depositors have over eighty million
dollars standing to their credit, still il
has fallen short of meeting the full
demands of the public because of the
restrictions which have now been elm
mated. Postmaster General Burleson
and Third Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral Dockery have been tireless in
their efforts to secure a modification
of the limitations and the new LIBERAL
izing legislation is particularly graft
flying to them.

The proceeds will be used to reduce
the indebtedness of the association
The present attractive building on
| Church street, is the result of great
deal of hard work of few supported
by the village and our summer friends.
To maintain it and get it out of debt
it is necessary to hold some sort of
an entertainment now and then as the
subscriptions each year are not enough
for all expenses. Again it is desired
to establish reading room for the
benft of all whether a subscriber or
not. This requires money for furnish
ings magazines, papers, and also an
extra compensation to the librarian
for the necessary extra time which has
to be given. The entertainment Of the
l4th Is the first effort of the committee
to raise funds to meet these expenses
and as we know his entire section is
not only proud of our library; but in
terested in its success we hope they
will prove their interest by buying
tickets and attending the evening OF

readers where they can secure their

will be within reach of all. Thirty

ALASKA PROGRESS.

Alaska has had it's greatest sea son of material advance in every productive and business way. Gov arnment and commercial reports in dicate that a greater number of people have gone to the northern territory than in any previous season. By American and Canadian steamships 17,000 passengers were conveyed tC the north during the first six months of the year, showing an increase in the aggregate of more than eight per cent over the same period of 1915 With the tourist trade of July and August, when it's figures are published, the seasons business is likely to show an increase of ap- proximately ten per cent over last year.
 Copper shipments this season have taken first place in the list of Al aska products and far exceeded the gold output. A large advance in gold production is likely to be noted next season through the installation of expensive machinery for the treat ment of ore. While the salmon run was not so large as that of the pre- ceding years, the total pack will contribute it's usual substantial pro portion of the annual wealth pro duction.
 With the extensive building pro gram of the government railway dur ing 1916 the territory showed great activity in every department of busi- ness and production in the fields tributary to the lines. Matanuska coal is now reaching tidewater by the government railway; construction of the government line is progress ing south from Fairbanks and north from Seward and Anchorage. Set tiers are going into the valleys and opening farms. A significant feature of the homestead filings is that Al askans are reaching as eagerly for farms as the people from the Out side. The coming season is to bring substantial agricultural population to Alaska from the States. and the greatest years business that the ter ritory has ever njoyed.-Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

And this injunction is what the American 'ederation of Labor proposes to work Igainst. evidently claiming that Ia DOT, as whole or even one labor ng man, provided he belongs to a Ibor organization. has the right tc estroy his employers property fl hat employer refuses to raise hi. ages or shorten his hours to sui i'm.

 And their prediction has proven true, in the light of recent events

Of course. he has q different name, but the man is e sentially the same Thus there was not the development in character portrayed in his later novels that his earlier work gave promise of.
 But a man cannot stand still. even

In that he was following. perhaps, what h. considered the market demanded in hat line of work.

 Moreover, there Is another serious | blunder for a writer to fall into, ant

It is his earlier works that show these chara cteristiCs, with out the crude dogma of his later work, so they are likely to be the books read the longest.

JACK LONDON.

In Jack London's death one of the most promising of the younger novelists passed away. In his ear Her work there was great promise but somehow iis later work failed to carry out that promise. in "The Sea Wolf" and "The Call of the Wild" there was energy, vitality and imagination. The work was crude no doubt, but it was good writing The latter book is one of the best log stories ever written.
 But London never got away from hat type of writing, and his later vorks are merely a development of he qualities of his earlier work. Per.
