AN INDICTMENT
 TO ECONOMIZE
INFORMATION ABOUT UNITED STATES POSTAL SAVING
 SYSTEM.

The United States Government accepts interest-bearing postal sav- ; ings deposits from the public and guarantees to repay them on de- mand.
 Any person 10 years old or over may open postal savings account in his or her name by depositing one or more dollars in post office authorized to accept savings de- posits. The account of a married woman is free from any control or interference by her husband. Post office officials are forbidden to dis close to any person except the de- positor the amount of any deposits
 Deposits may be made as ire quently as desired, but a person can not deposit more than $1OO in any month or have more than S500 to his credit.
 A person desiring to open a post al savings account should visit the post office in person, where full in structions will be given. If for any good reason he can not visit the office a representative may be sent who will be instructed how to pro- ceed.
 Postal savings accounts may also be opened by mail. This import ant extension of the service which went into operation on July l, 1915. has the practical effect of bringing postal savings facilities within the reach of every person in the United States. A person residing at a post office not authorized to accept postal savings deposits may now open an account by applying to his local postmaster who will in struct him how to proceed. After an account has, been opened de- posits may be made either in per son, or representative, by money order, or by registered mail if the money order service is not avail able.
 Postal savings deposits are ac- knowledged by postal savings cer- tifcates which are made out in the name of the depositor and serve as receipts. These certificates are not salable or transferable. If cer- tifcates are lost, stolen. or destroy ed, new certificates may be issued.
 A depositor may at any time withdraw all or any part of his postal savings upon demand, to- gether with any interest due him. from the post office where the de- posits were made. He may also make withdrawals by mail or thru a representative.
 Interest at the rate of 2 per cent a year will be paid on the amount represented by each postal savings certificate; interest to be- gin on the 1st day of the month next following the day on which the certificate is issued and to be- come due and payable at the ex- riration of each full year there after as long as the money re- mains on deposit. No interest will be paid for a fraction of a year.
 Amounts less than s1 may be saved by purchasing postal savings cards and postal savings stamps at 10 cents each. A savings card with nine postal savings stamps will be

SURVIVOR BELIEVES
 TORPEDO HIT SUSSEX
E. MARSHAL GIVES OUT THE STORY OF THE SINKING
 OF LINER.

LONDON, March SOL have not he slightest doubt that the Sus- sex was torpedoed, although per sonally I did not see the submarine or the wake of torpedo. l base my statement on the fact that heard one of the officers of the Sussex tell a man aboard that he saw the torpedo. The quartermast- CT, who was on the bridge with the captain, also told friend of mine.
 The captain and others on the bridge saw the wake of the ap- preaching torpedo and instantly al- tered the steamers course in an effort to escape it.
 l was in the smoking room when the vessel was struck. The impact was so severe that a number of persons were thrown on the floor l hurried out on deck. The sun was shining and the sea was fairly smooth.
 What struck me was the almost uncanny calm among the passengers and crew The stories of any panic are untrue. There was no wild scramble for boats. Captain Mouf- fett was on the bridge.
 The sight which met my gaze was extraordinary. The explosion had raised tons of water which fell like an avalanche on .. the decks Ihis made any movement difficult. Crowds gathered around the boats. managed to make my way for ward and found the front of the boat literally blown away with the foremast gone.
 The captain on the bridge gave ms orders calmly, being supported by the rest of the officers. Present. ly the first boat was lowered with rush. For it some men slid down the ropes, while some women iump- ed into the boats and I saw some children thrown into it.
 Although overcrowded it got away safely. I noticed, however. it was dangerously full and the oc- cupants seemed to have lost their heads. The next minute the boat eapsized. How many occupants were drowned, I cannot say but cer- talnly large number.
 l witnessed many struggles in tho water, some of which ended in death.
 Other boats had been launched and presently two boats got clear away, but later returned to the Sussex when it was seen that she still foated, while the prospects of the smaller boats looked black
 Our wireless aerials went over board with the mast at the shock but later were temporarily rigged and distress signals were sent out
 Just then 1 noticed what looked like hundreds of yards of white cloth floating on the water. I don't know what 1t was but believe It was probably part of the con- tents of the torpedo that struck the boat.

DO IT NOW, SAID
 MR. SEWARD
HOLLY" OF 1867 HAS BECOME
 TREASURE BOX OF 1916.
(By J. J. Underwood in Seattle Times of March 30.)

Forty-nine years ago today, Will fam H. Seward, secretary of state under President Lincoln, originated the Do It Now" idea that in re- cent years has been placarded in hundreds. of business offices in the country.
 Stewards predilection to "Do It , Now" resulted in one of the best real estate deals in the worlds his tory. It gave to this nation the territory of Alaska at cost of s7,20O,OO0
 Since that time Alaska has sent into the United States metals, furs. fish and other products valued at s5Se,5 ,O00, and it has paid to the government itself more than $10,- oo0,OO0 in revenue from fur seals alone. Today Alaska's worth is es- timated, not in millions, but in bil- lions.
 On the afternoon of March 29, 1887, Baron Stoekl, Russian ambas- sador, waving a eablegram at Sew ard, said:
 Tomorrow We can make treaty for the transfer of Russian Amer. Ca to the United States"
 'No; let's do it now," answered Secretary of State Seward. Before midnight the details of the treaty had been drawn. It was signed at o'clock the following morning and a few days later it was presented to the Senate for ratification
 The real fight for Alaska did not come till the following May, when the bill appropriating the money came before the House of Representatives. If there was any thing derogatory that some of the representatives didn't say about Stewards Ice Chest" 1t was some thing of which they did not think. But the appropriation was made.
 The treaty was proclaimed by the President June 20, 1867. The sum- mer was spent in arranging details of the transfer and the Stars and Stripes finally replaced the Russian flag at Archangel, now Sitka, on October Is, 1867.
 More than s30,000 worth of cabels were sent in conducting the nego- tiations, and Russia refused to pay her share of it. The diplomats of the respective countries wrote each other polite notes for several months, but finally the cable com pany reduced the bill and the Unit ed States paid all of it.
 Few who lived at the time of the cession of the territory to the Unit ed States had the remotest idea that Alaska would have the slightest val uc, and yet, commercially, 1t is to- day the richest country in the world, figured per capita.
 To commemorate the forty-ninth anniversary of the signing of the treaty by the representatives of the two countries, James Wickersham. delegate to Congress from Alaska, today introduced in Congress a bill granting statehood to the territory. An effort will be made to have the bill passed before the fftieth ami versary of the raising of the Ameri- can flag in Alaska comes around.

I looking around he saw many people,
stupefied with cold. canoes, fishing
tackles and many other things that
had been engulfed IN the fatal vor-
tex. Whaiama the eagle, was there,
cold and bedraggled, sorry spectacle
for the god of the air Coyote told
all the people to gather at the fire
and warm themselves. To the eagle
he said, II want YOU, wnen l tell
you, to take this canoe in your beak
and fly away to a high mountain and
rescue these people"
Coyote looked up and saw the
great heart of the monster beating
and throbing against her ribs He
had along five stone knives. He took
one and sawed away at the heart
strings, but the knife broke, He then
tried another and it broke. He made
little progress with each one and
all the time the monster was grow
ing weaker, Just as the last knife
broke the monster died
Whaiama seized rhe canoe in his
beak, flew out of the monsters stom-
ach, and bore the people to a high
mountain. Coyote rushed out after
the eagle and, reaching the shore,
pronounced a curse upon the despoil-
ed river goddess Your career as a
destroyer is ended" he said you
can never swallow up and kill so
many people again. You may remain
and frighten people and occasionally

HubmobiIe Shows
-Four Cylinders Enough

They see the Hupmobile take
hills on high, and go through
sand and mud on high, when
cars with more cylinders have
failed to do the same.
That is why the Hupmobile every
where is winning preference
over multi-cylinder cars.
1t is showing that with Hupmo-
bile construction, more than
four cylinders are unnecessary
to get every essential of per-
formance.
1t is demonstrating not only re-
markable hill-climbing and
mud-plugging ability; but it is
showing fast high-gear pick
up, quick get away, and amaz-
ing flexibility, in the cities.
