 AMERICAN ENTRY
Associated PreSS)

LONDON. Apr. All Great Brit ain is awaiting the action of the American congress in declaring war against Germany. This is the all absorbing topic of the day, and from many officials come comments show ing how welcome will be the Am erican entrance. Colonel Winston Churchill former first lord of the admiralty, declared that America s entrance into the war was "a God given aid to struggling Christendom." :"
 The war office warns the people that in their pleasure of the con tinued successes reported from the British front in France they must not think that the end of the war is near. It declares that greater sacrifices than ever before are now necessary if the struggle is to be continued successfully.

 One thing decided upon last night was that every man caring to have anything whatever to do with the organization must sign the roll.

The proposal to allow banks capi- talized at $15O,OO0 to have $10O,OOO in deposits was also discussed. No definite decision was made, the mea- sure going over until tomorrow, when it is thought it will be disposed of
 A joint memorial was presented in the house providing schools for An chorage and Nenana, or any other railroad town having a population of 500 people, also allowing any sec ton of country having as many as fifty children between the ages of six and twenty years within a radius of forty miles to incorporate into school district, with power to levy taxes, both personal and real, for the maintenance of the schools.

 None of the successful candidate for municipal office have been intgl viewed as to their sentiments 0. finding themselves elected. Dr. Brad iv and Mrs. L. E. Gillette, the two women candidates for the council, however. expressed themselves free lv last night. And there need be no commiseration there, for both stated last night that they were extremely gratified at the showing they had made. Both were at the polls prac- ticary all day yesterday, and during the time that the ballots were being counted last night. and, judging from their attitude. their statements were expressive of their feelings in the matter.
 Tt was just matter of somebody being candidates, so we took it upon ourselves to enter the race. We feel that it was, in a way, an edu- cational campaign, and we are highly gratified at the showing we made even though we were defeated" said pr. Bradley. Mrs. Gillette echoed the statements of her companion in defeat adding, however, that they were sure that they would keep out of the trouble which all persons connected with city and school al.

SOME TOOTHSOME SALADS

Spanish red peppers and bunch of fresh parsley are the ingredients used in making this delicious and novel salad Drain the pineapple and arrange on individual plates for serving. decorate each slice with strips cut from the pimentos, and garnish with tiny sprigs of the par sley Serve with French dressing. RooUEFORT SALAD.
 Prepare crisp head lettuce and ar range on individual plates. Prepare salad dressing of a tablespoonful of vinegar to three of oil. a half tea spoonful of salt. few dashes of red pepper; doubling this portion as needed Cream a tablespoonful of roquefort cheese and add to the dress ing, beaten well to blend, with an egg beater.
 CHEESE JELLY SALAD.
 Mix half cupful of good favored cheese with a cupful of whipped cream; add salt and pepper to sea son and a teaspoonful of gelatin dis solved in three-fOurths of a Cupful of water Mold in one large or in individual molds. Cover each mold with grated cheese when it begins to harden. Serve with French dress ing to which grated cheese has been added, as we'll as a tablespoonful of catchup.
 SOUR CREAM SALAD DRESSING.
 Whip a cupful of sour cream with little lemon juice or pineapple juice for flavoring, season with salt. a little sugar and use on fruit or vegetables. When vegetables are used for the salad bit of red pep per, mustard or Worcestershire sauce may be added Sour cream may be substituted for sweet cream in any salad dressing.
 MAYoNNAlSE DRESSING.
 In making mayOnnaise often the oil will curdle the yolk. Instead of us ing another egg, let the mixture stand for few minutes and it will separate. Now with a spoon gather up some of the thick curd and drop a little at a time into clean bowl, beating with an egg beater as at first. Gradually use it all. then add, a drop at time, the rest of the separated oil. It will be as smooth as if you had used another yolk.
 In making mayonnaise for potato salad if the white of the egg is beaten stiff, then added to the dress ing, it will be found a great i'm provement and takes less mayon- naise to make the same amount of salad.

Harry Woodward Mayor Ray was elected yesterday to serve one year. while the three councilmen-elect will hold office for two years. The other three members of the Fairbanks city council were elected last year for a two-year term. Those who retire rom the council this year are Mayor George NJ. smith and Councilman Claude Kelly. Mayor-eIect Ray sery- ed on the old council as a council man. as did councjlman-elect Wilbur Consequently the only new members Of the governing body of the munici pality are Counc.lmen-elect Golden and Woodward The new council will probably be sworn into office next Tuesday night
 THE NEW MAYOR.
 Henry T. Ray the mayor-elect Of Fairbanks, is too well known in this community to need an introduction, even through the columns of the press. He ts long time resident of the city and has held many posi- tions of importance and trust among the people of Fairbanks. In fact it can be said in all truthfulness that MT. Rays record is absolutely clear regarding all of his dealings with his fellow men, the right and nothing else having at all times been his object in his daily life or in mu- nicipal or territorial politics.
 THE NEW coUNClLMEN.
 Probably no oldtimer of the north is better known than is Louis Golden, whom the people of Fairbanks yes terdav honored by giving the largest vote cast for a position where any opposition was offered. He was known from Dawson to Nome in the historical days of Alaska mining camps. He came to Fairbanks in the early days of this camp and estab- lishnd grocery store in Graehl. Several years ago he moved his es- tablishment to the Fairbanks side Of the river and is now one of Fair banks most substantial business men and therefore one of her fittest sub feets to serve on the city council

THE SCHOOL ELECTION.

Idfi9 uSud44t IIIIu lHtLhStINeS IHNolN e cd in.
 THE SCHOOL ELECTION
 The school election was held at the same time as was the city cleo ton. A. R. HeiHg was the only candidate for the office of school clerk. He succeeds Mrs. Mary II. Zimmerman. whose term of office eX- pires on April 10 The number of votes cast for Mr. Heilig was 672, twenty of the ballots being found by the judges to be blank.
 THE ELECTION PROPER.
 The counting of the last ballot cast at the city election was com pIeted few minutes after Il o'clock last night Fully one and one-half hours before that time, however, it was easy to see which way the event ual result would be, on account of the wide variance of the vote.
 After the regular ballots were all counted the judges took up sixteen which had first been passed upon as spoiled. Their second judgment however, passed one of the ballots, one upon which there had been an erasure and which had been marked again by the voter. The other fiji teen ballots were declared to be il- regular. and as such were not count cd. Most of the irregularities re. suited from the desire of the oyer ambitious voters to set their voting marks opposite more than three names on the list of council manic candidates, some voting for four and others five. On one ballot the name of Dr. Bradley had been inserted in the blank space under the heading of candidates for mayor, the voter also placing his mark op- posite her name as his choice of one of the candidates for council.
 It is generally considered that vote of 694 out of registration of 766 was an unusually good showing. The voting was regular and orderly, there being no disturbances of any kind. Nor were the election officials rushed at any time, as the voters dropped in to cast their ballots at the rate of about sixty-five per hour. The judges of the election were Ed Stier. Joe Heacock and Frank Coombs. The clerks were F. B. Boarman and W. F. Kenyon.
