TS LIVE ON : GENT
 MEALS

BEREA, Ky, Jan. 3. - In order to prove that the high cost of living has not reached every part of the country. Berea college, in the Kentucky noun. tains. is responsible for the statement that its fourteen hundred students are fed at a cost of seven cents per meal, that they gained several tons" in weight and that the boarding hall made a net gain of $55949.
 In explaining this record President Frost. of the college, refers first to the economy of numbers, some four teen hundred students being in con stant attendance in the five depart menta. Another explanation of the seven cent meal is the fact that most of the students are accustomed to plain fare. so that they almost unani- mOusly choose to go without tea, cof. fee and butter to reduce expenses. To offset these omissions the balance ration" has been introduced on the assumption that it Is just as important for students as flor any other live stock"

robbed before having time to spend their money voluntarily. The license fee of $1,O0O has only limited the number of saloons; the licensing of them in no sense gave any protection to the public, but rather strengthened the saloons. True, the license moneys have gone into the municipal treasur- ies and have helped to pay the ex. penses of the towns - in some cases they have covered all such expenses, no taxes being levied - and the peo- pie have been slow to express a will lingness to do without this money. And the saloon men have been quick to take advantage of this situation. particularly as it affected the public schools, which at best have none too much money at their disposal.
 But the public has at last reached the point where such bribery no longer controls. They resent having their children educated on booze traffic, as it really is, and have written it's doom in their vote of the seventh; and the saloon man who reads that doom in the election returns may we'll run.

H|CH PRICES FUR "P|NkS" MOW
 OBTAIN

Prices asked for canned salmon con tinue to soar and have already reached the highest point ever known in the history of the business in the Pacific Northwest Not only are the asked prices away up. but actual sales have been made at these prices, and 1t be- gins to look as if the present levels would reach still higher attitudes, says Portland dispatch.
 P. F. Harris, of Seattle, owner of a big salmon cannery in Alaska and in terested in others. announced Satur- day while visiting the fish hatchery at Bonneville, that he had sold 5000 cases of pink tails at $1.25 This is 15 cents over the previous record, and he stated he could sell more at the same figure. The half pounds are now quoted at 75 cents. When it is consid- cred that these opened at 85 cents for pound cans, the extreme firmness of the market is readily seen. There is wonderful demand and stocks are light.
 It is asserted by MT. Harries that not to exceed 150,000 cases of salmon remain in Seattle, while, according to Senator Robert s. Farrell. of the Pill lar Rock cannery. there are today not more than 4,000 cases remaining in Portland, and these have been sold.
 Tt will be the prettiest cleanup in the history of the salmon packing bus mess" said Senator Farrell We will come into the next pack with the mar ket bare. The other day l tried to buy canned salmon in this market and was able to get only $50 cases. wanted several times this, but there was no more to be had. With prices for chums and pinks at new records, it looks as if holders were in line to reap a harvest. AS nearly as l can learn. however, no salmon is being held here"
 The next packing season will not open until May l. This is five months away and in that time probably every can unsold will have been disposed of It will be at least fortnight after the new packing season opens before pack. ing is actually done, which gives that much longer time for the small stocks remaining to be sold. Everything is decidedly favorable for tho nackars

WOMAN GOING
 TO VICTORIA TO ATTEND
 AN IMPORTANT MEETING

DOUGLAS, May 21. Yesterday morning there passed through Ju- neau and Douglas on the steamer Princess Sophia two Yukon women who are on their way to attend tho convention of the Imperial Order of Daughters of the Empire which meets in Victoria, B. C. early next week The ladies were Mrs w. l.. Phelps and Mrs. Geo. Armstrong, president and icepresident respectively of the Yukon Chapter of the order at Whitehorse.
 At both Dawson and Whitehorse chpaters of the order were founded shortly after the breaking out of the war since which time they have collected and forwarded for relief work in connection with the war nearly $100,000 Yukon having raised more money in proportion to her population than any other portion Of the British Empire.
 The money has been mostly donat- ed to the Canadian Patriotic fund, the Red Cross, Belgian and Ser bian relief funds and to providing soldiers on the front and in camps with clothing, nicknacks etc. to cheer them in their momentous and self sacrificing duties.
 The matter of contributing to the war fund in Yukon has been syste matized to such an extent that each person gives in proportion to his in come and no stacking" is tolerated Some business men have regularly given $50 a month for more than two years; others $25, $15, $10. s7.50 or whatever their incomes justify, but everybody contributes. There is no age limit and no income is so small that the recipient is exempt from contributing to the war fund.
