Beauty is Required
In Construction of
The Modern Auto

In any line OF artistic endeavor it
has been said that everything is a
compromise; the ideal or aim OF the
artist must be made to conform with
other conditions, and this applies to
the beautiful models of automobiles
now being shown at the big show, as
well as to painted masterpieces. The
face of Madonna would not appear
to good advantage, no matter how
we'll it were portrayed, were it not &C
companed by a correct background.
A low, rakish chassis equipped with a
body of the Victoria type would be
incongruous, in spite OF any high
ideals of its designer.
To become acquainted with the ar
tistic work in connection with the
building of motor car of beauty and
distinction one should make trip
through such factory as that of the
Peerless Motor Car company OF
Cleveland, o., long a leader in beau
tiful automobile offerings. There he
would discover the almost countless
items of labor and skill which go into
the making of that type Of car.
1t is likely that he would first be
attracted by the models built in clay.
The average layman has very little
use for intricate lines of blue print
he wants to see something more
substantial. After observing the clay
models he will find similar models
constructed on boards, but these are
by no means the finished product.
They are only samples Of what may
be expected, when the body lines are
finally determined upon. There is
much tearing down and remodeling
before the perfect car is produced.

FARMERS KEEPING
AUTO PLANTS BUSY
No Longer Look On the Horse
less Carriage with Disfa-
vor, but Buy.
GREAT HELP TO THE ROADS

The demand for automobiles that
has kept many of the big motor car
plants OF this country working day
and night is attributed largely to the
prevailing prosperity of the American
farmer. The men of the soil no
longer leok upon the horseless car
rage with disfavor as was the case in
the early days of the industry. On
the contrary, they are buying cars in
even greater numbers than their
cousins in the cities.
Farmers have not only come to
realize that they are able to enjoy the
better things OF life just as well as
the men of the city. but they demand
them,' says John N. Willis, presi-
dent of the WHY'S Overland company,
who is attending the automobile show
at the Grand Central Palace. Motor
cars as considered indispensable by
the prosperous class of farmers. They
have become rural necessity"
Half Go to Farmers.
'Of the thousands of cars built at
the Overland plant each year, more
than half the number is sold to peo-
pie living in farming districts. Since
July our dealers i'll the northwest
and middle west have practically
doubled the number Of. sales made
during the same period last season.

Jack Bate" is name to conjure

The vice president and chief engineer
of the Mitchell Motors company OF
Racine, Wis., has so many patents to

fancies that he is always stuck over

pouring over some problem to make
an auto engine do things it never did

Light Weight Autos T.
Attract at the Show

A point that has probably been
raised in many peoples minds, after
seeing the exhibits at the automobile
show, is why it is necessary for a
vehicle, which, for instance, carries
five passengers equivalent to load
of $50 pounds), to weigh in great
many cases from 5000 to 5000 pounds.
1t is significant that oaly a few
months ago a widely known automo-
bile engineer raised the same ques-

ton in discussion OF weight Motor
cycles and buggies," he pointed out,
weigh very little more than their
maximum loads. When will we get
automobiles more closely approaching
this ratio' Other vehicles went
through this improvement from heavy
to light with great gain. There is
no reason why the same transforma-
ton is not applicable to automo-
biles."
Probably a great number OF auto
mobile show visitors recall state
ments ON the part of statesmen that
this or that car is lighter this year
than last year. This would seem to
point to the growing appreciation of
the possibilities which are involved
in the lightweight automobile.

The United States Senate
showed unmistakable evidence
of its patriotism last week when
it prssed the anti-spying bills by
a vote of so to 10.
This bill contains several
strong provisions among which
are severe penalties for anyone
who attempts to make drawings
or illustrations of our fortifica
tions, and other defenses, with
out permit from the government.
The penalty is 20 years imprison
ment in time of peace, and life
imprisonment In time of war.
1t also gives the President auth
ority to suppress any newspaper
published in this country. in the
interest of foreign government
We have several venomous ones
over here. The bill contains a
number of good provisions, and
it hits the copperheads hard who
would endeavor to violate the
neutrality of this country in the
interest," of a foreign country.

state was one of the ten and the

The act OF the paper trust In
consenting to the government
fixing prices, is the first step in
the direction which is verylikely
to be followed~by many others.
There is a strong feeling in Con-
gress and throughout the country
that a law should be passed auth
orizing the government to fix
the prices of food and other ne
cessities of life. For instance
the farmers sold their potatoes
last fall at one dollar and $l.25
per bushel. They have been
bought up by the spectators
who are now selling them at
$500 per bushel wholesale.
Other vegetables have Jared simi
larly. The government should
step in and fix the price of say,
50 90 per bushel as the maximum
price for potatoes and if anyone
sells them above that price then
confiscate the goods, the same as
they do in France and Germany
and other places where the spec
ulators are expressing the poor
severely.

A MOST EXCELLENT
 EXAMINATION PAPER
BY A PUPIL OF THE WRANGELL
 PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Edith Horghein, Aged 13, Writes a Creditable Paper on the
 Civil War.

Give the remote and immediate causes of the Civil War.
 I. The remote cause of the Civil War was the spreading of slavery into the territories.
 ?. The immediate cause of the Civil War was the secession of the Southern states.
 II.
 Why did South Carolina secede? South Carolina seeded because she thought that the election of Lincoln would mean the abolition of slavery.
 Give two results of the attack on Fort Sumpter.
 The two important results of the attack on Fort Sumpter were:
 I. Lincoln s call for seventy-hve thousand volunteers, for a short time.
 2. Virginia, North Carolina. Tennessee, and Arkansas seeded from the Union.
 ".
 What is the importance of the first battle of Bull Run?
 The first battle of Bull Run showed the people in the North and South that a great war was at hand, and they began making pre- parations tor 1t.
 V.
 Name the campaigns of the war. The campaigns of the War were: I. Eastern Campaign.
 ?. Western Campaign.
 3. Campaign of 1S64-1S65.
 VI.
 Discuss the campaign in the East up to the battle of Gettysburg.
 The Union army under the con- mand of General Mcclellan at tempted to capture Richmond, the capital of the Confederacy. Lee ordered Stonewall Jackson to threaten the capture of the city of Washington, so that the national government would call Mcclellan with his army back to Washington to protect that city. Mcclellan did this and so the first attempt to capture Richmond ended in fail ure. As soon as Lee got rid of Mcclellan he marched north and Jolned forces with Jackson. and this army met the Union army under General Pope at the sec ond battle of Bull Run, and the Union Army was defeated. Lee then marched into Maryland for the purpose of invading the north. He met the Union army under Mcclellan at Antietam, and at this battle the Union army was agaln defeated.
 Lee then retreated into Virginia and built Notifications near Fred ericksburg. Burnside, who was now in command of the Union ar my, attacked Lee at this strong fertilization and Burnside was de- feated Thus the attempt to cap- ture Richmond and invade the south ended in a complete failure. General Hooker was then placed in Command of the Army of the Po- tomac and he attacked Lee at Charlottesville, near Fredericks- burg, hut was defeated. Lee then marched north and met General Meade, in command of the Union army, at Gettysburg.

THE, DANISH WEST INDIES
lCrowded out last week.

According to todav's dispatches the ownership of the Danish West Indies on yesterday passed from Denmark to the United States. The purchase of the Danish West Indies is of particular interest to Alaskans for the reason that Alas ka was acquired from a foreign na- ton little less than fifty years ago.
 Our proposition to buy the Dan ish West Indies was referred to a vote of the people of Denmark. The vote was taken and was an assent to our proposal. The de- tails oi the purchase were soon a, ranged and on yesterday the little group of islands lying to the south of Porto Rico and controlling in a measure the Eastern entrance to the Carribcan Sea. became the property of the United States.
 The price We are paying is eX- horbitant when the size of the is- lands and their productivity al lone are considered. But we are buy ing them as naval stations from which We can in the future dictate the control of the Panama canal. These danger points fit very nice ly into our plan of national de. fense. They are to be our out posts, Our first naval firing line as it were, to hold at bay any intrud- CTS having the Panama canal as their objective.
 It Is looking far ahead to buy the islands for this purpose. but 1t is the business of governments to look ahead, the purpose ot true diplomacy.
 The first act of this government in its new possession will no doubt be to fortify the harbors, making them danger points to hostile out siders. and guardians of our peace. If this Is not done then the S25.- ooo,oo purchase money will have been spent in Vain.

Duty of Medical Men to Teach Public Meth ods of Disease
 Prevention
 Dr. CHARLES H. MAYO. Of Rochester, Minn., President of the American Medical Association

w when medical textbooks
 must be rewritten, when all the great diseases of the world are controllable to the extent that their etiology or origin and cause are known.
 l believe that We medical men quite fail to do our duty in not causing the known METHODS OF PREVENTING DISEASE TO BE CARRIED OUT BY AMERICAN COMMUNITIES.
 More than eight hundred thou sand people died last year of pre- ventable disease, and the lack of education of the public which led to that condition can be laid to the lack of effective effort on the part of the medical profession.
 IT IS OUR FAULT WHEN WE HAVE NOT lNTERcEDED IN BE- HALF OF THE PEOPLE AND ED. UcATED THEM TO THE NEED OF PREVENTIVE MEASURES.

2.The Union forces were fight ing for the abolition of slavery the last two years of the war.
 TX. X Which was the greatest battle of the war?
 The battle of Gettysburg was considered the greatest battle ot the Civil War.
 Contrast the campaign in the East with that of the West in the early part of the war.
 The campaign in the West was far different from that in the East. In the West the Union armies won victory after victory and secured control of the Mississippi river from its source to it's mouth, but in the East the Union armies were defeated time after time and did not succeed in invading the South and the capture of Richmond, al- though they did prevent the South from invading the North.
 XI.
 Name the two most important battles in the West and the gener- alS.,
 I. Battle of New Orleans-Gen- eral Butler and Admiral Farragut on the North and General Johnston on the South.
 ?. Battle of Vicksburg-General Grant on the North and General Pem berton on the South.
 XII.
 What ended the war? Give re- suits.
 The surrender of Lee at Appo- matox Court House. Virginia, end- ed the war.
 The results of the war were: I. Destruction of slavery. 2. Industrial development in the South.
 ,. Enfranchisement of the ne- groes.
 4. Did away with state sover- eighty.
 5. Placed the Constitution as the national law.
 6. Wooden war boats were put out of date.

THE close of the war in Europe

THE close of the war in Europe
 | is bound to bring an indus
 trial crisis in America, espe- cially in New York. It will not nee essarily mean a collapse of industry. The demands of peace may be even greater than the demands of war, and American manufacturers may be swamped with orders. But it is sure to mean temporary unemploy- ment on a staggering scale, how temporary and how staggering de- pending upon THE FORESIGHT OF THE PEOPLE IN MAIN TANNING AND EXTENDING THE FACILITIES FOR LABOR ADJUSTMENTS.
 I am not worrying about wheth- CT the city ought to accept respon- sibility for unemployment. It has to. It has to accept either the re- sponsibility or the results.
