The atmosphere, particularly along the waterfront seems charged with energy. All contributing towards making of Ketchikan a progressive, busy city.
 The Sunny Point Packing company that erect ed one-line, half-pound cannery late last season ---more as an experiment than anything else; this year has torn down the structure and IS now erecting a two-story, two-line cannery instead A true indicator of the tendency of the business men to make Ketchikan lively commercial and manufacturing center.

IMITATION

It is a tribute to the excellence of our laudering which we fully ap- preciate. But why not have the origi- nal? Send us your washables and you won't have to say they are as perfect as ours. The work will be ours and the real thing.

we have special grate coal which you will do well to use. It burns evenly and with a glow that brings many pictures to the mind of the behclder. It is a splendid heat producer, too.
 Seated before a grate fire, fed with our coal, there is a charm and com fort that only a grate fire can create.

The most interesting Of the earlier
habitations of. man are the curious
lake dwellings Of the age Of bronze.
These were usually built on piles sunk
into the bottom Of lakes, some distance
from the shore. Large trees were

mud by mallets used in the hands Of
the builders, who worked from q raft.

and secreted themselves in the
basement. When Mrs. Fites sue
ceeded in finding them, she vas
informed that the prank was play
ed in honor of her birthday, The
remainder of the period was spent
in guessing games and getting a.
way with a big feed Of cakes.
cookies, candies and other good
things.
The attendance Of pupils who
are far below school age should be
discouraged. The primary and In.
termediate teachers have plenty Of
work to keep them busy without

It Pays.

One mysterious phase of the
war stands out prominently; name
w that the German government is
very successful in bribing or buy
ing influential men in the Allied
countries. The instance of the
arch-traitor of Russia, Soukhom-
iinoff, can here be cited. When
in the fall of 1914 the Russian ar
my invaded eastern Prussia and
was marching on to Berlin, all at
once, as by some mysterious pow
or, the millions of Russian fight
ers were pressed back by inferior
forces of the Kaiser and over a
million of them we're killed in.the
region of the Mazurian lakes.
Later, when again the Russian
forces overran Galecia and were
marching on to Vienna thru the
Carpathian passes, a mysterious
force began to assert itself and
the valorous Russian muzhiks be-
gan to retreat. That mysterious
and sinister power behind this ig
nOminious retreat was Sturmer,
another arch traitor Of Russia.
Both Soukhomlinof aud Sturnier.
were in. the pay of Germany and
failed to send ammunition, food
aud other supplies to the army
when victory and an end to the
war were near. We repeat: Had
it not been for these men, the war
would have long been ended. In
France today there is an investiga
tion, the so-called Bolo Pasha af-
fair. and Tunnel, member of the
French chamber of deputies, is
under suspicion. It seems that
German money had spoken in Rus
sic aud France; ia England there
appears to be an Odium from the
same source, and last, but not
least, right in this country the
German mark seems to speak thru
the dirty mouths and actions of
some of our heretofore Influential
men, as we'll as 10 every Allied
country. And it seems to pay.
We do not know what Soukhom.
linof and Sturmer received for
their dirty work from Germany,
over a million Russian men lost
their lives, besides the wounded
and crippled, which means that
there we're over a million and a
half men put out Of the fight the
first whack. not by an honorable
ifght with arms, but by treschery
- and Germany scored a very
fine bargain.
So far, we have not heard of the
Allies bribing or buying any in
duential German. Is it possible
they will not use such low and dir
ty mearns; or having tried, failed9
If the latter is the case, does il
mean that Germany has no trail
tors aud the people stand as one
man behind, or in front of, their
Kaiser9 Or having failed IN Ger
many, did we hear of the Allies
bribing or buying big men 10 Aus
tris or even Turkey3 Germany
has proved that it pays to do this
and has spent meney iavishly on
such men with good results for
Germany. War is just exactly
what Gen. Sherman said it was;
and since everything is fair in
war ask the Huns Of Germany,
why could not the Allies follow
Che old Jewish maxim: An eye for
an eve, a tooth for a tooth. 1t is
surely a deplorable condition
when Germany can buy big"
men in the enemies lands and ST.
far her big men are, like Gaze
sars wife, above suspicion.
