The Leecville News says that the re-
unions by Newberry college held at
Delmar always draws the largest
crowds except those held at Little
Mountain. Speaking Of the reunion
to be held at Delmar Friday the News
says this is no doubt the most popu-
lar annual gathering held in this sec
ton and indications point to the larg-
est attendance in the history of the
reunion this year.
Men of keen foresight tell us that
this feasting at barbecues is wrong
in view of the impending shortage in
everything to eat which threatens
this country to the extent of posi-
lie famine Every hog and sheep
will be needed for the sustenance of the
army abroad and the people at home.
1t is waste to destroy this meat at
the barbecues. Eat fish, chicken and
turkey. They are good enough any
way.
The important announcement is
made in this issue of The Herald and
News that the clearance sale by Cope
land Brothers will be continued 10
August the first. The gooGs must be
sold to make room for the new fall
supply, and as they are being disposed
of rapidly and at a big bargain to
Hoover helpers and others in New
berry it will be to everybodys advan-
tage to join the ranks of buyers at
this proft-sharing store.
That negro preacher who held a
tent meeting in Newberry recently,
preaching that Saturday was the real
Sabbath, didn't tarry long after Chief
Ed Rodelsperger told him to quit. He
made some converts here, but if they
are still inclined to practice the doc
trine it will be to their downfall il
they try to carry it into effect. Chief
! Rodelsperger, backed by the citizens
of Newberry will not allow of any
working on Sunday, the Sabbath day
of our country.
Florina Gillian is one Of the num-
erous washerwomen in the city. She
had to pay a dollar in the recorder s
7 court for allowing stagnated water to
remain overtime on her premises. Al
though Health Officer Player had
warned her three times, the recorder
was light in the fine because the Of
tense was Forina's first slip-up in
this direction. She claimed that she
had put kerosene oil in the water aft
er the health officer had cautioned her,
but it seems she had turned the water
out after putting in the oil and had
caught more rain water in the barrel
, and as the first supply of oil was not
sufficient for the second supply Of
! water, which also became stagnated'
Florina was called to show cause. She
says she will do away with the bar
rel system hereafter.

BANKERS PLAN
 TERRITORIAL
 ASSOCIATION
Cooperation in Rules and Rates Sought in AL
 aska Finance

A movement is under way looking toward the organization of an flask an Bankers Association. All of the institutions approached with one ex- ception, are enthusiastically in favor of the idea.
 Among the banks that have signifi- ed their desire to join such an organi- zation are: Miners and Merchants, Ketchikan; First National and B. M. Behrends, Juneau; First Territorial, Douglas; Bank of Alaska, Skagway, Wrangell and Anchorage; First DAak of Cordova; First Bank oi ~.ldez; Seward Bank and Hartman National Seward; Bank of Anchorage.
 The idea is to promote the general welfare and usefulness of the banks of the territory, and to secure uni formity of action, together with the practical benefits to be derived from personal acquaintance and from the discussion of subjects of importance to the banking and commercial inter ests of Alaska; and especially in or der to secure the proper consideration of questions regarding the financial and commercial usages, customs and laws which affect the banking inter ests, and for their protection against loss by crime.
 The need of some such protective association is becoming more appar- ent each day to those interested, and as soon as the matter has been laid before the First National and Ameri- can banks, at Fairbanks, the Miners and Merchants bank at Iditarod, and the Alaska Banking & Safe Deposit Company and Miners and Merchants bank at Nome, and they favor the plans, an association will be formed.

He stated that the first of the week he was out in the barn and found a nest in the loft Mrs. Hen was attending to her own business on her own nest, but was forced to remove her feathered per son from her seemingly comfortable position. Farmer Bullock stated that he saw eggs. That there was no bot tom to the nest of eggs. He began to remove them, placing the eggs in his hat and after emptying his hat mum Der of times he counted sixty-four eggs, all of which came out of the nest He further alleges that he is satisfied that if he had not forced Mrs. Hen to move when he did that there would have been sixty-five eggs in the nest It pays to have laying chickens.

COST HAS NOT INCREASED

In these days of increases in the price of everything, it is gratifying to note that the genuine Foley's Honey and Tar sells at the same price as in previous years. This reliable family medicine is considered as necessary as food or clothing by thousands of persons. When one estimates the great loss to the family income sick. ness can cause, it is almost impossi- ble to compute the true worth of this splendid household remedy. Foley's Honey and Tar quickly relieves coughs, colds, croup and whooping cough.
