SOMETHING WE CAN DO

There appears to be hardly anything of military nature 5hat we eaa do here to help the country in this present crisis. aside from few men who may be called to the front. However if We feel so inclined. there are many other ways We can help. From reliable reports We know what the European countries have suffered and are sill suffering for lack ot food.

POPULAR IDEA-APPARENTLY

Speaking of keeping the dogs off the streets the other day, brought out many complimentary remarks. Everybody favors the idea and have promised to help the movement along; and the chances are that the Council will be asked to take the matter up And we don't know but what the council should.
 If it is lawful for one community to keep dogs of the streets, we see no reason why it should not be lawful for the people of Ketchikan to do the saSle. We believe that an ordinance could be enacted covering the point. enforced and Incidentally rid the streets of the biggest nuisance that town is subject to, unless it be herd of cattle with bells on.

 Already there is a well marked movement to that end in many small towns throughout the States It has been done in some. The result has been found saving of expense and the in- crease of power. One of the most notable ex- amples of the application of the principle is Bis bee. Arizona, where they had ten or twelve churches which they combined into one big one and called it Union Church.

Too Many LOophOlcs.

Among many lcopholes in the pres
ent laws, Mr. Towns pointed out that
a drug -taker or any person purporting
TO be a drug-taker can at present have
just as many physicians prescribing
"A narcotic for him as he may see fit
TO have, and he may demand just as
much of the drug as he chooses to
take.
The doctor docs not have to find
ont whether or not the patient Is a
confirmed drug-taker: he can take
the mans word for it and prescribe
Just what the patient asks for. \
few such patients could practically
corner almost the entire habit-form-
ing drug market and, if they wanted
70 do SO, could establish themselves
in the habit forming drug business"
After pointing out the extent to
which many so-called patent mcdi-
cines and "proprietaries" are rospon-
sble for the growth of drug addic-
tion, Mr.. Towns suggested that one

OKLAHOMA ROAD MATERIALS S

According TO G. w shannon, di-
rector of the oklahoma geological

dance Of road building material at
frequent intervals thruout the state
that the building of good roads in
this state IL comparatively an easy

cent good roads week meeting at the
university, Mr.. Shannon said that
"Oklahoma can have Il better system
of roads at less cost than any other
state IN the union" Abundance of
excellent materials within easy dis
lance OF the roads to be built make
this possible.
by using Il map, Mr. shannon

For years. those who have con
sisteutly advocated the building of
better country roads have main
tanned that this state has the nat
ural materials In plenty with which
TO construct good roads and that II
was not necessary To resort TO the
more expensive methods i'm order TO
have as good, If not better roads
than any other western state. Now
that road building is being brought
so prominently before the public
mind, this situation is shown to be
true.
BY first locating their materials,

Il. Towns of New York, an authority
on antidrug legislation, urges that
congress empower President Wilson To
appoint committee to investigate
the whole subject OF federal RESPONSE

twenty-page pamphlet to "the infor-

clares that the findings of such a fed
cral committee would help the vari-
Gus states to arrive at a uniform So
luton of the drug problem. and
would establish legislative. medi-
cal and sociological precedent that
would give this country for the first
time the primacy 1t ought to have in
asking other countries to join with
us once and for all in terminating
this evil"

Mr. Towns. that not more than 10
per cent of those affiliated with the
drug habit are entitled To- use drugs

ability, We are sacrificing 80 per
cent of those who could be well and
