BRITISH SOLDIERS USE TOOTH BRUSHES TO
 POLISH THEIR BUTTONS

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-Dr. Sam uel Hopkins, just returned from service in France, says the teeth of British soldiers are a horrible shock eto America dentists. Few of them lse tooth brushes except in polishing their button. Business of hospitals is to get men back into trenches as quickly as possible. Therefore he says dentists of common garden variety are very important members of any hospital staff and their ju- dicious distribution will greatly in- crease the efficiency of our allied armies.

MARINE INSURANCE.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-New York shipping men say that reduction from 6 F to 5 per cent. in marine insurance rates would make little difference to American owners, be- cause the government will take over all American coastwise ships. Un- der new conditions government would follow exemaple if Interna- tional Mercantile Marine Co.,, it was said, and do greater part of in- suring of ships by placing money in reserve fund that would other wise be paid over to insurance com panies in premiums.

Movement Started to Post pone Operation of the Statute Until After
 the War.
cANVASSING SENTIMENT
Commercial AsSoCiat i 0 n to Ascertain What People Want in
 Premises.

A movement has been started in Juneau to secure the suspension of the 8-hour law during the period of the war. The matter was submitted to the Juneau Commercial Associa- ton last night, and a committee se- lected to interview merchants and others concerned in order to ascer- tain public sentiment on the ques- ton.
 The 8-hour law was passed by the last legislature, and it provides that it shall become operative Janu- lry 1, 1918, unless suspended by the Governor, at the request of the Secretary of the Interior or the council of National Defense, during the period of the war. The Gov ,rnor has no power to take the in itiative in the matter, neither can le act upon petition of the people
 The law is general in it's charac- CT, and applies to those in all lines of work who labor for wages or for diary, and to officers and sharehold- ITS of corporations and members of partnerships. It is actually pro- hibitive in it's character, and does not permit the employee to work 1T he desires to do so or not, eX- ,ept where grave emergency eX- sts involving the loss of life or de- ;truction of property.
 Same Ahcurd provicion Attorney H. l.. Faulkner, in said:
 "The statement that the 8-hour nv became effective November 1st i IS erroneous. That was provis- | on in the bill when it was intro l iuced, but it was amended before ts passage and approval so that it provides for it's becoming effective January 1, 1918.
 That the law is absurd is ad- nitted by all who have read it, one If it's provisions being that no member of a partnership can work more than eight hours in any one day. In other words, no man, if 'e has partner, can work for himself more than eight hours a l lay without being liable to pay a fine of $500 and serve six months in jail.
 If two lawyers are in a partner ship and they are trying an import mt case in court, and are obliged 70 be in court just eight hours dur 'ng the day, neither of them can 70 to the office at night to prepare ! for the next day without subject 'ng himself, to heavy fine and jai -entence. The same holds true oi physicians who are partners. They cannot work more than eight hours day unless some ones life is in imminent danger
 "Other provisions of the law arc equally ridiculous and impossible.
 Even in normal times the law is not practicable, and now when we are all obliged to sped up in III our activities and to put forth 'lf our efforts to keep all our in dustries going in the production oi % many necessaries. the enforce ment of this law would be tragic.
 People Should Act.
 No time should be lost in bring. ing this matter to the attention oi the Council of National Defense Every odge,.-association and organ ization in Alaska should request the Council or the Secretary of the interior to take action. I would suggest that it would be very ap- propriate for the< Bar Association and the Food Conservation Organi. zation to take the 1ead.''

Because his father burned a marsh
near his home, the small son of the
family decided he would like to have
a marsh all his own to play with. So
he set fire to the haymow and before
it was extinguished it caused damage
amounting to about $4,000. The farm
was the VIM. Cox farm and is near
Clearwater.

County Superintendent Boerger who is
gathering a fund to erect rural

grounds in Sank Centre.
A small bag of silver, gold watch
chain, a revolver and some cartridges
were found near Sank Rapids this
week. 1t is believed that this loot
was discarded after a safe robbery
some time ago either at the bank in
Sartell or at Rices. This theory is
grounded on the fact that the money
is battered, presumably from the ex-
plosion in opening the safe and the
robbers were afraid to use the money
for fear of being apprehended.
Maurice Johnson, nine-year-old
boy living near Buffalo, was shot a
short time ago while out with his
brother, who was hunting gophers.
The older boy had taken aim and was
just firing when the little fellow came
up behind him and stumbled in front
of the gun. The bullet entered the left
side of the head and came out about
two inches from where it entered. The
boy will live.
